- Geschichte
How did Manchester fight the introduction of Section 28, introduced in 1988 to ban the “promotion" of homosexuality?
By the 90s the LGBT+ party scene in Manchester was famous enough to be known as Gaychester – but why did Manchester become known for its queer community?
Each episode of In This Place: Gaychester looks at a different aspect of the city’s queer history.
If you’re in Manchester, you can use this podcast as a walking tour and visit the locations spoken about.
To stand where the Section 28 protest took place, head to the town hall and find the rainbow mosaic by the entrance.
Presenter: Dolly Rose-Campbell
Producers: Robert Beck, Jo Deahl and Jo Newsholme
Editors: Nicky Edwards and Sam Turner
