Documentary
Audre Lorde was a poet, teacher, mother, Black lesbian, activist, and warrior, and she refused to let anyone separate those identities. This 1995 documentary, made by Ada Gay Griffin and Michelle Parkerson, draws on archival footage, interviews, and readings of Lorde’s poetry to chronicle a life that bridged movements and demanded that none of them leave anyone behind. QWOCMAP screens this film because the work Lorde called for, naming ourselves, refusing silence, insisting that our survival is not academic, is still the work.
