Anne Elizabeth Moore joins the Feminist Agenda to discuss her latest book, Gentrifier: A Memoir. From Catapult: In 2016, a Detroit arts organization grants writer and artist Anne Elizabeth Moore a free house—a room of her own, à la Virginia Woolf—in Detroit's majority-Bangladeshi “Banglatown.” Accompanied by her cats, Moore moves to the bungalow in her new city where she gardens, befriends the neighborhood youth, and grows to intimately understand civic collapse and community solidarity. When the troubled history of her prize house comes to light, Moore finds her life destabilized by the aftershocks of the housing crisis and governmental corruption. This is also a memoir of art, gender, work, and survival. Moore writes into the gaps of Woolf's declaration that “a woman must have money and a room of one's own if she is to write”; what if this woman were queer and living with chronic illness, as Moore is, or a South Asian immigrant, like Moore's neighbors? And what if her primary coping mechanism was jokes? Part investigation, part comedy of a vexing city, and part love letter to girlhood, Gentrifier examines capitalism, property ownership, and whiteness, asking if we can ever really win when violence and profit are inextricably linked with victory. Anne Elizabeth Moore was born in Winner, South Dakota. She has written several critically acclaimed nonfiction books, including the Lambda Literary Award–nominated Body Horror: Capitalism, Fear, Misogyny, Jokes, which was a Chicago Public Library Best Book of 2017, and Sweet Little Cunt, which won an Eisner Award. She lives in Hobart, New York, with her cat, Captain America.

Moore, the co-author of Game Misconduct: Hockey's Toxic Culture and How to Fix It, and revisits a segment from four years ago that takes us underneath Read-Dunning Park on the northwest side of Chicago. And Mike gives some love to The Hideout after that venue was vandalized twice in a month.

In this episode we talk about March book 3 by John Lewis, Threadbare by Anne Elizabeth Moore, and a number of short works by Dave Ortega.
OMG drunkers, you do not know how frustrating the process of recording episode 11 was. Apparently the universe was not pleased with us, so Skype kicked us out of our conversation approximately one thousand times. So, when Olivia's voice starts sounding weird near the end, that's because we had to switch to Facetime. Wah-wah. However, we made it through and it was worth it! This week, we read Threadbare: Clothes, Sex, and Trafficking by Anne Elizabeth Moore and the Ladydrawers. This graphic novel was illuminating, to say the least! This episode, we discussed: the fact that neither of us are the best at reading graphic novels (it takes practice!), how this book was similar in structure to Modern Romance, how very very complicated the sex trade is, and the monumental importance of making ethical clothes choices. Listen up, bbs! Olivia drinks: maker's mark, lingonberry syrup, and water (I don't know what that is, either) Ashley drinks: gin and tonic (with lime essential oil, hayyyo!) We read: Threadbare: Clothes, Sex, and Trafficking by Anne Elizabeth Moore and the Ladydrawers Up next: The Woman in Cabin Ten by Ruth Ware

Hello, lovely drunkers! This week, we bring you episode 10, all about The Girl on the Train. This week we discuss soooo much. Ashley's drinking and Olivia's sick, so it's a magical combo. For instance, we discuss: the book equivalent of flaming hots, #englishmajorproblems, Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, John Krakashmaka, finally succeeding at drinking a drink that matches the book, booze in cans, Cost Plus aspirations, sneaking booze into places, Pringles scams, gif vs jif, Olivia's rampant jealousy (lawl), the slow reveal, being complicit with Rachel's blackouts and guilt, manipulative men, women and motherhood, well-loved books, and oh my god the list goes on. Just listen, bbs. Olivia drinks: water Ashley drinks: gin and tonic (not in a can, tho) We read: The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins Up next: Threadbare: Clothes, Sex, and Trafficking by Anne Elizabeth Moore and The Ladydrawers

Duncan and Terri talk to Anne Elizabeth Moore about her book Unmarketable: Brandalism, Copyfighting, Mocketing, and the Erosion of Integrity and related topics. For years the do-it-yourself (DIY)/punk underground has worked against the logic of mass production and creative uniformity, disseminating radical ideas and directly making and trading goods and services. But what happens when the underground becomes just another market? What happens when the very tools that the artists and activists have used to build word of mouth are coopted by corporate America? What happens to cultural resistance when it becomes just another marketing platform? Unmarketable examines the corrosive effects of corporate infiltration of the underground. Activist and author Anne Elizabeth Moore takes a critical look at the savvy advertising agencies, corporate marketing teams, and branding experts who use DIY techniques to reach a youth market—and at members of the underground who have helped forward corporate agendas through their own artistic, and occasionally activist, projects. Covering everything from Adbusters to Tylenol’s indie-star-studded Ouch! campaign, Unmarketable is a lively, funny, and much-needed look at what’s happening to the underground and what it means for activism, commerce, and integrity in a world dominated by corporations. Anne Elizabeth Moore is the co-editor of Punk Planet, the Best American Comics series editor, and the author of Hey Kidz! Buy This Book: A Radical Primer on Corporate and Governmental Propaganda and Artistic Activism for Short People. She has written for Bitch, the Chicago Reader, In These Times, The Onion, The Progressive, and Chicago Public Radio WBEZ’s radio program 848. She lives in Chicago. I will mail 5 bucks to the first person who can identify the name of the artist and title of the song used to close the show, it has bothered me for years that I don’t know who it is.
