About this listen

In this special encore episode, host Rebecca Carroll looks back on the series, reflecting on the many lessons Billie Holiday left behind during the course of her extraordinary life. Billie’s impact is deep and far-reaching. And so, in celebration of all that she was, Rebecca is also joined by a few friends of the podcast to reflect on the singer’s influence on their own lives: contemporary harpist Brandee Younger, supermodel Naomi Campbell, award-winning author Terry McMillan, and The United States vs. Billie Holiday director Lee Daniels.

Excellent podcast.
This is a must
for every woman of color. I listened to Billie singing but never realized or imagined what she endured. I did not see the movie but I am going to rent it now.

I had no idea what had really happened to Billie holiday. I have taught her poetry for over 40 years in the English classroom. I am so glad I have finally heard the truth. I want everybody to hear this podcast. My God! We are so barbaric and we think we’re advance because we have space travel. Also I loved the first voices.
