PRIDE TO CELEBRATE 50 YEARS OF THE STONEWALL REVOLT
Abstract
Uhura Bqueer is an Afro-Amazonian dragthemony from Pará, she researches the aesthetics of tecnobrega and afro-fiction sound systems. In 2019, she was awarded by the Escola de Artes Visuais do Parque Lage (RJ) with an exchange scholarship at the AnnexB artistic residency in New York. The photographic records show Uhura at the pride commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising (the historic moment that started a series of protests for the civil rights of LGBTQIA+ people in 1969). Uhura's presence and her performance symbolize a manifesto, carrying Jorge Lafond and Marsha P. Johnson as ancestors of struggle and life, a provocative presence for the geographic and political boundaries of the Bolsonaro and Trump administrations.
