SOLIDARITY IS OUR STRENGTH!
On September 12, coordinated raids targeting the LGBTQIA+ community took place across several cities in Turkey. Dozens of homes, associations and clubs were raided, and hundreds of people were detained. A total of 82 people, most of them trans women and LGBTQIA+ activists, were arrested and imprisoned. Further operations in October and November led to the imprisonment of 15 more trans women.
In the face of these attacks, we refuse to stand by in silence. We are coming together to strengthen our solidarity with the queer community in Turkey and, above all, to stand alongside our friends who are being unjustly held behind bars.
The DJs and performers you know from Queer Oriental parties are coming together and taking the stage entirely on a voluntary basis, in a spirit of solidarity. We will dance to SWANA music, celebrate the art of belly dancing, and dance govend and halay together. Because coming together, celebrating our cultures, and creating spaces of joy are also ways of standing together. Let’s turn the dance floor into a space of solidarity!
All proceeds from ticket sales will go towards supporting the needs of LGBTQIA+ people imprisoned in Turkey. Every ticket makes a difference.
Can’t make it to the party? You can still stand in solidarity by purchasing a solidarity ticket and contributing to this collective effort.
Together, we are stronger. Solidarity is our power!
FREEDOM FOR OUR IMPRISONED FRIENDS!
