How can we create a better world for LGBTQ+ people? Mykki Blanco, Kate Bornstein, Peppermint, Owen Jones, Beth Ditto, Wolfgang Tillmans and more share their stories and visions for the future.

'Captivating . . . A must-read' Gay Times

We talk about achieving 'LGBTQ+ equality', but around the world, LGBTQ+ people are still suffering discrimination and extreme violence. How do we solve this urgent problem, allowing queer people everywhere the opportunity to thrive?

In We Can Do Better Than This, 35 voices explore this question. Through deeply moving stories and provocative new arguments on safety and visibility, dating and gender, care and community, they present a powerful manifesto for how - together - we can start to create a better future.
