Your Silence Will Not Protect You collects the essential essays and poems of Audre Lorde for the first time, including the classic `The Master´s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master´s House´. A trailblazer in intersectional feminism, Lorde´s luminous writings have inspired a new generation of thinkers and writers charged by the Black Lives Matter movement.

Her lyrical and incisive prose takes on sexism, racism, homophobia, and class; reflecting struggle but ultimately offering messages of hope that remain ever-more trenchant today. Also a celebrated poet, Lorde was New York State Poet Laureate until her death; her poetry and prose together produced an aphoristic and incomparably quotable style, as evidenced by her constant presence on many Women´s Marches against Trump across the world.

This beautiful edition honours the ways in which Lorde´s work resonates more than ever thirty years after they were first published.
