Punk is more than music: It’s a way of life; it’s a politic; it says something about the world we’ve lived in and the world we want to create. It’s also served as a haven for the misfits, the disillusioned and the marginalized. But the narratives that exist about punk, outside those in the know, treat it as though it was just about angst. Punk is treated as though it’s simply the byproduct of a particular kind of punk: the angry white boy. But the history of punk is a history that intersects across communities building on similar sounds and politics. In the final episode of Pop Americana’s first season, Sana Saeed explores the Latinx punks - from Lima to Los Angeles - and their role in making punk, well, punk.
