Alicia BT is a young Franco-American singer, musician, author, and composer. Her music is inspired by many cultures. She started improvising songs as a child and was accepted at age 11 in the Jazz program of Marciac’s Junior High School in France. From there, she was admitted to the artistic program at CEPMO High School after which she got a State scholarship to study theatre, mime, and dance at L’oeil du Silence in the south of France, run by Anne Sicco. There, she studied among talented artists and teachers. She studied composing and singing at La Manufacture de la Chanson in Paris. She then graduated and started traveling. She has been performing in many venues and in the streets wherever she goes.

Her street performance experience; her encounters with people; her spiritual path; and her concern for humanity are the main sources of her inspiration. One of her encounters was with Michael Rodriguez which led to the recording her Album L’innatendu d’une grande personne. https://soundcloud.com/aliciabt

Peaches For Freedom: The point of this meet-up will be to discuss and brainstorm practical ideas for how to resist the current situation. There are many issues at stake: Public Parks, the EPA, Health Care, Women’s reproductive rights, the NEA, LGBTQ rights, Overturning Voter Restrictions, Privatized prisons, the Dakota Pipe Line, The Wall as well as resisting administration appointees and measures. I will bring paper and pens. You can also bring any information you think is worth sharing about any of these issues or one I have not mentioned. Particularly encouraged are specific suggestions about action ie: email this particular senator about this particular issue, organizing a tour bus to go visit and talk to the rust belt, guerilla art ideas etc.

Everyone is invited. All ideas and suggestions will be accepted. We do not need to agree on anything other than that we are against the current president and what he represents.
