In its 6th year, Still Here centers the experiences of queer Black artists raised in San Francisco. San Francisco's Black population is now estimated at 3-5.8% Queer Black artists describe the experience of existing in a limbo between violent erasure and hyper-visibility in a city they now struggle to call “home.” They explore themes of belonging, violent displacement and marginalization. Together, they weave a collective memory of Black queer San Francisco, call upon the resilience and magic that queer Black people bring and have always brought to SF and show us how they resist just by existing here.
