Good morning ladies & gentlemen of the Jury; before I show you the number of newspaper lies being told about me from 1922 to 1937, I'd like to tell you about the word Jazz. Jazz was an obscure type of music until the prohibition of the 1920s associated Black patrons of speakeasies with I, the Jazz!
Strangely, this is a story about Jazz weed, but not one mentioning of Black musicians, only Mexicans. I would logically surmise that the music form known as Jazz today, adopted my name of "Jazz" during prohibition & thus it was called the "Devil's Music" because of my alleged deviltry in newspapers.
Maybe that connection is why Harry Jacob Anslinger, would in later years be reported as disliking Jazz and Jazz musicians. In addition, pay close attention to how those Newspaper stories keep emphasizing that I should be eliminated ... not planted or even allowed to grow wild.
