Pride Is A Protest: Remembering Stonewall

Published on: 7th June, 2021

Kim and Luca go back to June 28th 1969 when police in New York City raided a packed house at The Stonewall Inn. This pivotal moment marks a shift in Gay Activism, prompting the creation of the Gay Liberation Front and later the Gay Activist Alliance. The Good Troublemakers talk about the facts, the fiction, the build up and the aftermath and celebrate some of the extraordinary figures that paved the way for activists the world over.

About the Podcast

How Not
A Space for Good Troublemakers
How Not is the brainchild of two gobby Scottish creatives, Kim Macari and Luca Manning, who like to talk about the BIG stuff. We thought you might like to listen...So here we are. Our mission is to always be Good Troublemakers, to think big and to ask - How Not?!

Each episode, we pick something BIG to talk about. Sometimes that's an issue or idea that's been keeping us awake at night (like the right to Protest, The Punk Movement or Universal Basic Income...) and sometimes it's a person who think is bold and brilliant - someone worthy of the title Good Troublemaker (like Keith Haring, Marsha P. Johnson or Dererk Jarman...)
