| Opplysninger | Defining jazz hatred ; What do you mean you hate jazz? Taste, race and the orchestration of sensibilities ; Jazz is stupid: hating jazz through satire and ridicule ; The musicians suck: contempt and disgust in the historical reception of jazz ; The ethics of hating jazz. - "Andrew S. Berish's Hating jazz listens to the voices that have denounced, disparaged, and mocked the music. By focusing on the rejection of jazz, Berish says, we see more holistically its complicated place in American cultural life. Jazz is a display of Black creativity and genius, an art form deeply embedded in African American life. An individual's taste in music may seem personal, but musical preferences and trends are social phenomena. Criticism of jazz, whether serious or humorous, has become inextricable from the ways we understand race in America. Both enlightening and original, Hating jazz shows that our response to music is a social act, unique to our historical moment and cultural context - we react to music in certain ways because of who we are, where we are, and when we are." -Omslagets bakside.
