Yesterday was another wonderful musical performance here in Massachusetts, this time the jazz violinist Regina Carter. The show was held at Artist’s for Humanity in South Boston. Carter and her 5-piece band held the audience’s rapt attention with their music, but also their poetic interludes about housing, gentrification, and displacement of Black/Brown communities from American cities.
Carter, age 55, was born in Detroit where she studied violin via the Suzuki method (I used the same technique growing up). She remains connected to Michigan, and her message, about community, race, and preserving neighborhoods, was powerful.
