Black Man Attends Punk Show Without Anyone Mentioning Bad Brains
Quote:
Duke University musicology professor Stewart Washington noted this may be the first instance of an African-American attending a punk show without someone mentioning Bad Brains in over 20 years.
“When a white person sees a black person at a punk show, it triggers an overload of neural activity… not unlike a seizure,” he said. “Often, they’ll begin explaining how elegantly Bad Brains blended reggae and punk, without even realizing they’ve been talking at someone for over 25 minutes.”
