I'm taking a jazz group class that's run by the local jazz center and is open to people aged 15+. With about 15 of us there is good femme representation, including three transfemmes, but only white people (hopefully that changes in the next quarter). A few instructors are not white, though, so at least there's that. I also remember a lot of good jazz in the past few years being put out by non-white people and I'm going to see a non-white femme performer this weekend.
To be fair, I'm not "in the scene" by any means. I'm just a little baby musician in a small-mid size city with its own little thing going on completely separate from NYC and such and it's pretty nice here.
