Sinister Wisdom 126: Out of Control is a record of the imaginative creations, aspirations, relations, and life histories of the radical lesbian ancestors of our dreams-the organization Out of Control: Lesbian Committee to Support Women Political Prisoners. In the late twentieth century-an era of foreign wars, the rapid growth of the prison industrial complex (PIC), and increasingly alienating consumer culture and technology this group of self-proclaimed "dykes from hell" convened, bonded, and strengthened. Toward one an-other, they softened and became steadfast, creating profound friendships and partnerships that formed the building blocks for living their politics in the real world. The members of Out of Control shared a radical stance from which they lived their lives as lesbian, antiracist, feminist abolitionists dedicated to the support of their incarcerated comrades.

Sinister Wisdom 126: Out of Control celebrates this work.
