My Original Goal In The '90s, After I Found Feminism And I Was The First Generation In My Family To Go To College, Was To Spread This Information That Feminism Was Still Very Much Alive, And That You Can't Believe The Media Telling You That It Doesn't Need To Exist And That It Doesn't Exist.

People Need To Stand Up, Women Need To Stand Up For Each Other And Say, "no You Can't Kick This Person Like They're A Dog. You Can Disagree With Someone Politically, You Can Have Arguments, Definitely Privilege Needs To Be Discussed In Real Productive And Valid Ways. But It's Not Real Criticism If It's Just Like, "you're A Disgusting Bad Person."

I Was Never Trying To Be The Voice For Anybody Else. I Was Just Trying To Sing About What I Was Going Through, And Was Singing About Those Things Specifically Because I Knew There Was An Audience Not Being Served.

Part Of Being In A Band, Being A Painter, Or Starting A Nonprofit Is That You're Going To Make Horrible Mistakes And Look Like A Total Idiot, But You're Never Going To Create That Thing That Really Connects With People If You Don't Fail Over And Over And Over Again.
