Title Photograph – Sphen and Magic adoptive penguin fathers [Photograph]
Published Sydney : Q News, 2021.
Collation 1 framed photograph with caption : colour ; 43 x 33 cm
General Note Caption: “Who better to tip a bouquet of ice on a discriminatory policy against diversity than a pair of loved-up penguins? The Sydney Mardi Gras theme for 2021 is “Stand Up!”, and that is the message two hyper-sized male Gentoo penguins will be telling the community at this year’s parade on the NSW Teachers Federation’s float."
Caption, continued: “We’re Standing Up – standing up for our rights, for our students, and for LGBTIQ communities,” said Mel Smith, Federation Deputy Secretary (Communications and Administration) and officer responsible for LGBTIQ matters. In real life, adoptive penguin fathers Sphen and Magic have become same-sex celebrities after raising two chicks in their expansive enclosure at SEA LIFE Aquarium at Sydney’s Darling Harbour.” – NSWTF News 20 February 2021.
