  • Impact Case Study (Ref3b) Page 1 Institution: Birkbeck, University of London Unit of Assessment: 23 Sociology Title of Case Stud
    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: Birkbeck, University of London Unit of Assessment: 23 Sociology Title of case study: The Cultural and Creative Impacts of Sociological Research on Social Movements 1. Summary of the impact Professor Sasha Roseneil’s sociological research on social movements has become a central reference point for journalists, film makers, writers, artists, curators, archaeologists, and activists interested in the Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp and the wider milieu of post 1960s anti-nuclear, women’s and LGBT movements. It has impacted upon public and specialist understandings of, and knowledge about, Greenham, the protests of the late Cold War era, and feminist and queer politics more widely. It has influenced artistic production across a range of media and discussions of the preservation of heritage. 2. Underpinning research The underpinning research was an extensive body of work developed in three overlapping phases and published between 1995 and 2013. Phase 1 (initially as an ESRC-funded PhD student at LSE, and then at the University of Leeds, 1991-2000) began with an ethnographic study of the Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp and the wider women’s peace/ anti-nuclear movement. This resulted in two monographs: 1) Disarming Patriarchy (ref.1) was a sociological study of Greenham as a social movement; 2) Common Women, Uncommon Practices: the queer feminisms of Greenham (ref. 2) offered an analysis of the queer feminist politics and participants’ narratives and experiences of Greenham through the lens of debates in contemporary feminist and queer theory and practice. Other publications were concerned with understanding the dynamic relationship between the global, the local and the personal in the women’s peace movement, with the methodologies employed in the research, with questions of consciousness, identity and experience in relation to involvement with Greenham, and with theorizing Greenham as an instance of postmodern feminist politics.

  • Legal & General Amplifies Music, Art & Culture with Musician and Artist
    Legal & General Group Plc 07 June 2021 Legal & General amplifies music, art & culture with Musician and Artist Exchange partnership Legal & General, alongside partner Mitsubishi Estate London, has joined forces with Musician and Artist Exchange (MAX) to recognise the crucial role the arts play in urban economies and provide a platform to enable the UK’s creative sectors to reignite. The creative sectors have faced crippling impacts as a result of the pandemic. With a huge decline in revenues and an increasing number of workers ’placed on furlough, support from Government has not been enough to weather the storm. Recognising this, Legal & General has entered partnership with MAX, to both support and facilitate its drive to bring the arts and culture back to our local communities. MAX, a UK network of practitioners drawn from music, the arts and culture, will produce a series of events kicking off on 21st June 2021. Born out of the need to present artistically well curated events in new locations, MAX Productions’ musical events will be hosted at 245 Hammersmith Road, Legal & General and Mitsubishi Estate London’s award-winning office scheme in Central London. A diverse and inclusive cross-cultural programme has been curated to encourage broad participation, proactively engaging across all demographics – including events for local schools, as well as free tickets for young people through MAX’s alignment with CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust. The special programme at 245 Hammersmith Road will present a wide range of talent and variety of genres, including performances from ‘Black Voices’, a five women strong vocal group, and ‘The Pink Singers’, Europe’s longest-running LGBT+ choir.

  • Situating LGBTQ Voices in National Trust Historic Houses
    Queer activism begins at home: situating LGBTQ voices in National Trust historic houses Sean Curran UCL Institute of Education Supervisors: Professor Pam Meecham & John Reeve I, Sean Curran confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 1 _______________________________________________________________ _______ 2 Abstract Despite a growing body of literature and practical examples of lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ) interventions in museums, there is a dearth of research in equivalent initiatives in historic houses, specifically in those owned and managed by the National Trust. My research aims to address that gap, by using a creative intervention in the form of an exhibition for LGBT History Month. This queered action research involved curating an intervention, using a crowd-sourced exhibition, at the National Trust’s Sutton House in Hackney, London. The exhibition and the process of curation is the primary case study in my thesis. The exhibition 126, saw 126 LGBTQ identified volunteers submitting smartphone recordings of Shakespeare’s Fair Youth Sonnets and short video portraits of themselves as contributors. These were edited into a film, and exhibited at the first ever ‘Queer Season’ at Sutton House in February and March 2015. While feedback from visitors and contributors was analysed, the video portraits formed the primary data in the thesis. The videos are presented as a means through which LGBTQ people have chosen to represent their queer identities in a National Trust property. The results are noteworthy for the diversity of ways that LGBTQ people choose to visually signify their queer identities when given autonomy to do so.

Esperanza Miyake Lancaster University, 2007 ABSTRACT This thesis seeks to understand the relationship between music and sexuality within the context of urban lesbian and gay music and music-making practices. Theoretically, I am mainly informed by queer musicology, popular music studies, cultural and subcultural studies, and the sociology of music. Building upon existing queer and feminist understandings of music and sexuality, I problematise both the conflation of sexuality and gender in music, and the conceptualisation of sexuality as part of an erotic exchange in music.

  • Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Community Archives at LMA
    RESEARCH GUIDE 25 - Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Community Archives at LMA CONTENTS Introduction Speak Out London Project! Collections at LMA Access Other sources Further reading What next? Introduction This guide explores collections relevant to the research of LGBT history from 17th century to the present day. London has always been the capital of the LGBT community in England and Wales; for many lesbian and gay people, London's size and diversity have offered them a place of refuge with the opportunities to live their lives with relative tolerance, and explore their own sexualities. Before 1967, gay sex between men was illegal. Religious intolerance and discrimination meant that Lesbian and gay communities were until late 20th century effectively 'hidden' within wider society. Relationships took place behind closed doors, and certain areas were known for male prostitution. Common places where cross dressing and gay sex took place in 18th century were 'Molly Houses' (or brothels). In 1890s, London saw the high profile scandal with the trial of Oscar Wilde, the writer over his relationship with Alfred Douglas, the son of the Marquis of Queensberry. He was held for a time at Wandsworth Prison. The introduction of The Sexual Offences Act in 1967 decriminalised consensual sex between two men in private. There has never been a law specifically against sex between women, so the Act only applied to men. Since the 1960s a growing number of related social, political and cultural organisations have been established. Groups formed in response to direct attacks on individuals, such as Admiral Duncan nail bombing in 2000 and wider society's problem with homosexuality by campaigning for the removal of legal and social discrimination.
