Find Another City Better Than This One
- Date: Friday 22nd November, 6pm
Paperxclips Bookshop
n his pamphlet essay for our Tails of the City series, Jordanian trans writer and Outburst 2024 Artist in Residence Raphaël Amahl Khouri reflects on his time living in San Fransciso, Amman, Beirut and Berlin and asks if not the Emerald City, where is our queer uptopia now?
Are cities still the beacon of freedom for queer people that they once were?
Can we still be in cities when affordable housing is limited?
And in the face of war, displacement and existential threat how do we collectively build sanctuaries for our queer futures?
Join Raphaël and Rainbow Refugees (Belfast) for a reading and discussion running parallel to they shoot horses.
Ticket includes a copy of the pamphlet. Proceeds to Rainbow Refugees.
