“As long as there are queer people who want to fight, we have a future”
“I saw a lot of dark times in my life, but now, at the threshold of my 70s, I I'm probably happier now than I've ever been. And that's not really the narrative around age and particularly in the gay community…”
WHAT I NOW KNOW (BUT I DIDN'T KNOW THEN) is a photography and oral history project shining a light on older LGBTQ+ lives and stories from South London.
