BROWNER! QUEERER! LOUDER! PROUDER! Written and performed by Monica Palacios
The Latino/a & Latin American Studies Spring Speaker Series is pleased to present Monica Palacios in this dramatic, spoken-word performance.
B!Q!L!P! skewers the Trump administration’s regime of racism, homophobia, misogyny, and hate with the verbal force of Palacios’ wit, wisdom . . . and some mighty maracas. Monica Palacios has advanced Latinx queer feminist performance art in such works as I Kissed Chavela Vargas, Queer Latina Love & Revolution, Latin Lezbo Comic, Slow Dance With a Woman, and Jota Love. She helped launch, and currently blogs on Epochalips.com, a website for lesbians and their allies. As a founding director of VIVA, a Latinx queer arts collective, she promoted and empowered many emerging LGBT artists. For more information about her career visit http://www.monicapalacios.com
