S2E4: Lisa Power Queer Margins

Lisa Power's achieved so much during her life: she helped set up Stonewall, worked at Switchboard, was the policy director at the Terrence Higgins Trust and is now on the board at Queer Britain and was a consultant on Russell T Davies' new series 'It's a Sin' (more of which in the interview).

When I spoke to people for series one Lisa's name popped up so many times in various places and times- so I knew I wanted to talk to her.

So towards the start of lockdown in 2020 I called her for an interview.

ADMISSION: we recorded this when I still didn't really know what I was doing with remote recording- so the quality in some parts is a bit crap. It does get better though!

Here are links to the films that Lisa mentioned during our conversation

We were here - the documentary about HIV/AIDS: https://wewereherefilm.com/

120 beats per minute- the French film about HIV/AIDs

Thanks so much for listening.

Happy LGBT+ history month
