Addressing Concerns From Equity Sings about Choralosophy


Listen Later

I plan to keep it is short as possible. Presenting what I see as three categories of this controversy ranging from legit criticisms I need to seriously consider, to misunderstandings to things that just aren’t true. This weekend an argument or debate of sorts erupted on a post of mine on my personal FB page. “Kids from families of all political philosophies are welcome in my class. Their parents are welcome at all of our events.” I stand by this statement.

But some commenters were not not happy with it, and took the opportunity to use some pretty strong language in opposition to my message. But that argumentation has turned to some very concrete and specific accusations and criticisms. I will address the ones that are fair, and the ones that crossed a line.

In this response to Arreon Harley-Emerson of Equity Sings, I address:
  • 1. The terrible racist message sent to his website on my behalf
  • 2. My ill timed, and ill considered social media videos on the election.
  • 3. Arreon’s choice to take screenshots of various things not said by me, plus ONE thing I said published without context, and tie these things together into one new story. This was unfair and dishonest.
  • 4. My process for creating clips and quotes for show promotion, and ways I can be more sensitive in the future to guests and their needs and desires. I can get better at this.
  • 5. My belief that Arreon has crossed a line in threatening to “out” 2700 colleagues who are members of my private FB group. This is not ok.
