RIP Rod Misey.

Two days after delighting everyone at the 50th anniversary reunion of the old gang from WCVT Towson (then-State) University's freeform radio station, legendary punk radio DJ Rod Misey passed away.

Gutted that I missed it. My last chat with Rod was him asking me to attend the reunion. Poverty did not permit that. So I'll say what needs saying here:

Thanks, Rod. Those Fridays with me in the afternoon and you afterward with the punk were so fun and taught me so much... Grateful that you kept the goodness going for four decades! Listening to the Feelies and your final WVUD playlist (from a couple weeks ago!) in your honor.

I hope you dig heaven.

In response to the information in the [shared] article below, I've just upped my monthly donation to PBS. I had already dropped my subscription to Paramount before this news.

For #TwoSpirits, An Opportunity To Reclaim Acceptance Across #IndianCountry

#KLCC | By Brian Bull
Published November 29, 2018

"The term '#TwoSpirit' in #NativeAmerican culture often describes a person possessing both male and female spirits. And they’ve been around well before the Santa Maria or the Mayflower dropped anchor. And while 'Two Spirit has been used for Indians who identify as gay, bisexual, or transgender…many say there’s more to it than that. KLCC’s Brian Bull explores a community that’s finding its voice again after generations of oppression, prejudice, and oversight.

"This summer, the annual #Powwow in #SiletzOregon presented something subtle…yet powerful.

"A new sign affirming tribal members could compete in the gender category of their preference debuted at this year's annual #SiletzPowWow.

"Lisa Norton, a member of the #ConfederatedTribesOfSiletz Indians, explains.

"'It’s a competition pow-wow, so people dance in categories…traditionally male or female.

"'So one of the things we wanted to do was #ungender that, so we were able to post a sign that said we were an open and affirming pow-wow. And that people could feel free to compete in the category they desired.'

"It was the first time such a sign was posted at the event. This pleased #JackieCloud, a Chippewa who identifies as a 'Two Spirit'.

"'And I also saw Two Spirit individuals out there dancing. And I was like, 'YEAH! Cool!'

"Cloud joined the other dancers.

"'Y’know there’s that twinge of excitement, exhilaration, oh like…it’s okay. And I commented to someone that I was with there at the pow-wow, and she said, 'That’s where we need to be. That’s where we need to be going.'

"'And so I was very proud of the tribe of #Siletz to…to acknowledge that.'"
