I cannot help you, as I was was raise firmly believing that music had nothing to do with skin color. My grandfather and his brothers had a "barbershop" quartet and loved to sing the old Spirituals, even in the days when people from on them singing "colored folks music." Music belongs to all people, regardless of skin color, height or ethnicity.

I could give you plenty of arguments to the contrary of what you want ... but I guess that wouldn't be helpful!
