We appreciated the opportunity
to join South by Southwest in 2024.
With U.S. Army Futures Command

seek opportunities to meet

industry partnerships because
tomorrow is worth protecting. , Lt. Col. Jamie Dobson, U.S. Army Futures Command Spokesperson, via Fox News Digital.

There are many ways SXSW is harmful
to working musicians, but I am pulling
out specifically because of the fact

to be complicit in this and withdrawl
