This week we are talking about people who have made a difference - transforming the way we see each other and ourselves. With the help of the late great bell hooks we analyse what it means to be a real man. We talk about the original 'Queen of Drag' William Dorsey Swann. The 'Glamour Boys' of UK politics. And how the AIDS epidemic changed queer culture in ways we often don't see.
