Hi academic twitter! Someone show me around, I’m new here! 👋🏾

Today we celebrate the life and work of the amazing Audre Lorde (February 18, 1934-November 17, 1992), who transitioned on this day, 30 years ago. As a radical Black lesbian woman, her words continue to be an inspiration for Black feminist and queer survival to this day.
