Black British Lesbians

New archive in the making for Black British lesbians and their herstory. I'll be following this one eagerly. Blurb below, along with an email addy for anyone with info they wanna contribute.

The basis for this blog is the chronology printed in Valerie Mason-John & Ann Khambatta's 1993 book 'Lesbians Talk Making Black Waves'.

The herstory of Black British lesbians is being lost. Our books our out of print and our memories are not always being shared. My aim is to update the chronology with your help.

If you know of any groups, events, meetings etc that should be added to this timeline please add them to the blog or email me at nazmiaijamal@gmail.com.

This is the first step in a larger archive project. I will be applying for funding over the summer to set up a proper website. If you have any images, documents, publications, banners, memories etc that you would like to share please do get in touch.
