Book Launch: Lesbian
Carlton, Woiwurrung Country, 309 Lygon St, Carlton, Victoria, 3053
Join us to celebrate the launch of Susan Hawthorne's Lesbian: Politics, Culture, Existence.
Across almost 50 years of writing, Susan Hawthorne’s essays on lesbian culture and politics take the reader on a journey through the concerns of radical feminists engaged in the Women’s Liberation Movement. Not only does she trace the experiments of lesbians creating a vibrant woman-loving culture, but she also traces the backlash against lesbians and a history of violence perpetrated by the state, corporations and individual men.
As a feisty feminist lesbian, teacher, psychologist and community advocate and tonight’s launcher Coleen Clare has worked to advance the position of women and children in society, championed diversity and inclusion. Since retirement, she has committed herself to advancing opportunities for lesbian connection, with a focus on food security and affordable housing.
