This does come with the caveat that I can't quite remember if the characters in How to Find a Princess, Funeral Songs for Dying Girls, and Chain-Gang All-Stars identity specifically as lesbians or not, but they are all sapphic. Full titles under the cut!

EDIT: Apparently Alice Walker is a big proponent of a famous antisemitic conspiracy theorist, David Icke, so be aware of that when considering The Color Purple

don't get me wrong i am VERY excited for the color purple musical film it's gonna rock so hard but also. im gonna need the trailers to stop being like "look at this cute sister story <3 <3 <3" because halle bailey is probably gonna be in like 15 minutes of the film total and the rest of the film is just. every trigger warning possible. and i feel like people should know that going in

"You see, I think it pisses God off if you walk past the color purple and not notice it." "You saying God wants to be loved like it say in the Bible?" "Oh, everything and everybody wants to be loved. Especially God. That's why God be in everything. And see, when you love what God has made, you is loving God and God is loving you."
