  • Playlist in 1969, Yale University Admitted Its First Women Undergraduates, Thus Ending 268 Years As an All-Male College
    YALE NEEDS WOMEN Playlist In 1969, Yale University admitted its first women undergraduates, thus ending 268 years as an all-male college. Yale Needs Women (Sourcebooks, 2019) tells their story. Here is the playlist to go with it: 22 songs released between 1969 and 1972, plus a two-song prelude from 1967. A quick scan will show that male performers outnumber women on this playlist, perhaps an odd choice given the Yale Needs Women title. It’s a reflection of the times, however. The music industry needed women too. You can find this playlist on Spotify. Search anne.g.perkins, or use this link: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4aXLc1veNkKCMqCWd0biKE To find out more about Yale Needs Women and the first women undergraduates at Yale, go to yaleneedswomen.com. Many thanks to Rick High, Lily and Mac Perkins-High, and David and Ginger Kendall for their help in creating this playlist. Sources for the liner notes below are at the end. PRELUDE: 1967 1. Aretha Franklin, RESPECT. Aretha Franklin was the first woman ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and “Respect” was her first song to hit #1. She was twenty-five years old, six years into an abusive marriage that she would end in 1969, a black woman in a nation where that status meant double discrimination. “All I’m askin’ is for a little respect.” 2. Country Joe and The Fish, I-FEEL-LIKE-I’M-FIXIN’-TO-DIE RAG. Released in November 1967, the I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-To-Die Rag became one of the country’s most popular Vietnam War protest songs, particularly after its performance at Woodstock in August 1969.

FOREWORD On January 6, 2021, as this zine was being designed, democratic organizers in Georgia woke up celebrating their hard won victory of winning two house seats in the US Senate. Later that afternoon, white supremacists and others, disrupted the U.S. Congress’s confirmation of the Electoral College, claiming they were protesters. This led the collaborative editing and production team to slow down our zine distribution process. Since the summer of 2020, our work had already been deeply informed by our experiences related to the pandemic, police violence, and other factors. Amidst the violence in Washington, D.C. we found ourselves reflecting anew on how the terms uprising and protest get used and can circulate. One of the main ideas of this zine is that there is no firm definition of uprising, and yet, we can also say that what happened at the Capitol on January 6 was not the actions of a protest led by the dispossessed, the othered, and the marginalized.
