    Crying my eyes out after watching this, what a beautiful film! Everyone should know about this! As a 21 year old lesbian I can't begin to say how grateful I am for all the work these women did for our community, and it's so wonderful to see their lives and their love.

    Amazing. Young LGBT people in the West have a rich inheritance because of people like Arden, the volunteers and interviewees. The coalitions we have today in the community are not new, they are a continuation.

    Haha Edith is such as a character - Down to earth, funny and thoughtful.
    I imagine it’d be a hard listen for a homophobe because the stories of being young, discovering yourself and falling in love could just as easily be a story from straight guy with the change of a couple pronouns.
    This project is amazing.

    Fantastic! I'm an older lesbian, it's great to see my peers represented in our community, & our herstories documented.

    For a group of people who are so strong, amazing, courageous, brave and strong its interesting how often they need to be reminded how strong, amazing, courageous, brave and strong they are.

      Is it really? Would you say that about Marcus Garvey? It isn't surprising at all really when you put it in it's historical context.. only a person who has given the matter no thought at all could possibly say that..

    Do you know, Indian Central Force unable to provide peaceful Parliamentary Election in West Bengal, India. It is said that India has a strong and leathal Central Force. But, unfortunately, some Indian Central Force personnel fled away from the voting ground during pelting and other activities by the local culprits. If they can not control local bengali culprits how they can control the nation India? It seems that Indian Central Force is not lethal enough as projected. You are requested to watch videos of TV9 Bangla, Republic Bangla, ABP Ananda etc on 25th May, 2024.
