The Lesbian Avengers Eat Fire, Too

The Lesbian Avengers Eat Fire, Too

Lesbian activism, Anti-lesbian violence, Lesbian film, Dyke marches, Demonstrations -- New York (State) -- New York

In the words of the directors, this self-produced documentary by the Lesbian Avengers "offers a rare insiders' look at the New York group's first year, from their initial groundbreaking demo in front of an elementary school in '92 to the incredible Dyke March in DC, where the Avengers ate fire in front of the White House, cheered on by an enormous crowd. More than a historical document, the video also offers important insights about how to organize successful actions and motivate participants. Released shortly after the Avengers exploded nationally in 1993, it was an essential tool for sharing activist skills and recruiting members. Even today, it inspires as much as it does instruct. If they can do it, I can, too."
