“Jazz and Justice: Racism and the Political Economy of the Music” with Gerald Horne

Coming From Left Field (Audio)

One of our favorite guests, Dr. Gerald Horne, joins us today to discuss his book, “Jazz and Justice: Racism and the Political Economy of the Music.” A remarkable scholar discusses the history of jazz, “the story of a beautiful lotus, growing from the filth of the crassest form of human immiseration.”
