Description

Not heat nor snow nor gloom of night shall keep these dykes from the swift completion of their appointed missions: They are the Lesbian Avengers. They eat fire, ward off evil-doers, fly to the aid of lesbians in need, challenge the Christian Right at every turn, raise statues, cut hair, start Dyke Marches, tell stories, tell herstories, and motivate lesbians around the world to take action and be visible. This fifty-five minute video tape documents their many actions, marches and celebrations and offers a few good tips about how dykes can take the streets, take power, take their lives into their own hands. EAT FIRE TOO provides an insiders look at the first year of this all-out, all-lesbian direct action group, The Lesbian Avengers.
