Today in Labor History July 15, 1984: Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) was founded in London. They called for LGBTQ folks who were interested in solidarity work to create a network to support the nationwide miners’ strike. Eleven people attended the initial meeting, but the organization would grow rapidly, providing considerable financial support and solidarity work, building a lasting link between the labor and LGBTQ movements. In 1985, the London Pride parade was led by a contingent of miners.
