Event map

A 3-day celebration of the unruly, ungovernable ways queer, trans, feminist, anti-racist and prison abolitionist communities escape attempts to constrain them, tear down the walls of normative culture and build joy in flight.

About

Life in flight from every prison

Intro

Is there a link between how we’re divided into populations that can be caged and exiled by the prison-industrial complex, and the ways people’s bodies are violently categorised and segregated by race, class, gender or ability? Episode 8 celebrates all the unruly ways we refuse to be defined by such violence, escape attempts to constrain us, tear down the walls of normative culture and build joy in flight.

Featuring

3 days of performances, discussions, screenings and a club with gender non-conforming rebels, students of blackness, lawyers, archivists, anarca-feminist street artists and witches, party hosts, filmmakers, prison abolitionists, poets, DJ’s, ex-prisoners and multi-media artists.
