Audre Lorde’s powerful voice, documented in her poems, essays, speeches, biomythography and Cancer Journals, remain vital and instructive. It is not only worth reading for its own sake, but continues to provide keen insight into the differences that strengthen American society. This three-part series, led by Allyson Martinez and Yvette Mendes, provides participants an opportunity to discuss Lorde’s writings as they explore issues of race, class, gender, and sexuality, while focusing on personalized self-care.
Detailed information and reading syllabus for all sessions will be available soon. Several readings will be explored within the three part workshop series.
Space is limited and participants are encouraged to register for the entire series. Self care packages will be mailed to participants who register before March 5th, pick up will be available for RSVPs made after that date.
This series is possible through a generous grant by the Humanities New York Foundation and in partnership with Brooklyn Level Up.
