  3. Boekpresentatie Xillan Macrooy

    OBA theater, Oosterdokskade 143, Amsterdam

    Boekpresentatie Xillan Macrooy

    OBA theater, Oosterdokskade 143, Amsterdam

    Xillan Macrooy presenteert zijn debuutroman Mensen als zonnen en mensen als manen. Een avond vol muziek, interessante gesprekken en mooie interviews.

    Uitgever Edward van de Vendel gaat met Xillan in gesprek over het ontstaan van het boek, uiteraard leest Xillan een stukje voor en Raoul de Jong vertelt over het belang van boeken als Mensen als zonnen en mensen als manen.

    Lanny groeit samen met zijn tweelingbroer op in Paramaribo. De jongens zijn getalenteerd: ze tekenen en raken zelfs bekend als zangduo. Maar Lanny trekt zich, als hij ouder wordt, steeds meer terug in de maankant van het leven. Hij vindt zichzelf geen zon. En als het steeds duidelijker wordt waar de gevoelens die hij voor zijn beste vriend heeft werkelijk op duiden, breekt een periode aan waarin alles zijn betekenis lijkt te verliezen: de muziek, het vrije zijn dat hij als kind nog volop kon beleven, en zelfs de band met zijn tweelingbroer. Een beeldende, poëtische roman die op heel zintuiglijke manier het opgroeien als Zwarte queer jongen in Suriname duidelijk maakt en laat zien hoe noties van mannelijkheid een individueel leven kunnen beïnvloeden.

    Xillan Macrooy (1993) groeide samen met zijn tweelingbroer op in Suriname. Hij verhuisde als jonge twintiger naar Nederland om aan het Conservatorium van Amsterdam te studeren. Dit boek is onderdeel van een drievoudig project: naast zijn debuutroman Mensen als zonnen en mensen als manen maakt hij ook de voorstelling A Coming of (R)age Ritual en komt zijn muziekalbum Son uit.

  6. De Straat op - For solidarity

    De Dam, Amsterdam

    De Straat op - For solidarity

    De Dam, Amsterdam

    CALL TO THE LGBTQIA+ COMMUNITY – TAKE ACTION!

    Our rights are under pressure. In the run-up to the elections, we need to send a strong message: know what you are voting for!

    On September 20, we will once again take to the streets!
    2 p.m., Dam Square in Amsterdam

    Join the protest against fear and exclusion — and for love, equality, and human rights for all.

    If you follow the news, you know that our hard-won rights are rapidly eroding abroad. But things are also going wrong in the Netherlands.

    Some examples: the Minister of Education who has linked rainbow paths to swastikas, several parties (including the largest) claiming that there are only two genders, the pressure from the US to discontinue the diversity policies of Dutch companies, the distressing situations for queer refugees who face misunderstanding from the IND and violence in AZCs the lack of Dutch legislation banning medical interventions on intersex children (despite calls from organisations such as the UN and the European Parliament), various right-wing and conservative parties demanding a ban on care for transgender youth, political silence on new legislation allowing non-binary gender registration (despite court rulings to the contrary) and so on.

    Meanwhile, BIPOC and bicultural LGBTQIA+ persons are feeling the pressure, even here - through institutional racism, exclusion and political indifference.

    The oxygen is running out and we want to send a clear message on the streets.

    âœŠđŸŸWij are not powerless.
    âœŠđŸ» We are visible
    ✊🏿 We are connected
    âœŠđŸŒ And we are DETERMINED

    Make your voice heard and not just in the voting booth.
    Stand side by side - black, white, brown, trans, non-binary, queer, straight, cis, young and old. We all say NO to exclusion. YES to an inclusive future.

    Make September 20 a historic day.
    Share this message, bring your friends and make your voices heard peacefully but loud and clear.

    Galakoor presents: 'Fool Me Twice'

    Vrijburg, Diepenbrockstraat 16, Amsterdam

    Fool Me Twice
 But what if that second time is actually the chance to rewrite the story? In 750 years, a lot has changed in Amsterdam. Where queer love was once kept secret, today the same songs are sung again—now freely! We will sing songs by Benjamin Britten, Jake Runestad, Clara Mak, Schweelinck, Amy Beach and Samuel Barber, among others. Joost Kleppe wrote a short prelude especially for this concert.

    Half of the program will be performed a cappella – vulnerable, pure, self-reliant. The other half will be supported by the warm accompaniment of pianist Gerrie Meijers.

    Afro travesti cinema evening

    Lola Lieven, Rodenrijsstraat 43, Amsterdam

    Eleggua Luna Laverde (@_mojana) is a multidisciplinary afrocaribbean artist from Bazurto, Cartagena, on Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Now based in Cali, she is the founder of Mojana Estudios (@mojana_presenta), an audiovisual studio centering black and afroindigenous trans and queer voices.

    Her practice explores the ways black trans (travesti) and queer (marica) communities navigate ancestry, weaving together past, present, and future to both nourish her community and honor the travestis and maricas who paved the way.

    She has curated Macumbas, a project that intertwines ballroom culture with yoruba spirituality and locally rooted black antipatriarcal anticolonial trans and queer practices in Cali. As a filmmaker, through music, documentary and the short film Danzan Las Luciérnagas, she has ventured into the realms of Afrofuturism (although she has a lot to say about that term).

    This evening, Eleggua Luna Laverde will share her work and engage in conversation with the audience.

    Poly stories - Jealousy talks

    Treehouse NDSM, T.T. Neveritaweg 55-57, Amsterdam

    When did you experience jealousy for the last time? Jealousy. We’ve all felt it, whether as children with no access to the right crayon, watching our lover sliding across the room after batted eyelashes, or deep into our polyamourous seniority, when we were least expecting it.

    In the ENM community, where freedom, compersion and sharing are front and center, we might hide from our jealousy because it makes us question our legitimacy as a poly person. Doesn’t that erase the conversation?

    Let’s stop jealousy shaming and dive within. Jealousy shakes you to the core and wakes you up to the things you’ll want to work through, or desire to ask from another. It can be beautiful, or hurtful, depending on what you do with it. Like every feeling, it is valid.

    What is the line between claiming responsibility for our feelings, and finding a way all partners can feel free and safe at the same time?

    Poly Stories invites you in the exploration of the wondrous world of non-monogamy through personal storytelling—together navigating the edges and unpacking (moral) dilemmas.

    BOOKCLUB: THE ARGONAUTS, MAGGIE NELSON
    Wednesday 1st of October at 20:00, we gather to discuss the landmark book The Argonauts by Maggie Nelson. Ten years after its publication, it has become a modern classic on queer love, autotheory, and motherhood beyond the nuclear family. Blending love story, theory, and queer life, Nelson explores intimacy, transformation, and the possibilities of kinship in fearless and deeply personal ways.
    Join us for an evening of conversation, reflection, and thoughts about this work that continues to spark dialogue, challenge norms, and inspire queer thought.

    Poly stories - Poly parenting

    Treehouse NDSM, T.T. Neveritaweg 55-57, Amsterdam

    Other than the nuclear family, known from television and the instructional guides our surroundings hand us, poly parenting may look a bit different. Breaking the rules is exciting, but what do you see when picturing an ENM family? A kitchen table with four middle-aged lovers, sharing pasta and value systems with a child on lap? A woman zipping up her dress and handing cash to the babysitter before heading out for date number three this week? How about the pregnant couple, who, overcome by nesting hormones, is not sure what to do with the unicorn? Or, yourself, with no child wish, developing a crush on that cute parent?

    Poly parenting might be a question of the more the merrier - and then some additional questions. Eyebrows might raise and demand explanations, lovers may or may not (want to) be involved, children may or may not know. What to do when perspectives, wants and needs change throughout the years?

    Since there is no clear guideline on parenting in an ethically non-monogamous structure, endless possibilities lie ahead for exploration. How do others handle this situation? What have they learnt? What has surprised them? Let’s come together and design our own family tree.
