Without question 2019-2020 has been a year to remember. We began the year triumphantly hosting the annual meeting of the Society for Ethnomusicology for a record fifth time, only to experience a two-day power outage. As nearly 1000 ethnomusicologists were left scrambling for food, hot water, and Wi-Fi, I remember thinking to myself, “Well this is our one big crisis for the year. It will be smooth sailing from here on out.” If only that were true.
