    Sound Museum Boston is closing, where will local musicians rehearse?

    Sound Museum Boston is closing, where will local musicians rehearse?

    Sound Museum Boston is closing, where will local musicians rehearse? Mike Crawford interviews two longtime local artists, Dave Tree and Scott Matalon about the city of Boston's shady dealings related to the closure of Boston's cultural institution, The Sound Museum.
    https://www.wbur.org/news/2023/01/10/sound-museum-owners-cry-foul-as-their-tenants-likely-secure-new-spaces-without-them?fbclid=IwAR31RGmFvNNBOTk1nDwVtvNeQo-0IwLcOxOspqR-MjTpa_HPKWM56DJ7JLk
    The Desmonds believe The Record Co. was a beneficiary of favoritism, alleging that MASSCreative had a conflict of interest because the city’s chief of arts and culture, Kara Elliott-Ortega, chairs its board. Elliott-Ortega is in a relationship with The Record Co.’s executive director, Matt McArthur.
    “[Elliott-Ortega] wanted to get my tenants away from me for her boyfriend's business,” Katherine Desmond said. “It's unethical. It's unmoral. And I'm hoping to prove that it's illegal, and litigate against it.”

Ready to tell my story!’

I messaged you on IG. I am ready to tell my story finally, I might be risking my life talking, but it needs to be out. I was healthy before Trulieve. Not all cannabis, just Trulieve.

Amazing work

It's great to see cannabis activism still going strong. It's even better watching people joining together to hold these conglomerates accountable. I look forward to watching more of these livestreams and listening to more of these podcasts! Keep up the amazing work. And, thank you for giving cannabis workers a voice that these companies work so hard to suppress!
