From the Foreward by Minnie Bruce Pratt:
Many of us are here, beautiful and various in the light of these photographs, convinced of the importance of seeing each other, knowing that to claim our selves openly and fully is to lay claim to survival and joy.... The photographs disclose the vital work of lesbians as we invent our lives, and the passionate, committed work of lesbians within many political movements.... These pictures urge us to see our selves, our fire of life, to imagine and create a future where we see each other, distinctly, in all our differences, and honor each other there.
