Abstract: The article "Experiments in Jazz" from the journal Nation explores the magazine's early coverage of jazz a century ago. The magazine, led by editor Oswald Garrison Villard, showed openness to jazz while maintaining a somewhat patronizing view of its significance. Some contributors avoided discussing race in their critiques, viewing jazz as a white phenomenon devoid of its African American roots. The article highlights the evolving perceptions of jazz within the cultural and political context of the time. [Extracted from the article]
