Pride #3: The Gay Liberation Front at LSE

“Archives are raw history in a sense. They record an event at a certain time. And it’s only when you look back that you can interpret it … but archives are the raw face of history.”


In this episode of the Pride miniseries, we talk to Dr. Gillian Murphy, the Curator for Equality, Rights, and Citizenship at the LSE Library. We discuss the Gay Liberation Front (GLF), which met for the first time 50 years ago at LSE, and the Hall-Carpenter archives, which offer us an insight into its work and short-lived career.
