When
1978-02
Description
February Toronto The Fireweed Collective was formed, with members Gay Allison, Lynne Fernie, Hilda Kirkwood, and Charlene Sheard. The collective's goal was to publish Fireweed, a feminist journal that would "publish work from women in all cultures and classes so that a diversity of views can be shared." Fireweed was committed to publishing work by lesbians in each issue. The first issue of Fireweed (Autumn 1978) was launched during the Fireweed Festival, held at Harbourfront September 22–24, 1978. (See also September 22–24, 1978.)
