T.R.A.U.M.A #01

'T.R.A.U.M.A.' is a radio programme hosted by Magda De Santo and Duen Sacchi which invites us to share public cultures created from the diaspora experience and the migration of artists, researchers, curators, activists, writers, creators and workers of the queer/Kuir/Cuir community.

The voices of 'T.R.A.U.M.A.' will take us home and will similarly take us to other possible households. Perhaps even our voices together will be vaguely like that dream community which inhabits Audre Lorde's Encuentros en  la Casa de la Diferencia (Zami: A New Spelling of My Name).

Sacchi - De Santo

We are a couple of writers, visual and scenic artists, sex/gender, non-cisgender norm dissenters. We are researchers, ex-philosophers, teachers and anti-racist activists, trans feminists, migrants from Argentina, living in Barcelona.
