“There's no damn business like show business - you have to smile to keep from throwing up.” -Billie Holiday.. watch “Tallulah Bankhead” video next: th-cam.com/video/oTWUGoLBrAk/w-d-xo.html
I feel your anger. I watched "The United States vs. Billie Holiday". The government killed her. I hope Harry Anslinger is burning in hell with J Edgar Hoover. Billie deserved so much better and her rendition of "Strange Fruit" is astounding.
At this point in time,some have no idea how dangerous the climate was then, that's why researching history is a good idea,American black people lived under horrible oppression,and violence....
@@wendylee7242 Were you an adult back then? How do you know how dangerous the climate was for black folks? Be careful not to confuse the propaganda from the entertainment industry with reality back in the day.
Receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and you will not let yourself be set up, because the Holy Spirit will lead you and identify your enemies. Romans 10:9-13, John 3:3
This government......... They did the same thing with hip hop Notice how it changed gradually from conscious rap and dance rap to lyrics about destroying each other
I grew up listening to her music my dad was a fan. So had to read the biography. I do have to agree she truly taught me as a young girl about racism and have to thank her and my parents for teaching me all deserve to be treated equally.
They sure did. They made her life even harder and when she was in the hospital they withheld care at the end. They were wrong then and they are wrong now.
@@VinceReese-x9o Who is going to get what? If you mean white people, then it has been a long time coming. Stop wasting time, waiting for justice. It is not happening.
I have always believed this. They warned her not to sing that song about Black men hanging from trees but she sung it anyway. I think they realized then that she would use her platform to stir up her followers and that scared them. She was not someone they could control.
She's a martyr as far as I'm concerned.Her ONLY crime was being born into this world with a heart way to big for it. Looks like Catholic church has had their hands in a hell of a lot from the very beginning. Pain and destruction for all.This generation doesn't have a clue about this woman.It's such a sorrowful thing but I think she still managed to shine and to me she's still shining! Shine on Billie!!
It's so horrible what she went through 😠💔 What's even more horrible are the heartless bastards that were willing to come into her life to help destroy her. Some people are demons in human form.
My mother and grandmother taught me that some people got the devil working on and there are people who went through worse things than Billie Holiday. And lived in didn't take drugs
@@borngreat-4-life930 This kind of govt targeting follows you outside the country as well. Paul Robeson found that out & I'm sure other creatives or dissidents/activists who left the US had the same thing happen.

Today they operate under the bogus excuse of "fighting terrorism" but it's the same ol' repression game. And WE are more likely to be targeted than anyone. Facts.
I have come to believe by George, Jehovah my Father is over gangstalking. Satan runs the world until I ran to Jesus Christ. I cried out "they want me for sex or science,please help me" found my way to the Spirit of Truth. I can now walk around without the fear of attacks. John 16:13 is real! The gangstalkers are scared of Jesus Christ's Holy Words.
She should have done a Josephine Baker and left the US and move to Europe. I think she would have been happy and maybe lived a long life. France loved, loved Josephine Baker!
@@AlkebulanMan-rw8cp Still better than the USA. Also, dating outside your race was fine unlike the USA where it was criminalised. Also, she was considered a hero during WWII because of here transporting important document's.
Just goes to show how long law enforcement has been harassing black musicians and artists from the Jazz Blues era's to Hip Hop paid for with tax payer money
Yep. Hollyweird did that with Nick Arnstein, in the movie “Funny Girl” about Fanny Bryce, portrayed (iconically) by Barbra Streisand on (I think) broadway and in the film. He was Fanny Bryce no-good azz huzzban, but hollyweird “cleaned” him up for the “Funny Girl,” film. I have loved that movie for years, but Nick Arnstein was a POS , but got a hollyweird “makeover,” like Louis McKay did in “Lady Sings the Blues.” 🙄 Men always looks after the men. Hollyweird is run by men. Men are on “bros before h03z” on every occasion…
Billie had severe trauma, which was only compounded by all of these events. Unfortunately, this probably made her vulnerable to drug use. It's so good that her music remains with us! RIP... 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Musicians as a whole are prone to drug use. If it doesn’t run in the family like Whitney Houston, drugs can be introduced by a band mate or manager because the show must go on.
Billie had a horrifyingly abusive childhood-every form of abuse you can think of. Billie was put on the “path” that was her life (drugs, alcohol, horrible men) from childhood. She was literally “lined up” for it! 😢
Her & Phyllis Hyman remind Me of each other. They've similar stories. The pressures of Hollywood to please everybody stinks!! They're great women & lots of evil spirits hated them for that!
Phyllis or Whitney were not constantly harassed by the federal government most of the career. I do believe Whitney was murdered because she no longer was valuable in the music industry. However, Holiday' life was full of violence, racism and harassment by the federal government.
I saw Phyllis in philly 22nd and chestnut She wasn't very nice Mentioned Billie to her And she got this far away look in her eyes Phyllis lived 2400 chestnut street in Philly l lived 1925 chestnut
Yep her mother turned her out first.They were both arrested 140 street Harlem In a raid for prostitute Billie was sent to jail 14 years old. She never got out of the pimp ho life That's why she those type of men. And call them daddy
Unfortunately, this is all too real in Hollywood today! They simply use those people and discard them as they see fit with not an ounce of compassion for them. Look at Britney Spears
They definitely took her out over strange fruit it made no sense that she was clean at the time and it’s funny they say she was found dead with drugs I always knew it was a lie
🌺🌺🌺love her🌺🌺🌺My late mom told me one of her stories that many years when she lived with her aunt and her home was where some of the black singers would come to stay when they had a gig in Philly...my mom would iron their clothes... She met Billy Holiday and she told she also meet Louis Armstrong too, who she had to iron all his handkerchiefs...I loved my mom's stories of her youth...I miss her so much.
Cant help thinking if she left and went to Paris or Russia at the time her life maybe would have been better. Paul Robeson many Jazz singer at the time I watched a documentary on Russian black people who defended from USA they never returned back to the US
That is awful. They were on a mission to destroy her,with each person around her. I actually think this tactic is still used on celebs today. People planted into their lives to either extract information or to ruin them. It must be very difficult to trust as a star. 😢
The sadest part for me as a man is what her mother did. As a survivor of childhood neglect myself I can say our parents are our first reflections of ourselves and the world at large. It's sad that Billy never realized her own strength to endure without all the agents of evil placed in her life. RIP sweet Lady 💔
My grandfather was friends with Louis McKay he and my grandmother used have them come over for dinner my grandmother did not like him not one bit my grandfather said McKay was a leech and a user

(UMMMM....) "Southern Trees Bear Strange Fruit.... Blood On The Leaves, Blood At The Root.... For The Sun To Rot, For The Tree To Drop.... Here's A Strange & Bitter Crop...." -Billie Holiday 🙏💮 Thanks For Sharing, Karine....👍✌️
@akrenwinkle Yes, True....But, She Sung Those Lyrics and it's the Significance of Those Lyrics as far as What They Represented and Stood For that was one of the Primary Focal Points of This Video, which is Why They're Quoted Here! 👍✌️
just began this video...wow! WHO sends a 9 year old to a reform school?! and then again when she is RAPED!! horrific! This poor little girl....HEARTBREAKING!
Billie and Etta two of my favorite ladies to listen too. So many of these superb talents have been victimized by the industry and sadly by those close to them ✝️💜
That's how the entertainment industry is, you're right. If you don't toe the line, they set you up to destroy you. Either by drugging you, then claiming you were an addict, they can take them out by "accidents", etc. CORRECT.
Ooooh, thank you Karine for this-- Billie Holiday has been my SHE-RO every since my mom took me to see the movie, 'Lady Sings Blues' as an early teen & now 64 yrs. old. Thank you for bringing her challenging life with a tragic ending to the light!! 🌟🌟
Karine, I second you on praying when meeting new people because its true. It never know the people's true intention. Great video love, hope you're doing well 💗💗💗
Yes the devils & his agents are very real all that your saying is true!! Put the full armor of God on every day& your love ones & psalm 91!!🙏💝thank you soo much!!💐💞
Such a BEAUTIFUL and talented woman with a troubled soul. The United States vs. Billie Holiday really hurt my soul. Andra Day nailed it though. Elenora Fagan DESERVED better. Yes she had her flaws. But, she was screwed over in a lot of ways. Death will NEVER kill her influence. 💐😔🙏🏾❤️🕊️
Wonderful description of her life and the battles she faced. May she rest in peace. Thank you for your words of wisdom of how people are sent into your life as agents of destruction. That holds so true.
Tomorrow starts Aries ♈️ season and this is a treat for me I love Billie another fellow Aries like me she was beautiful! What a heartbreaking 💔 story 🌹🌸💐🌺🌷🌻🥀🌼🪷🪻
That ending is what I feel! When we don't know what is true, nothing is true. So what about victims of atrocities that will go disbelieved? People already don't look into things that are well established lies and just believe the headlines.
Let's say she was ONE of the best jazz singers of all time. We had many many Black singers who never made the big time, but they had voices that would blow your mind! Our entertainers went thru a lot back during those days, and they are still going thru a lot today; not only the singers but these ball players are going thru a lot also!

🌸🌺💐🌸🌺💐🌷 Billie Holiday always let us know in the music, so much pain in her voice rest in Paradise, miss Holliday🙏🏾
I was listening to this REAL MUSIC when I was 5 years young! My Dad was a music man, and he turned me on jazz music at an early age. Today, I still listen to jazz at the ripe young age of 74!!!
That’s wonderful, my dad was musician and we listen to jazz rock R&B, gospel, and I agree with you definitely real music😃
@@crystalhenton2277 Yepper! Music has no color, no age, and no limits when it has a meaning to it! ☀
There’s no telling what happened to her while attending that Catholic reform school poor lady day💐💐💐
I was molested in a Catholic Children's Home? Not far from Philly and there were kids there from Philly???? I'm 60 now and I closed when I was 10?
(UMMMM....)
"Southern Trees Bear
Strange Fruit....
Blood On The Leaves,
Blood At The Root....

Thanks For Sharing, Karine....👍✌️
She did not write these lyrics.
@akrenwinkle Yes, True....But, She Sung Those Lyrics and it's the Significance of Those Lyrics as far as What They Represented and Stood For that was one of the Primary Focal Points of This Video, which is Why They're Quoted Here! 👍✌️
@@akrenwinkle And I wonder did they go after the jewish songwriter with as much vitriol as they did Bille? I'm sure we can guess the answer to that.
@@DevonahBlackwellT.I. Nobody cared about him, as far as I know. It is probable that audiences, simple then as they are now, thought Billie wrote it.

This story is so sad - and so relevant even today. So many of our black leaders destroyed by the agencies..
just began this video...wow! WHO sends a 9 year old to a reform school?! and then again when she is RAPED!! horrific! This poor little girl....HEARTBREAKING!
You know folks treat you like crap when you are a live but when you pass a way that treat you like royalty
He was worse than Judas. At least Judas had remorse. Evil, Evil pure EVIL!!! Tragic😪😪
Well, judas took his own life instead of trusting in Christ. Not good.
Same thing that's happening to Ye Wendy Williams.Britney Spears.
Billie's version of "I'll Be Seeing You" always makes me cry. Her voice is so beautiful and haunting. 💜
Billie and Etta two of my favorite ladies to listen too. So many of these superb talents have been victimized by the industry and sadly by those close to them ✝️💜
How in the heck do you punish a child for a grown manraping a child smh
She was a friend of my grandmother's and I loved hearing the stories.
Can you share any? Video story pls!
How INCREDIBLE 🔥
The earth is ghetto...this is ghetto 😂😂 couldn't agree with you more, I pray to God everyday ❤
That's how the entertainment industry is, you're right. If you don't toe the line, they set you up to destroy you. Either by drugging you, then claiming you were an addict, they can take them out by "accidents", etc. CORRECT.
Warrior before her time🙏🏽✨
Rare beauty
When you throw the truth in someone's face, especially the government, you're going to pay. I know. Believe me. I know.
Girlfriend you ain't never lied negative entities are real 😵💫😈
As I listen I know ill-fated educators are responsible, regurgitating poison instilled in them in others😢 I abhor them all for that!
Rare emojis where did you get it😊
Trueee and I love your emojis!
No weapons form against us shall prosper. If God is for us who could be against us.
Amen
This woman had such a timeless voice. Such a life of turmoil, pain and sadness. May she rest in peace with God. 💐🌹💐💖🙏🏽
The more things change the more they remain the same.
She was treated so wrong by men in general. It’s sad her husband was against her
I am so glad this vid put out the truth about McK and Anzlinger! 😐
Ooooh, thank you Karine for this--
Billie Holiday has been my SHE-RO every since my mom took me to see the movie,
'Lady Sings Blues'
as an early teen & now 64 yrs. old.
Thank you for bringing her challenging life with a tragic ending to the light!! 🌟🌟

Lady sings the Blues is one of my favorite movies...Strange fruit one of my favorite songs. Hollywood abuses and exploits the broken. Sad story indeed
After subscribing to you and seeing some of these docs aaannnnd I'm convinced the devil is the owner of Hollywood.
God bless you Ms. Holiday 🎉🎉🤎🙏🏿🙏🏿
Karine, I second you on praying when meeting new people because its true. It never know the people's true intention. Great video love, hope you're doing well 💗💗💗
Amen. I agree.🙏🏻
This video contains so much relatable and relevant truth. Well presented.❤
This is so incredibly sad, her life was doomed from the very beginning. She certainly deserved better than she received.🌹🌻🌼🌷
They really did Lady Day Dirty such a shame😢❤
❤❤❤ Loved her& her unique voice.
Yes the devils & his agents are very real all that your saying is true!! Put the full armor of God on every day& your love ones & psalm 91!!🙏💝thank you soo much!!💐💞
Such a BEAUTIFUL and talented woman with a troubled soul. The United States vs. Billie Holiday really hurt my soul. Andra Day nailed it though. Elenora Fagan DESERVED better. Yes she had her flaws. But, she was screwed over in a lot of ways. Death will NEVER kill her influence. 💐😔🙏🏾❤️🕊️
Indeed ❤❤❤😢😢
Eleanora*
Wonderful description of her life and the battles she faced. May she rest in peace. Thank you for your words of wisdom of how people are sent into your life as agents of destruction. That holds so true.
I hate how they did her!!
"God bless the child that's got its own! That's got Its own!!!!!"💯💯💯
BEAUTIFUL KARINE. AND QUEEN BILLIE. Rest in paradise queen ❤
❤❤❤
I'll never understand why the world feels the need to destroy beauty! Thank you for sharing Lady Day's story and with such passion. 🏵🌷💐🌷🏵
th world doesn’t sh had an addiction
Tomorrow starts Aries ♈️ season and this is a treat for me I love Billie another fellow Aries like me she was beautiful! What a heartbreaking 💔 story 🌹🌸💐🌺🌷🌻🥀🌼🪷🪻
Dang the luicfier himself was assigned to this resilient woman rest easy Mrs Billie
What a beautiful & graceful Woman.❤
That ending is what I feel! When we don't know what is true, nothing is true. So what about victims of atrocities that will go disbelieved? People already don't look into things that are well established lies and just believe the headlines.
Bill Holiday
Was the best Jazz singing of all time.
Let's say she was ONE of the best jazz singers of all time. We had many many Black singers who never made the big time, but they had voices that would blow your mind! Our entertainers went thru a lot back during those days, and they are still going thru a lot today; not only the singers but these ball players are going thru a lot also!

THEIR ALL GREAT
I HATE WHEN PEOPLE TRY TO MAKE EVERYTHING A COMPETITION WITH COLORED PEOPLE
YOU DONT SEE THE NON COLORED PEOPLE DOING IT
THEY HANDLE THEIR BUSINESS BEHIND CLOSE DOORS AND SHOW UNITY
Sad for her with a man who didn't love her. Plus, how does a lawman have authority over the doctor? RIP Billie Holiday
Doctors don’t have any power. Even today, they are run by insurance companies and administrators.
Same thought I had but once you study Code Noir…it all makes sense, if that makes sense.
"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." Ephesians 6:12
Thank you for all of this info, Keep up the light from God!
