Scents and Sensibility
Dogs have an especially keen sense of smell, they use it to tell them about their world: what’s good to eat, what’s dangerous, which way is home. I think about my own scent memories and associations. Here are a few:
The scent of Night Blooming Jasmine: when I was a teen in East LA, my bedroom window was right up against my mother’s garden. On warm nights when the window was...

The Yellow Star Protest - SB 1070

I'm My Own Kind of Chicana
“If the cause is equality, we need to include as many people as possible, including people from other races, gender identities, socio-economic backgrounds. As you can see, I embrace the term Chicana and use it. I am concerned with Chicana politics but I don’t feel like I have to agree with or follow any kind of party line. I’m my own kind of Chicana like I’m my own kind...
What The Swastika Means To Me
A repost of my blog:
My last blog entry about racism in the early L.A. punk scene got quite a bit of feedback and I’d like to clarify and expand on one of the subjects: the use of the swastika by punks.

Questions about Castration Squad?
Got any burning questions about Castration Squad since we are posting old photos lately? Did you know that Castration Squad gave Christian Death their first shot at a live gig?
Oh my.. How did they met?
I need to add the fact that there is a guy that goes by Casey Strange on Facebook and somehow he has gotten the rights to all photos of Rozz on Facebook. Now no one can post anything Rozz related.
I'm not sure how CSquad met Rozz, possibly thru Shannon? I knew a couple of members from Riverside through the punk scene because we had talked about starting our own band around the time the Bags were ending and Castration Squad was starting up. Probably a case of right time, right place, like-minded people.
