Freedom Sounds: Civil Rights Call out to Jazz and Africa
Monson, Ingrid (Professor of African American Music, Professor of African American Music, Harvard University)
Freedom Sounds addresses the impact of the Civil Rights Movement and African Independence on jazz in the 1950s and 60s, and develops a new framework for thinking through the relationships among music, politics, aesthetics, and activism by carefully addressing the hot button racial and economic issues that generated contentious and soul-searching debate.
