This week on FemRadio, out west coast correspondent Stacey Copeland takes us back to the early days of lesbian feminist media. She is joined by Silva Tenenbein, the founder of one of Canada’s first queer feminist radio shows, “The Lesbian Show” on Vancouver Co-Op Radio in 1979. A former university professor, queer activist, and public speaker, Silva reflects back on the early days of lesbian identity politics and the importance of feminist radio on our airwaves.
And Emily and Rae have your Canadian feminist news headlines, stuff we're digging this week, and Toronto femme-friendly events.
