Sam Smith explores how AIDS became headline news in the 1980s, and how communities came together to raise public awareness - and fight a growing tide of fear and stigma. Terry Higgins' death in 1982 was one of the first in the UK from an AIDS-related illness. In the years that followed, a steady drip of information - as well as misinformation - slowly spread about HIV. Much of the early, pioneering work around HIV was done by volunteer organisations from within the queer community, like the London Lesbian and Gay Switchboard and the Terrence Higgins Trust - while many of their members simultaneously faced their own ill health, and the deaths of friends and loved ones. The people most affected by HIV faced horrendous prejudice: in 1986, the Chief Constable of Greater Manchester, James Anderton stated publically that gay men, drug users and sex workers were "swirling about in a human cesspit of their own making." The British government eventually launched one of the biggest public information campaigns in UK history - with the slogan Don't Die Of Ignorance. It delivered facts about HIV onto TV screens and onto the doorsteps of every household in Britain. But it also stigmatised the condition even more. Sam Smith discovers what it was like to live through that period from writer Juno Roche, Bill Smart who worked in Manchester's gay bars, and Lisa Power, a former volunteer at Switchboard and one of the founders of Stonewall, about how they brought people from the queer community together to share information - and support those who were living with HIV in a time before effective treatment. In "A Positive Life", singer Sam Smith presents stories of HIV in the UK over the last forty years. They hear from people who remember the earliest years of the AIDS crisis; the grassroots activists and marginalised communities who came together to fight stigma and raise public awareness; and a new generation living with effective treatments for HIV in a radically-changed world.

Thanks for listening and don’t forget to share!     The GenderGP Podcast Queer Sex with special guest Juno Roche   Hello, this is Dr. Helen Webberley. Welcome to our Gender GP Podcast, where we will be discussing some of the issues affecting the trans and non-binary community in the world today, together with my co-host Marianne Oakes, a trans woman herself, and our head of therapy.   Dr. Helen Webberley: This morning we are really delighted to welcome Juno Roche to join us. Let me just hand over to you to get the ball rolling. Juno Roche: Fantastic. It’s always slightly daunting when someone says let’s start the ball rolling. It’s lovely to be here, and it’s lovely to be asked on to talk about my book which came out earlier this year, Queer Sex. And also to talk more generally about why I felt the need to write the book and why I actually do a lot of the stuff that I do, which is around trans empowerment, trans bodies, trans sex, and in a sense, kind of the way that we have some autonomy about our process. Thank you for inviting me on to talk. Dr. Helen Webberley: You mentioned trans empowerment. Why do you think trans people need empowerment? What does that actually mean to the man in the street? Juno Roche: Well, the woman in the street, as it may happen. For me, it’s about how our processes are paternalistically aligned. From my generation, and I still hear many people say – so we tend to do this thing that we demonise the bodies we were born in by saying, “I was born in the wrong body.” And if you think about that statement on its own, it’s such a divisive statement to make about your own body, to say that you were born in the wrong body. There is an awful lot of things wrong with society, and what society puts onto women, and puts onto men. And the way that it handles gender. What happens is that we have to try and fit in to that. and we have a slight incongruence about our bodies, but that doesn’t mean that they are the wrong bodies. It is important to me that we take back control, so that we don’t just join line after line of people trying to make us better, trying to make this right, trying to make us fit in. when will we be man enough? When will we be acceptable? At what point do we blend? At what point do we pass? At what point do we become absorbed into society? People say to us there is no more disempowering or un-empowering line than somebody saying I’d never have known. I’d never have known that that’s what you were.

Host Mirelle Harris explores what it means to be transgender. Is gender something that has been invented by society? What actually makes a woman or a man? What impact will the recent consultation of the Gender Recognition Act have on the debate? We meet Juno Roche, writer, campaigner and transgender woman; Olivia Palmer from Mayday for Women, a radical feminist group that opposes any changes felt to endanger female spaces; and Hannah Witton, sex and relationships YouTuber and author. Mirelle also speaks to activist and writer, Sugar Swan; Jamie Pallas from Gendered Intelligence; hears the experiences of Lizzie Smyth who wanted to transition; and talks to users of a ladies only pool in London. There are also interviews with Stephanie Davis-Arai from Transgender Trend; and Lucy Jeffries from Quiet Down There, who organises artist led projects for young people, including Hijack, which aims to start them thinking about gender equality.

On her Netflix one-woman show, Nanette, Hannah Gadsby opines, “There’s only ever been two options for a little girl to grow up into: virgin or whore…. And I don’t fit neatly into either of those categories. Virgin or whore? I mean, on a technicality, I’d get virgin.” Virginity is a weird, nebulous idea that’s mostly measured in heterosexual terms. So what value does virginity hold for queer and trans people? Is it worth pulling it out of the patriarchal muck? So on this episode, Soleil talks to Juno Roche, a trans writer and advocate who recently authored a book called Queer Sex.

Michael Grade has always been fascinated by those who choose to take great risks. Michael was born into an immigrant family who risked everything to find a new life in an unknown country. In this programme for the interview series One to One, he talks to Juno Roche who also took the same leap of faith into a new world when she transitioned two years ago. Juno says that in choosing to change sex the risk is all encompassing, 'You have no idea what awaits you on the other side. Will you be able to walk down the street without being labelled a freak? Will you have any friends or family who will accept you?' Producer: Lucy Lunt.
