I highly recommend reading Ella Fitzgerald’s and Billie Holidays wiki articles, then go listen to their respective recordings. Two women, who were black, in a time of bigotry and sexism, poured their heart and soul on the world not giving a shit what anyone thought, and the world loved it!

This story is always amazing to me. Imagine.... refusing to allow ELLA FITZGERALD to play in your little mediocre bar.
