LGBTQ+ HISTORY MONTH 2021 / PAGE 2
I am delighted to invite you to this year’s LGBTQ+
history month. The theme for February 2021 is Body, Mind, Spirit.
Lambeth Libraries will host a series of events including Q&As
with authors, history talks and reading sessions for all ages that
explore the contribution LGBTQ+ people have made to all our lives.
Lambeth Libraries have co-ordinated this programme to give
an insight into LGBTQ+ history, giving us all the opportunity to
understand and challenge discrimination and promote equality,
diversity and inclusion. The vibrancy of Lambeth is very well
reflected in the diversity of our communities and our commitment
to equality. I hope you will join us.
