More than a dozen Bay Area artists are banding together the day after Thanksgiving for an event that will combine music, poetry and social justice.
Taking Back Thanksgiving Show at Slim’s on Friday, Nov. 25, will be hosted by Equipto, the San Francisco rapper and activist who staged a hunger strike earlier this year to call attention to police actions, mass incarceration and gentrification in the Bay Area.
Equipto will be joined by several local musicians, rappers, poets and speakers at the all-ages event, which is being touted as a “networking, social and informational event for Bay Area grass roots volunteer social justice organizations and activists.”
