Wednesday March 11 @ 6:30 p.m

Sudbury Indie Cinema, in association with Laurentian’s Faculty of Arts, and YWCA-Sudbury present the Canadian Premiere of the remastered 1995 documentary on feminist icon the poet Audre Lorde.

Audre Lorde’s poetry and politics have a deep resonance for many women to this day, and here in Sudbury. The author of numerous books of poetry, essays, and biography, her work has profoundly impacted intersectional feminism, q***r theory, and critical race studies. Consider:

“When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.”

“Your silence will not protect you.”

“For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. Racism and homophobia are real conditions of all our lives in this place and time. I urge each one of us here to reach down into that deep place of knowledge inside herself and touch that terror and loathing of any difference that lives here. See whose face it wears. Then the personal as the political can begin to illuminate all our choices.” Audre Lorde

It’s now 10 years since I first organized a WIFW edition for International Women’s Day (remember My Feminism at Thorneloe?) This year we are honouring those working in women’s services here in Sudbury. Many of you on this e-blast list have attended in the past and many of you are past honourees yourselves! Please consider making this event a IWD priority. We’d love to fill the house and celebrate women’s strength and resilience.
