Beschreibung
In May 1988, a law was passed that made 'promotion' of LGBTQI+ identities illegal across the United Kingdom. It was not repealed until the early 2000s. For fifteen years, young queer people in the UK grew up in the shadow of this oppressive law.

Students of the 80s, 90s, and early 00s are still feeling the impact of the original "don't say gay" law to this day. At a time where new laws prohibiting the support of young LGBTQI+ people are appearing across the world, we need to hear from the people impacted by Section 28 now more than ever.

These are their stories.

Über den Autor
Kestral Gaian is an author, poet, and playwright whose work refuses to sit neatly inside a box. Their writing inhabits the places where genres overlap and come undone: the personal and the political, the digital and the human, the soft and the furious. Kestral's work is defined by a deep belief that stories can help us practise being better humans. Or at least weirder, kinder ones.Kestral's background is wide ranging, from psychotherapy to technology to community activism, and this diversity infuses their art. Audiences and readers often describe being moved not just by what Kestral writes, but by how it feels to inhabit the worlds they create: playful, thoughtful, deeply human.Whether writing poetry, plays, lyrics, or fiction, Kestral Gaian is committed to work that challenges, delights, and endures. Their voice is one of defiance and tenderness, of systems questioned, and of humanity held close.
