Abstract

This article proposes a historical framework and characterizes the activist performance present in documentary background Trabajo y Estudios
Lésbicos/Casa de la Mujer El Salón de las Preciosas (National Archive from Santiago of Chile). This documentary background was labeled,
cataloged and digitized by me for the purposes of my PhD thesis (2019). In this article, I review the historical background of a lesbofeminist
activism in Chile, whose main tool of resistance was radio. Along with it, I characterize his main performances and tactics, which embodied to
this particular radial activism.
