Nostalgia Trap - Episode 358: Lady Sings the Blues w/ Justin Rogers-Cooper (PREVIEW)
Manage episode 358872781 series 2394641
This week Justin and I read Billie Holiday’s incredible 1956 memoir Lady Sings the Blues, the story of one woman’s journey through a 20th century America saturated in the legacy of slavery and social violence. We discuss the book as a visceral lesson in the lived experience of racial capitalism, tracking how a voice haunted by history carries her through fame, money, drugs, exploitation, incarceration, and death. Why does Holiday’s life and voice still speak to us? And what does she have to say?
