About the Event
Tongue to Tongue: Provoking Critical Dialogues Among Queer Women of Color was a three-day long dialogue that featured workshops, lectures, speakers, visual art, films, performances, and a space for dialogues to occur between and among our various communities.
Tongue to Tongue was produced by and for queer women, genderqueer, transgender, and gender non-conforming people of color, with key sponsorships from our allies in the community. Together with independent scholars, educators, artists, academics and community activists we sought to address questions of race, poverty, sexuality, gender, violence and health as well as legal, civil and human rights. We hope that through those dialogues we will develop a platform for action to organize a movement to change the landscape for LGBTQI people in Los Angeles and beyond.
Tongue to Tongue explicitly acknowledges and honors transgender, genderqueer, and gender non-conforming experiences of womanhood that have historically been silenced in women-oriented spaces.
