This presentation offers outtakes of interviews with the Furies, a lesbian separatist collective from the early 1970s who published an underground newspaper with a national run. The group formed quickly and ended dramatically, with multiple purges, suspicion of FBI involvement, and numerous interpersonal conflicts—most of which they wrote about in their newspaper. Now, 50 years later, they’re talking—and the IRB-exempt study has turned more problematic with legal and ethical complications of authorship and representation. In this presentation, I offer some insights about the politics of voicing, focusing in particular on the process of attempting to ethically and respectfully listen to and represent other’s stories.
