Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

This neighbourhood has definitely changed since those times - '...you could see for miles',

Lesson learned - rentings for mugs - there's security in owning your own space

A clip from the 1997 film DAKAN, one of the first West African films to center homosexuality. More than two decades later, DAKAN remains a landmark of queer cinema and a reminder of the legacy of Black queer storytelling across the diaspora.

Ivor Cummings welcomed the Windrush generation at Tilbury in 1948. Gay. Black. Croydon-grown. The archive kept his job titles, his office memos, but hid the man.

Communities and populations engage with the urgent task of saving our planet in different ways. I just completed this study that concludes that sexually and gender diverse persons face barriers to participate in climate action, and lays out a way forward.
