New J4JA Video
J4JA! and AFM Local 802’s Jazz Advisory Committee have struck again! In collaboration with the gifted filmmaker Ron Grunhut, we’ve produced another short and powerful video.
The two minute piece features highlights of the Justice for Jazz Artists! rally & parade that took place in Washington Square Park at Judson Memorial Church on September 29th, and includes excerpts of speeches by the talented and unsung jazz pianist Bertha Hope-Booker, and by Local 802’s Recording VP, Bill Dennison.
The new video underscores the critical need for the clubs and the musicians to come together on the benefits issue; there is inspiring footage of J4JA! musicians and their supporters taking to the streets of NYC’s Greenwich Village to give collective musical voice to their true feelings — Justice for Jazz Artists! Now’s the time!
