Rhythms of Resistance: Queer Dance Party Celebrating Black & API Solidarity
Rhythms of Resistance comes to SOMArts Cultural Center as a queer dance party rooted in the radical underground history of queer art, music, and nightlife. The event honors transcestors and the long history of solidarity between Bay Area Black, AAPI, and disabled communities — bringing that legacy into the dance floor this Pride season. Organizers describe the event as accessible and designed for joy, desire, righteous rage, and release. Expect an atmosphere shaped by community, history, and the spirit of resistance.
