Beschreibung
I Am Your Sister collects Audre Lorde's non-fiction prose from 1976 to 1990, and it is the first volume to provide a full picture of Lorde's political work. The essays cover an impressive variety of topics: sexuality, race, gender, culture, class, parenting, disease, resistance, and power--both within the United States and across the African diaspora--and include her landmark works such as Sister Outsider and The Cancer Journals. The book places Lorde within a continuum of black feminisits--from Sojourner Truth, to Anna Julia Cooper, Amy Jacques Garvey, Lorraine Hansberry, and Patricia Hill Collins--and concludes with personal reflections from Alice Walker, Gloria Joseph, Johnnetta Betsch Cole, Beverly Guy-Sheftall, and bell hooks.
