Juan-Carlos Silva is an Austin Texas born and raised punk musician, concert promoter, and anti-racist agitator. He works hard to create radical spaces of music and resistance, and isn't afraid to bounce the Proud Boys from his side of the city. We talked with Juan Carlos after he wrapped up the third installment of his international DIY punk festival This Is Austin Not That Great, which he also performed at with his band Strutter. We spoke about the fest, the legacy of Texas punk, politics in Austin and Texas, electronic scooters, benefit concerts, confronting white nationalists, the police, and Ted Cruz.
