Audre Lorde Tea Towel
Black, lesbian, mother, warrior, poet: that’s how Audre Lorde described herself.
Born in February 1934, Lorde was also a feminist and civil rights activist whose work drew attention to the lived experience of oppression in a patriarchal, racist and homophobic society. For liberation movements to succeed, she argued in her trail-blazing collection of essays Sister Outsider, they must not only seek to find common ground in the experience of oppression: they must also recognise and embrace difference. Too often, feminism in the United States had focused on white women, ignoring the very different experiences of black, gay, working-class and disabled women.
Half Panama unbleached cotton (heavy weight, textured finish). Stitched on all four sides. Includes hanging loop. Measures approximately 48cm x 70cm.
Machine wash at 40 degrees max. We recommend that before you use your tea towel for the first time you wash it at least once to soften up the material and make it more absorbent for drying dishes. Please note size can vary slightly.
