If you’re interested in women and history, check out the following two websites:
1. Old Lesbian Oral Herstory Project: To gain an appreciation for how much things have changed for lesbians over the past century, visit this site and listen to older lesbians tell their stories. Uplifting and heartbreaking.
2. History and Women: Meet “wonderful, wanton, and wild women of history!” Read about women through the ages, from heroines to queens to a noble who used the blood of virgins to stay young (read the hair-raising post about Elizabeth Bathory. The YouTube video is worth watching too). Those profiled so far include Sappho and Radclyffe Hall.
If you know of other good history sites related to women, please let me know.
Enjoy your weekend.
