DUCKIE Duckie Archive 1996-2018 Name of Creator: Duckie Extent: 55 Files Administrative/Biographical History: Amended from the Duckie Website (2020): Duckie are lowbrow live art hawkers, homo-social honky-tonkers and clubrunners for disadvantaged, but dynamically developing authentic British subcultures. Duckie create good nights out and culture clubs that bring communities together. From their legendary 24-year weekly residency at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern to winning Olivier awards at the Barbican, they are purveyors of progressive working class entertainment who mix live art and light entertainment. Duckie combine vintage queer clubbing, LGBTQI+ heritage & social archeology & quirky performance art shows with a trio of socially engaged culture clubs: The Posh Club (our swanky showbiz palais for working class older folk, now regular in five locations), The Slaughterhouse Club (our wellbeing project with homeless Londoners struggling with booze, addiction and mental health issues), Duckie QTIPOC Creatives (our black and brown LGBTQI youth theatre, currently on a pause until we bag a funder). Duckie have long-term relationships with a few major venues including Barbican Centre, Rich Mix, Southbank Centre and the Brighton Dome, but we mostly put on our funny theatre events in pubs, nightclubs, church halls and community centres. They are a National Portfolio Organisation of Arts Council England and revenue funded by the Big Lottery Fund. Duckie produce about 130 events and 130 workshops each year - mostly in London and the South East - and our annual audience is about 30,000 real life punters.

Summary Human rights of many LGBT people across the globe are being abused, for instance in Egypt, Azerbaijan and Chechnya. Arrests, imprisonment and mistreatment are common examples, and discrimination is even more widespread. LGBT rights are not fully protected in all the British Overseas Territories. Homosexual acts in private between consenting adults were decriminalised under the United Kingdom's Caribbean Territories (Criminal Law) Order 2000. This illustrates that in exceptional circumstances the UK is prepared to impose social reform on the Overseas Territories.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Independent Community Advisory Board (CAB) submits its annual report reviewing the 2017 Pride in London (Pride) events. This report reflects issues raised at the CAB private review meeting held on 20 July 2017, which were based on community feedback and matters identified from CAB members’ own experiences. This year, for the first time, the CAB has also sought feedback from a range of major stakeholder organisations within the LGBT+ community. Their comments have been included, but anonymised. 1.2 The CAB is independent from the organisation of Pride. It advises the London LGBT+ Community Pride CIC (LLCP) Board and scrutinises their decisions. It provides guidance on inclusion, governance and other operational issues. Its membership is drawn from different strands of London’s LGBT+ communities with the hope of being broadly representative. The membership of the CAB at the date of this report is: • Chair: Adrian Hyyrylainen-Trett • Arts and Literature: Simon Tarrant (Winter Pride) • Bisexual People's Rep: Edward Lord OBE JP (BiUK) (Deputy Chair) • Black, Asian & Minority Ethnic People's Rep: Ozzy Amir (QMSU) • Campaigning and Political Groups: Tom Wilson (LGBT Labour) • Disabled People's Rep: Vacant • Faith and Belief Groups: Vacant • Health Rep: Eleanor Barnwell (Kings College NHS Foundation Trust) • Local Groups Rep: David Robson (Wandsworth LGBT Forum) • Older People's Rep: Peter Scott-Presland (Opening

  • La Biennale Di Venezia Presents a Film by Luke Seomore and Joseph Bull Blood Cells Synopsis
    LA BIENNALE DI VENEZIA PRESENTS A FILM BY LUKE SEOMORE AND JOSEPH BULL BLOOD CELLS SYNOPSIS Adam has lived a rootless existence since his family’s farm was destroyed by the Foot & Mouth epidemic of 2001. His life imploded and he abandoned his family after a single devastating incident. He has spent the years since on the nomadic fringes of British society, cycling through transitory jobs and transitory relationships, adrift from his family and past. When his younger brother Aiden reaches out to him to announce the birth of his first child – Adam is about to become an uncle – there is an ultimatum attached: come home now, or never come home again. Adam embarks on a journey home that is at once tortured and exhilarating, a panoramic tour through the broken and beautiful margins of Britain. As eruptions from his secret past begin to emerge, Adam attempts to break free from a self-imposed exile that must now end before it swallows him for good. IN CONVERSATION WITH JOSEPH BULL (WRITER/DIRECTOR) AND LUKE SEOMORE (WRITER/DIRECTOR/COMPOSER) How did the two of you get started as filmmakers? What was the original inspiration for Blood Cells? Joseph Bull: We met at art college and started working together. JB: A strong memory of burning cattle on the news during the Initially it was exploring photography and experimental films which we 2001 Foot and Mouth outbreak in the UK, the pyres against an projected for musicians’ live performances.

  • The Politics of (In)Visibility
    The Lesbian Lives Conference 2019: The Politics of (In)Visibility THE POITICS Centre for Transforming Sexuality and Gender & The School of Media University of Brighton 15th - 16th March 2019 Welcome! The organising team would like to welcome you to the 2019 Lesbian Lives conference on the Politics of (In)Visibility. The theme of this year’s conference feels very urgent as attacks on feminism and feminists from both misogynist, homophobic, transphobic and racist quarters are on the rise both here in the UK and elsewhere. It has been thrilling to see the many creative and critical proposals responding to this coming in from academics, students, activists, film-makers, writers artists, and others working in diverse sectors from across many different countries – and now you are here! We are delighted to be hosting the conference in collaboration with feminist scholars from University College Dublin, St Catharine’s College, Cambridge and Maynooth University. It is - what we think - the 24th Lesbian lives conference, although we are getting to the stage where we might start losing count. Let’s just say it is now a conference of some maturity that remains relevant in every age, as the world’s most longstanding academic conference in Lesbian Studies. What we do know is that the first ever Lesbian Lives Conference was held in 1993 in University College Dublin and has been trooping on since, with the dedication of academics and activists and the amazing support from the community. From this comes the unique atmosphere of the Lesbian Lives Conference which is something special – as Katherine O’Donnell, one of the founders of the conference, said: ‘there is a friendliness, a warmth, an excitement, an openness, a bravery and gentleness that every Lesbian Lives Conference has generated’.

The month of June was chosen to commemorate the Stonewall Riots of June 1969, which broke out after police raided the Stonewall Inn - a gay bar in Lower Manhattan, New York City. This prompted a series of spontaneous demonstrations by members of the LGBT community that are widely considered to have triggered the modern LGBT rights movement. The following year, to commemorate the Stonewall Riots, the first gay pride marches were held in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco. In the UK, the first official Gay Pride Rally took place in London in 1972. Around 2,000 people attended the event.1 The last London Pride that took place in 2019 attracted an estimated 1.5 million attendees, making it the largest yet.2 Pride events take place each year all over the UK.
