In 1991, the Bi/Lesbian/Gay Political Action Group (BIPOL) advertised a conference for bisexual activists at New College in San Francisco. The event focused on multi-cultural organising for bisexual activists.

A 1994 poster from The Women Partners of Bisexual Men Project, created by the AIDS Council of New South Wales. The project offered information on HIV prevention and sexual health through the AIDS Hotline and Family Planning Association. The poster depicts a man seated with a woman and a second man holds his hands behind her back.

A huge thanks to Queer Heritage and Collections Network for having me at their recent symposium to talk about my work with the Bi History project. It was a real pleasure to speak about inclusivity and the importance of making space for bi+ histories.

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR) is observed annually on November 20th to honour the memory of transgender people who have lost their lives due to transphobic violence.
