Famous jazz musician, Dizzy Gillespie, was born and raised in Cheraw, SC. He moved

to Philadelphia at the age 18, to escape racism. Jazz and the Blues were two genres of

music that came out of the Black experience of the Jim Crow south. Musicians and

artists used their art forms to stand up against the injustices they had seen. This picture is

of a statue that now resides in Cheraw, SC. The person who was once discriminated

against is now celebrated. This is a credible source because the photographer took the

picture in the Dizzy Gillespie Park.
