"Known drug users". Did you know that Charlie Parker's drug use started after a physical injury? He was perscribed pain meds. Like 21st century, many get addicted to pain meds prescribed by dr's. I would appreciate embelishment in your next story on how drugs were easy to get and common. Also, how the local governments played a roll by not cleaning up the drug problem, especially, in uptown Jazz Harlem and 52nd St., where many caucasians used the vise as entertainment and along with music, most likely supplied, at the same club to musicians. Blacks and whites associating was forbidden and so were the drugs. Where blacks the drug too, figuratively speaking?
Great read Jessica. Thank you
