For the last twenty-five years, The Lesbian Avengers have been at the forefront of the fight for the rights of the LGBTQ community.

Now, with 2017 marking the 25th anniversary of the founding of The Lesbian Avengers, organizers are curating a mobile exhibit of the group’s history that can travel and be displayed in a number of places and capacities to reach new audiences.

”The Lesbian Avengers 25 exhibit proves that it’s possible to fight back,” Kelly Cogswell, a member of The Lesbian Avengers and the author of Eating Fire: My Life As A Lesbian Avenger, told The Huffington Post. “We have to. We’ve done it before, and we’ll do it again. It’s not magic. But sustained activism does make a difference.”

Cogswell added, “It also shows that you have to take a leap of faith. The whole thing only happened because six people sat down in a room and said, ‘We’re doing this, whether anybody joins us or not.’”

The Lesbian Avengers are currently engaged in an Indiegogo campaign in order to fund the 25th anniversary exhibit. Head here for more information and stay tuned for more from this seminal activist group in the very near future.
