Movie night: Lesbian avengers eat fire too
Pottenkijkers is teaming up with publisher Valiz and Cafe Saarein to organise a special screening of Lesbian Avengers Eat Fire Too (1993) - a film by Su Friedrich and Janet Baus. This documentary film gives a peek into the revolutionary activist group called the Lesbian Avengers. The group was known for their literal fire eating practice with which they tried to gain visibility.
A manifesto by the Lesbian Avengers is featured in Valiz’s newest publication: Love and Lightning by Sarah van Binsbergen, Liz Allan, Jessica Gysel, Sara Kaaman (eds.)
‘Love & Lightning’ is an inconclusive, thematically ordered collection of queer, feminist, and queer-feminist manifestos. The 83 manifestos highlighted in this book cross borders, refuse binary logics, transcend our concepts of time and space and surpass the neoliberal logic.
This anthology is published by Valiz and Girls Like Us Magazine. Valiz is an independent publisher from Amsterdam, Girls Like Us is a queer feminist publication platform in Brussels.
