Promoting Lesbian Strength & Unity
Why Have We Set Up Lesbian Strength?
Lesbian Strength was formed by a group of lesbian feminists in 2019. Lesbians have long been marginalised within the ‘LGBT community’ but there has been increasing hostility towards lesbians, lesbian identity and the fundamental idea that lesbians are women who are exclusively same-sex attracted.
What Do Lesbian Strength Stand For?
We believe that separate organising is the only way to build a strong, supportive community for lesbians. Our aims as a group are:
- To oppose lesbian erasure
- To amplify the voices of lesbians
- To build community amongst lesbians
What Is The Herstory Behind Lesbian Strength?
We organised our first event in Leeds in 2019. Lesbian Strength marches were held in the UK, the first in 1981 and then throughout the 1980s. They were women-only events and it was important to us to build on this herstory and restart this tradition. Leeds is a city with a proud feminist tradition, the first Reclaim the Night march was held in Leeds in 1977 and it is strongly associated with Revolutionary Feminism.
As A Lesbian How Can I Get Involved?
