(1) Anna Kongaard fra .@politiken citerer i en artikel et interview som jeg var med i på #tv2østjylland i mandags hvor jeg er, ifølge avisen, “en smule mere skeptisk” over kønskvoter på .@UNM_DK festivalen.
Ved hjælp af kønskvoter vil Ung Nordisk Musik-festival skabe mere mangfoldighed på scenen. Beslutningen vækker både glæde og skepsis blandt kunstnerne. https://t.co/uXy6xoFKvu
