National Lesbian Visibility Day (Dia Nacional da Visibilidade Lésbica) is observed in Brazil every August 29 to celebrate the L in LGBTQ+ and highlight the challenges faced by lesbian women. The day commemorates the first National Lesbian Seminar held on August 29, 1996, and was established by Brazilian lesbian activists. Events and activities are organized by various LGBTQ+ organizations, gender and sexuality departments at universities, and government ministries. The first independent lesbian organization in Brazil, the Feminist Lesbian Action Group (GALF), played a significant role in increasing lesbian visibility through activism and publications, notably through their newspaper ChanacomChana and the 1983 protest at Ferro’s Bar in São Paulo, which is often referred to as the “Brazilian Stonewall.” National Lesbian Visibility Day underscores the resistance of queer women against oppression and their ongoing struggle for rights in a country that has made significant strides in LGBTQ+ equality.
