Lesbian Avengers

The Lesbian Avengers prioritized direct action and grassroots organizing, using bold tactics to capture the attention of both spectators and the media. They were known for their fire-eating ritual, which began after the 1992 murders of Hattie Mae Cohen, an African-American lesbian, and Brian Mock, a white gay man with a disability. https://www.wbur.org/artery/2019/06/17/lesbian-avengers
