DESCRIPTION:In these times of never ending wars, fence post lynchings, and the 
 continuing HIV/AIDS genocide; violence and its relationship to queerness 
 seems to ask for urgent attention.  From resisting war through an anarchist 
 critiqueof the State to new reading of the Holocaust and AIDS genocide, the 
 Queer/ Violence program provokes, instigates and explores queer 
 (un)doing.\n\nThe screening is comprised of the Maggots and\nMen (2006 
 Oakie Tredwell) trailer, By Any Means Necessary (1994 James 
 Wentzy),Mentalitet (2001 Stefan Orlandic Stojanovski) and Homotopia(2006 
 Chris Vargas, Eric\nStanley). Following the screening time will be allotted 
 for questions and conversation around both the films as well as larger 
 question of, HIV/AIDS gay marriage, transliberation\nand/or anything 
 else.\n\nAbout Homotopia:\n\nSet sometime in the future-present Homotopia 
 chronicles a group of radical queer’s dedicated to exposing the trouble 
 with gay marriage, dismantling the State, undoing Empire, while looking 
 totally fierce. Woven into the story of Yoshi's adventures in 
 love,\nresistance, and sex, is a critique of the crushing violence of 
 homonormativity and its deadly perpetuation of US patriotism, conservative 
 kinship structures and affective accumulation. Homotopia holds cinematic 
 assumptions hostage through its motley assemblage of never-passing crew. 
 Race, gender, ability and desire are reworked through an anti-colonial take 
 of queer struggle creating a visual rhythm of melancholic utopianism that 
 knows there may be no future but still hopes today is not their last. 
 Love\nrevolution, not State delusion, Homotopia.\n\n
