Queer As Fliuch
Queer as Fliuch will aim to document the evolution of Irish Queer history through the voices of those who have lived through it. From the early days of a small social movement of the 1970s, to the death of Declan Flynn in 1982, decriminalisation in 1993, to becoming the first-ever country to ratify same-sex marriage through popular vote in 2015, we look at all of this and more. Hosted by stand-up comedian, Sinéad Walsh. Researched by Emer McGinnity. Produced and hosted by Acast.Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
