LGBTQ+ History Month Lecture: Queer beyond London: LGBTQ lives in Brighton, Leeds, Manchester and Plymouth by Professor Matt Cook

Professor Matt Cook, University of Oxford

London has often been used as the barometer but an exploration of the queer contours of Leeds, Manchester, Brighton and Plymouth shows how and why LGBTQ scenes, communities and identities could feel very different from place to place.
