San Francisco, CA. –  RADAR Productions, a San Francisco-based queer literary arts non-profit organization, presents the Sister Spit Next Generation’s 6th annual North American Tour.  Featuring literary luminary Michelle Tea, (Best Music Writing 2010, Chelsea Whistle, Valencia, Rent Girl), legendary writer Dorothy Allison (Bastard Out of Carolina, Two or Three Things I Know for Sure, Skin: Talking About Sex, Class and Literature), singer, songwriter and Tony-nominated performance artist Mx Justin Vivian Bond, feature filmmaker Cheryl Dunye (The Watermelon Woman, My Baby’s Daddy, Stranger Inside), writer and performance artist Erin Markey (Green Eyes, Puppy Love: A Stripper’s Tail), nationally acclaimed slam poet Kit Yan (HBO’s Asians Aloud) and comic artist and writer Cassie J. Sneider (Fine Fine Music.)

The next generation of queer?

Sister Spit was established in San Francisco in the early 1990’s as a weekly all-female open mic series, co-founded by Michelle Tea and Sini Anderson. The duo launched the first Sister Spit national tour in 1997: 2 vans chock-full with cutting-edge dyke female writers and performers. Since its inception, Sister Spit has crossed the country many times and re-merged in 2007 as Sister Spit- Next Generation featuring established writers with young, emerging queer and queer-influenced artists of all genders.
