'Queer Tours of London - A Mince Through Time' host Disability Queer Riot! 15th July 2pm - Central London.
How can I be proud of my LGBT+ identity at ‘Pride in London’ if I can’t even get to the bar to celebrate?
How can I mince, flirt and meet others if there is not even 1 LGBT+ bar or club that is fully accessible to the LGBT+ disabled community?
How can I be proud of my impairments if i'm discriminated to come on Pride?
Are you part of the LGBT+ disability community? Are you sick and tired of being ignored and tokenised? Want more action and less talk?
Well join me - Josh - a ‘Queer Tours of London - A Mince Through time’ guide, trainee lawyer and sexual revolutionary whilst we take to the streets and in true queer provocative style do an informative and interactive tour of Soho to share the lived realities of the LGBT+ disabled community.
There’s only 20 spaces for the tour so get in there quick - please email queertoursoflondon@gmail.com to register your interest or for any press / volunteer support. Suggested donations £10 or whatever you can afford.
Here’s the plan
2pm - Meeting point - Soho Square
2-3pm Placard making with the scores for each venue and the demands
3-5pm - Queer disabled Riot-tour!
5-6pm - Presentation of our demands in central London venue tbc. Invites are being sent to London’s LGBT+ cultural spaces managers.
Our demands
Equality over profit - LGBT+ venues just stop pretending you are not under to be accessible - you know you should be - are you doing everything you can?
Access 4 All - we’ll chain ourselves to the steps by September if you don’t make an explicit statement of your intentions
MORE TALK LESS ACTION! LGBT+ FREEDOM FOR ALL!
