La poésie afro lesbienne et révolutionnaire de Pat Parker
“A hint of spit”
The African American poet Pat Parker (1944-1989) is too little known in France: a major activist for the civil rights of Black Americans within numerous Black, feminist, and lesbian organizations. Her dynamic and powerful poetry, particularly well-suited to spoken word, will be recited by artists Val Bah, Rebecca Chaillon, Marina Monmirel, and Mélissa Laveaux. They will bring to life the poet's voice, translated for the first time into French by Noémie Grunenweld and Val Bah, and published by Hystériques AssociéEs. Within the walls of the Gaité Lyrique's hall, Pat Parker's testimonies on injustice and state violence, racism, sexism, and homophobia will resonate. A sisterly and sonic event open to all, followed by a DJ set by Azubuike (Mélissa Laveaux).
