That was very cute. Thanks @hkw_berlin for having me repping @faggamuffinblocparty with @lyallhakaraia & @blackobsidian_soundsystem with @mellowdramatics_
Was so nice to see some familiar faces @_sippin_t & @dr_ronx@djbiggyc 🥰🥰🥰 & meeting new beautiful humans such as @badgyal.felisha@876alchemist@govoi@jaevionn@serakalo to name a few - being in community with you made the weekend so nurturing, especially when exploring such sensitive topics.
Thank you to Phil Collins and Sinisia and the team at HKW Jessica and Anja for facilitating this space.
I hope we can continue to build on the conversations we started over the weekend. It’s so important to me that speaking and practicing communicating in community is a part of my practice as a cultural curator, as an event producer and as a creative.
About Desire Lines; (more in my linktree) What does it mean to be queer in the Caribbean, Pan-Caribbean and other island imaginaries? Artists, scholars and activists from Jamaica, Trinidad, Latin America’s Caribbean coast and the UK connect with Berlin’s diasporic queer communities and allies to address issues around queer love from a decolonial and intersectional perspective. Presentations, conversations and performances intertwine with a social space for gathering, cooking, partying and emancipatory imagination.
