I like the Mosley paraphrase. To wit: the latest Guitar World has Billy Gibbons and Dan Auerbach on the cover. During the interview the two men virtually only mention black guitarists/musicians as influences and people they look up to. But the ironic thing is that NONE of the black people they mention , living or dead, would likely get or got the chance to be on the cover of Guitar World and resulting fame/fortune that goes along with that. So I have no problem with a festival or other media that is dedicated to highlighting black musicians and black culture.
