Saturday, October 28, 2023

6:00 - 11:00 PM | Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City | 18+ event

This past year, we have witnessed that reproductive freedom and equality are not guaranteed and there is still work to be done.  Join us as we travel back to the Pre-Roe v Wade era of the early 70's and celebrate the trailblazers who defined this movement, and make our voices heard- We Won't Go Back.

Register with GIVESMART to purchase tickets, view We Won’t Stay Silent Auction items (coming soon!) and stay up to date with event details.

Featuring
Live Music by Seratones

“Revolution is not a one time event.”  

Those words of Black feminist icon and poet warrior Audre Lorde’s resonate strongly with A.J. Haynes. Whether in her capacity as the frontwoman of the Shreveport, Louisiana-based funk-soul-rock group Seratones or as a reproductive rights advocate, Haynes knows well that no singular revolution or simple linear narrative can contain the true strength of revolution—the kind of complex, disruptive, personal revolutions that can open transformative portals to a better future. The Seratones’ third album, Love & Algorhythms (released April 22nd via New West Records), Haynes foregrounds the joyful struggle to find pleasure in a world designed to destroy you. “This is a protest album built on the form of protest I’m most interested in at this moment: getting present and sitting through difficult things with abundant joy,” Haynes says. 

Featuring
