A reading of “Little Girls,” Nikita Gale's essay on Tina Turner, Phil Spector, and the prospect of Black performers being heard without being controlled. This bonus episode follows Gale's conversation about Turner—and how the music industry determines whose voices are amplified and whose are silenced—in episode 6. The essay, published by Triple Canopy last year, is read by Kaneza Schaal.
Nikita Gale, an artist who lives in Los Angeles, has often engaged with Turner’s music and biography. In addition to co-hosting Medium Rotation, Gale has worked with Triple Canopy on a residency at the Hammer Museum and a related series of performances and publications. Gale’s recent and upcoming projects include exhibitions at the California African American Museum (Los Angeles) and LAX Art (Los Angeles), a commissioned performance at MoMA PS1 (New York City), and the record and book INFINITE RESOURCES (Aventures, 2021).
