Stay Brown, Stay Down Fest (FKA Bay Area Latinx Punk Fest 2015) is a three-day music, culture and arts festival happening in the Bay Area in August 2015. The festival is a celebration recognizing the contributions of Latinxs/Chicanxs/Indigenxs in punk. While we encompass multiple intersecting identities, we recognize that they are the end products of colonization and we use punk not only as an artistic manifestation but as a tool of resistance against systemic oppression.
We recognize the need for intersecting identities within liberated spaces. We are using this opportunity to create bonds, break down walls of oppression that we have internalized and to make punk truly dangerous and unsafe for white capitalist cisheteropatriarchy.
The festival has been produced in Chicago, Los Angeles, San Antonio, and New York. This year, the Bay Area will take over.
We are currently seeking bands, workshop presenters, artists and volunteers to help us actualize this fest by building networks through art, dialogue and most importantly, punk!
Español:
Stay Brown, Stay Down es un festival de música, cultura y las artes sucediendo en el Área de la Bahía en agosto de 2015. El festival es una celebración que reconoce las contribuciones de Latinxs / Chicanxs / Indigenxs en punk. Mientras abarcamos múltiples identidades que se cruzan, reconocemos que son los productos finales de la colonización y que utilizamos el punk no sólo como una manifestación artística, sino como una herramienta de la resistencia contra la opresión sistémica.
Reconocemos la necesidad de las intersecciones de identidades dentro de los espacios liberados. Estamos utilizando esta oportunidad para crear lazos, derribar los fronteras de la opresión que hemos interiorizado y crear un espacio punk verdaderamente peligroso e inseguro para el establecimiento homofobico, transfobico, capitalista y exclusivamente blanco.
El festival se ha producido en Chicago, Los Angeles, San Antonio, y Nueva York. Este año, el Área de la Bahía se hará cargo.
Actualmente estamos buscando bandas, presentadores de talleres, artistas y voluntarios para ayudarnos a actualizar este festival mediante la construcción de redes a través del arte, el diálogo y lo más importante, el punk!
