This isn’t a moment, this is a MOVEMENT. Joined by Raquel Willis (activist, speaker and writer) and Mark Fletcher (CEO of Manchester Pride), we discuss the black LGBTQ+ experience. An experience that is multifaceted, not monolithic. It’s time for some inspiring stories from two black queer voices.

Raquel is a Black transgender activist, writer and media strategist dedicated to elevating the dignity of the marginalized, particularly transgender women of colour.

Credited for the continued innovation of Manchester Pride Festival, as CEO, Mark focuses all his energy into the charity which campaigns for LGBT+ equality.
