ADAM ZMITH – WRITER/TALKER/THINKER/MAKER

Adam is one of the producers behind The Log Books, a podcast about LGBTQ+ history, which has been named Best New Podcast at the British Podcast Awards 2020.

In this talk Adam will share some of his favourite stories from the podcast, and Britain’ s queer history, using moving and evocative sound clips from the series, and photos from the Switchboard archive.

The talk covers a range of experiences and identities from the LGBTQ+ family. It helps to inform us all about our queer history, and to welcome allies into understanding their LGBTQ+ colleagues and family members.

Plus plenty of time for questions!
