Post #1: invective and spleen

This is post #1 to "Radical Musicology."

I've created this as a space in parallel with several other blogs. Those others are ones I know my own students read, but I also know that many of my students see political and social-justice issues differently than do I.

I'm intending to post the most radical political material here, no longer over there, so that those students who are made uncomfortable by invective and spleen can focus on the topics in the original blog. I want my people to feel happy and comfortable about visiting for the pedagogy & scholarship topics, even if they prefer to avoid the more inflammatory stuff.

What follows will be the most recent invective from over there, now moved over here.
