The Atlanta Lesbian Feminist Alliance (ALFA) was founded in 1972 by a group of radical lesbians and disbanded in 1994. This collection includes the organizational records of ALFA as well as other southern organizations. It offers a selection of grassroots newsletters, journals and rare periodicals, many of which are now ephemeral and unavailable elsewhere. ALFA's activities are well documented in the self-produced monthly newsletter, "The Atalanta." It constitutes a unique resource on feminist and lesbian activism in the South, from the early 1970s to the present.
