  • Resumen

  • This episode transports us back to 1984, a pivotal year in the world of jazz and African American culture. Dorthaan Kirk, a renowned figure in jazz circles, takes us on a journey to a significant moment captured in a photograph at the home of Amiri and Amina Baraka. This particular evening holds significance because it was when Abbey Lincoln, the legendary jazz vocalist, performed at the Peppermint Lounge in New Jersey. Adding to the allure of the event, Nina Simone, another iconic figure in the world of jazz, was in attendance.
