In this long form interview, our Mardi Gras board member Charlie chats to Ken Davis, a lifelong left-wing activist who helped organise the first Mardi Gras in 1978. They discuss the history of the gay liberation movement in Australia right up to modern day LGBT politics. They cover huge ground across revolutionary politics of the 60s and 70s, internationalism, queer culture, and liberalism’s inevitable slide into right-wing nationalism.
