Vaginal Davis au Palais De Tokyo

Le Palais de Tokyo l'a fait, Marie-Hélène Bourcier l'a invitée - invitation prévue avant le passage de Richard Dyer au Palais de Tokyo : Vaginal Davis, artiste, écrivaine, éditrice, performeuse, drag queen Black a tenu une conférence au Palais de Tokyo ce mercredi 09 Avril 2008.

VAGINAL DAVIS. Vaginal Davis. Who is she : a Drag Queen. Is it all about her ? No, certainly no. I won't go pretentious about me telling who she is. Because i can't and because it's ridiculous to suppose it's possible. So don't ask the question. It's not possible to define Vaginal Davis. And it's all fine that way. But i could say something, i would like to say that she is Angela Davis into Vaginal Davis as she says it in her performative talk. And Vaginal Davis at Palais de Tokyo this wednesterday, 09 was a lady ! A real gorgeous lady ! Yes, she reminded us what a lady is ! what it is to be a lady a real Black gorgeous lady in her highest proud and identity managing with stereotypes. Oh yes dear, she is aware about prejudices : just watching how she wields her lecture, where racists and anti-racists may have missed some understanding if they took it literally.
White anti-racists or supposed so, White racists alike too, go there and see the one Woman show she offers when she is here. But Black Niggers, "Real" Black Men, go there too and attend the lectures she gives when she is around. Both of you, Go See it and mainly do better : Understand it ! Willingly and daredevils Whites as Black fellows, go challenge your man pride, your beliefs and your womanhood too. Girls, and women go and challenge yourself too. From those Black "dogs" with rap artist styles to those Black "mammies" with "big" booties, it's all about booty calls to unmask about gender, gendering, masculinities and feminities. Talking about homosexuality and heterosexuality, we also come learning how "Tom Cruse loves women" and loves Men too( ?) - You would like to know, don't you ?- Melting and crossing the borders to interrogate our mindsets and sexuality, that's the achievement of the lecture.
VAGINAL DAVIS MADE IT : " F-ck like The f-cking Blacks : Performative talk" like announced about the lecture at Palais de Tokyo of this wednesterday 2008 by Marie-Hélène Bourcier on Fuck My Brain. She taught with her sweet voice how to break prejudices lightening the outlines of implicite sexualized talks, all surrounded with the vibes of performance, i mean performative presence and performative talk. Thank you for that Vaginal Davis. You did it like no Woman else, you did it like no Man else, 'cause You simply did it like nobody else. Congratulations !
