emchyTonight : Kathy Acker's Dangerous Daughters
Kathy Acker died 10 years ago this month. Celebrate her legacy through San Francisco's transgressive women writers: Daphne Gottlieb, MK Chavez, Aleathia Drehmer, Raina Bird, Cynthia Ruth Lewis
I cannot even say how interesting and thrilling this reading looks to me. You'll likely see me there.
@ The Creamery, 780 Valencia St.
7-9pm, All Ages.
$5, Naughty Lit and Booze.
Sunday is K'vetsch - tomorrow night - or as i like to say SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY. Please imagine the most booming announcer voice right there and then i would love it if you got all excited like it was a monster truck rally. Really though - I think monster truck rally excitement is the exact right mood to channel for the OMG 11 years of K'vetsch. So they're celebrating - we're celebrating - LET"S CONJUGATE our celebrations! It's a features only kinda anniversary party and you're more than invited. In fact - I really must insist that you get your lit loving booty over to Sadies Flying Elephant on Sunday night around 9pm and enjoy some of the talent on the stage. For example: Alvin Orloff, Mattilda, Logan Knight, Cindy Emch, Christopher Boyd, horehound stillpoint, Max Wolf Valerio, Lauren Wheeler and Shawna Virago.
Sadies Flying Elephant
Potrero @ Mariposa (right off the 33 line)
and finally to finish off your week in the best possible way - is one bad ass mofo of an open mic. Seriously.
Queer Open Mic is honored and excited to welcome Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha to our humble stage. (looky looky - see there she is in all of her fabulousness!!!)
The author of Consensual Genocide (TSAR), she has performed her work widely throughout North America, including performances at Yale University, Oberlin College, University of Southern California, Swarthmore College, Poets Against Rape, Femme 2006, The Loft, louderARTS, and the immigrant rights rallies and benefits for queer youth centers down your block. Obsessed with documenting queer/trans of color, mixed-race, Sri Lankan, high femme and survivor stories, her work has been anthologized in Homelands: Women's Journeys Across Race, Time and Place, We Don't Need Another Wave, Colonize This!, With a Rough Tongue: Femmes write porn, Without a Net, Dangerous Families, Geeks, Misfits and Outlaws, Brazen Femme, Femme, and A Girl's Guide to Taking Over the World, as well as in Colorlines and Bitch magazines
In addition to the awesome of Leah - there is the fabulous of you! So come on down to QOM. Make a new friend or five. Share your words with the world and let's build some revolution through art people.
Mollena and I will be there with metaphorical hosting bells on (and her improv rant should be back!)- so please say howdy.
