🔥HAVE YOU REGISTERED FOR THIS?!?!? Don't miss out! "Ginga Flow- Fundamentals, a hybrid workshop that incorporates the moves of Capoeira, a Brazilian martial arts & yoga. Capoeira, developed by enslaved Africans in Brazil, was originally created as a type of ritual dance that was believed to provide a person to a link to the afterlife and channel their ancestors into their dance. However, it eventually evolved as a method of survival as they disguise their forms of fighting into this dance as a tool for escaped slaves to go against armed and mounted colonial agents as they fought to regain their freedom. Music is integral to capoeira as it set the tone & style of the game as well as relays the memories of resistance to historical oppression. ⁠
⁠
During this workshop, we will learn to ginga, the fundamental movement of capoeira in which you flow from high lunge to goddess squat to high lunge to form a rhythmic fighting stance to prepare the body for a variety of movements such as kicks, escapes, feints, attacks & defense. So join June Li Lo (@juneliloyoga) in this one-hour workshop as we start slow with a meditative warm-up, combining yoga & martial movements, to a sequence of choreographed movements set to a playlist of Brazilian & capoeira music to honor those who fought against historical oppression. ⁠Link in bio to signup!⁠🔥⁠

Marsha P. Johnson was an iconic advocate for gay a

Marsha P. Johnson was an iconic advocate for gay and transgender rights, prolific drag queen, Stonewall veteran and AIDS activist in New York City. Born Malcolm Michaels Jr. in New Jersey in 1945, Johnson spent early life suppressing sexuality because of adolescent bullying and conservative family normatives. After graduating high school at 17, Johnson moved to Greenwich Village in 1966 with “$15 and a bag of clothes.” Johnson found a supportive community and soon flourished in the New York City gay, art and drag scenes. Marsha P. Johnson began performing in drag, stating that the “P” stood for “pay it no mind” when people inquired about gender. Before gender non-conforming became an accepted term, Johnson identified as gay, a transvestite and a drag queen. ⁠
🌈⁠
On June 28th, 1969, clashes with police and gay neighborhoods came to a fever pitch resulting in the Stonewall Uprising. Although many accounts of Johnson’s actual involvement remain disputed, one corroborated story described that on the second night of the riots, Johnson climbed a lamppost and dropped a bag with a brick on top of a police car, shattering the windshield. Afterwards, Johnson joined the Gay Liberation Front and was one of the first to march in the first Gay Pride rally on the anniversary of the uprising. ⁠
🌈⁠
Marsha P Johnson's death was labeled a suicide in 1992, though friends and family dispute that claim. In 2002, the cause of death was change to “undetermined.” The case remains open and unsolved as a glaring reminder of the radical disregard of the violence black and transgender people still face today. “How many years has it taken people to realize that we are all brothers and sisters and human beings in the human race?”⁠
