Lorraine O'Grady's 1980-81 performance, Mlle Bourgeoise Noire, has been put online for the first time. The synopsis—including backstory and poems, plus the 13 images of "Mlle Bourgeoise Noire Goes to the New Museum"—is the latest headline of "WACK! Art and the Feminist Revolution." The permanent link is: http://www.moca.org/wack/?p=230

MOCA has also posted O'Grady's March 22 Gallery Talk remarks on "white middle-class feminism" and the "spatial vs chronological timelines of global feminism" at: http://www.moca.org/wack/?p=203
