Upcoming Events

Healing Justice Political Education Cypher

When: 
Thursday, September 11, 2025 - 6:00pm
Facilitated by community healer Jennelle Ramdeen, this introductory workshop will root our organizing work in Healing Justice. 
 
Together, we’ll explore our roots and the safety, love, and community that nourish our soil. Guiding questions will include: What is healing? What has it meant for our lineages and communities? How do we identify what is - or can be considered - healing justice? 
 
Participants will leave with a historical grounding of healing justice, an understanding of its contemporary framework, and space for personal reflection on what healing means in their own lives. This workshop will invite journaling, reflection, and collective sharing.

ALP Community Meeting

Tuesday, September 16, 2025 - 6:30pm

Join the Audre Lorde Project for our upcoming Community Meeting, an open space for QTBIPOC community members to connect, share updates, and ground in the current political moment.

In the face of ongoing violence, displacement, and repression, it is more important than ever for QTBIPOC to be in community, build power, and organize together. We will share updates on ALP's work, collective needs, and organizing goals.

We hope to see you there and look forward to being in community with you.

Join us on Saturday, September 20 for Community Care Day, an annual ALP healing justice tradition rooted in collective care, abolitionist values, and ancestral traditions of healing. From 1–5 PM, QTBIPOC practitioners will offer free, community-based healing services including reiki, massage, acupuncture (both needles and ear seeds), and more. We’ll also be offering hands-on workshops where folks can learn reiki and ear seeding to heal themselves and their communities. This is a space for restoration, reconnection, and resistance.

Highlights from ALP

Statement

On Sam Nordquist and Transphobia

February 18, 2025

The Audre Lorde Project sends condolences to the family and friends of Sam Nordquist. Sam, a 24-year-old Black Trans Man from Minnesota, was tortured and killed in upstate NY. Sam and all the lives of our TGNC people are sacred. All of the Trans People of Color that we’ve lost to violence across New York deserve justice and to have their lives honored through radical, concrete change.
