| Summary: | The issue of archives occupies a central place in the Lesbian activists of the 1970s and 1980s in the United States, highlighting interest – in communities under construction – to have access to their past to self-define and affirm their existence possibilities. This article addresses the archival practices of lesbian activists from the angle of the desire for transmission that animates them through the studies of activist texts produced between 1975 and 1990. Through these militant speeches, the need for a lesbian-feminist analysis is emerging, to work for reappropriation of past archive materials, creating corpus vectors of new meanings. Live archive productions (written, oral, photographic) encouraged by activists are stakeholders of a multiplication of the traces of lesbian lives, which sweeps past shortfalls, investing contemporary spaces and creating materials to be transmitted for future generations. Finally, the connections that take place between these trans-temporal lesbian experiments consolidate past transmissions processes, makes genealogies recreated and generations dialogue. |
