A performance by trans hip-hop artist/activist Metahuman!

Metahuman is a hip-hop lyricist, filmmaker, speaker and performance poet, a political dissident, radical transsexual activist, autobiographical confessionalist, outspoken social misfit, friend, lover, and teacher. Metahuman mixes politics with the visceral love of flow to create a unique sound that blends old-school rap metaphors with radical queer politics. Metahuman also writes and produces films, including the short comedy “Queerer Than Thou” which has screened at over 30 film festivals worldwide. He also runs the LA-based arts collective Trans/Giving.

In addition to the performance at Monkey Wrench, Metahuman will also present a workshop on transgender youth at the Abriendo Brecha VII conference at UT on Saturday, February 20th, 11:30-12:45, Asian Culture Room, Free and open to the public.
