Audre Lorde
Type: Person
As of November 2026, Audre Lorde has been mentioned in one podcast episode on We Can Do Hard Things (Nov 2025). Quoted to support the idea that self-acceptance and naming one’s story ‘defangs’ weaponization—reinforcing the defense of memoir and women speaking publicly.
Audre Lorde was an American writer, professor, philosopher, intersectional feminist, poet, and civil rights activist. She was a self-described "Black, lesbian, feminist, socialist, mother, warrior, poet" who dedicated her life and talents to confronting all forms of injustice and oppression. She believed that there could be "no hierarchy of oppressions" among "those who share the goals of liberation and a workable future for our children".
