Le***ans are Miracles (***ansaremiracles) No 6: 🔥 The Black Le***an Rises 🔥, guest edited by , founder of ***anarchives, is HERE!

Huge thank you to Lisa Cannistraci and Ms. Alyce Emory and Wen Peguero of for lending us your time, knowledge, wisdom, and grace. As always, enormous gratitude to all of our contributors and collaborators who made this issue possible!

Krü writes,

The Black Le***an Rises speaks to the embodiment of the Black woman, the Black le***an rising from the ashes like the phoenix! Throughout LGBTQ+ history, there has been an intentional erasure of le***ans, specifically Black le***ans, and of our revolutionary contributions around the globe! 

I’ve seen the Legacy of our Elders (Owl and Wise alike), the shoulders that we stand on be disrespected within and often suppressed from the community. Young and even elder le***ans shy away from claiming and being le***an because of stigmas, societal expectations, and the lack of understanding of our true herstory. 

But if you only knew how rich we are! How rich our stories are! It’s time to get back to our roots. We come from lineages of godmothers, elders, and ancestors that had a vision, not for just le***ans but for the entire world. Archivists, builders, artists, holistic health practitioners, astrologers, warriors, activists. Everything we are. 

We Rise because there’s a transformative power in the Black le***an. 

We Rise for the women that have paved the way for us. 

We Rise because we’ve always been here!

Happy Aries Season y’all and New Year! Hope all the seasons treated you good up until this point.

Speaking of a new journey! The BLA just finished up The ACHÈ Project Virtual Exhibit and is now kicking off The Mobile Herstory Bus Project 🎉

We are in the between stages of where we have been and where do we go from here?

Thank y’all for everybody that came thru!!!

Join us in a talk back/discussion with Dagmar Schultz and Briona Simone Jones about the Berlin Years 1984 - 1992 Film. March 14th , 2021 @ 4PM EST!

www.audrelorde-theberlinyears.com/berlin.html #.YCMRlCVOnDs

“Audre Lorde - the Berlin Years 1984 to 1992 documents Audre Lorde's influence on the German political and cultural scene during a decade of profound social change, a decade that brought about the fall of the Berlin Wall and the re-unification of East and West Germany. This chronicles an untold chapter of Lorde’s life: her empowerment of Afro-German women, as she challenged white women to acknowledge the significance of their white privilege and to deal with difference in constructive ways.
Ika Hügel-MarshallSupported by Lorde’s example Afro-German women began to write their history and their stories and to form political networks on behalf of Black people in Germany. As a result authors such as May Ayim, Katharina Oguntoye and Ika Hügel-Marshall published their works. Audre Lorde - The Berlin Years 1984 to 1992 outlines Lorde’s contributions to the German discourse on racism, xenophobia, antisemitism, classism, and homophobia within the Black movement and the Black and white women’s movement, a discourse alive and growing today. Present-day interviews explore the lasting influence of Lorde’s ideas and the impact of her work and personality.
Litany for SurvivalThe relationship between Audre Lorde and Germany was mutually beneficial. During these years, Audre’s diagnosis of terminal cancer left her American doctors without hope for her survival. Berlin became her third home where she received naturopathic treatment in part responsible for the next eight years of her life.
The film represents an important addition to the documentary “A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde” by Ada Gray Griffin and Michelle Parkerson which was screened at the 45th Berlin Film Festival in 1995.”
