PARADA PONOSA 2005
Humor je rahločutnost brezupa.
(Iz knjige "Kako sem hčeri razložil rasizem")
Maja Pan: "Moj protest je usmerjen zoper medikalizacijo homoseksualnosti.
Po drugi strani pa kritizira vase srkajoče potrošništvo, ki v Sloveniji
že nekaj časa sprevrača vrednote kot so človekove pravice v demokraciji,
v funkcijo floskule oz. potrošnega materiala s primestne tržnice.
To potrjujejo tako posamezniki, ki me zastopajo v parlamentu, kot
večina državnih in cerkvenih tajnikov."
Maja Pan: "My protest targets the medicalization
of homosexuality on the one hand and the destructive, all-encompassing
force of consumerism on the other. The latter has put values such
as human rights in Western democracies (including Slovenia) at
risk and is threatening to completely undermine them by turning
them into an empty-phrase or a form of consumer goods that can
be easily obtained at the nearest fair or city market. This trend
can be traced and is becoming ever more evident from the actions
taken by individuals such as state and church officials who take
it as their duty to speak on my behalf in precisely this manner.
Their talk about human rights that homosexuals can or cannot claim
for their own extends no further than that of a political shopping
basket. The talk about human rights homosexuals can or cannot
claim for themselves is a part of a rhetorical game the political
parties are playing at in order to advance their own agendas that
have nothing to do with securing the actual rights of homosexuals
themselves."
Protestnica je oblečena v zdravniško haljo, na hrbtu ima napis
ZDRAVIM HOMOSEKSUALCE, potiska nakupovalni voziček, v katerem
sta dve škatli z napisoma DEMOKRACIJA in ČLOVEKOVE PRAVICE.
The protester is wearing a doctor’s outfit;
the slogan on her back reads “I treat homosexuals”; the shopping
trolley she is pushing in front of her contains two boxes labelled
DEMOCRACY and HUMAN RIGHTS.
Urška Merc: "Protestiram z izveskom, saj parada ponosa zame
ni gej parada, ampak javna politična akcija raznoraznih mislečih
ljudi, ki so zavestni osi nasilja močnejših nad šibkejšimi, oblastnikov
nad vladanimi, poročenimi nad neporočenimi, človeškim nad nečloveškim,
... Zagovarjam antiglobalistično feministično akcijo za pravice
lezbijk in pravice živali."
Urška Merc: "I’m using the sign as a
form of protest because the pride parade for me is not exclusively
and not only a gay parade but a public manifestation and a political
act staged by a variety of different people with diverse and yet
shared points of view. They are all united in one cause as they
recognize the axis of violence where the more powerful rule over
and oppress the less powerful, the married loom above and oppress
the unmarried, the humans act against what is postulated as non-human,
etc.
I stand for the anti-globalist feminist action that fights for the
lesbian rights and the rights of animals."
