Chandler Councilman Create Black & Brown Elective Officials Coalition to Support International Jazz Day AZ
Chandler AZ Council Member OD Harris brings Black and Brown elected officials together to unite the State around Jazz Appreciation Month and International Jazz Day.
I am excited that Black Elected Officials are forming this alliance supporting International Jazz Day AZ this year! This fantastic Scottsdale Jazz Festival event brings music and appreciation from around the world to Arizona, featuring some of the most talented jazz musicians from around the globe. Jazz is a beautiful and meaningful form of expression, both for its cultural roots and modern influence in other genres. This day, April 30th, is an incredible opportunity to experience some new sounds alongside old classics in an inclusive setting. I can’t wait to hear what fantastic music the Scottsdale Jazz Festival offers during this beautiful celebration! Council member Harris is on a mission to convene top Black and Brown city and state elected officials to use Jazz Appreciation Month and International Jazz Day to unite all elected officials, Democrats, and Republic around this cause. This effort is to support an American Art form called Jazz. In an exciting development, Black elected officials encourage their colleagues to support Jazz in its unique and lasting state. Jazz has long been part of African-American culture, offering joy and solace during difficult times. https://youtu.be/34XoXigCIOA
