THIS IS NOT YOUR FEST MISSION STATEMENT
- Defend our shows, venues, and communities from perpetrators and apologists of sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, and sexual assault
- Increase awareness and organization against domestic violence and sexual predation, with the goal of preventing predators and removing abusers’ and apologists’ ability to participate, function in, or profit from our scene
- Hold our venues, record labels, promoters, bookers, bands, engineers, patrons, and community accountable for their words, actions and associations
- Champion the needs of those who have survived abuse or are being abused through direct action and a zero-tolerance politic, thereby fostering a safer music scene free of abusers and those who enable them.
