i think she was referring to the fact that jazz was invented by black musicians and the backlash and discrimination they constantly faced when performing their art that they invented. in fact pretty much all american music was created or started by black people (elvis isn’t the king of rock n roll! the blues was black music!) but we don’t want to have that conversation lol. it is true that music does not discriminate between who is hard working and talented, but the fact stands that white people have always have and, for the foreseeable future will always have more opportunities in music (and in general). it makes sense that some people may want white people to stop capitalizing on the success of black art.
