🔥 TAKE BACK THE STAGE: Radical Trans & Queer Mic, Slam & Art Share (18+) 🔥
Listen Up, Binghamton Queers & Trans Folx! ✊
Bring Your Rage. Bring your joy. Bring your Resistance.
Systems of oppression try to erase us, silence us, break us. But we resist! The Rainbow Alliance, using space at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Binghamton, is carving out room for US. This isn't just another polite open mic or art show – it's fuel for the fire. It's raw, unapologetic LGBTQ+ expression (18+ ONLY).
🎤 Unleash Your Truth. 🎨
Got poetry that bites back at the cis-het patriarchy? Songs of queer rage and resilience? Stories they tried to bury? Art that screams defiance? BRING IT. This is the space to sharpen our creative weapons, forge bonds in shared struggle, and make sure our realities are seen, heard, and felt. No filters, no apologies.
