I referenced this article in class earlier today, so I thought posting the actual article describing Tom Morello, Rage Against the Machine's guitarist's reaction.

That's pretty great. The embodiment of the "mainstream" co-opting and misinterpreting something of value for its own good.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this article, but one thing kept coming back to me while reading. Do we really trust Tom Morello's points of view? Definitely his opinions matter, but his tone just continually makes me wonder.
