Women Who Rock Project is excited to redefine words, music, genres, space, community & love at the 2nd annual Women Who Rock: Making Scenes, Building Communities Meeting and Film Festival--“Vibrations of Love.” We invite activists, scholars, musicians, filmmakers, and artists to submit proposals for topic-focused open workshops that will promote dialogue about women, music, and social justice, taking into account issues of gender, race, ethnicity, class and sexuality. Inspired by the influence of gospel singer and guitarist Sister Rosetta Tharpe and punk pioneer Alice Bag, we encourage workshops that explore the ways Chicana and Black feminist thought have expanded “who” counts as women and “what” counts as rock.
