The NYC Radical Cheerleaders are hosting a "Radical Cheerleading Training Camp" on 12/4 at Bluestockings bookstore in the evening (exact time TBA - check Compass for Change calendar for final listing)

Bluestockings Bookstore - 172 Allen Street at Stanton Street on the Lower East Side

The NYC Radical Cheerleaders are seeking new members for our squad. Come to this training to learn some of the creative protest tactics, dance moves and fashion secrets which have made protest fun again for cheerleaders across the globe.

We are a collectively run radical cheerleading squad open to queer, straight and transgendered women and men, youth and adults living in the boroughs of New York City.

Radical cheerleading is protest with pom poms, dissent with middle fingers extended. Tired of the same left, right, left, radical cheerleaders reinvigorate the idea of political protest by making it fun to participate in dissent. Radical cheerleading has been known to de-escalate police violence, stage spontaneous cheer-offs in subway stations, have incredibly original fashion sense, educate and empower individuals to become more active in their communities for social change.

Our squad meets on a bi-weekly basis (every other week) for practice. (Yes, you can tell your coworkers and friends that you are going to cheerleading practice after work/school!)
