We are always expanding our #LGBThistory holdings, for example by close contact with the Met's liaison officers to that community, but they began with our acquisition of 'This Small Cloud', the 1986 publication of the memoirs of a gay officer who served from 1925 to 1950. #Museum30 #rainbow #LGBT

Funny how projection works. The folks shouting about “agendas” might want to check their own playbook.

On this day in 130 CE, #Antinous, companion to the Emperor #Hadrian, drowned in the River Nile during the feasts of #Osiris. The priests of Osiris both embalmed & deified him. To this day, Antinuous is celebrated as having traversed the underworld and returned a god. #rome #egypt #lgbthistory

My first nonfiction book was NO WAY, THEY WERE GAY? published by Zest Books @lernerbooks.bsky.social - it would have changed my life had I read it as an 11 year old. And yes, it changed my life writing it, too. #lgbtq #kidlit #nonfiction #lgbthistory

Earlier this year, I took part in an art exhibition as part of #transprideBirmingham. See my Instagram (@leo_joy_hg) for details if you're interested #queerart #lgbtart #transart #mixedmedia #embroidery #linostamps #linoprinting #queerhistory #lgbthistory
A photographer of me, a transgender man, with ginger hair and blue glasses, wearing a black dress, smiling. I am standing next to a mixed media artwork hanging on the wall behind Photo of the label for my art piece. It states the name of my work as Honour thy Trancestors, my name, pronouns and Instagram handle @@leo_joy_hg A closer photo of my artwork. It is a piece of pink material, hanging from a large, rustic stick. The material is embroidered with all the laws that have directly impacted lgbt people in Britain in the last 1000 years, going from top to bottom. The embroidery at the top is barely visible as the thread matches the material. The thread gets darker and more visible lower down, as we get to more modern times. The material is also printed with a range of lgbt symbols in black. They include an equals sign, gender symbols, lavender, a carabena and a pocket with a hankie coming out.
