Black Queer Poetry Showcase

Voices of Vienna's Black poetry community come together for a joint poetry performance addressing the realities and imagination of Black existence in this here world. What place does this space provide? What is movement within and without those margins? What does it look like collectively and individually? Thoughts translated in the language center and out of our mouths into the ears of those to listen - a continuation of thought from last year's Black Queer Poetry Showcase.

“Queer' not as being about who you're having sex with (that can be a dimension of it); but 'queer' as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.”
