How Jazz Warmed Cold-War Hearts – an NPR Picture Show
NPR’s The Picture Show blog is currently featuring a story about how jazz was used in the Cold War. Not only is this a fascinating aspect of cultural history, but the story also gives some background on the State Department’s program of “ambassadorial jazz tours,” which led, eventually, to a program that sponsored former BG students, The Student Loan, on a tour of Pacific Islands & South East Asia earlier this year.
