Also important for people to know that transphobic feminists have never been representative of radical feminists or lesbians, despite how they try to portray themselves. They're not the "one true feminism" or guardians of "pure" lesbian culture, despite what they claim.

Berson also mentions that Stone did the sound for an album of Judy Grahn and Pat Parker reading their poetry. Stone said hearing them both read was a spiritual experience and I can believe it. I hope Sandy Stone writes her own memoir someday, I'd love to read it.

Ginny Berson's memoir is called Olivia on the Record and it's on Hoopla, so if you have a card at a library hooked up with Hoopla you can read it for free. Pretty interesting look at radical lesbian culture, women's music and separatism.pic.twitter.com/QTBPd4GxSg
