The featured text is entitled Your Silence Will Not Protect You! – The Writing of Audre Lorde. This Reading and Discussion series provides participants an opportunity to discuss Lorde’s writings as they explore issues of race, class, gender, and sexuality. Lorde’s powerful voice, documented in her poems, essays, speeches, biomythography and Cancer Journals, remain vital and instructive. The text provides keen insight into the differences that strengthen American society.
