“The despotism of custom is everywhere the standing hindrance to human advancement, being in unceasing antagonism to that disposition to aim at something better than customary, which is called, according to circumstances, the spirit of liberty, or that of progress or improvement.”
— John Stuart Mill, On Liberty (via philosophybits)
On this day, 10 December 1984, Lesbian and Gays Support the Miners put on a benefit show at Camden’s Electric Ballroom featuring Bronski Beat to support coal miners who had been on strike for several months against mass pit closures. The gig raised over £5000 for strikers in south Wales. LGSM came to prominence recently after being the subject of the excellent 2014 film, Pride.
