The Audre Lorde Project HHNY

"Our speaking out will irritate some people, get us called bitchy or hypersensitive and disrupt some dinner parties. And then our speaking out will permit other women to speak, until laws are changed and lives are saved and the world is altered forever. Next time, ask: What's the worst that will happen? Then push yourself a little further than you dare.Once you start to speak, people will yell at you. They will interrupt you, put you down and suggest it's personal. And the world won't end. And the speaking will get easier and easier."

Show that you care and please join us at Henrietta Hudson in making a difference the PRIDE week 2020.  We are  raising money to benefit The Audre Lorde Project Inc [ALP], in loving memory of our dear friend and protector Storme De Larverie. Stormé DeLarverie was a butch lesbian whose scuffle with police was, according to Stormé and many eyewitnesses, the spark that ignited the Stonewall riots, spurring the crowd to action. She walked the streets at night and  worked the clubs in NYC for decades protecting young queer folks from gay bashing. She was larger than life. A force to be reckoned with. Our Superhero!
