Join YUSU LGBTQ+ on Friday 19th February for a special guest talk and Q&A from Jonathan Blake! Jonathan Blake was one of the first people in the UK to be diagnosed with HIV in the UK in the early 1980s and has been an advocate for LGBT+ rights for over three decades. He was involved with the campaign group Lesbian and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) and was portrayed in the film Pride by Dominic West. Jonathan will be delivering a talk about attitudes towards HIV and AIDS, along with a history of the Lesbian and Gays Support the Miners movement. There will also be some time after Jonathan’s talk for a Q&A session.
