All Anti-Capitalist Queers, Sluts Against Capitalism in Calgary!!: Dress Up, Cum out! and Let's Get Together As A Radical Pink & Black Block to Represent at the Gay Pride Parade!
...tired of the rainbow feeling like a sea of white? feel like you don't have a community because you don't have a salary? don't size up to the gay buff bod ideal? get the feeling like the gay community is an old boys club? sick of feeling unsafe in the streets? feel like the 'gay' community represents the rich, the white, the male? ...
Get Dressed Up in Pink & Black and Join Us, so we can march together!
Sunday June 11th, 2006. Calgary Gay Pride Parade
Meeting Before the Parade: 11:00 am, the Cllock Tower @ Millenium Skate Park
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so, a few of us met and worked on banners, signs, scarves, etc.... we also worked on a call-out. it seems that our intention is to have a presence at the parade, the emphasis being on representation, not confrontation. i think our presence in itself will be somewhat 'confrontational', but the intention isn't to disrupt anything, just shake 'em up a bit. it just doesn't seem like there is the time, enery, comfort levels, etc., to attempt anything very intense besides just being there and trying to be visible. mostly, this will hopefully just be a fun, safe action where we can join the parade with our own radical/ non-assimilationist voices.....i'd like to work that out in the call-out, but wasn't quite sure how.. would any one else care to contribute and help work on this call-out (please!!)? we are running out of time!
so, we have scarves, a banner and some posters- we need to get together to work on stuff some more, collect costumes and noisemakers, and it would help to try and get as much support as possible.. the more the merrier -- and safer feeling... so call and email whomever you can think of.
If you have any questions please email me with them ASAP. thanks.
