A very happy birthday today, 27 September, for Dr Anita Raghunath!
She was active in Punk Scholars Network UK. She co-founded Punk Scholars Network the Netherlands and Punk Studies in the Netherlands.
Without Anita Raghunath, our events would not have gone as well. Recently, we talked about ideas for our series of interviews with early Dutch punk women
Dear Anita, all the best for you and your family!
To many more years for you, and for all of us together!
