Only in 1987 did Eastenders air a gay couple kissing to which people COMPLAINED and viewed it as inappropriate and the Sun ran a headline of “EastBenders”, whilst we have progressed from this let’s not forget being LGBTQ+ is still frowned upon and illegal in many countries!

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH FROM QUB PhilSoc! Aside from lots of brands changing their logos rainbow and selling rainbow merch let’s appreciate and reflect on the prejudice and discrimination the LGBTQ+ community has had to fight over the years. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

It is our hope that the inclusion of women and minorities in the philosophy curriculum will become increasingly normalised at Queen’s and beyond.

🎉 To bring a rather difficult academic year to an end (with very little non-virtual social interaction), we are glad to have been able to give 30 copies of @ThePhiloQueens away to our current society members and promote women philosophers in the process.

[QUB Philosophy Society @QUBPhilSoc]

We also reserved three copies of The Philosopher Queens during our giveaway and donated them to @QUBLibrary.

The book is now available for standard loan on the first floor of the McClay - we hope you enjoy!
