There is power in speaking your mind, sharing your story, and using your voice. Audre Lorde and her works embody this power, and showcase what can be done when we use our voices for change. As a writer and civil rights activist, Lorde's words are often infused with a strong sense of justice, with an eye toward social change.
Where there are Black people, there is a profound history. Although Black History Month began in America in 1976, the Black diaspora is rich and vast all around the world. In Canada, Black History Month was first officially recognized in 1995. At Audible, we are proud celebrants of Black creators and histories all year long, and you’re invited, 365. Black creators take us places where we need to go, with stories, both real and imagined, that come from the heart. We proudly invite you to enjoy their spoken words with us, today and every day. —The Audible Editors
