On #WorldPoetryDay, we honor #AudreLorde, an acclaimed Black poet and activist who taught at three CUNY colleges: @LehmanCollege, John Jay College, and her alma mater @Hunter_College. Her poetry tackled sexism, classism, and racial and social justice in America.

It’s only been a year since @NYCSpeakerAdams introduced the idea of @CUNY Reconnect and already 16,000+ students have re-started their education through the program. We're grateful to have her and @NYCCouncil as partners and we look forward to our continued work together.
Since @CUNY Reconnect launched with @NYCCouncil funding, it has welcomed over 16k returning students, 60% of whom are women and 82% belong to our Black, Latino, and AAPI communities. For working women like Karina, this program offers a second chance. #PeopleOverEverything
