«Say who we are» - history and present of the lesbian movement in Switzerland
What links the recently deceased jazz pianist Irène Schweizer with the lesbian movement? Why did authors of the magazine Lesbenfront publish under pseudonyms? How did women's football influence the Lesbian Organization Switzerland (LOS)? Historian Luzia Knobel and Alessandra Widmer, co-director of the LOS, reflect on the concerns of the lesbian movement in the 1970s, as well as current resistance strategies. This salon is dedicated to unheard, emancipatory stories of lesbian activism and shows how it continues to question the supposedly given order today.
