A lifetime of interviews reveal Audre Lorde's vision

by Anthony Glassman

At the intersection of race, sexual orientation and gender, one name is held up as a prophet, revered as a visionary, and honored both for her poetry and her activism over a dozen years after her death from cancer. Her name is Audre Lorde.

A new volume of the University Press of Mississippi's Literary Conversations Series, Conversations with Audre Lorde, edited by Joan Wylie Hall, examines her life through radio, television and print interviews conducted along the course of her life, giving the most complete prose autobiography of the great poet.

Born during the Depression in Harlem to immigrants from the West Indies, she and her siblings were given great intellectual freedom by their mother and their emotionally distant, yet still terrifying, father.

She started speaking very late, and had very poor eyesight as a child. Books, however, gave her an escape into a created world, and poetry was her only means of communication for years. When asked how she felt, or what color she liked, she would recite a poem containing the answer locked inside.

She traveled the earth, trying forever to integrate the various facets of her identity and struggling against those who would have her pick one side or the other of her persona. She chafed at African Americans who dismissed her as part of the predominantly white "gay girl" culture of Greenwich village, or the black students she taught in Mississippi who

Audre Lorde

rankled at her because she had children with a white man, or the gay culture for whom she was too black.

She visited her mother's home of Granada, she went to France, Mexico, journeyed across Africa, all in the name of truth and freedom. In the end, she discovered, "Since I have always been the outsider, it is again both an asset and a liability in my life and my work. A source of strength as well as a source of great vulnerability."
