Pride Fundraiser: Live online with Dubais
This post is also available in: Slovenščina (Slovenian)
Since it looks like we won’t be able to dance with you at live music events for a while, we decided to take the party online.
In 2015, we danced with Dubais at the Pride party in Monokel. This Thursday, during all the dancing, we will take time to talk about their art, activism, about an event she is preparing in support of the Black Lives Matter movement, and about the connection through protesting between communities. You are invited to join us livestream on Facebook!
At the same time, we will use our music program for the opportunity to ask you for a donation. If you support and have the opportunity to help us maintain quality content at the Parade and on the Pride Parade Festival for the LGBTIQ+ community, you can show your support through

More about Dubais:
Dubais (Nadia Buyse) is perpetually-changing concept band. Nadia says, ‘It’s my response to participating in an industry where, especially as a woman of color, you have to subscribe
yourself to a certain “sound” or “image” to create a marketable product that can be easily digested and packaged by a publicist and redistributed word for word. Nadia is a singer and multi instrumentalist who has been in over 37 bands, collaborating with many artists and musicians in various capacities… but name dropping is boring AF.
Although DUBAIS operates like a band, it’s actually a vehicle for conceptual work and cultural activism in which Nadia uses the tropes of pop music to examine Diasporic migration, Neo-liberal dystopia, emotional incapacitations, consumer technologies, hybrid identities, intersectional feminism, and transnational communities. DUBAIS has released music,
published text, taught a multitude of workshops, lectured, exhibited work, and performed internationally in a variety of spaces and places.
See you on Thursday, June 11 at 7PM at the LiveStream Zoom event!
