1-800-ON-HER-OWN at Monty Hall
In 1990, indie folk musician and feminist Ani DiFranco did an end-run around the major labels by starting her own record label, Righteous Babe, which is still going strong 35 years later. Prince called her “my hero” for her independent stance in the music industry. On Thurs, May 15th, Monty Hall will present the documentary 1-800-ON-HER-OWN, which explores Ani DiFranco’s dedication to music and activism on her own hard-won terms. The film will be hosted by DJ Therese and a Q&A with producer Amy Hobby will follow the film. 8pm, $15. Get your tickets in advance here.
