ASALH South Florida, Inc. presents Lunch & Learn with Dr. Joan Cartwright with Blues Women: First Civil Rights Workers on Saturday, April 11 @ 12:30 p.m. This lecture discusses how Black singers in the United States of America emerged from Spirituals and Blues to develop Jazz. Their free-spirited songs delivered messages of liberation, signaling to Africans in America that they could be free.” Besides being effective entertainers, Blues Women provided the primary means of healing of the human spirit. Mamie Smith, Gertrude ‘Ma’ Rainey, Ida Cox, Alberta Hunter, Bessie Smith, Josephine Baker, Ethel Waters, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Eartha Kitt, and Miriam Makeba were the first civil rights workers.
