Alexis Pauline Gumbs is our special guest at The NewSouth Bookstore on Thursday, March 20 at 5:30pm. She visits with her extraordinary new biography on Audre Lorde, iconic poet/writer and teacher, feminist and activist, titled Survival Is a Promise: The Eternal Life of Audre Lord. In the book, Gumbs probes how Lorde’s life was animated by awareness of her place in the cosmos and a desire to be one with the earth in her life, writing, and politics. Come meet Gumbs and learn more about the enduring legacy of Audre Lorde.
