DarkMatter (spoken word)
DarkMatter is an art and activist collaboration between Janani Balasubramanian and Alok Vaid-Menon, known for their spoken word performances and queer/trans South Asian themes.
== Background ==
Janani and Alok met as fellow students at Stanford University in 2009. They both later joined the Stanford Slam Poetry Team and performed in spoken word venues like C.U.P.S.I. (College Unions Poetry Slam Invitational) and other college circuit slams.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://darkmatterrage.com/background-faq/ )〕
The duo cite a lack of representation of South Asian poets, especially queer and/or trans South Asian poets, as an impetus for their decision to form DarkMatter and tour independently starting in Spring 2013. Much of their poetry and activism is inspired by the lack of visibility for QTPOC (queer/trans people of color) including the name DarkMatter, of which they say on their website.
Both poets decided to finish school and move to New York, making that the center for their art and activism after their first tour in Spring 2013. As a duo, they run performances, workshops, and speeches for many different community groups.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://darkmatterrage.com/bookings/ )〕
