This year to honor and celebrate Women’s History Month, LSC will be sharing historical events and figures, Women’s rights movements, firsts in History, and Leather history. When our Constitution was written, it was silent on Women. Excluded from most of the rights and privileges of citizenship, Women operated in limited and rigid roles while enslaved Women were excluded from all. Yet BIPOC Women have actively participated as citizens—organizing, marching, petitioning—since the founding of our country.
The accomplishments of Women of Color need to be a bigger part of U.S. History. LSC honors the efforts, sacrifices and victories of the Women of Color who fought for the right to vote, freedom and equality.

Meet The Leather Solidarity Collective
Amid the groundswell of the George Floyd and Black Lives Matter protests that rang loudly across the nation and the globe in 2020, a group of passionate folks in Leather, BDSM, and Kink Communities banded together to bring antiracist activism to our own Leather/Kink Lifestyle Community through a series of several virtual town halls—"Navigating Racism During Two Pandemics." Our 2021 efforts include a full 3-Day conference to celebrate People of Color and BIPOC Allies in Leather and Kink!
