RECLAIM! March 3/8

Sunday, March 8, Bandaloop, West Oakland

RECLAIM is a daytime dance party for people who are BIPOC, Queer, or both!

Bad Rosé curates dance experiences with the goal of creating energetic, inclusive spaces where dancers lead the vibe and the music follows. Her sets invite release, unified movement, and deep presence on the dancefloor. Expect bass-heavy rhythms, playful grooves, and genre-crossing moments.
As a proud Filipina and member of the LGBTQ+ community- Bad Rosé brings her lived experience and heart-centered activism into everything she does. Beyond the decks she is engaged in social justice work with unhoused and at-risk youth-grounding her artistry in compassion, equity, and community empowerment. Her love for plants, animals, and the earth shapes the way she approaches both activism and the dance floor -as living ecosystems rooted in connection, resilience, and collective well-being.

RECLAIM is about creating a vibrant space where bipoc and queer folks can come together, connect, and vibe as one community. Our goal? To build bridges and unite, so we can dance our way into the future we’ve been dreaming of.

We’re calling all BIPOC folks—whether you’re Black, Indigenous, or a Person of Color—to join us on the dance floor. And we’re calling all QUEER folks—gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, questioning, gender-nonconforming, or however you proudly define your queerness.

To be clear: if you’re white and queer, come on down! If you’re brown and straight, we want you too! The only thing we ask is that you bring your best self and be ready to groove.

RECLAIM envisions a world where bipoc and queer people are moving towards liberation together. We center the Black, the Brown, and Queer because now, more than ever, we need fresh visions to create a thriving world for all—regardless of who we love, how we identify, or the melanin in our skin.

Our mission is to unite BIPOC and Queer dancers through communal movement, self-expression, and meaningful exchange. By dancing together, we empower ourselves to build deeper connections, find courage, and co-create a more just and compassionate world.

RECLAIM stands in solidarity with Black, Brown, Queer, Indigenous, Palestinian, Congolese, Sudanese and all people resisting oppressive systems.
