We are forever grateful for all of the teachers and ancestors in our erotic lineage. We work towards being the Youngest Ancestors in this noble line of loving souls.

Other Teachers In Our Erotic Lineage:
★ We will forever be grateful for the work of Black lesbian feminist hero Audre Lorde. Here is a newly updated recording where she reads the essay The Uses Of The Erotic As Power, and shares teachings that are at the core of everything we do. We listen to this several times a year to be reminded of our purpose. “For the erotic is not a question only of what we do; it is a question of how acutely and fully we can feel in the doing.” ~ Audre Lorde
★ A bright mind pushing back on the confines of his privilege, Foucault offered frameworks for understanding power, language and identity that are essential for paving a path to erotic liberation. “There are forms of oppression and domination which become invisible – the new normal.” ~ Michel Foucault
★ Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld is the most influential person in the sexuality field that you’ve probably never heard of. His story is simply amazing, and needs to be made into a soaring biopic soon. In the mean time, listen to this podcast about this early intellectual activist whose library was one of the very first target of Nazi book burnings. Much was lost in those burnings, but, thankfully, not his legacy.
