The revolution is almost here! Pachacuti is in just two days on Saturday May 31, from 8pm - 2am at 7th & West in Oakland! A night of Two-Spirit performance and music, this is Pachacuti (Aymara/Quechua): Pacha refers to dimension or plane. -cuti translates to overturning. Pachacuti can refer to revolution, apocalypse or other forms of cataclysmic change. Find tickets through the link in our bio! Pachacuti is a Q’iwa/ Q’iwsa/ Quariwarmi/ 2-Spirit/ QTBIPOC gathering space, a container for 2S/ QT Andean performance and a fundraiser for @vivir_sabrosa (an aquaculture-based land back project in so-called Perú). It is a visioning space for a future beyond the end of empire, borders, and colonial gender. How many times has the world ended? What care does this ending need?
