SNS Online - LGBT History Month Pt 1 (Michael Brown)
from SNS Online · host Nick Randell
We take a short pause from our current run to help celebrate LGBT History Month. LGBT History Month focuses on the celebration and recognition of LGBT people and culture, past and present, to give educators scope to talk about the bigger picture of LGBT experience - in which LGBT people were the agents of change rather than just victims of prejudice. In 2012, when ScratchNSniff was a community programme for the LGBT community (broadcast on national radio outlet, RTÉ), we produced two programmes featuring two extraordinary people who, time and time again, deliberately placed themselves in the firing line to help change occur in this country, and beyond. For the first time on Soundcloud, these shows are available to listen online or free to download. Our aim is to add to the repository of LGBT experience during this month of celebrations and study… Our first show features 80 year old gay campaigner, Michael Brown… “Jewish. Gay. And born in 1932. The odds were stacked against Michael Brown, in a world then blighted from racism and homophobia. But this was one individual who both survived and thrived. Join him for an hour's conversation exclusive to *SNS.” SNS Online continues to offer an eclectic range of quality programming - free to download - to all like-minded people out there in cyber-space. These shows are independent podcasts produced to the highest professional standards and are non-profit making. So please enjoy, download and share these shows on all your lovely social media - as essentially that is our advertising! And please, please, please...offer feedback on the 'SNS Online' FB page or Twitter (ScratchNTweet). Big kiss, ScratchNSniffers! - Nick Randell X *Reversioned from a programme originally broadcast on RTÉ Pulse on 11.07.12. EXTRAORDINARY LIVES. ONLINE.
