Prides A Riot by Crystal Galbraith - Episode 2 Stories From The Grey Hill
-
- Performing Arts
"Pride's A Riot" is a story set in 1992 that follows the journey of young Andy and Ryan as they navigate widespread discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community. After activist Marsha P. Johnson is found dead, likely murdered, Andy and Ryan organise a protest demanding justice. When violence erupts, injuring many, they realise more drastic action is needed. Undaunted, the friends press on, determined to force society to confront the violence and indifference that queer people face daily. Their struggle speaks to the power of marginalised voices rising in righteous anger against injustice, refusing to be silent or invisible any longer.
