Beautiful words from Jonny of @thedollarbindarlings that made my heart break & expand all at once π Reposted from @auntyjonny - We got to perform at the first Pride Festival the Central Coast has ever held. I grew up on the Cenny Coast, and have always had a soft spot for it, but in returning for a big gay weekend remembered how difficult being an outsider was for me. I wasnβt even out then, but being called a fag, poof or homo was as much a threat as it was an insult. I learned to hide little pieces of myself in this world. Twist Festival brought light to a beautiful community of people whoβve been invisible, unviable, sitting on the outskirts. Visibility is key. I think the straight world doesnβt understand why we party like we do, the costumes, the music, the show of it. What theyβre missing is that itβs a protest. We donβt want to hide anymore, after years of carefully trying to fit in, hiding ourselves we decide to run the other way and make a point of it. I was so happy to be there over the weekend, bringing a bit of love from the city. I canβt wait to see how this festival brings more people together to form a stronger community on the coast.
