Pride and Protest



Made a personal selection on this postcard book, which contained 32 postcards, Pride and Protest was produced in celebration of 25 years of lesbian and gay visibility and activism. The short introduction:
This book is published to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Stonewall Rebellion. It is a celebration in pictures of lesbian and gay pride and protest. 
These photographs from lesbian and gay visibility and activism in Britain and the United States are dedicated to millions of individuals worldwide who, using courage, dignity and anger, continue our fight for freedom and equality everywhere.
Selected image by Paul Mattsson, and caption at the back reads "Kiss-in at the Eros statue, London 1990 - organized by OutRage!" Edited by Roz Hopkins, published in 1994 by Cassell plc, royalties from sales of the book were donated to The Pride Trust in Britain.

This month in liwaliw Pages, I pre-selected titles from my personal library for the June observance of LGBT Pride. Love wins.
