We love Billie Holiday for so many reasons, don't we? Her voice was beautiful and piercing in a time that didn't have much patience for black women. She held herself so strong despite such a
tumultuous childhood. It wasn't until the end of her life that the true Tragedy of Billie Holiday began to emerge once again.
"Don't threaten me with love, baby. Let's just go walking in the rain."
