Striking Chords & Defending Digital Human Rights

On this episode of The Rhythm of Rebellion, I speak with Evan Greer, a powerhouse trans and queer activist, writer and musician based in Boston. Evan’s journey is a dynamic interplay of musical wit, grassroots activism, and a fervent dedication to justice. She has gracefully evolved her sound from riot-folk roots to a more layered indie pop aesthetic with an anarcho-punk soul. Her recent album, “Spotify is Surveillance,” has garnered praise from NPR, Rolling Stone, and Pitchfork. As a touring musician and speaker, Evan has shared stages with a diverse array of artists, including Pete Seeger, Eve 6, and Tom Morello. Beyond her musical prowess, Evan serves as the director of Fight for the Future, a digital rights nonprofit, where her eloquence on issues of free speech, technology, and human rights resonate far and wide.
