Lately, my music player has been playing a lot of Doria Roberts and every time it happens, it takes me right back to the first few weeks of college. Arriving at Mount Holyoke College and, amongst other things, being so overwhelmed at living amongst some many queer people for the first time. It blew my little mind. So I went to see Doria Roberts play on campus and being so thrilled (women like this come and play at MY college?!?) that I found myself wandering down to Hampshire College to see her play again a few days later. I just could not get enough of how political and angry and romantic and attractive she was. I remember with so much fondness the unbridled joy of it all that I wanted to share a tiny piece of it with you.
Hope y’all had a great Coming Out Day yesterday!
I think your post is very nice. I am sure my Aunt would appreciate what you said about her music.
Ahhhh I still love Doria and I remember going with you to Hampshire to see her. I think she even brushed by us at one point.
I think she did too! That was a really fun night.
