4 December 2020, Highbury Fields, London : Activists commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first LGBT+ demo in Britain. This was a demonstration led by the Gay Liberation Front (GLF) against unjust laws and police misconduct that took place in Highbury Fields. Tonight people gathered to commemorate the richness of LGBT+ history, agitate for more queer anger, to celebrate and to highlight the ongoing struggle for total freedom for all. Many spoke at this commemoration of sexual freedom, in celebration of those who were there 50 years ago, and the next generation of young activists responding to the intersectional challenges faced by queer people today. LGBT+ hate crimes and injustice are on the rise all over the world. Speakers included John Robert Lloyd (GLF), Ted Brown (GLF), Terry Stacy (former leader of Islington Council), Micky Mixture (GLF), Stephanie, Ejel Khan (Muslim LGBT Network), Jarek Kubiak, Nettie Pollard (GLF) and MC Dani Singer.
