It is that time of the year again! Lesbian Visibility Week, the initiative I created two years ago, is almost upon us. Team DIVA and I couldn’t be more delighted about the event. While we were always proud supporters of Lesbian Visibility Day, there is so much to celebrate in our wonderful rainbow community of women who love women. I hope you’ll agree that replacing a single day with a full week is something we should all be doing year in, year out.
For me, some of the stand-out events include “Inclusion in Sport” with Dawn Airey, Anita Asante, Amazin LeThi, Sam Adams and Chris Paouros, and the Ovo “Being Your Authentic Self” discussion, where Horse McDonald will be telling DIVA’s Char Bailey about her journey from the point where her sexuality almost destroyed her music career to having her portrait hanging proudly in the Scottish National Portrait Gallery.
