Alison Thorne: Feminism, Transgender Liberation and the Stonewall Rebellion

Rainbow Atheists, Humanists Australia and Radical Women are proud to present Alison Thorne as guest speaker for this special Stonewall anniversary celebration.

Thorne is a veteran LGBTIQA+ liberationist, a trade unionist and a founding member of the Melbourne chapter of socialist feminist organisation, Radical Women.

Having studied the shared roots of oppression between cis and trans women and all queers, she’s been arguing for decades that feminism must be inclusive of transgender sisters. Rainbow Atheists and Radical Women will co-host this discussion, paying tribute to the leadership of trans women of colour and working class non-binary folks in the Stonewall riots. Declaring “Enough!” to police harassment, these protests laid fertile ground for a radical liberation movement, set on dismantling compulsory heterosexuality, busting the gender binary and winning liberation for all.
