Category: lindy hop and other dances. There is always something you can do, and always a chance to say something. And as I was talking to my friends the other day, I said:. I think about that girl. Not saying anything. Not objecting. But silently wishing, praying. I think about her terror. I think about how often those ‘chances to do something’ happened, but we didn’t do anything. Do something. Now. That’s why I keep being a goddamm pain in the fucking arse. Because there are plenty of chances ...Hey, yo...

I think it’s fucked up, and I refuse to accept it as in any way legit. But I think my ...

There is always something you can do, and always a chance to say something. I was having a conversation with some friends the other day about why I’m so fucking fierce about stamping out sexual harassment and assault. Or rather, why I continue kicking up shit and being a pain in the arse. Even when it’s scary to confront famous, powerful organisers and dancers. Even when the consequences for me mean losing DJing gigs or teaching gigs or other real world stuff. Do something. Now. That’s why I keep b...
