Hey guys, I owe you nothing. You don’t have to like my communication. I’ll take up as much space as I need. Most people expect women to be quiet. I’m not. You can read my writing in some published books. It’s all on my website, which is in my signature. Next up is an article on Detroit and resistance in the first Oxford Handbook of Electronic Dance Music. It’s a pretty big series.
I’ve never unsubscribed. This is the 313 list, not the IDM list. It’s pretty important. I used to never or rarely talk on this list. Now I speak up more. It’s super patriarchal of everyone to gang up on the woman. Often, I get private messages of support from subscribers when I speak up on this list. I’ll email the 313 list any time I have something to contribute. Denise Dalphond On Wed, Feb 26, 2020 at 12:45 PM Joe Marougi <jmaro...@gmail.com> wrote: > Very well said.
