Written by EMILY BASS Posted August 1, 2019 Filed Under: A+E, Visual Arts

"All anti-oppressive and liberating issues are important to me, but I concern myself mostly with black and brown liberation, queer and trans liberation, anticapitalist redistribution of resources, and global warming."

THIS IS REALLY A LOVE STORY

Written by CHRIS FARAONE Posted February 12, 2019 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Dear Reader

Every line I enter into my computer about the Hub is also part of a love story, because like a parent in the 1950s (or today, I guess) attempting to rationalize smacking their kids, I truly love the objects of my animosity. Oftentimes, it hurts me more than it hurts Boston to level such relentless criticism.
