This page should not be speedily deleted because it is an actual topic. The San Francisco Jewish Museum had an exhibit about it called Black Sabbath: The Secret Musical History of Black–Jewish Relations, which ran for seven months during 2010 and 2011. It was all about the Jewish influence in Black music of the US. The 2016 book Jews and Jazz: Improvising Ethnicity includes discussion of the topic. The 1999 Harvard book A Right to Sing the Blues: African Americans, Jews, and American Popular Song talks about this topic. The 2010 book Troubling the Waters: Black-Jewish Relations in the American Century covers it. --Binksternet (talk) 02:14, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This page should not be speedily deleted because I see no reason to deny that jewish people had an influence in rhythm and blues, and as far as I can tell nowhere in this article do they deny that African-American people were the primary creators--Grahammydoodle (talk) 04:17, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
