Gender EDGE :
gender variant/trans/queer punk arts activism
Gender EDGE Quarterly Events BEGIN!!!
These events are just simply a way for each one of us to continue to join together and push forward for all things militant, trans, gender varied, and queer. Collectively this will reinforce our stance on keeping it all steadfastly DIY, punk driven, and not in any way formulated/proper. We don’t need to be shaking hands and enduring lengthy submission processes. We need to be speaking up, we need to stay fiery and pissed, we need to continue doing everything we can through our creativity to make solid efforts toward obtaining reachable social change for our gender variant/trans/queer community. Gender EDGE is easily accessible for all forms of art and thoughtful expression and it will always remain that way. So each one of us has such an opportunity here to unleash our art, release our emotions, and state strongly and consistently the empowerment that dwells within each of our souls as gender variant/queer/trans beings. Those who support us are just as welcome to attend and become involved. These events are open to everyone. There is a solid opportunity here to do something different and truly genuine for our community. Its no longer acceptable for society to not know how to treat us....to not know who we are and what we bring to the world. Within Gender EDGE there is no reason to focus on being so nice or official in any way……… and having power point presentations and stuffy sterile lectures……let's be loud, let’s make our points, let's ACTUALLY start to change some things with our art and our minds.
Each Gender EDGE quarterly event will include a performance aspect and an activist art gathering/planning session. Its a space to share your ideas, your art, your thoughts. Come out and support our collective, our movement, and our militant mission. NO MORE DESTROYED LIVES, NO MORE HIDDEN YEARS.
