It made me understand the value of what we \u201cdo\u201d and the responsibility of carrying it out in a cultural institution. I am a shy person. My place at events is not at all to greet people at the entrance door with a drink in hand, giving out kisses and hugs. Nor is it in the front row, as I tend to stay behind, in the background, crossing my fingers, nervous about everything turning out well. When people read this, some of them will think that I am dull, but I am changing and the transformation towards enjoyment has a lot to do with that day, October 20, 2017, and that night in a Casa Encendida, full of the most diverse and beautiful people from Madrid. They had put three racialized women on a stage making electronic music, it was the first time in Madrid for the three of them and they produced the sounds of the African diaspora in its confluences with club culture. Writing this text makes me reflect on the possibility of change in cultural programming, achieving that hitherto difficult balance between what has to be seen and what must be shown and heard, without catering to the elites or commercial consumption. It is about finding a place to share work that otherwise would not find a place and adding feminism without subtracting one iota from the playful and aesthetic side. That seemingly impossible binomial, to think-dance, happened, and most importantly, it has continued to happen. N\u00eddia, Nkisi and Deena Abdelwahed were the first to decolonize the <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Festival_She_Makes_Noise\">She Makes Noise<\/a> festival. Rhythms such as <em>kuduro, tarraxo, batida, <\/em>and<em> kizomba,<\/em> or ideas such as Afrofuturist sounds, became common. All of this happened with the support of the institution and in a context that makes the common experience of electronic music a safe space for everyone. A few months ago, friends of El Palomar from this same platform demanded a non-binary future, and they also criticized the misuse of pronouns by managers, and I agree with the teaching of inclusive language. This necessary break with the entire patriarchal system is another responsibility that those of us who work in culture have and must have. Fluid people have brought about a revolution in electronic culture, they have been able to channel their artistic practice with total freedom and to relate it to other disciplines such as performance. The famous phrase attributed to the performing arts of \u201cto put the body into it\u201d leads to a repositioning of the bodies of the artists and the public participating in these events. Sweating bodies, bodies that dance, bodies that listen, political bodies. In the 21st century, the revolution is underway.
