“Those of us who stand outside of this society’s definition of acceptable women; those of us who have been forged in the crucibles of difference – those of us who are poor, who are lesbians, who are Black, who are older – know that survival is not an academic skill. It is learning how to stand alone, unpopular and sometimes reviled, and how to make common cause with those others identified as outside the structures in order to define and seek a world in which we can all flourish.”

— 

Audre Lorde, Sister Outsider

“Survival is not an academic skill.” “Survival is not an academic skill.” “Survival is not an academic skill.”
