Abstract
The ‘war on woke’ is the latest iteration of a rightwing culture war that has raged for decades. Performance artists and other non-conforming identities find themselves being demonised by political gatekeepers to leverage control of expressions of cultural identity. Performance can provide a new horizon for resistance to assimilationist policies by locating otherness within a relational field not dependent on logocentric modes of expression to be meaningful.
