The 78ers at Midsumma

LGBTIQA+ Community

This year, for the first time the 78ers will march in Melbourne Midsumma’s Pride March. Their group of 25, will be marching behind the “78ers Fearless!” banner and will include Melburnians and visitors from Sydney and the regions.

Courtesy of news.com.au – we also heard an audio clip with Sandi Banks, one of the original 78ers, tell her story of what happened all those years ago.
