Bocafloja ft Alexandra Blakely and Guerrilla Queenz-Taciturno

This song features BocaflojaAlexandra Blakely and Guerrilla Queenz.

This track provides a context for the condition of (dis)placement. It reframes the complexities of the term, and means that arise when persons experiencing the condition are able to speak in their own voices. (Dis)placement is manifested in our bodies as diaspora persons, it is understood in the racialized hierarchies imposed on our flesh, it is the means by which settler colonialism continues to (dis)place indigenous persons. The song also highlights, the condition imposed on bodies in space through processes such as gentrification and capitalist development that undermine community self-development and (force) migration through rhetorical justifications such as "urban renewal".
