Afgelopen weekend is in Sydney Mardi Gras van start gegaan, het grootste Pride festival in het land. Voor historica Ingeborg van Teeseling een mooie aanleiding om te vertellen over Don Dunstan. Eind jaren zestig en bijna de gehele seventies was Dunstan premier van Zuid-Australië en hij speelde een belangrijke rol in de decriminalisering van homoseksualiteit.
