From Evolution to Activism: Representation from Nature to Bristol Pride
About the event
This event dove into how ideas of what is "natural" have been constructed, challenged, reclaimed, and transformed into fuel for social change. Through science, storytelling, activism, and lived experience, our panel explored Pride as a living movement of resistance, visibility, and community.
This LGBTQ+ History Month's panel was hosted by Louise Ndibwirende, featuring Daryn Carter and Antonia Forster.
