LGBTQ Library at UFS Quest

An incredible quest to found a LGBTQI Library and History Archive at University of the Free State in Bloemfontein city in central South Africa - nothing like it has been attempted before! (Please sign our petition Support Founding of a LGBTQ History Archive and Library at University of the Free State at change.org using the link https://www.change.org/support-lgbtq-archive-library-at-ufs please). LGBTQI people are largely excluded from SA's historical narratives and suffer social and historical "invisibility" & lack a recorded history. Our young people need such institutions and sources to construct a sense of self and identity. It will be only the second such an institution in SA and at a university besides the GALA Queer Archives & the first at UFS to have the "LGBTQI" words in its title. The quest and campaign and proposal for founding of the archive and library at UFS was launched and is driven by Kovsies Pride Society & Adriaan van den Berg enjoying support from Dr. Ronni Sanlo.
