CITY GIRLS: QUEER FEMME CULTURE in the EAST COAST

This project is an audio “documentary”, and archiving of the queer culture of Black and Brown femmes in the east coast. Major cities serve as a mecca for queer life and culture. When Black queer culture is leaned into by the macro culture we often get a taste of Black cis gay men and their cultures (Looking for Langston etc.) instead of a complex look at spectrums of Black gender and sexuality that do not conform to white binaries of understanding. An exhibit that overlaps music from real life city girls with interludes from Black feminist thinkers (accredited and not accredited by the institution). This digital exhibit provides a very basic scope of radical femmeness of Black and Brown women in New York City.

MY FIRST EVER EP PLANET 26! Dropping this gem on my birthday as a gift to myself and the people that have supported my music all these years. This project is a labor of love, it took me out of my earthly comfort zone and into my own world. The title reflects the boundlessness of music and sound, existing outside of earthly judgement and critique, creating worlds where there are none. Some of these songs have been years in the making and above all I hope they make you feel something, I hope they allow you too see something in yourself that gives you the permission I gave myself to LIFT OFF. With love, Zawadi x
