Truth Be Told: (Re)Considering Innovation, Transformation, and Genius through the Lens of Jazz, Gender, and Justice

Truth Be Told: (Re)Considering Innovation, Transformation, and Genius through the Lens of Jazz, Gender, and Justice

Grammy Award winning artist Terri Lyne Carrington recently conceived and curated the New Standards Exhibit, celebrating the work of women composers and performers who have been either under-acknowledged or rendered invisible regarding the overall representation of the art form. This multidisciplinary exhibit imagines the sound of jazz through the lens of gender justice and is now open in Boston. Moderated by Danny Rivera, our panelists Terri Lyne Carrington, Somi, and Patricia Zarate Perez will lead a dynamic discussion considering the themes of gender, race, innovation, and transformation featured throughout the New Standards Exhibit.
