Published by AFP Coachella returned in 2022 after a three-year hiatus Palm Springs (United States) (AFP) – Hundreds of thousands of revelers were descending on California’s Coachella Valley for the premier desert arts festival that kicks off Friday, which for the first time won’t feature a white headliner. Reggaeton titan Bad Bunny, K-pop superstars Blackpink and the influential but reclusive R&B artist Frank Ocean will top the 2023 edition of Coachella, the mammoth event that takes place over two three-day weekends and traditionally kicks off the year’s summer concert circuit. It’s set to be a history-making weekend, with Bad Bunny — the globe’s most-streamed artist — as the first Spanish-language and first Latin American act to headline. And K-pop group Blackpink of South Korea is the first Asian act to receive a top billing at the festival. Both acts debuted at Coachella in 2019 to great fanfare, teeing up an eventual headlining slot. Ocean — thought to be the first out queer man to headline the festival — was originally booked as a top-billed act for the 2020 edition, which organizers postponed and eventually scrapped due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The acclaimed R&B artist, who hasn’t released an album since 2016’s “Blonde,” is anticipated to debut new work at this year’s festival. The headliners — in particular Puerto Rico’s Bad Bunny, who is by most measures the world’s biggest contemporary artist — are some of the buzziest in years, since Beyonce shut down the stage in 2018 with her revered “Homecoming” show. But despite their undeniable star power there was some surprise among industry-watchers and fans that Bad Bunny or Blackpink nabbed the top slots. That take is misguided according to Vanessa Diaz, a professor at Loyola Marymount University who teaches the course “Bad Bunny and Resistance in Puerto Rico.” “They’re surprised because they don’t view this as mainstream American culture,” she said. “People were in disbelief because this seems so not a representation of mainstream American popular music in the way that Coachella has represented that before.” ‘Public demand’ The weekend is set to host perhaps the most international lineup Coachella has ever booked, including Spanish phenomenon Rosalia, Iceland’s Bjork and Nigeria’s Burna Boy. Belgium’s Angele is slated to make her Coachella debut, as France’s Christine and the Queens, who has been performing under the name Redcar, will also return after wowing audiences in 2019. And the elusive electronic producer Jai Paul will play his first public performance ever. Domi and JD Beck, the rising jazz duo comprised of a French keyboardist and American drummer, will also take the stage, months after they made a splash in Los Angeles as Grammy nominees. Diljit Dosanjh will become the first Punjabi singer to perform at Coachella, as Pakistani singer, songwriter and composer Ali Sethi will also play a set. For CedarBough Saeji, a professor of Korean and East Asian studies who specializes in K-pop, the festival lineup emphasizing the hottest acts from across the globe is long overdue. “The American music industry, the American decision-makers, are not necessarily the biggest risk-takers,” she told AFP. “They want to follow clear indication of public demand, as opposed to sticking their necks out.” English virtual band Gorillaz will also perform, as will New Wave pioneers Blondie and the American indie rock supergroup boygenius, which includes Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker. Beyond the supernova that is Bad Bunny, the weekend will once again see a strong showing from Latinos, including but not limited to Los Angeles native Becky G, rapper Eladio Carrion, Argentina’s Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, and the Grammy-winning Kali Uchis. Coachella will take place over two three-day weekends, from April 14-16 and 21-23. And OG rock fans will get a special treat: Blink-182 announced just this week it will play a set Friday, the first time the pop punk group will perform with its original lineup in nearly a decade.

Published by BANG Showbiz English Lady Gaga has been appointed as a co-chair of President Joe Biden’s Arts and Humanities Committee. The ‘Bad Romance’ hitmaker, 37, has joined movie producer Bruce Cohen, 61, in being named by the 80-year-old US Commander-in-Chief as two of the newest leaders of the prestigious body that has been tasked with “positively impacting the arts” across the nation. The White House’s Twitter account posted on Thursday (13.04.23): “Welcome newly appointed members of the President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities, led by @BruceCohen83 and @ladygaga!. We look forward to partnering to positively impact the arts, libraries, museums, and humanities work across the country.” A-listers including Jon Batiste, George Clooney, Shonda Rhimes, Kerry Washington Troy Kotsur and Jennifer Garner have also become members. The committee dates back to 1982 and was founded to offer advice to the President on cultural matters and, until now, has typically been led by the First Lady, the position held by the head of state’s wife. The announcement continued: “Private committee members include prominent artists, scholars, and philanthropists who have demonstrated a serious commitment to the arts and humanities. Public members represent the heads of key federal agencies with a role in culture, including the Chairs of the National Endowments for the Arts and the Humanities, the Librarian of Congress, the Secretary of the Smithsonian, and the Director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services, among others. “PCAH advises the President and the heads of U.S. cultural agencies on policy, philanthropic and private sector engagement, and other efforts to enhance federal support for the arts, humanities, and museum and library services. The PCAH will also engage the nation’s artists, humanities scholars, and cultural heritage practitioners to promote excellence in the arts, humanities, and museum and library services and demonstrate their relevance to the country’s health, economy, equity, and civic life. Over the past 40 years, PCAH has catalyzed federal programs and played a vital role in the advancement of arts and humanities education, cultural diplomacy, and the creative economy.” Gaga and Bruce retweeted the government’s news, adding their gratitude for the nod. She wrote: “Thank you @POTUS @PCAHgov.” He added: “Can’t wait to serve with all of you on @PCAHgov #PCAHgov.” View the full article

Published by AlterNet U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) on Friday tried once again to not actually answer reporters’ questions about his position on abortion. He narrowly escaped having to admit his actual beliefs, while trying to present a sufficiently far-right anti-choice message that might resonate with GOP voters, just two days after he announced a presidential exploratory committee and one day after being widely mocked for his word salad remarks on the subject. It is a remarkable move for a Senator whose position for the past decade has been that life begins at conception, and embryos should have the full personh… Read More View the full article

Published by Radar Online mega Donald Trump Jr. spoke out against the ongoing conservative boycott of Bud Light over their pro-LGBTQ+ ad campaign, RadarOnline.com has learned. The beer company has been facing an onslaught of protests from right-wing mouthpieces and celebrities such as Fox News’s Tucker Carlson and country rapper Kid Rock since the brand’s partnership with Dylan Mulvaney was announced. mega Trump Jr posted a video on his Rumble account touting the brewery’s “conservative credentials,” saying it was wrong to “blame the whole company for the inaction or the stupidity of someone in a marketing campaign that got woke as hell.” He claimed to have researched Anheuser-Busch, Bud Light’s parent company, and found they mainly donated to Republicans, before pointing out that his fellow conservatives sometimes had “the tendency of — shooting first and aiming second.” mega Squabbling Siblings: Ivanka Trump’s Brothers Feel She ‘Betrayed The Family’ In The Months Leading Up To Daddy Donald’s Arrest Donald Trump Jr. Posts Photo Of Judge’s 34-Year-Old Daughter After Ex-Prez Claims Family Has Ties To Kamala Harris Donald Trump Jr. Says ‘Vegetable’ John Fetterman’s ‘Unfit For Office’ After Being Hospitalized For Depression The 45-year-old claimed that a low-level marketing employee made the decision to partner with Mulvaney rather than the senior executives. “Last cycle, their employees and their PAC gave about 60 percent to Republicans and 40 percent to Democrats,” Trump Jr. told his 1.1 million followers. “That’s literally almost unheard of in corporate America, where it’s really easy to go woke, where they do so constantly, where there’s a consequence to actually being a conservative. So 60 / 40 to the conservative side is kind of a big deal.’ mega The former president’s son said he also respected the St. Louis-based beer company’s corporate approach. “On the lobbying front, we looked into the bills that Anheuser-Busch was working on,” he continued. “You know what they’re focused on, guys? They’ve focused on taxes and trade things that actually impact their business.” The far-right has spoken out against the trans community in recent years, with elected officials such as Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene referring to the growing number of people identifying as transgender as “apocalyptic.” Donald Trump recently spoke at the National Rifle Association, where he said, if re-elected, he would direct the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to study the effects of gender-affirming healthcare and “trans ideology” on mental health.

Published by Raw Story Bud Light’s partnership with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney caused many conservative voices to boycott the beer company, but there is reportedly now a GOP-led push to back off, or risk losing major funding. The National Republican Congressional Committee initially used the beer beef to raise funds in its latest “anti-woke” campaign, but on Saturday quietly deleted a tweet critical of the beer, whose owner happens to be one of their biggest donors, Anheuser-Busch, according to the Daily Beast’s report.

Published by Al-Araby Teaching pro-LGBTQ+ lessons in Morocco-based French schools has led to several lawsuits against the institutions prompting a layered debate on the colonial legacy of French mission schools and widespread homophobia in the North African state. The controversy began last December when a teacher at the French mission school of Balzac “encouraged students to accept the notions of homosexuality,” according to local reports. As some parents learned about the teacher’s lessons they reported the incident to the school’s administration which “remained silent and indifferent.” Three months later, the pa… Read More View the full article

Published by AlterNet Florida’s Republican Governor Ron DeSantis managed to anger both Democrats and Republicans on Thursday, people in his state and out of his state, as he continued his unofficial run for president while ignoring real problems at home – and creating new ones just before the stroke of midnight.

His absence forced the Democratic mayor when asked by a reporter at a press conference on the more than two feet of water that fell from the skies in just two days, to diplomatica… Read More View the full article

Published by Reuters By Gram Slattery MANCHESTER, N.H. (Reuters) – On issues of policy, Tim Scott, the latest Republican to declare he is interested in a 2024 presidential bid, runs largely with the current, following the party line on hot button matters from abortion to immigration. On issues of style, however, the only Black Republican in the U.S. Senate is swimming against the tide, betting that a relentless focus on unity and optimism can appeal in a party where many voters appear hungry for a bare-knuckled brawl. That sunny disposition was on display on Thursday at the Red Arrow Diner in Manchester, New Hampshire, a tiny greasy spoon serving French toast and pancakes, where Scott made small talk with patrons, some of whom appeared startled by the sudden arrival of a U.S. senator during breakfast. “What I found on the campaign trail is that people are starving for an optimistic message,” said Scott, after chatting to voters here, one day after announcing the launch of a presidential exploratory committee. Voters need to “focus on the progress we’ve made, and why we made that progress,” he added. In past elections, such rhetoric was unremarkable. President Ronald Reagan, a hero to many conservatives, famously cruised to re-election in 1984 saying, it was “morning in America,” a slogan borrowed by multiple Republicans since. Yet they are words unlikely to be uttered by leading 2024 Republican contenders now, at least by former President Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who have leaned on light-versus-dark imagery in the opening stages of the campaign. During one of his first campaign events in January, Trump pledged to “stop left-wing radical racists and perverts,” telling his supporters he was “angry.” DeSantis has gone aggressively after political opponents and others who oppose his policies in recent months. He is currently trying to strip Disney World of local government powers due to its opposition to legislation which restricts teaching on sexual orientation and gender identity in Florida public schools. He has also pushed for changes to the way Black history is taught. By contrast, ten prominent Scott supporters, including donors and party officials, said his sunny, inclusive demeanor is a major selling point in them being open to voting for him. But they acknowledged they were unsure if the South Carolina native’s positivity still sold among voters who feel besieged by what they see as a corrupt, leftist elite. Those feelings are particularly acute after Trump’s indictment earlier this month for his alleged role in hush-money payments to two women before the 2016 election. If Scott runs, his campaign will be an experiment that optimism still sells among Republican voters, they said. “In a primary setting, where you have mostly Republicans voting, many feel that America is under attack from within and what is required to turn things around are personalities like Donald Trump,” said Maurice Washington, the head of the Charleston County, South Carolina, Republican Party, and a confidante of Scott. “I know of Republicans on the other hand who feel that it is time to pause, take a deep breath and work more towards healing among all people, and that’s where Senator Scott is. The question is which side – or bubble – within the Republican Party is holding the most votes.” While Scott is within the conservative mainstream, he has attempted to portray himself as unusually compassionate, drawing on his personal experience as the impoverished child of a single mother. Among the policies he has supported, which he often highlights, are the creation of “opportunity zones” to boost blighted communities and a tax credit program which helps low-income families with children. Scott struggled to answer questions in New Hampshire on Thursday when pressed by reporters on his stance on abortion pills. He has backed a ban on abortion after 20 weeks of gestation, a position that divides Americans, opinion polls show. LONG ROAD AHEAD At the campaign stop in Manchester, Scott – who is well-known for his skill with face-to-face, “retail politics” – made small talk with patrons on topics as innocuous as baseball. “You know, the vision he’s putting forward is a positive vision for the future. I hope we see more of that from more candidates,” said Chris Maidment, a New Hampshire Republican county chair, while exiting the cramped diner where Scott spoke. Maidment jokingly knocked the senator for ordering grits, a dish more common in Scott’s South Carolina than in northern New England. If Scott formally enters the race, one major challenge will be boosting his name recognition, his supporters acknowledge. As of now, he has no more than 2% support in all major polls. Some potential donors find his positivity appealing but worry that he would struggle against Trump, who dominates headlines. He will also have to best another South Carolina native, former Governor Nikki Haley, who threw her hat into the ring in February and who shares a similar base of donors, allies and voters. “The people that are most stressed out about it are the donors,” said Chip Felkel, a South Carolina Republican operative. “Do they cut their contributions in half and split it, do they pick one, or do they keep their powder dry?” Chris Ager, the chair of the New Hampshire Republican Party and an attendee at the Scott event, said the state’s Republicans “welcome him to the debate.” But will they buy the sunny vision he is selling? “Time will tell,” Ager said. “I’ve heard both sides. As party chairman, I want to see unity. I want to see us together. But I also want to see somebody fighting the policies that we disagree with that are coming from the Democrats.” (Reporting by Gram Slattery, editing by Ross Colvin and Alistair Bell) View the full article

Published by Reuters KAMPALA (Reuters) – When Frank Mugisha came out two decades ago, being gay in Uganda could be lonely and uncomfortable, but it was rarely a matter of life and death. Since then, as Mugisha has emerged as the country’s most prominent LGBTQ rights activist, the perils have multiplied. In 2011, his friend and colleague David Kato was bludgeoned to death. Mugisha regularly receives death threats. Politicians and religious organisations have fanned anti-gay sentiment and lobbied for harsh legislation, culminating in parliament’s passage last month of a bill that would criminalise even identifying as LGBTQ. “The Ugandan population has been radicalised to fear and hate homosexuals,” Mugisha, 38, told Reuters during an interview outside the capital, Kampala. “If I was seven, nine, twelve, fourteen, I don’t think I would tell anyone I am gay right now,” he said. And yet, Mugisha says he will not give an inch in the face of the new bill, which is awaiting President Yoweri Museveni’s signature. The bill passed with near unanimous support in parliament. If Museveni signs it – as he is widely expected to – Mugisha’s work could land him in jail under a provision that punishes the “promotion” of homosexuality with up to 20 years in prison. But Mugisha said he feels an obligation to fight back on behalf of LGBTQ Ugandans, many of whom have left the country or fled their homes for safe houses since the bill was passed. “I guess I am going to be in trouble a lot because I am not going to stop,” Mugisha said. The bill also imposes the death penalty for so-called aggravated homosexuality, which includes having gay sex while HIV-positive. COMING OUT A practising Catholic typically seen in a blue suit and white shirt, Mugisha had what he calls a normal childhood, going to school and playing soccer in his Kampala neighbourhood. He realised he was gay as early as the age of seven but did not start to come out until he was 14. His parents turned to prayer and traditional healers before landing somewhere between denial and acceptance, he said. Mugisha said he encountered no overt hostility from friends about his sexuality, although some kept their distance for fear they would be suspected of being gay themselves. In 2007, Mugisha took over leadership of Sexual Minorities Uganda (SMUG), an advocacy group he had earlier joined as an activist. In the following years, he saw a hardening of anti-LGBTQ views, which he attributes to campaigning by ultra-conservative Christian groups, some from the United States. “Homophobia and this whole anti-gay sentiment are Western. They are not Ugandan,” he said. Same-sex relations were first criminalised in Uganda under British colonial rule. Mugisha said historically Ugandans “frowned” upon homosexuality but did not want to harm gay people. Ugandan officials, by contrast, often say LGBTQ rights are a Western imposition. Mugisha’s friend Kato was killed in 2011 months after a local newspaper printed the names, photographs and addresses of him and others in the LGBTQ community and called for them to be hanged. The police said the murder was unconnected to his sexual identity, but Mugisha is certain that it was. He considered leaving Uganda then, but he stayed and led the campaign against a law enacted in 2014 that stiffened penalties for same-sex relations. That law was ultimately voided by the courts on procedural grounds and Mugisha is hoping for a similar outcome this time. “Many people are going to … challenge this law,” he said. “Looking at this legislation, I do not think it will survive.” (Editing by Aaron Ross and Nick Macfie) View the full article
