Alice Bag: We are conduits for ideas, we are agents of change.

While I’ve been busy organizing various elements for
Ventura College’s Earth Day (go here to learn more)
and preparing to meet with Ventura College Associated students Tuesday March 18, my students have been organizing their own presentations and preparing their own blogs about their “book club books” which have included
Alice Bag
‘s
Violence Girl
and
Tony Fletcher
‘s
A Boy About Town
(they also had the option of reading Cheryl Strayed’s
Wild
or Tim O’Brien’s
The Things They Carried
.) Both Tony and Alice are interested in coming to Ventura College and speaking on Earth Day and hopefully sharing the music that has inspired them and their autobiographies! As they were both active in the punk and DIY scene around the same time frame but on different continents, I’d love to hear them in conversation as well. I’m hopeful that my students’ blogs will help me convince them!
