Cannabis is quite the strange fruit with unusual connotations. The strange fruit aspect surrounding cannabis involves the stipulations, the fact that it is most commonly referred to as “marijuana” and the pick-and-choose aspects that are involved.

Billie Holiday: La voz inolvidable del jazz y símbolo de lucha

Billie Holiday, conocida mundialmente como "Lady Day", es una de las figuras más icónicas y conmovedoras en la historia del jazz. Nacida en 1915 en un entorno de pobreza y segregación, Holiday superó innumerables obstáculos para convertirse en una de las cantantes más influyentes del siglo XX. Su voz, cargada de matices y emociones, no solo transmitía belleza, sino también las profundas heridas y esperanzas de toda una generación.

A lo largo de su carrera, Billie Holiday colaboró con músicos legendarios y dejó un legado de grabaciones inolvidables, pero su valentía al interpretar "Strange Fruit" la consagró como una voz de protesta. Esta canción, un retrato devastador de los linchamientos raciales en el sur de Estados Unidos, resonó con fuerza en una época marcada por la desigualdad y el miedo. A pesar de las amenazas y la censura, Billie interpretaba la pieza con un coraje que electrizaba al público y daba voz a quienes no la tenían.

Sin embargo, detrás de su éxito, la vida de Holiday estuvo marcada por dolor personal, adicciones y persecuciones legales, impulsadas por figuras que buscaban silenciar su influencia. Luchó contra la adversidad hasta sus últimos días, falleciendo en 1959 a los 44 años. Pero su legado trasciende la música: es un recordatorio de la resiliencia y la capacidad de transformar el sufrimiento en arte.

Hoy, Billie Holiday sigue siendo una fuente de inspiración para artistas y defensores de los derechos humanos, una mujer que usó su voz para mucho más que cantar. Nos dejó una lección sobre el poder del arte como herramienta de cambio y resistencia.
