STEVEN MEAD ONLINE
with me
Due to some comments which may have been deleted, as well as the fact that so many people have been blocked by Steven Mead and have asked to read what he had to say, I have screenshot his correspondence with me here for you to see.
Mead first blocked me on November 10, 2023, rather than respond to my question about missing women I left on his page. I had also shared his post on my own Facebook, but it became invisible after he blocked me. After I was blocked, I made this Facebook post:
November 10, 2023
I shared this post of Steven Mead's about an hour ago and have since been blocked. You can still read my commentary I made with the share two posts ago. I also left a comment on his post (very offensive, you can see my screenshot of it here) which was deleted. These questions are so very offensive to some. Why? Royal Northern College of Music, do you have any answers?
Look how Mr. Mead responds to the most mild of criticisms from his female colleague. This is what we are up against. Blocking and tone policing for just saying, hey, there is a problem with this imagery.
Later that day, Mead made a post about the “hijacking” of his post by me, “the rather notorious” Katherine Needleman. It was edited many times, but I just share the first edit where he adds the descriptors “the rather notorious” about me for brevity:
I followed in August, 2024, with many posts about the Jeju 2024 International Brass and Percussion Competition. Mead sat on an all-male jury with an all-white-male repertoire list and I had some things to say about that:

The following correspondence on my Facebook page should be consumed with the idea that EuphoniumStore is Steven Mead. Mead had blocked me back in November, 2023, but came to my page to comment as EuphoniumStore. Eventually, he unblocked me.
