CJRC researcher Dr. Matthew Ball<\/a> from the School of Justice, Faculty of Law, presented at a LGBTIQ symposium held at the Gardens Theatre earlier this week.\u00a0The event\u00a0\u201cIn our Lifetime \u2013 past, present and future for LGBTIQ Queenslanders”<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>was\u00a0<\/em>hosted by QUT Equity as part of this month’s pride celebrations in Brisbane.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Dr. Ball’s presentation\u00a0discussed the community’s interaction with the police, and the progress that has been made in terms of criminal justice protections for LGBT people, as well as some of the ongoing challenges. He argued that the troubled historical relationship remains a challenge, as it continues to divide the community. Recent calls for police not to march in pride (saying there is ‘No Pride in Police’ and there should be ‘No Police in Pride’) are a recent example of these issues.<\/p>\n

The symposium featured a number of other prominent guest speakers, including the Queensland Attorney-General, the Hon. Yvette D’Ath MP, who delivered a keynote address. For further details, see program outline below:<\/p>\n
