| Abstract
|
:
|
Musicians, scholars, and journalists write about jazz since 1965, the year that Curtis Mayfield composed the famous civil-rights anthem that gives this collection its title. The contributors emphasise how the political consciousness that infused jazz in the 1960s and early 1970s has informed jazz in the years since then.
