A Merseyside-based artist has been attending Pride events since the 80s and even protested with Lily Savage when she was a child.
Jazamin Sinclair, who lives in Aigburth, remembers going to demonstrations and “shouting for gay and lesbian rights” with her aunties who helped organise marches in London. While her family members were making sure meetings were running smoothly and preparing food for performers, Jazamin herself was making memories and getting papped by the likes of Gay Times, the same magazine she would appear on the front cover of for her commitment to taking a stance against anti-LGBTQ+ laws.
The former photography student told the ECHO : “I remember the marches and then the performances and parties as being loads of fun. I enjoyed it all as a child. I didn’t really realise the seriousness of it all as well though at the time - and apparently we came up against the likes of the National Front on occasion at some of the demonstrations and marches.
