Comments

The US black feminist theorist and poet Audre Lorde is widely referenced and revered as a founding mother of contemporary feminism, queer theory, and anti-racist activism. However, she is rarely read as a distinctive and rigorous philosopher. In this seminar, we will read Lorde as a theorist who demands intensive study and deep philosophical reflection. Through close reading and discussion of Lorde’s essays, poetry, speeches, interviews, and long-form writing, we will examine the cohesive philosophical commitments undergirding Lorde’s thought. The seminar will examine Lorde’s theories about selfhood and identity, the role of feelings in knowledge, obstacles and strategies for political coalition, “the erotic” as an epistemic and political resource, and the role of inheritance, trauma, and pedagogy in long-term societal change.
