On the 13th day of Pride, I would like to honour Tove Jansson, the lesbian author and illustrator. Tove is primarily famous for writing and illustrating the Moomins books, with her first novel released in 1945. The Moomins are world famous and as a kid I grew up on their stories.
On the 12th day of Pride, I would like to honour Mark Ashton, a gay rights activist. He formed the "Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM)" to collect donations for the miners on strike at the 1984 Lesbian and Gay Pride march in London. This is dramatised in the film Pride.
