Those in italics have five or more pieces of usable visual, written, or audio propaganda already. If you have any visuals like photos or videos, or if you have something to say in words, submit it to this blog before round one begins on June 25th!

If you don't see a name you submitted here, it's because most or all of their career was as a child/they were too young for the cutoff, their career was almost entirely after 1979, or music was something they only dabbled in and are hardly known for. There are quite a few ladies on the list whose primary career wasn't "recording artist" or "live musician," but released several albums or were in musical theater, so they've been accepted.

I'd love to see more sources on black ppl in the punk scene :-)!!

Ya of course!!!! These cover more overall rock but here's a few books I still suuuuper recommend

Rip It Up: The Black Experience in Rock N Roll by Kandia Crazy Horse

A great anthology of articles and interviews with black rock artists and fans dating back to the 70s. One of the articles featured is White Noise Supremacists by Lester Bangs (originally published 1979) which is a really interesting look into early punk culture's flippant attitude around appropriating white supremacist symbols and being racist/homophobic/antisemitic "ironically." cw there's tons of slurs in this article

Black Diamond Queens: African American Women in Rock and Roll by Maureen Mahon

A very recent book! Each section looks into various influential women in Rock, including Big Mama Thornton (the original and far superior singer of Hound Dog,) Tina Turner, Betty Davis, and the Shirelles to name a few.

bookshop.org

thriftbooks

Be My Baby by Ronnie Spector

The late great Ronnie Spector's autobiography. The black girl groups of the 60s were a massive part of the genesis of "classic" rock as we know it, and the Ronettes in particular were INCREDIBLY formative artists. The Rolling Stones opened for THEM. Another cw: Ronnie was in an abusive relationship with their producer Phil Spector for much of their career, and this is discussed at length in the book so read with care.

A few relevant books I have yet to read:

Dreadnaught: King of Afropunk, by D.H. Peligro of Dead Kennedys fame

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?: A Black Woman’s Life and Liberation in Heavy Metal, by Laina Dawes (who wrote the article Why I Was Never A Riot Grrrl)

Here's a few online sources tooooooo

One of the last interviews with Poly Styrene before she passed

HIV and the Journey Toward Zero Part 1 from Journey Towards Zero on Vimeo.

"HIV and the Journey Toward Zero" sparks important conversations around the end of the HIV epidemic. What does “the end” mean for those who have been there from the start, those living with HIV today and those leading the way to an HIV-free future?

"HIV and the Journey Toward Zero" spotlights the perspective of some of Chicago’s most prominent activists. The film is presented in partnership with the Chicago Department of Public Health, Tessa Films and local community organizations. Join us as we hear from long-term survivors, newly diagnosed individuals, clinicians, researchers and community leaders — the voices that, together, can make HIV history.

[sacredcyber]

I wanna compile information for Veruca here, my current play through is really helping me get back into her head so to speak lmao

Veruca's full name is Veruca Elise Richter-Dominguez. She was born to Anna Richter and Rogelio Dominguez. Veruca is named after her maternal grandmother, Marlene Veruca von Brandenburg, She grew up bouncing between Berlin and Charter Hill. She speaks English, Spanish and German.

Veruca's nicknames include, V, Ruca, Ronnie (vik, Misty, Johnny)

In the ending where Johnny gets his own body, and they become separated, Veruca changes her name to Veronica Brandenburg. After making things official with Johnny she goes by Ronnie Linder.

She grew up pretty isolated, as an only child she found a lot of refuge in reading and playing video games. She had a fixation on technology as a kid, one of her favorite pastimes was reading her dad's manual on his ancient Hitachi 95 cyberdeck and fiddling around with it's internals, soon that lead her to discovering the net.

Becoming a netrunner just made sense to her, it was a way she could reach out to people and maybe find some friends with a common interest. Her handle is V31L. At 14 She met her best friends through the net, a nomad girl named Sunnie Kim and her older brother Charlie. The three of them spent their days netrunning and meeting up in virtual space to hang out, eventually Veruca was able to start sneaking away to the badlands to hang out irl.

The two girls were inseparable, Veruca found a kindred spirit in Sunnie, and sunnie found the same. Both girls would spend their summers desert camping and off-roading with Charlie. Charlie became Veruca’s introduction to a lot of things, new music, hacking, love. She fell hard for the young rockerboy, if things didn’t happen the way they did, Veruca and Charlie probably would have ended up together.

Things did end up taking a turn for the worst, on the precipice of veruca’s 18th birthday she had planned on cutting all ties with her family and running away to travel with sunnie and Charlie. As they approached the border crossing point a band of armored henchmen flanked their Thornton, the three travelers dragged out into the hot California desert. Veruca was held at gunpoint and forced to watch the execution of her best friend and boyfriend before being dragged back to charter hill. Her parents had planned the whole execution as a means to bring her “back into the fold”

Thornton Legacy

Generation 1 super update - part one

I started playing this legacy recently, with the founder prompted by my friend. I decided I want to blog the legacy, but instead of starting over, I am just going to do a couple of longish Gen1 superposts. I didn't really take any gameplay photos so you're just gonna have to take my word for it on the shenanigans.

Amber Thornton, Founder

My friend's prompt for Amber was just a girl who lives in a trailer park and keeps getting pregnant, so that's where we started, lol

Traits: Loves the Outdoors, High Maintenance, Cringe Career: Culinary

I built a little trailer park in Newcrest for Amber to live in. (Sorry for the build mode outline around the lot, I am lazy.)

Amber met her neighbor, Faiz Jaleel, and they hit it off right away and started dating. She got pregnant pretty quickly, but while pregnant she rolled the want to break up with Faiz, so they broke up.

Amber had her first baby, Ronnie, with Faiz, shortly after the breakup. (This is Ronnie as an adult, obvs.)

Amber's next love interest was Joaquin Le Chien. They actually got married before Amber got pregnant. Amber got a mysterious phone call that she would receive an inheritance if she got married within 7 days. She inherited $100k! While she was pregnant, he cheated on her with Izzy Fabulous, so they divorced. Joaquin took half the money.

Amber gave birth to Desirae shortly after the divorce.

Part two coming shortly!
