After joining VISTA (Volunteers In Service To America) in 1968, she came to Atlanta, and together with other feminists, founded the Atlanta Lesbian Feminist Alliance (ALFA - 1972 to 1994), and later DARII (Dykes for the Second American Revolution). She trained at the People's College of Law in Los Angeles (1976-79) and went on to work with the National Jury Project, Georgia Legal Services, the EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) in New York City (October 1999 to January 2004), and Georgia's Lambda Legal Education Defense Fund (2006-2012). She was a member of the short-lived Queer Progressive Agenda (QPA), and is currently a supporter of First Existentialist Congregation of Atlanta's Social Justice Guild, the Georgia Peace and Justice Coalition, Charis Books, the Atlanta Grandmothers for Peace, SAGE Atlanta, and Southerners on New Ground.</dc:description><dc:format>image/jp2</dc:format><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:publisher>Atlanta, Ga. : Georgia State University Library</dc:publisher><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC-EDU/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:source>Lorraine Fontana papers</dc:source><dc:source>https://archivesspace.library.gsu.edu/repositories/2/resources/1517</dc:source><dc:source>SERIES IX: Textiles</dc:source><dc:source>Archives for Research on Women and Gender</dc:source><dc:subject>Lesbians and sports</dc:subject><dc:subject>Lesbian feminism</dc:subject><dc:subject>Atlanta Lesbian Feminist Alliance</dc:subject><dc:title>ALFA 1972-1982 [t-shirt], 1982</dc:title><dc:type>StillImage</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
