Talk:Common Lives/Lesbian Lives

message: I guess I should say that, first off, I am writing a series of articles on significant projects in lesbian and feminist publishing, articles like Sinister Wisdom, Press Gang Publishers, ect. I believe that this article is an important part of lesbian and feminist publishing history, and a significant epoch in the lesbian cultural history of the 1980's and 1990's.
Common Lives/Lesbian Lives was a cultural milestone in the lesbian publishing world, as it was the first lesbian journal or magazine published from outside of the urban/coastal New York/Los Angeles/Berkley scene. The American Heartland, Iowa - not known to be a congenial environment for lesbians to my knowledge. As such, I think the survival of the project for 15 years is kind of a coup.
I think the topic is noteworthy because:
* It was a rurally-based project, unlike most publishing endeavors.
* The Journal was organized and published collectively.
* The material from the project has been archived at the Iowa Women's Archives Library, and so it is an academic resource for lesbian or feminist historians.
* As a lesbian historian I can attest to how difficult it is to find material about my cultural history, and I believe it is important to preserve and make available that material which we have.
I will close by saying I have been in no way associated with the magazine, I have no conflict of interest here. I have written the article solely in the interest of providing historical information.
