March Hares Tea Table

Happy birthday, Audre Lorde! (February 18, 1934)

A prominent Black lesbian poet and activist, Audre Lorde’s work deals with themes of feminism, identity, discrimination, struggle, and civil rights. Born in New York, Lorde began writing poems in eighth grade and gained prominence throughout the 1960s as a young poet on the rise. Lorde was highly influential in the field of Black feminism, often clashing with white feminists whose feminism served to reinforce the oppression of Black women. She was also an anticapitalist who experienced discrimination in left-wing circles due to the fact that she was a lesbian. Throughout her life, Lorde published a number of poems, books, essays, and speeches, and today is regarded as one of the finest poets in American history.
