It’s the quaint one in Greenwich Village with the sign outside that reads, “Men are admitted, but not welcome.”   In our last minisode of the year Karamia sadly tells Emily how we are 100 years too late to visit one of the first lesbian bars in the U.S., run by Eve Adams; an openly gay Jewish immigrant who was beaten down by the System. Join us as we discuss the discriminatory honeypot scheme by the police, her anarchist friends, and her lost anthology “Lesbian Love”. But get ready for waves of outrage when we talk about her charges which led to time in the workhouse and eventual deportation that deposited her right in the center of Nazi Europe.
