Lesbian Visibility Week 2021 (26-30 April) has finally fallen upon us here in Wales.
The yearly celebration takes place to acknowledge the history, both good and bad, that lesbian women were a part of and continue to be a part of.
This year’s Lesbian Visibility Week takes place between 26 April and 2 May.
To celebrate the week-long event we’ve compiled a list of some essential books written by and about lesbians that you need to add to your bookshelf.
From inspirational memoirs to personal essays and feel-good stories to important historical texts, there’s plenty to get started with.
Lesbian Visibility Week was created by
DIVA publisher Linda Riley “both to celebrate lesbians and show solidarity with all LGBT+ women and non-binary people in our community”.
PinkNews recently honoured 19 lesbians making the world a better place featuring the likes of Kehlani, Billie Jean King, Karine Jean-Pierre, Mhairi Black and Sarah Paulson.

nd to celebrate and show solidarity with all LGBTQ+ women and non-binary people. Specifically, to celebrate our community members who identify as lesbian as a voice for unity and uplifting each other. Lesbian Visibility Week originally started as a day in 2008 and has since expanded to the full week by the organization Stonewall to “recognize, celebrate and support lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer women to be their true selves at work, home and socially.”
For the occasion, we would like to recognize different lesbian sports icons throughout the week who have and continue to make an important contribution to the field of sports in numerous ways.
