Resisting Karaokee Xpress

Karaoke I #DİRENAYOL

Karaoke as a collective and playful act of resistance. The voice as resistance and a creative process against oppression. The role of songs in popular resistance is important and Karaokee Xpress provides many protest songs from all over the field. Resistance of love, politics and heteronormativity. The idea of a playful event as singing or playing tavla is to challenge the status quo through a playful get together in public spaces. The space is intended to serve and as a space for experience your voice as a resistance practice. In many different countries it is not allowed to dance or to sing in public spaces or even pop music is strictly censored in patriarchial and authoritarian governments.
