What Inspires Me:
I have always been fascinated with the music and counterculture in America during the 1960s and 70s. Everything from the fashion to the social movements of that time has caught my attention. When I started studying music and learned that I could focus on that era, I knew I had found my niche. I am now extremely interested in the protest movements associated with the Civil Rights era and the Vietnam War, and in the music that helped protestors achieve pilipili漫画 in their battles against the American government.
