Excellent article. I’d be interested in reading your views on black versus white issues in Soviet music. For example, a famous kid’s song “Chunga Changa”. It is still beloved by many Former Soviet Parents. To me it is deeply racial and portraits Africans as simpletons who enjoy eating bananas and doing nothing. This came up in conversation with Russian parents several times, and majority of them confused and don’t get it!
