Women and Children First\: Memories and Archives
Relive the excitement of W&\;CF’s 30th Anniversary Celebration last October as the Chicago Area Women’s History Council presents a premiere showing of the videotaped interviews conducted at the event. CAWHC members will discuss how you can participate in their larger project “Documenting the Women’s Movement in Chicago\, 1960s – 1980s\,” while Beth Myers from the Women and Leadership Archive at Loyola will share information about this important repository and the W&\;CF collection there. If you have memories or documents about W&\;CF\, don’t miss this event. If you were part of the feminist movement in Chicago\, CAWHC needs your help!

The latest monthly installment of our popular salon night for lesbians and their friends features writers Jennie Brier and Elana Dykewomon. In her book Infectuous Ideas\: U.S. Political Response to the AIDS Crisis\, UIC Professor Jennie Brier charts the complex social and political climate of the 1980s and ‘90s through the lens of the AIDS crisis. Elana Dykewomon\, formerly editor of the journal Sinister Wisdom\, is the author of the Lambda Literary Award-winning brilliant lesbian classic\, Beyond the Pale. Her new novel\, Risk\, examines the life of Carol Schwartz\, a community activist and idealist who routinely puts it all on the line\; but when the stakes become too high\, will she gamble more than she can afford to lose? This event is co-sponsored by the Lesbian Leadership Council of the Chicago Foundation for Women. Proceeds benefit the artists and the Women’s Voices Fund.
