This is where the recall campaign, \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2024/02/02/recall-campaign-district-attorney-pamela-price-alameda-county-who-is-funding/\">funded primarily by wealthy real estate investors\u003c/a>, has the upper hand. As of the last campaign filing at the end of January, recall supporters had more than $400,000 in the bank.

This would land an election in July or August.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under county rules, an election must be held within 35 to 40 days from the announcement but does not specify business days or calendar days. Depending on how the supervisors interpret the charter, county rules could land an election as early as May or as late as July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recall opponents have said they would prefer a recall election to occur in November, citing experts who say general elections tend to draw a larger turnout and produce more progressive results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State rules allow recall elections to be scheduled up to 180 days in the future if it can be consolidated with a regularly scheduled election. This is designed to save money. The registrar estimates a special election could cost around $20 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Short of suing the county and delaying the election scheduling with a protracted court battle, a Price recall election that coincides with November’s presidential election is unlikely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joshua Spivak, a recall expert and senior research fellow at the California Constitution Center at Berkeley Law, said the conventional wisdom about higher turnout in general elections may not apply to recalls. He pointed to the recalls of three state governors — Gavin Newsom and Gray Davis in California, Scott Walker in Wisconsin — all saw greater turnout in the special elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If it’s like a ‘who cares’ election and you know who’s going to win, the turnout is going to be low,” Spivak told KQED. “If a lot of people are paying attention, then turnout may be high.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, the outcome of a Price recall may have more to do with whether enough people pay attention to the issue rather than when an election is held.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Money to host campaign events and run ads is necessary to gain people’s attention. This is where the recall campaign, \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2024/02/02/recall-campaign-district-attorney-pamela-price-alameda-county-who-is-funding/\">funded primarily by wealthy real estate investors\u003c/a>, has the upper hand. As of the last campaign filing at the end of January, recall supporters had more than $400,000 in the bank. Price’s Protect the Win campaign is so low on cash that it let the contract with its campaign manager expire. The campaign had under $50,000 in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recalls that make it to the ballot tend to be successful, Spivak said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The challenge is getting to the ballot. If they get to the ballot, about 61% of recalls nationwide result in removal, and another 6% result in resignation,” he added. “So you’re talking two-thirds of the time.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11983091/recall-of-alameda-county-district-attorney-pamela-price-qualifies-for-a-vote","authors":["11772"],"categories":["news_8","news_13"],"tags":["news_260","news_17725","news_27626","news_18","news_24461","news_17968"],"featImg":"news_11983096","label":"news"},"news_11982718":{"type":"posts","id":"news_11982718","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"11982718","score":null,"sort":[1712916032000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"poetry-as-liberation-a-conversation-with-darius-simspon","title":"Poetry in Service of Politics: A Conversation with Darius Simpson","publishDate":1712916032,"format":"audio","headTitle":"Poetry in Service of Politics: A Conversation with Darius Simpson | KQED","labelTerm":{},"content":"\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003ca href=\"#episode-transcript\">\u003ci>View the full episode transcript.\u003c/i>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Darius Simpson is the author of the collection “Never Catch Me.” In this episode in celebration of National Poetry Month, Simpson talks about how his poetry has changed over the years, his involvement in People’s Programs in Oakland, and how he hopes his poetry can inspire people to organize towards liberation of all oppressed people. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp id=\"embed-code\" class=\"inconsolata\">\n\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https://playlist.megaphone.fm/?e=KQINC3267463029&light=true\" width=\"100%\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\n\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"episode-transcript\">Episode Transcript\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003ci>This is a computer-generated transcript.

Today we’re celebrating National Poetry Month, which has kind of become an annual tradition on the show. And that’s something I’m really excited about because poetry is so special to me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>And I’ve been thinking a lot about the role of poetry and what it means to be a poet when you care about the world and the people in it. I recently saw a video of the poet Lucille Clifton, where she says poetry is a way of being in the world. And when I first met Darius Simpson, that couldn’t be clearer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>The poem is as committed a person, as potent a person as revolutionary or radical as you are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>For Darius, poetry is a way to talk about liberation. To name the systems that are oppressing us and to offer a solution. As an organizer with People’s Programs in Oakland. Darius puts his politics into practice. In other words, his poetry is an extension of himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>Really, the most important thing for you is your daily political practice. And you have to ask yourself, what is it that I’m doing? And then how can a poem be in service of that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>For today’s episode, Darius talks about his poetry collection Never Catch Me and what he hopes his poetry can do. All that after the break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>My name is Darius Simpson. I am a poet, writer, performer and skilled living room dancer from Akron, Ohio. Growing up in Akron, there was a a really close knit relationship between the black folks that I really appreciate now, especially looking back and having lived in different places. The way that our neighbors related to each other, there was a big community effort of like mowing folks lawns, shoveling driveways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>When I was a teenager. It was a lot of outside things and sort of sports, riding bikes, playing outside, you know, pick up football games, tag, hide and seek. I first came across poetry in fourth grade during a poetry unit with Mrs. Croft. My mother, she got called in for a teacher’s meeting, and Mrs. Croft was like, yeah, this thing that he did, it was like a poetry packet where we had to do haikus and limericks and all that stuff. And she pointed to them was like, he got an A-plus plus on this. He’s really good at this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>You should have him keep doing this. And so from there, my mom just kept reiterating that I was a poet, even when I didn’t really know what that meant. And so she would tell me, you’re a poet, you know, you can write. Write a poem for grandma, write a poem for, you know, Mother’s Day. From there, I remember writing like a motion poem. So like having really big feelings and not knowing how to describe them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>So I would like, put them into poetry. Or I like you poems for folks in like fifth and sixth grade. It meant a lot to have my mom tell me or like affirm or celebrate something that I was doing because like I said at the time, I didn’t really know what it was. And so I knew that this person who I loved really appreciated this thing that I did. And so while I couldn’t really see the full value of poetry at the time, I could see it as a like a service to the people that I love and that it was received that way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We don’t die. We second line trumpet groove through gridlocked streets. We home? Go in charcoal black Cadillacs stretching around corners. We wake up sharp in Sunday. Best stiff but beaming. We move the sky. We escape route Starshine we crescent moon conspiracy. We come alive in the closed palms of midnight. We electrify. We pass do bill. But full belly we fridge empty. We pocket lint payments. We make ends into extensions. We multiply. We claim cousins as protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We so-and-so plus and them. We extend family to belong to someone. We siblings because we got to be. We chicken fry. We grease kitchen. We hog neck greens. We recipe scrape together from scraps. We prophesy. We told you so. Even if we never told you nothing. We are omniscient except in our own business. We swallow nations anthems and spit them out sweet. Make them sound like red velvet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>Ain’t just chocolate with a little dye in it. We bend lies, we amplify. We laugh so hard it hurts. We hurt so quiet. We dance. We stay flat. We float on tracks. We glide across linoleum. We make it look like butter. We melt like candle wax. In the warmth of Saturday night liquor. Sweat. We don’t die. We dust. That colony’s couldn’t settle. We salt water city built from runaway skeletons. We organized we Oakland in 66. We add a cut in 71.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We? Ferguson before and after the camera crews. We bow, but don’t break. We break but don’t crumble. We won’t die, we won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t. I start the poem. We don’t die with we in the book with a we. Because right now, to me, poetry is attempting to be in service to a collective we we being colonized people, especially Africans in the US. Assata Shakur and a number of folks that participated in the new African independence movement, or have made contributions to the new African independence movement, have come to lowercase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>The I have focus on. We, and in an attempt to move away from individualism, to move away from the ways that capitalism has kind of isolated us and have us really considering the we. I ended up in the Bay by way of being in a documentary when I was in high school. The filmmaker lives in the Bay, and as a part of the filming process, she brought out some of the protagonist from the film. And we did filming in Berkeley, in downtown Oakland. But she made it a point to like, take us through the Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>Out here, there was just a gravitational pull to people that I can’t really put words to. There was an energy and I was in college at this time, so I’m like, oh yeah, I want to live here after. I would say that mostly all the connections that I’ve found out here have been in Oakland. To be honest, most of everywhere else that I’ve gone has been like, this is nice. But, you know, our people have always been found in Oakland, you know, walking down the street attending open mic slams, events. There’s iconography all over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>I think that scene in Panther symbols. Seeing streets named after former Panthers. Even the things in people’s windows have a political tinge to them that don’t don’t really happen in other cities. Like, when I started off, I was working in middle schools and the, like sixth to eighth graders understanding of gentrification as like, wow, like, you know, what is it? What’s going on here? You know, it’s I think that there is at various points, there’s a political focus and undertone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>My poetry shifted when I came to the Bay. I think initially because I was trying to see what I could do with poetry as a tool. So in 2017, I was separated from the political home that I had in Michigan. And all the things that I was saying that I was against and all the things I was saying I was for were playing out in the world still. But I didn’t have any sort of community. So I had the question, okay, well, what can I do? How can I contribute? And so my poetry really took a more explicitly political aim during that time because I had nothing else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And I was like, okay, well, I have these poems, I have these words. How can it be used? I was typing in Black Boy killed by police, and that naturally brought up a host of other stories unintentionally. One of them being Victor Steen in the poems that I write and in my life. My mother is very special to me, and she’s a central figure in the way that the Victor Steen’s story played out following his murder. Pigs waited two days, almost two days, to tell his mother about it. I feel related to the way the story played out. Riding your bike at night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We play it outside all day. You know, we didn’t always have street lights. Depending on where you were, whose house you were over. And so that meant to sometimes you were out till dark and like riding home. And that’s really all he was doing in the the ludicrous accusations of what he was actually doing. You know, where they said this? The 17 year old black boy riding a bike was stealing 2,000 pound construction equipment from a from a lot. And that’s that’s the reason they had to stop him. Definitely saw some of myself in him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And that’s a question that I had to sit with two of like, you know, why am I going to include these these poems? What is the the purpose and intention? Impact a run on question. I want to tell you about the first time I watched pigs trample him. But I’ve already written that funeral. And yes, my cheeks were flooded stairwells when black and white dashcam footage crushed me because I could have swore his bike was cherry red and so was mine, before the paint chipped off before the right foot pedal split off in the speeding mouth of a Toyota Camry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And I want to tell you about the fourth time I watched pigs flatten him. But I got hit by a car when I was nine. So talking about accidents makes my foot itch, and maybe there’s no accidental way to run through a person like an inconvenient red light or a shortcut. And maybe I’m making up excuses because I’d never been to Pensacola, Florida, and the video was still too close to home, and I was six houses down from mine when a green sedan bent the fragile spine of my bike backwards into dead curbside grass, and I was five minute walk from my apartment when I saw the video, or when I watched pigs deflate him for the eighth time and the day I got hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>My mother told my siblings to wait for me. But I’m the youngest, so they left anyway. And my loyalty is hard headed. So I need explicit rejection, often chasing behind people that don’t want me around. So I dusted off after them and he was riding his bike alone that night too. And in the video it looked like he had lost someone. And the first thing I thought was how much trouble awaited me for the dents in my twisted handlebars. And the second thought was if I would be allowed to ride my bike alone again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And a black neighbor sprinted outside and wound her arms around my head like I was hers. And I just know that no one hugged him or said he was going to be okay. And what’s a black boy alone on a bike in the near night anyway, And what good would it do? Telling you about how there was no blood, but still enough questions to fill a casket. And where was I going with that bike? Or his name, or this grief, or an almost elegy in what is an obituary from a stranger, anyway?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>I would say 2020, where my politics really started to develop. There was this building on a question of what does it mean to write poems for a particular purpose? People’s programs was having a community learning for the for the public to come through, and there’s going to be some kind of discussion or presentation. I was like that, you know, I’m trying to be wherever folks like this are at. And so I pulled up. They had somewhere to sign up to volunteer. So there was a book list that dropped immediately after it had established a course autobiography, Revolutionary Suicide, by Huey Newton and a couple other books by it, by Black Revolutionaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And I went to the bookstore immediately after. I think when I’ve been in those spaces before, the charge is always really vague. Where I’ve seen people that inspired me are like who I admired, but they didn’t have a tangible next step for my own development, and that was something that stood out well, people’s programs initially, you know, the rest is pretty much history. Been been rocking with them ever since. I would say my poetry through volunteering with people’s programs has shifted. Toward naming phenomena more explicitly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We’re writing about state violence. We write as the victims. You know, where the victims, either in the case of detailing the brutality or victims in the sense of moving towards a utopia where none of this happens. What’s missing from both of those points of view are ways of approaching a situation. Is the reality that there’s another option, one that names the enemies, one that names an explicit alternative and goal, and one that again empowers a people to to move to action in their right now, or troubles the way that our actions are actually limiting what we have available to us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>But my my point is that it doesn’t. It doesn’t matter what you say on a page, how well you say it, how beautiful it sounds. If you are contributing to colonialism, capitalism, and not disrupting those things on a daily basis, then what you say is actually a betrayal. It’s a posturing. The poem is as committed a person and as potent a person, as revolutionary or radical as you are. And being something as like a calling card for the audience. Really, the most important thing for you is your daily political practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And you have to ask yourself, what is it that I’m doing? And then how can a poem be in service of that? You know, because a poem is just a tool, and it is as useful and as useless as the person wielding the tool. What were we doing here? I wanted to be a good poet once. Tossed a handful of haikus at a cop and he laughed. My MFA adviser says that ain’t what poems are for. But these days, I don’t want to make art that can’t also be a weapon against oppressors that can’t double as an invitation to organize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>This is not me making excuses for bad poems. This is a critique of how we become experts, a question of how that expertise can be used by the people who will die tomorrow with little food in the stomach or fridge or family. These days, all my dreams involve comrades. Last night I had a wild one about liberation. There was people outside everywhere. Then when it got cold, we all went inside. Every single one of us had an inside. The end. I had a wacky idea about education yesterday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>That we should all know the best things for free. I had a nightmare about my kin last week. They were writing in prisons and boardrooms and coffins and courtrooms and all equally lifeless. Revolution is the process of organized reanimation. To admit that somebody killed you centuries ago and everything since has been apocalyptic reiteration. Call me American if you want to hear God choke. Call me New African if you want to petrify colonialism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>I’m not looking for, you know, millions of views on YouTube or, book awards. My intention is to reach a certain group of people, namely, and firstly, who I’m writing from, which is new Africans, which is colonized people, which is people that are looking to, do something about our condition. So I hope my poetry speaks to, inspires those folks to do something about our condition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>That was poet Darius Simpson.

Today we’re celebrating National Poetry Month, which has kind of become an annual tradition on the show. And that’s something I’m really excited about because poetry is so special to me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>And I’ve been thinking a lot about the role of poetry and what it means to be a poet when you care about the world and the people in it. I recently saw a video of the poet Lucille Clifton, where she says poetry is a way of being in the world. And when I first met Darius Simpson, that couldn’t be clearer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>The poem is as committed a person, as potent a person as revolutionary or radical as you are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>For Darius, poetry is a way to talk about liberation. To name the systems that are oppressing us and to offer a solution. As an organizer with People’s Programs in Oakland. Darius puts his politics into practice. In other words, his poetry is an extension of himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>Really, the most important thing for you is your daily political practice. And you have to ask yourself, what is it that I’m doing? And then how can a poem be in service of that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>For today’s episode, Darius talks about his poetry collection Never Catch Me and what he hopes his poetry can do. All that after the break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>My name is Darius Simpson. I am a poet, writer, performer and skilled living room dancer from Akron, Ohio. Growing up in Akron, there was a a really close knit relationship between the black folks that I really appreciate now, especially looking back and having lived in different places. The way that our neighbors related to each other, there was a big community effort of like mowing folks lawns, shoveling driveways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>When I was a teenager. It was a lot of outside things and sort of sports, riding bikes, playing outside, you know, pick up football games, tag, hide and seek. I first came across poetry in fourth grade during a poetry unit with Mrs. Croft. My mother, she got called in for a teacher’s meeting, and Mrs. Croft was like, yeah, this thing that he did, it was like a poetry packet where we had to do haikus and limericks and all that stuff. And she pointed to them was like, he got an A-plus plus on this. He’s really good at this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>You should have him keep doing this. And so from there, my mom just kept reiterating that I was a poet, even when I didn’t really know what that meant. And so she would tell me, you’re a poet, you know, you can write. Write a poem for grandma, write a poem for, you know, Mother’s Day. From there, I remember writing like a motion poem. So like having really big feelings and not knowing how to describe them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>So I would like, put them into poetry. Or I like you poems for folks in like fifth and sixth grade. It meant a lot to have my mom tell me or like affirm or celebrate something that I was doing because like I said at the time, I didn’t really know what it was. And so I knew that this person who I loved really appreciated this thing that I did. And so while I couldn’t really see the full value of poetry at the time, I could see it as a like a service to the people that I love and that it was received that way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We don’t die. We second line trumpet groove through gridlocked streets. We home? Go in charcoal black Cadillacs stretching around corners. We wake up sharp in Sunday. Best stiff but beaming. We move the sky. We escape route Starshine we crescent moon conspiracy. We come alive in the closed palms of midnight. We electrify. We pass do bill. But full belly we fridge empty. We pocket lint payments. We make ends into extensions. We multiply. We claim cousins as protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We so-and-so plus and them. We extend family to belong to someone. We siblings because we got to be. We chicken fry. We grease kitchen. We hog neck greens. We recipe scrape together from scraps. We prophesy. We told you so. Even if we never told you nothing. We are omniscient except in our own business. We swallow nations anthems and spit them out sweet. Make them sound like red velvet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>Ain’t just chocolate with a little dye in it. We bend lies, we amplify. We laugh so hard it hurts. We hurt so quiet. We dance. We stay flat. We float on tracks. We glide across linoleum. We make it look like butter. We melt like candle wax. In the warmth of Saturday night liquor. Sweat. We don’t die. We dust. That colony’s couldn’t settle. We salt water city built from runaway skeletons. We organized we Oakland in 66. We add a cut in 71.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We? Ferguson before and after the camera crews. We bow, but don’t break. We break but don’t crumble. We won’t die, we won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t die. We won’t. I start the poem. We don’t die with we in the book with a we. Because right now, to me, poetry is attempting to be in service to a collective we we being colonized people, especially Africans in the US. Assata Shakur and a number of folks that participated in the new African independence movement, or have made contributions to the new African independence movement, have come to lowercase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>The I have focus on. We, and in an attempt to move away from individualism, to move away from the ways that capitalism has kind of isolated us and have us really considering the we. I ended up in the Bay by way of being in a documentary when I was in high school. The filmmaker lives in the Bay, and as a part of the filming process, she brought out some of the protagonist from the film. And we did filming in Berkeley, in downtown Oakland. But she made it a point to like, take us through the Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>Out here, there was just a gravitational pull to people that I can’t really put words to. There was an energy and I was in college at this time, so I’m like, oh yeah, I want to live here after. I would say that mostly all the connections that I’ve found out here have been in Oakland. To be honest, most of everywhere else that I’ve gone has been like, this is nice. But, you know, our people have always been found in Oakland, you know, walking down the street attending open mic slams, events. There’s iconography all over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>I think that scene in Panther symbols. Seeing streets named after former Panthers. Even the things in people’s windows have a political tinge to them that don’t don’t really happen in other cities. Like, when I started off, I was working in middle schools and the, like sixth to eighth graders understanding of gentrification as like, wow, like, you know, what is it? What’s going on here? You know, it’s I think that there is at various points, there’s a political focus and undertone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>My poetry shifted when I came to the Bay. I think initially because I was trying to see what I could do with poetry as a tool. So in 2017, I was separated from the political home that I had in Michigan. And all the things that I was saying that I was against and all the things I was saying I was for were playing out in the world still. But I didn’t have any sort of community. So I had the question, okay, well, what can I do? How can I contribute? And so my poetry really took a more explicitly political aim during that time because I had nothing else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And I was like, okay, well, I have these poems, I have these words. How can it be used? I was typing in Black Boy killed by police, and that naturally brought up a host of other stories unintentionally. One of them being Victor Steen in the poems that I write and in my life. My mother is very special to me, and she’s a central figure in the way that the Victor Steen’s story played out following his murder. Pigs waited two days, almost two days, to tell his mother about it. I feel related to the way the story played out. Riding your bike at night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We play it outside all day. You know, we didn’t always have street lights. Depending on where you were, whose house you were over. And so that meant to sometimes you were out till dark and like riding home. And that’s really all he was doing in the the ludicrous accusations of what he was actually doing. You know, where they said this? The 17 year old black boy riding a bike was stealing 2,000 pound construction equipment from a from a lot. And that’s that’s the reason they had to stop him. Definitely saw some of myself in him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And that’s a question that I had to sit with two of like, you know, why am I going to include these these poems? What is the the purpose and intention? Impact a run on question. I want to tell you about the first time I watched pigs trample him. But I’ve already written that funeral. And yes, my cheeks were flooded stairwells when black and white dashcam footage crushed me because I could have swore his bike was cherry red and so was mine, before the paint chipped off before the right foot pedal split off in the speeding mouth of a Toyota Camry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And I want to tell you about the fourth time I watched pigs flatten him. But I got hit by a car when I was nine. So talking about accidents makes my foot itch, and maybe there’s no accidental way to run through a person like an inconvenient red light or a shortcut. And maybe I’m making up excuses because I’d never been to Pensacola, Florida, and the video was still too close to home, and I was six houses down from mine when a green sedan bent the fragile spine of my bike backwards into dead curbside grass, and I was five minute walk from my apartment when I saw the video, or when I watched pigs deflate him for the eighth time and the day I got hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>My mother told my siblings to wait for me. But I’m the youngest, so they left anyway. And my loyalty is hard headed. So I need explicit rejection, often chasing behind people that don’t want me around. So I dusted off after them and he was riding his bike alone that night too. And in the video it looked like he had lost someone. And the first thing I thought was how much trouble awaited me for the dents in my twisted handlebars. And the second thought was if I would be allowed to ride my bike alone again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And a black neighbor sprinted outside and wound her arms around my head like I was hers. And I just know that no one hugged him or said he was going to be okay. And what’s a black boy alone on a bike in the near night anyway, And what good would it do? Telling you about how there was no blood, but still enough questions to fill a casket. And where was I going with that bike? Or his name, or this grief, or an almost elegy in what is an obituary from a stranger, anyway?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>I would say 2020, where my politics really started to develop. There was this building on a question of what does it mean to write poems for a particular purpose? People’s programs was having a community learning for the for the public to come through, and there’s going to be some kind of discussion or presentation. I was like that, you know, I’m trying to be wherever folks like this are at. And so I pulled up. They had somewhere to sign up to volunteer. So there was a book list that dropped immediately after it had established a course autobiography, Revolutionary Suicide, by Huey Newton and a couple other books by it, by Black Revolutionaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And I went to the bookstore immediately after. I think when I’ve been in those spaces before, the charge is always really vague. Where I’ve seen people that inspired me are like who I admired, but they didn’t have a tangible next step for my own development, and that was something that stood out well, people’s programs initially, you know, the rest is pretty much history. Been been rocking with them ever since. I would say my poetry through volunteering with people’s programs has shifted. Toward naming phenomena more explicitly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>We’re writing about state violence. We write as the victims. You know, where the victims, either in the case of detailing the brutality or victims in the sense of moving towards a utopia where none of this happens. What’s missing from both of those points of view are ways of approaching a situation. Is the reality that there’s another option, one that names the enemies, one that names an explicit alternative and goal, and one that again empowers a people to to move to action in their right now, or troubles the way that our actions are actually limiting what we have available to us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>But my my point is that it doesn’t. It doesn’t matter what you say on a page, how well you say it, how beautiful it sounds. If you are contributing to colonialism, capitalism, and not disrupting those things on a daily basis, then what you say is actually a betrayal. It’s a posturing. The poem is as committed a person and as potent a person, as revolutionary or radical as you are. And being something as like a calling card for the audience. Really, the most important thing for you is your daily political practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>And you have to ask yourself, what is it that I’m doing? And then how can a poem be in service of that? You know, because a poem is just a tool, and it is as useful and as useless as the person wielding the tool. What were we doing here? I wanted to be a good poet once. Tossed a handful of haikus at a cop and he laughed. My MFA adviser says that ain’t what poems are for. But these days, I don’t want to make art that can’t also be a weapon against oppressors that can’t double as an invitation to organize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>This is not me making excuses for bad poems. This is a critique of how we become experts, a question of how that expertise can be used by the people who will die tomorrow with little food in the stomach or fridge or family. These days, all my dreams involve comrades. Last night I had a wild one about liberation. There was people outside everywhere. Then when it got cold, we all went inside. Every single one of us had an inside. The end. I had a wacky idea about education yesterday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>That we should all know the best things for free. I had a nightmare about my kin last week. They were writing in prisons and boardrooms and coffins and courtrooms and all equally lifeless. Revolution is the process of organized reanimation. To admit that somebody killed you centuries ago and everything since has been apocalyptic reiteration. Call me American if you want to hear God choke. Call me New African if you want to petrify colonialism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Simpson: \u003c/strong>I’m not looking for, you know, millions of views on YouTube or, book awards. My intention is to reach a certain group of people, namely, and firstly, who I’m writing from, which is new Africans, which is colonized people, which is people that are looking to, do something about our condition. So I hope my poetry speaks to, inspires those folks to do something about our condition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Esquinca: \u003c/strong>That was poet Darius Simpson.

Local news to keep you rooted. There’s a queer nightlife renaissance happening in Oakland right now, and it’s bringing new life to a downtown that’s probably more well known these days for store closures and fears about crime and safety. But just take a look at the growth of brick and mortar queer spaces, and you’ll find another story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>If you go out in Oakland and meet people and are open, you really meet some of the most determined, heartfelt, and community oriented people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Today, I talk with KQED arts and Culture editor Nastia Voynovskaya about Oakland’s queer nightlife renaissance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Oakland always had really fun queer parties that were popular, but there were really only a couple of brick and mortar options that you could visit any night of the week before the pandemic. And coming out of the pandemic, we have kind of seen this explosion of a lot of new venues. We’ve had, you know, cocktail lounges, clubs, bars open. So now Oakland’s brick and mortar queer venues are up to eight. That’s up from two, you know, in 2020. So it’s been this really amazing explosion of energy that a lot of people are calling a renaissance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Most of these venues are located walking distance from 19th Street Bar and 12th Street Bar, so you can really do a loop. And you can start, you know, at Town Bar, for example. I hit the dance floor, maybe see a little drag or one of the other events that they have going on and, and, and then go to feel more and have a classy cocktail. Then you can make your way down to Katie Girl, which is a Latin club. Right across the street from there there’s Nectar Social Club and they have this huge, diverse array of events, art shows, open mic nights and dance parties to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>It seems like you’re describing like a scene that is not really just one thing. It’s like really a diverse sort of range of like vibes and music and spaces. It sounds like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Yeah, absolutely. Historically, Oakland’s queer scene has always been a lot more diverse than San Francisco’s. I think when people think of the queer scene in San Francisco, they often think of the Castro, which, for decades has been very male oriented and also skews very white. And Oakland has always been driven by queer people of color and often black women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>But this new explosion of energy, there’s that. And I think it’s gotten even more diverse in terms of just different events on any night of the week, catering to different gender identities, but also ones that are not just segregated, but really embracing the way that people fluidly identify now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>It seems like it’s not just the venues are these brick and mortar is themselves, right. There’s like also a plethora of programing and events that are happening in the queer nightlife scene organized by queer party promoters. Can you tell us a little bit more about the growth of that over the last year?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>A lot of these promoters were here before the explosion of new venues, but now they have more places to throw events. And with that comes a diversity of more types of events. All these promoters are sort of roaming around town and activating different venues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jeremy Redford: \u003c/strong>More so than ever. We need community and that’s what people are looking for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Jeremy Radford, the owner of Nectar Social Club, put it really well. We’re he said people aren’t necessarily just going out to downtown Oakland necessarily just see what’s going on. Which is why it might seem more quiet or more sleepy these days, but they are really loyally following these culture makers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jeremy Redford: \u003c/strong>So many people are following and tracking the community leaders in the community, builders who they feel aligned with, and they’re putting on their calendars the events that they want to go to that really resonate with them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>And I know you talked with some of the owners of these spaces. What did they tell you about why the scene seems to be growing?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Yeah. Jeremy pointed out that during the pandemic, when everything was shut down, many people had the time to think about what they really wanted to do and come up with new avenues for themselves. So just coming out of that, people are really, really hungry to express and connect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jeremy Redford: \u003c/strong>I wanted to create a space that wasn’t just a nightclub, that was it just a cafe that wasn’t just a small event space. That was a blank canvas and a true third space in its fullest sense that were open daytime to nighttime. And you can come here and do everything from launch a new creative project to chat up the bartenders and make friends, or come dance until 2 a.m. and, you know, bring out all your friends and have the time in your life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>With a lot of storefronts still sitting empty. People also ended up activating sort of unconventional spaces like we’re an actor social club is. It may not be. If you just looked at it, you may not see it as the typical place that would hold a bar in a venue. It’s this very kind of like narrow, skinny bar, and it’s very, very intimate. And with that, you know, they’re able to have these more experimental events because it’s a pretty small space and it can just feel very full when 50 people are there dancing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, I want to talk now some more about the need that these spaces are filling. And I know you spoke with someone named Montana Hooks, who’s the creator behind Queer in Oakland. Can you tell me a little bit about her and her role in the scene?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>So Montana Hooks is the creator of this platform called Queer in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>As Queer in Oakland. I started throwing events probably in like 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>It’s, an online publication where she interviews and writes about queer culture makers, mostly folks of color. And then she also throws events under the Queer and Open banner at different venues. So those can be dance parties, artists markets. Speed dating has been a fun one because she says, you know, people are kind of sick of their phones and sick of apps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>Queer folks to date, especially if you identify as a queer femme where, you know, you maybe when you’re walking down the street, it’s maybe easy to blend in. And the apps were great for that. It helped solve for that problem. But at the same time, there are a lot of, difficulties that come with using these apps. And, and I think we’re experiencing phone fatigue and app fatigue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>She says with all these new brick and mortar spaces, some of which are queer owned but don’t necessarily build themselves as exclusively queer, but that there’s more visibility than there has been in a while.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>And as we’re becoming stronger as a community, I feel like that we can take up space now in ways that less marginalized communities don’t even have to give a second thought.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>You really see that at her events where, like, people are dancing and it has this very intimate energy and she’s been building a lot of really exciting momentum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>They often want to cry, and I’m not even joking because it’s just so beautiful. And I love seeing everyone’s smiling faces. I love watching people meet. I love just being in the background and just seeing everyone do their thing. It’s it’s all so beautiful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Can you tell us about your connection to Oakland and why you wanted to cover this topic?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>I’ve been living in Oakland for all of my adult life, and as a queer person here, you know, I’ve been going out on the scene for that that time also, and it’s just been really exciting to watch all of these new venues pop up. It feels really awesome to have places that feel more inclusive also to folks of different gender identity. And instead of kind of waiting for your favorite queer party to come around once a month or whenever it may be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>It’s just awesome having places to go any night of the week, and also different kinds of activities that don’t just revolve around alcohol. So it just feels like the community is stronger than it has been in years, and maybe in my entire, you know, decade plus here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>How are you also thinking about this story in the context of the mainstream narrative around Oakland right now?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Yeah, I mean, Oakland definitely has its challenges, and we should acknowledge that. But I do get frustrated when people just exclusively focus on this doom little narrative, because if you go out in Oakland and meet people and are open, you really meet some of the most determined and heartfelt and community oriented people that you will meet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>There’s always this really inspiring energy in Oakland, where people are trying to uplift and support each other through their creative passions. And that’s the thing I love most about it. Queer and trans people of color have always been leading the way and that in Oakland. So with this story, I just really wanted to pay homage to that and and uplift the people that are actually making positive things happen, rather than this constant negative narrative about our town.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, Nastia, thank you so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Thanks, Ericka.

But just take a look at the growth of brick and mortar queer spaces, and you’ll find another story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>If you go out in Oakland and meet people and are open, you really meet some of the most determined, heartfelt, and community oriented people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Today, I talk with KQED arts and Culture editor Nastia Voynovskaya about Oakland’s queer nightlife renaissance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Oakland always had really fun queer parties that were popular, but there were really only a couple of brick and mortar options that you could visit any night of the week before the pandemic. And coming out of the pandemic, we have kind of seen this explosion of a lot of new venues. We’ve had, you know, cocktail lounges, clubs, bars open. So now Oakland’s brick and mortar queer venues are up to eight. That’s up from two, you know, in 2020. So it’s been this really amazing explosion of energy that a lot of people are calling a renaissance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Most of these venues are located walking distance from 19th Street Bar and 12th Street Bar, so you can really do a loop. And you can start, you know, at Town Bar, for example. I hit the dance floor, maybe see a little drag or one of the other events that they have going on and, and, and then go to feel more and have a classy cocktail. Then you can make your way down to Katie Girl, which is a Latin club. Right across the street from there there’s Nectar Social Club and they have this huge, diverse array of events, art shows, open mic nights and dance parties to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>It seems like you’re describing like a scene that is not really just one thing. It’s like really a diverse sort of range of like vibes and music and spaces. It sounds like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Yeah, absolutely. Historically, Oakland’s queer scene has always been a lot more diverse than San Francisco’s. I think when people think of the queer scene in San Francisco, they often think of the Castro, which, for decades has been very male oriented and also skews very white. And Oakland has always been driven by queer people of color and often black women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>But this new explosion of energy, there’s that. And I think it’s gotten even more diverse in terms of just different events on any night of the week, catering to different gender identities, but also ones that are not just segregated, but really embracing the way that people fluidly identify now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>It seems like it’s not just the venues are these brick and mortar is themselves, right. There’s like also a plethora of programing and events that are happening in the queer nightlife scene organized by queer party promoters. Can you tell us a little bit more about the growth of that over the last year?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>A lot of these promoters were here before the explosion of new venues, but now they have more places to throw events. And with that comes a diversity of more types of events. All these promoters are sort of roaming around town and activating different venues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jeremy Redford: \u003c/strong>More so than ever. We need community and that’s what people are looking for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Jeremy Radford, the owner of Nectar Social Club, put it really well. We’re he said people aren’t necessarily just going out to downtown Oakland necessarily just see what’s going on. Which is why it might seem more quiet or more sleepy these days, but they are really loyally following these culture makers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jeremy Redford: \u003c/strong>So many people are following and tracking the community leaders in the community, builders who they feel aligned with, and they’re putting on their calendars the events that they want to go to that really resonate with them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>And I know you talked with some of the owners of these spaces. What did they tell you about why the scene seems to be growing?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Yeah. Jeremy pointed out that during the pandemic, when everything was shut down, many people had the time to think about what they really wanted to do and come up with new avenues for themselves. So just coming out of that, people are really, really hungry to express and connect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jeremy Redford: \u003c/strong>I wanted to create a space that wasn’t just a nightclub, that was it just a cafe that wasn’t just a small event space. That was a blank canvas and a true third space in its fullest sense that were open daytime to nighttime. And you can come here and do everything from launch a new creative project to chat up the bartenders and make friends, or come dance until 2 a.m. and, you know, bring out all your friends and have the time in your life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>With a lot of storefronts still sitting empty. People also ended up activating sort of unconventional spaces like we’re an actor social club is. It may not be. If you just looked at it, you may not see it as the typical place that would hold a bar in a venue. It’s this very kind of like narrow, skinny bar, and it’s very, very intimate. And with that, you know, they’re able to have these more experimental events because it’s a pretty small space and it can just feel very full when 50 people are there dancing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, I want to talk now some more about the need that these spaces are filling. And I know you spoke with someone named Montana Hooks, who’s the creator behind Queer in Oakland. Can you tell me a little bit about her and her role in the scene?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>So Montana Hooks is the creator of this platform called Queer in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>As Queer in Oakland. I started throwing events probably in like 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>It’s, an online publication where she interviews and writes about queer culture makers, mostly folks of color. And then she also throws events under the Queer and Open banner at different venues. So those can be dance parties, artists markets. Speed dating has been a fun one because she says, you know, people are kind of sick of their phones and sick of apps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>Queer folks to date, especially if you identify as a queer femme where, you know, you maybe when you’re walking down the street, it’s maybe easy to blend in. And the apps were great for that. It helped solve for that problem. But at the same time, there are a lot of, difficulties that come with using these apps. And, and I think we’re experiencing phone fatigue and app fatigue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>She says with all these new brick and mortar spaces, some of which are queer owned but don’t necessarily build themselves as exclusively queer, but that there’s more visibility than there has been in a while.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>And as we’re becoming stronger as a community, I feel like that we can take up space now in ways that less marginalized communities don’t even have to give a second thought.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>You really see that at her events where, like, people are dancing and it has this very intimate energy and she’s been building a lot of really exciting momentum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Montana Hooks: \u003c/strong>They often want to cry, and I’m not even joking because it’s just so beautiful. And I love seeing everyone’s smiling faces. I love watching people meet. I love just being in the background and just seeing everyone do their thing. It’s it’s all so beautiful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Can you tell us about your connection to Oakland and why you wanted to cover this topic?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>I’ve been living in Oakland for all of my adult life, and as a queer person here, you know, I’ve been going out on the scene for that that time also, and it’s just been really exciting to watch all of these new venues pop up. It feels really awesome to have places that feel more inclusive also to folks of different gender identity. And instead of kind of waiting for your favorite queer party to come around once a month or whenever it may be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>It’s just awesome having places to go any night of the week, and also different kinds of activities that don’t just revolve around alcohol. So it just feels like the community is stronger than it has been in years, and maybe in my entire, you know, decade plus here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>How are you also thinking about this story in the context of the mainstream narrative around Oakland right now?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Yeah, I mean, Oakland definitely has its challenges, and we should acknowledge that. But I do get frustrated when people just exclusively focus on this doom little narrative, because if you go out in Oakland and meet people and are open, you really meet some of the most determined and heartfelt and community oriented people that you will meet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>There’s always this really inspiring energy in Oakland, where people are trying to uplift and support each other through their creative passions. And that’s the thing I love most about it. Queer and trans people of color have always been leading the way and that in Oakland. So with this story, I just really wanted to pay homage to that and and uplift the people that are actually making positive things happen, rather than this constant negative narrative about our town.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, Nastia, thank you so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nastia Voynovskaya: \u003c/strong>Thanks, Ericka. It was great being here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>That was Nastia Voynovskaya, arts and culture editor for KQED.
