LGBT+ History Month 2022

23 Feb 2022 | Georgina Brown In the fourth video in a series for LGBT+ History Month, Advance HE's Senior Adviser for Equality Charters, Georgina Brown, reflects on the changing attitudes towards people who identify as LGBT+.

It’s LGBT+ History Month. The theme for 2022 is Politics in Art: “The Arc is Long” which is inspired by a Martin Luther King quote: ‘The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice’ - meaning ‘although it is taking a long time, we are curving/moving towards social justice and fairness.’

We spoke to Georgina Brown (her/she and xe/xem/xir), Senior Adviser Equality Charters at Advance HE about the positive steps xe has seen in xir lifetime of changing attitudes towards social justice and fairness for people who identify as LGBT+.

Georgina says, "...the true essence of inclusion is the understanding of all voices and how we can come to common ground on the way forward..."
