On and on, and on and on; my cipher keeps movin' like a rollin' stone
Quote with 18 notes
There are now many historians who study popular culture, lowbrow entertainment, and the people of the streets, but I am always dismayed to find that they treat every saloon, high-heel shoe, or rock song as something else. If they are sympathetic to the people who consumed them, such things are remade into ‘resistance’ against oppression or ‘collective alternatives’ to capitalist individualism. God forbid they could be simply and only ‘fun.’
— Thaddeus Russell, A Renegade History of the United States (New York: Free Press, 2010), xi.
