Description
OutRage! was a queer direct action group formed in May 1990 and active until 2011. Its aims were to assert the human rights of LGBTQIA people; to fight homophobia, discrimination and violence; and to affirm rights to sexual freedom and self-determination. This is a plain white poster with black text reading "Come our Archbishop of York!" This was part of OutRage!'s 1994 campaign which aimed to tackle homophobia in the Church of England by outing prominent church leaders who were privately gay but who publicly condemned homosexuality and opposed queer human rights. The OutRage! logo is at the bottom of the poster.
