Jazz and Gender Justice

Jazz and Gender Justice A conversation with Terri Lyne Carrington, Camila Cortina, Anthony Kelley, and Brenda Sisane As we cross into the second century of the music's history, jazz has undoubtedly become a globally inclusive music blending with countless traditions, vernacular and folkloric cultures and scenes across the world. However, how women, queer and gender non-conforming people are located in jazz complicates the often male-centered claim to the music's democratic potential. This panel brings together leading journalists, artists and scholars to discuss and imagine what jazz without patriarchy means in our time and for the future. Date: Thursday, April 10, 11am-1pm EST Location: NorthStar Church of the Arts 220 W. Geer St., Durham, NC Free lunch for participants RSVP: duke.is/jazz Co-sponsors: Mary Lou Williams Center for Black Culture, Duke Department of Gender, Sexuality and Feminist Studies, NorthStar Church of the Arts.
