The Furies
Rainbow History Project announces the online availability of The Furies newspaper (1972 -1973). The newspaper, published by Washington, DC's Furies collective from January 1972 to the middle of 1973 was an important source of lesbian feminsit separatist ideology in the early 1970s. The newspaper was widely distributed in the US. Commentary in the issues now online also traces some of the internal operations and issues of the collective and the attempt to continue publicaction following the dissolution of the collective.
All issues in Rainbow History's archives are now available online as Adobe pdf files. Because of the increasing acidification of the newsprint, the scanned images have a sepia tint. When Rainbow History acquires the missing issue (Volume 2 Number 1), it will be added to the online resources. The files run from 3 MB to 6 MB in size. The files can be accessed by clicking on the volume/number identification at www.rainbowhistory.org/furies.htm

Suppressed Histories Archives -
Women in Global Perspective
Suppressed Histories Archives - Women in Global Perspective "aims to uncover the realities of women's lives, internationally and across time, asking questions about patriarchy and slavery, conquest and aboriginality. About mother-right, goddess veneration, animist spirituality and shamanic arts -- and the historical chemistry of their repression. Even more important, their role in resisting oppression."
