"The Dykes and Their Friends Between Revolutions" is Lambda Archives of San Diego's adaptation of the 1977 book title "The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions" by Larry Mitchell. Mitchell's visionary work imagined queer liberation through allegorical storytelling, offering a radical vision of community, resistance, and survival during a time of intense political struggle for LGBTQ+ rights. By centering "Dykes" in the series title, we honor the specific histories, activism, and cultural contributions of lesbian and queer women in our region—communities whose stories have often been marginalized even within LGBTQ+ historical narratives. Like Mitchell's original work, our series explores the spaces "between revolutions"—those crucial moments of organizing, community-building, and resilience that sustain movements for justice across generations. This event series includes an exhibit featuring original archival material from our collection that showcases the history of LGBTQ+ lesbian organizing, arts, advocacy, and political struggles in the San Diego-Tijuana region.

EDITOR’S NOTE: San Diego District Attorney Summer Stephan is disputing the story KPBS reported on racial disparities in special charges that can lead to life without parole. KPBS’s story relied on a data analysis from a researcher who attributed cases to DAs based on disposition date. The DA’s office provided an analysis that attributed cases to DAs based on filing date. It showed no racial disparity in making these special charges against Black and white defendants when looking only at multiple murder cases during DA Stephan’s tenure. KPBS has clarified the story to include more detail about the analysis and the data it used. Go to the story to learn more.
