On the day before Hillary Clinton suspends her campaign… Having read so much about the angst and anger of 70s era feminists regarding Hillary’s loss (understandable, but also, it would seem, more a product of a poor campaign strategy than institutional discrimination — she was running against an African American, after all)… Actually loving 80s film and also having watched the Democratic Primary more closely than any other political drama in my lifetime, I believe it is time to turn to the wisdom of a powerful gen-x female, Dana of NY, NY. She is extremely funny in person and also in blog form. In her blog, Party in the Back, Dana frames current events with the plots, characters, tones of 80s film. She recently used the characters in Breakfast Club to document Hillary Clinton’s journey through the primary season. Extremely good stuff!
Don’t forget: SUNDAY, JUNE 8, RIOT ACT at the TURF, 7PM!
