Thanks. Anybody see the DC go-go presentation or the controversial I think one that criticized riot grrl as racist and classist

Is there a pop con 2021 thread?
Heard some of the Black Critic round table with longtime critics like Greg Tate, Daniel Smith, Wesley Morris, Daphne Brooks
― curmudgeon, Saturday, 24 April 2021 02:54 (two years ago) link
Also Thulani Davis and Kimberly Mack
Interesting, although there was some grumbling about kids in college these days don’t know Afrika Baambaata etc stuff, and Tate talking about old school 1980s Voice stuff in a way that both had me wishing to hear younger critics . But they are all so bright and courageous that this is just nitpicking

It was an extremely good panel, that one. But the whole day was a treat. Alfred brought some prime ILX-level snark, dare I say.

This Marvin Gaye discussion going on now is really interesting. Discussion of album sonics as well musicians and their parents and more . Panelists Mark Anthony Neal, Shana Redmond. Guthrie Ramsey, Lynee Denise, & moderator RJ Smith

I wish they’d make these available on YouTube or something. I missed one about the US South as it was going on at the same time as the Black older critics round table. I missed some of that one too, plus some of Mark Anthony Neal re Marvin Gaye What’s Going On

Per comments elsewhere, every session including Q&A was recorded and there are plans for wider availability, I gather.
