BindleHall Meeting on

Sexual Harrassment

Feb 6

 

Bindlestiff Studio and the SOMA Pilipinas Coalition invite you to a special BindleHall meeting that will address sexual harassment in the community. We've all read the headlines exposing sexual abuse, harassment, and misconduct perpetrated by male public figures, but the problem exists in all facets of society.

 

How do we as a community address this problem amid the #metoo/Time's Up movement? How can we prevent it from happening in our community-based organizations? How do we cultivate an environment where people feel safe enough to speak out when it occurs? How do we employ principles of restorative justice to allow for amends?

 

Please join us for this crucial town hall discussion.

 

BindleHall Meeting

Feb 6th, 6:30pm-8:30pm

Bindlestiff Studio

185 6th St.

 

Note: The first 45 minutes of the meeting will be Bindlestiff's regular update to the community regarding the current state of the theater and a preview of our 2018 calendar. The sexual harassment discussion will begin at 7:15 pm.

 

For more info, please contact info@bindlestiffstudio.org or info@somapilipinas.org.

WHAT: Across the globe, the hxstory of colonization has resulted in the exploitation of indigenous cultures, the erasure of hxstory, and the denial of second class narratives. The effects of colonization continue to permeate our society, our politics, and our art --- but art is also our weapon in this war.

For centuries, our ancestors used music, song, and art to preserve the stories of our culture. Music, especially, has been a way for people of color to speak truth to power, to let our narratives take center stage.

On February 16, we're telling OUR truths, and re-indigenizing the musicscape! DJ Glo will be spinnin' slaps into the night, so come dance with us! Step up on stage for our open mic, share your music and your message. After KaTrina Liwanag closes our open mic with a magical set, we're keeping the party going with a powerful performance by our headliner - Boondock Squad.
