Wow, this is bad.
There is so little about the personal and institutional discrimination that black jazz musicians face in this article. "Diversity in Jazz"? Really? Mentions white Jazz musicians in the 1920s having a bigger audience as if there was no cause to it. As far as I can tell, there is no mention of racism in this article. It also unfairly talks about how Duke and Louis fell out of favour by the early 60s in favour of solo pop stars without mentioning that all of the examples of solo pop stars are white people.
