Peters, Gretchen. “Do Students See Themselves in the Music Curriculum? A Project to Encourage Inclusion.” Music Educators Journal, vol. 102, no. 4, 2016, pp. 22–29. JSTOR, doi:10.1177/0027432116644330.

Peters argues that as society works towards inclusivity, it would behoove music studies within academia to reflect on their programs and curriculum as they “are often steeped in past traditions that [are] exclusionary as to gender and race, they can unintentionally cultivate a culture that continues to marginalize students [and] faculty” (22).
