What does this ad tell us about the conception
the record companies had about the blues in the pre-war period
or blue singers in the dominant "white" culture?
But what really is this culture?
A culture of corporate monopoly capitalism
with an un-"free" market economy and a
representative democracy
that is rigged in favor of the richer and more powerful?
Race and poverty are mere instruments to maintain
a certain hierarchy of power and control.
