About this Event
Toni Cade Bambara wrote that "the role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible."
As we approach this inevitability, we get to decide, a revolution for whom? Please join us for an evening of art, performance, and poetry that also invites us to evolve past hegemony, past mere identitarianism, and into the queer and trans liberatory futures we all deserve.
