| Introduction | With endless passion for women’s soccer, and with palms made sweaty by nearly every member of a certain Mannschaft that is not Team USA, Angela Tavares has written for goal.com and was quoted in the Atlantic Monthly on this very topic. But, contrary to popular beliefs, “jock” can meet “punk,” and so she founded Agitprop! Records, a Boston-based queer punk and hip hop record label, back in the day. Her short fiction has been published on 30pov.com and in the anthology “Userlands: New Fiction Writers from the Blogging Undergound,” which was edited by Dennis Cooper and published by Akashic. She’s now writing a novel, just like everyone else you know. |
