Spis vegansk mad fra folkekøkkenet (husk tilmelding som altid), køb zines fra de famøse, omdiskuterede Queer Jihad til en 5er pr. stk. og lyt til fantastisk fint musik fra Rae Spoon.
Rae Spoon is a transgender folk/indie singer/songwriter. His music is described as a "new skool folk", "cowboy-folk that’s armed to the teeth with punk rock attitude"
Rae Spoon was born on the Canadian prairies of the 80’s. In his early twenties he hit the road as one of the world’s only transgender country singers and toured Canada, Europe, Australia and the USA. When the obvious dangers and contradictions of this role caught up to him he hid in a small town in Eastern Germany for a winter. There he was inspired to write an album about his darker experiences of Canada and it’s highways.
Musically he traverses new territories from art folk, to indie-rock, to electronic/experimental and noise. Being in Europe influenced him to trade his banjo for a computer and his acoustic guitar for an electric.
Du husker måske hele mediesagen om Queer Jihad's zine, der i anledning af de mange hate crimes (voldelige overfald baseret på tilhörsforhold til en bestemt gruppe, i dette tilfælde seksuel orientation) opfordrede til at slå tilbage. Find dette BASH-BACK zine blandt mange andre gode og aktuelle udgivelser.
Queer Jihad skriver selv:
"Queer Jihad vil have bedre forhold for queers af alle slags og på alle måder, alle steder, hele tiden.
Vi kæmper mod alle former for diskrimination og undertrykkelse, herunder især heterosexisme, dvs. ideen om, at heteroseksualitet (og de traditionelle kønsroller) er den eneste rigtige og sunde seksualitet, og at alt andet er (måske acceptabelt, men altid) forkert. Homofobi er en form for heterosexisme."
