Lisa Power's achieved so much during her life: she helped set up Stonewall, worked at Switchboard, was the policy director at the Terrence Higgins Trust and is now on the board at Queer Britain and was a consultant on Russell T Davies' new series 'It's a Sin' (more of which in the interview). When I spoke to people for series one Lisa's name popped up so many times in various places and times- so I knew I wanted to talk to her. So towards the start of lockdown in 2020 I called her for an interview. ADMISSION: we recorded this when I still didn't really know what I was doing with remote recording- so the quality in some parts is a bit crap. It does get better though! Here are links to the films that Lisa mentioned during our conversation We were here - the documentary about HIV/AIDS: https://wewereherefilm.com/ 120 beats per minute- the French film about HIV/AIDs https://www.theguardian.com/film/2018/apr/08/120-beats-per-minute-observer-review Thanks so much for listening. Happy LGBT+ history month
