Audre Lorde Socks
Description: since ending my marriage and moving to Buffalo, I have been thinking a lot about how good things cannot spark and grow in isolation. How we need community in order to heal, to learn, to liberate ourselves. Our communities are made up of our neighbors, our chosen family, our friends, the people who support us and who we support. I'm so grateful for the fab feminist community, the members of which have supported me since even before starting this business. I'm grateful for all the loving people who have been with me on this healing journey. And, I am grateful for my new family. "Without community there is no liberation." - Audre Lorde

Description: I've been thinking a lot lately about the power we give over to other people.. .worrying about what "they" might think of us, judge us for, say to or about us... And I think this quote from Audre Lorde is so helpful to reframe this anxiety. If I know myself, I know who I am and what I stand for and believe, then it really doesn't matter what someone else thinks or says, does it? . "Nothing I accept about myself can be used to diminish me" - Audre Lorde

Description: I am constantly reminding myself that the work I do as an artist is worthwhile and important. After all, if creative expression, if knowledge and art and writing weren't vital weapons against fascism... they wouldn't be desperately trying to get rid of it. The work of the artist is to turn her rage into flowers. - Audre Lorde

Description: I am holding onto the words of Audre Lorde to remind me that there is no one right way to move through this moment in time. We each have unique gifts, abilities and experiences we are bringing to the resistance of fascism, and also of antipathy. The most important thing, I think, is that we are each investing in the ways we can connect with one another and take care of one another. It happens in lots of little, daily steps. We fight back.
Description: My goal for the upcoming year is to pay attention to my beliefs and world view, and notice the big and small ways I can live my life more in alignment with those beliefs. Cultivating community, home, safety and belonging for everyone. . You are the one that you are looking for. - Audre Lorde
Description: The older I get the more I understand that I am hardly ever going to feel 'ready' for things in life. I just have to do them. The big, scary or hard things don't stop being big, scary or hard on their own. The only thing for it is to face them, one step at a time. . You become strong by doing the things you need to be strong for. - Audre Lorde
