Join Sacred Voices as we watch the documentary The Edge of Each Other's Battles: A Vision of Audre Lorde. This powerful documentary is a moving tribute to legendary black lesbian feminist poet Audre Lorde (1934-1992). One of the most celebrated icons of feminism's second wave, Lorde inspired several generations of activists with her riveting poetry, serving as a catalyst for change and uniting the communities of which she was a part: black arts and black liberation, women's liberation and lesbian and gay liberation.

After the showing, we will discuss the following questions:

• How does Audre Lorde's concept of intersectionality intersect with her activism and writing, as depicted in the documentary? How does she challenge conventional understandings of race, gender, and sexuality?

• Audre Lorde often spoke about the necessity of coalition-building and solidarity among marginalized groups. How does the documentary illustrate her vision of unity and collaboration in the face of oppression? What lessons can modern activists learn from her approach?

• Towards the film's end, Audre Lorde reflects on the importance of self-care and resilience in the face of oppression. How did she conceptualize self-care as a political act, and how does this idea resonate with current conversations about burnout and activism fatigue.
