“Before WW1 Los Angeles’s black population was considerably more educated and affluent than other areas.” It still is!!! It may have been conservative in the early days, but LA was one of the few places in the country where blacks could find a hotel or restaurant that would take them in. Today, we are pretty well integrated in the middle and upper classes. Unfortunately, there is still a sizeable portion of the black population left out in the cold which has lead to high crime in some areas. It’s absurd to blame democrats. For what? For not doing more to help people? I agree!
If I said '28 that would be terrible! I had about 3,000 words for 25 minutes. Sometimes when I am the only one reading for these radio programs things get a bit garbled. The day this was recorded I also did two additional hours for two separate stations. It gets crazy.
@@karlgerber7652 check out 25:26. Sorry I was nit picking because you still did a tremendously informative job and you had facts in your show I didn’t know about. I always want to learn new things about this music and this informative show let me do that. I had my own early jazz radio show on KCSN for 7 years from 1980 to 1986. It was called Jazz Show Mouldy Figge and it was on every Saturday morning from 10am to noon. One irate listener called me one time to tell me I gave the incorrect date of the publication of Morton’s Jelly Roll Blues. He said it was 1916 and not 1915 like I said on my show. I just thanked him for the information as I didn’t want to argue with a listener.
@@karlgerber7652 I had index cards with me at my radio show with names of songs, bands and dates. All the dialog on my show was not written down but ad libbed on the spot. But I was playing a lot of music and not doing a spoken word history show like you.

10:39 Dubois is pronounced Doo-boyz in the case of W.E.B. Dubois. Creole is pronounced "cree-ol." Ory is pronounced "oree." There is a different between marginalized and marginal. The word "marginalized" necessarily drops all sorts of relevant context and is not historically informative. It is a politically-charged short-cut term. As is the word "weird" in the context in which you use it. Your historical biases are unprofessional and probably have a lot to do with your chosen (distinctly un-American) legal occupation.
Thanks for this excellent informative program and all the research you did putting it together.
This exactly what I was looking for!
The picture of Morton’s tombstone at 11:36 looks like one that I took. Where did you get that picture?
I gotta speed this up.

The stock market crashed in 1929 and not 1928 as you mentioned.
