The Lesbian Avengers were born in 1992 during an earlier wave of hardcore woman-hating, and anti-gay, white Nationalist hate.
They kicked off with a ground-breaking demo in front of a New York City elementary school encouraging students and their parents to "Ask about Lesbian Lives," and support the embattled multicultural curriculum.
This simple, but taboo-busting gesture launched an extraordinary movement that spoke to lesbians everywhere. Partly for their media-savvy tactics and bold gestures like fire-eating. But above all, for their unapologetic lesbian lust. Sometimes for other women. Sometimes for power.
One visible legacy is the Dyke March, still organized in cities across the globe.
