I’ll be speaking at the upcoming @fiercefestival event- The Living Room Talks, Sex(uality) and the City: Queer resistance in Neoliberal Spaces’ 💕 🌸 Details Date- Sunday 17th July Time- 2:30pm-4pm Venue- Warehouse Cafe @thewarehousecafe Speakers- Mo Moulton, Ajamu X, Yshee Black and Lacey Lou. ‘Late capitalism has produced British cities with a decline in industry, massive socioeconomic inequalities and an environment that is more hospitable to business than it is to human lives. Reflecting on the ways in which queer lives offer possibilities of resisting this bleak status quo, this panel considers queer lives that use the city as a springboard for ways of living that resist the lifecycles of capitalism, offering hope in an otherwise cataclysmic political landscape.’ The Living Room Talks Based loosely on the eighteenth-century French salon, the Living Room invites you in. Recognising the exclusivity of the salon, and its associations with heteronormativity, whiteness, and elitism, The Living Room instead seeks to promote the voices and experiences of LGBTQ+ folk, first nations/indigenous people, and QTIPOC. Reflecting on some of the themes that have informed the programming and artistic work of the Healing Gardens of Bab, the Living Room invites you in for conversations with local and international artists, activists and queer icons. The Living Room talks have been conceived by Hassan Hussain and Patrick Vernon. #birmingham #queer #lgbtq #pride #drag
