Description:
This is a recording of Judy Simmons interviewing Audre Lorde during a late-night show on WBAI in New York. In this recording, Lorde reads selections out of her book The Black Unicorn, and the two women converse with listeners who call in to discuss poetry, differences between men and women, being African-American, and other topics. Possibly an episode of Simmons's program "On the real side," which aired on WBAI between 1979 and 1981.
The end of the recording is cut off.

Audio file QC (Pass One) notes:
Part A: Loud distortion drowns out conversation for first 20 seconds of recording. Hiss and buzz throughout recording. Contains reading of published poetry.
Part B: Hiss and buzz throughout recording. Music comes in around 20 minutes into the recording. Occasional silences seem to be inherent to the recording (technical difficulties) and some phone calls might have been censored.
Part C: Hiss and buzz throughout recording. Occasional silences seem to be inherent to the recording (technical difficulties) and some phone calls might have been censored.
Part D: Hiss and buzz throughout recording. Occasional silences seem to be inherent to the recording (technical difficulties) and some phone calls might have been censored. Cuts off mid-phone call - possibly there are more parts?
