“Roger Casement is an intriguing figure - humanitarian, Irish revolutionary, gay - and much had and would be written about him, there was something about his character as a conflicted man, an Irish Protestant who spent much of his time representing England in different African nations, a gay man who, true to the times, kept his sexual orientation to himself, that kept playing in my head. I read on and around him, but a historical figure is not a story - it's not even a character - so my story, the one that I would develop into Valiant Gentlemen, had yet to reveal itself.” MenDifferentCharacterGayHistoricalHumanitarianRevolutionaryGentlemanIntriguingGay MenHistorical Figure Author:Sabina Murray
“In this cultural moment, many of us are feeling inadequate to solve societal problems - fascism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, anti-Semitism, the list goes on - and are unsure of how individuals can affect real change. We don't know what effect we will have on the current political climate as we strive to effect change. All large historical decision draw from a sea of smaller decisions. One never knows what will make the difference in the long run.” LongRealMomentsFeelingsProblemRunningPoliticalIndividualDecisionRacismHistoricalStriveFascismMisogynyInadequateHomophobiaUnsure Author:Sabina Murray
