Angela Davis shows us how the roots of that form in the blues must be viewed not only as a musical tradition but as a life-sustaining vehicle for an alternative black working-class collective memory and social consciousness profoundly at odds with mainstream American middle-class values. And she explains how the tradition of black women blues singers - represented by Gertrude "Ma" Rainey, Bessie Smith, and Billie Holiday - embodies not only an artistic triumph and aesthetic dominance over a hostile popular music industry but an unacknowledged proto-feminist consciousness within working-class black communities. Through a close and riveting analysis of these artists' performances, words, and lives, Davis uncovers the unmistakable assertion and uncompromising celebration of non-middle-class, non-heterosexual social, moral, and sexual values. *546 $aEngelsk tekst *599 $a117 kr. *60014$aHoliday, Billie$d1915-1959$_12080500 *60014$aRainey, Ma$d1886-1939$_22917200 *60014$aSmith, Bessie$d1894-1937$_12080700 *650 4$aAfro-amerikanere$_12594200 *650 4$aBlues$_10024500 *650 4$aFeminisme$_10530900 *650 4$aMusikkhistorie$_10460800 *650 4$aMusikkritikk$_12146900 *651 4$aUSA$_10088200 ^
