"Preferring “your music” is fine and good. But sticking stiffly to the stance you arrived in, claiming the territory of your tastes, and leaving unchanged, isn’t what live music is for. American studies scholar Charles Keil has written that “music is our last and best source of participatory consciousness,” containing the “capacity not just to model but maybe to enact some ideal communities.” Art is our imaginative space, and live music a communal one. If we can’t welcome difference there, something is deeply wrong." salon/2013/08/01/white_music_fans_are_afraid_of_difference/
