Fabulous Activist Bay Area Lesbians with Disabilities: A Storytelling Project - FABLED ASP

Disability: The history of disabled lesbians is one that has largely been omitted, obscured, or misappropriated. When we look at historical timelines and archives, we often do not see our names, even though disabled lesbians have been at the forefront of innovations in community, arts, culture, and social justice movements.

Lesbian activists with disabilities weave their two identities together to create a unique narrative of community, interdependence and unprecedented models for access to our entire society.

We recall those who came before, celebrate those who will come after, and mourn the reality that some disabled lesbians choose to go unnamed due to political oppression.

Disabled lesbians exist. We count, we dance, we love, we make love, we are human! It is time to honor us.
