2/27 - Documentary screening, A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde and discussion with Dr. Aaron Brown, Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies.

Thursday, 02/27/2025, 12-2pm

The documentary A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde is the result of an eight year struggle to create a film that would expose a wide audience to Audre Lorde’s genius. First and foremost a poet, Audre Lorde’s work has contributed to social justice and visionary writing by providing countless examples of how to be brave, especially as an outsider, and do one’s work, using “whatever piece of power you own, no matter how small, in the service of what you believe.”
