LGBTI Resistances
Vitória da Conquista, Brasil
Assucena Assucena
"I believe that I bring more of that in my representation as a public figure, being a trans woman, than in my music itself. Music is an art, and in art I can talk about what I want: futile things, flirting, love, or politics. However, the things I face in my daily life or the things I see happening around me drive me to fight the inequalities that reinforce prejudices against the LGBTQ+ community in Brazil. We still have much work to do to guarantee our rights, and this current government is a step backwards."
