 feminist, and writer, Audre Lorde, was a self-described "Black, lesbian, 
 mother, warrior, poet," who dedicated both her life and her creative talent 
 to confronting and addressing injustices of racism, sexism, classism, 
 capitalism, ableism, ageism, \nand anti-LGBTQ+, as well as exploring black 
 feminism and intersectionality, and other \nsocial movements 
 (Wiki).\n\nJoin us in understanding Audre Lorde’s teachings through a 
 lens of self-care, self-love, and self-determination. During this 
 interactive presentation, attendees will identify ways to prioritize 
 wellness, examine intersectional identities of womanhood, and explore 
 resources for a sustained self-care practice. \n\nEveryone is welcome to 
 attend.\n\nThree takeaways:\n\nParticipants will identify the triggers that 
 lead to burn out, gain practical tips for managing stress and understand 
 self-care principles that support well-being.\n\nParticipants will have a 
 greater understanding of intersectionality and the cross-section of race 
 and gender issues. Participants will connect how womxn with intersecting 
 identities (sexual identity, race, gender, ability status, socioeconomic 
 status, etc.) experience additional layers of bias, racism, and 
 discrimination.\n\nParticipants will understand how allies shift power 
 dynamics in dismantling systems that don’t work for everyone and creating 
 systems that do.\n\n\nAbout presenter, Desiree S. Coleman:\n\nDesiree S.
