The ENTIRE History Of Lesbians

The history of lesbians is a hidden tale that history tried to erase. We journey through time to uncover the rich tapestry of lesbian history, digging up the life of Anne Lister, a 19th-century entrepreneur whose coded diaries unveiled her secret affairs with women. We explore the global impact of colonialism on queer communities, from Africa's diverse gender roles to Two-Spirit acceptance in the Americas and love celebrations in the Caribbean. Travel through suffragist struggles, the Lavender Scare's dark era, and the rise of powerful lesbian activists. We celebrate victories, honor heroes, and paint a more colorful future. Enjoy!
