About this listen
Strange Fruit was never just a song. It was Billie Holiday’s testimony, her fearless cry against the brutality of racism in America. With her voice, she forced the world to face the ugliness it wanted to hide. Billie turned pain into protest, melody into memory, and silence into resistance. She didn’t simply perform she bore witness. Today, I remember Billie Holiday not just as a singer, but as a truth-teller who gave us one of the most haunting and important statements in history. Strange Fruit is not entertainment. It is remembrance. It is evidence. It is resistance.
