6. Zami: A New Spelling of My Name - you are who you're surrounded by

Starting off Pride month strong with Audre Lorde! In this episode, I’m joined by Chase, who insisted I read Zami —and for once, I'm glad I took his advice (unlike the time he insisted it was fine to crash in my dorm while I was out of town, but we’ll get into that in the episode).

Together, Chase and I discuss intersectionality, the concept of the "mythical norm," and the powerful act of self-naming within the queer community. We also delve into how Lorde's life story unfolds through her relationships with the women around her.
