So, as we reported on Monday, the New York Times published a poorly thought-out feature piece about blacks in indie culture. Needless to say, it caused quite an uproar. Douglas Martin (pictured here), one of the individuals interviewed for the article (who also weighed in on the comments section of our original story,) has written a response to the article on his website. Basically, he lists all the problems he had with the story and how it seems to have been radically changed from its original intent after going through nine editors. Martin also goes on to clarify his position on being a black indie rock musician and fan, since the article, as he says, made his experience "seem like the plot of an after-school special." It's an interesting read, and you can find it here.
