520    "At once a searing indictment of a racist, patriarchal 
       society and a manual for claiming an intersectional 
       identity, Sister Outsider is a comprehensive collection of
       the lauded poet and writer Audre Lorde's most famous and 
       influential works of nonfiction prose. Sister Outsider 
       depicts the idea of "difference"--Whether through race, 
       gender, or sexuality--as a powerful tool for empowerment 
       that can be used as a catalyst for change. Throughout the 
       fifteen essays and speeches that comprise the volume, 
       Lorde asserts that because she is a black, queer woman, 
       she is considered an outsider, but that it is precisely 
       her outsider perspective that allows her to see the 
       various layers of identity-based oppression. A pioneer of 
       intersectional feminism, Sister Outsider encourages the 
       reader to embrace their difference and weaponize it for 
       change, a once-radical 20th-century idea that has become a
       full-blown movement today. Penguin Classics launches a new
