Vice, “Memories from the Lesbian London of the 1980s”

Filmmaker and artist Siobhan Fahey was a lesbian living in London at this time and is currently in the process of making a film about the period: Rebel Dykes, a documentary looking at the lives of her friends—a gang of lesbian separatist punk anarchists based mostly around Brixton.
