“Coming from a time when women were still associated with the private sphere, those relationships would be felt as very private, but with the lesbian feminist generation, being very visible and saying this is my identity and creating community around that identity, moving from the private to the public sphere, it really changed how people felt about sexuality." - Nadine Boulay
For episode 9 we spoke to Nadine Boulay about her interview with Christine and Robin, seminal figures in Vancouver queer activism in the 70’s and 80’s, family politics in the queer experience, and how the concept of sexuality has shifted over time.
Look for our next episode with Liz Kennedy most famously known for co-authoring "Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold: The History of A Lesbian Community," which required a lot of oral interviewing of the the lesbian community in Buffalo, New York in the decades before Stonewall. We listen to one of her interviews from her research for that book and discuss the changing tides of feminism and queer politics.
