Alexis Pauline Gumbs (L) and Audre Lorde (R)

We are excited to welcome the esteemed writer /poet Alexis Pauline Gumbs to Out FM, author of the magical, fascinating, inspiring new biography of poet Audre Lorde, entitled Survival Is A Promise: The Eternal Life of Audre Lorde.

Alexis describes herself as a queer, black, (self-described) troublemaker, Black Feminist Evangelist, and an aspirational cousin to all sentient beings.

Her work is grounded in a community ethic and as such has founded or been a member of UBUNTU- A Women of Color Survival Coalition to End Gendered Violence, Warrior Healers Organizing Trust, and The Earth Seed Land Collective in Durham North Carolina.

In addition she has participated in the work of Southerners On New Ground, Allied Media Projects, Black Women’s Blueprint and the International Black Youth Summit.

Other titles by her include:

Spill: Scenes of Black Feminist Fugitivity
