Register for Wild Tongues: How I Like My Care

How does community show up for community? When a crisis unfolds, what actually helps? As awareness continues to grow around the systemic violence faced by many Black, Indigenous, and People of color, these are challenging and necessary questions we ask ourselves as we divest from systems of harm.

Fortunately, we are not starting from scratch. Wild Tongues: How I Like My Care is an opportunity for LGBTQ+ survivors of partner abuse to explore the care we remember had a real impact on us.

Survivors are the experts of their own lives and hold powerful, transcendent knowledge about what truly helps and doesn’t help those being abused by partners. When we share how we like our care, we teach our communities how to help us without harming us. We are growing the practices of community care which already exist. We are shifting the systems in place. It is important that we ― along with our communities ― know how we like our care (before, during, and after crisis).

Join us for this event made by and for LGBTQ+ survivors of partner abuse to explore and name the care they need through performance and art. Viewing event on May 19, 2022, 7:00 - 9:00 PM EST.
