racism in indie music

this is from 2 months ago, fyi, but i hadn't seen it...

if you have a minute for interweb fighting, and especially if you're an anti-racist who travels in indie rock scenes - take a minute to weigh in on the below. hey, at least you don't have to watch a team gina video.

Gravy Train!!! Calls out the Black Lips and gets bashed by Atlanta indie rockers

i love the response from Jared (on a GOLF COURSE) saying that his tolerance of Brontez making out with a guy is proof that he didn't say anything racist. if that isn't a window into his mindset, and broadly the ironically-racist-hipster mentality - i don't know what is. also the fucking author uses "multicultural" as a descriptor of gravytrain!!!'s music. just sayin.

racism, music
