*BLACK DOLLS by William Ndatira & Campbell Addy*

“My Queer Blackness, My Black Queerness” is an ongoing digital project in exploration of the multiple existing facets of black queer identity. It is a protest , a celebration that frames blackness as a polyphony, a genre or melody with a vast variety of notes & textures, denouncing both white queer racism and black queer antagonism by way art , film and literature through a print sale fundraiser, weekly journal & films screenings. This project is in dedication and celebration of the lives of trans brothers and sisters of colour — the ones who have survived violence and continue to exist unapologetically and the ones we have lost throughout the past few months & years — www.mqbmbq.com.
