Long categorized as an angry woman for expressing the experiences of marginalized people, Ani DiFranco has been writing music that illuminates the human experience for over 40 years. Throughout her career, her music has proven to have the ability to move from hyper-personal to outwardly political, all within the context of a single four minute track. \

WOUB’s Emily Votaw spoke with DiFranco about the mounting legitimacy of the female experience in 2018, what a young person born into this era is supposed to do with all the accompanying rage, and her upcoming performance at the Nelsonville Music Festival on Sunday, June 3.
