Faggamuffin Bloc Party’s mission is to increase the visibility of QTIPOC Pride at Carnivals across the world. This space is about staking our claim to Carnival, affirming our identities and showing pride in our visibility as Queer People of Colour in Hackney.

It’s something that hasn’t been done before, and we have an opportunity to be out in the open and at the centre of a borough-wide celebration of Caribbean tradition. Many of our closeted friends will appreciate that openness. Many of us who cannot ‘pass’ will also appreciate the permission it gives to be themselves.
