A Charles Mingus Special: Harmony Holiday in conversation with Carolyn “Keki” Mingus

Los Angeles, 22.04.24

Focus on Charles Mingus

Poet and writer Harmony Holiday speaks to Mingus' daughter Keki. Over the conversation they dispel some myths about the man, and unravel some uneasy realities about Mingus' career, including pressure and threats to his family from the mob in New York, and the tense navigation of an artist channeling creative power amongst audiences that may not respect it.
