Na voz de Billie Holiday em 1939, essa icônica canção e poema de três estrofes de Abel Merpool, um professor judeu americano e compositor filiado ao partido comunista,  ganhou destaque como uma das maiores bofetadas contra o racismo, a canção modelo que praticamente inspirou boa parte das canções de protesto americanas que vieram depois. A primeira versão foi na voz da também cantora de jazz Laura Duncan, mas foi Holiday que de fato a fez virar uma canção símbolo da luta antirracista. A canção se tornou tão significativa que mereceu uma bela biografia do jornalista David Margolick, “Strange Fruit: Billie Holiday e a biografia de uma canção”. Os versos descrevem através da dura e bela metáfora “fruto estranho” as práticas de linchamento e assassinato de corpos negros que eram pendurados em árvores. Leonard Feather, crítico importante de jazz, considera a primeira canção de protesto relevante na história da música, "o primeiro clamor não emudecido contra o racismo”. Margolick, autor do livro, cita como a música vivia em uma espécie de “quarentena artística”. Não era seguro cantá-la e mesmo nos lugares onde conseguiam executá-la ela podia ser recebida negativamente . Ele fala do contraste entre uma cantora negra que cantava com profundo sentimento uma canção trágica de protesto sobre linchamentos e uma plateia branca que saía para se divertir, dar umas risadas, encher a cara e, no fim, ficava em choque.

The first woman to circumnavigate the world did so dressed as a man. In 1766, 26-year-old Jeanne Baret joined a French expedition hoping to conceal her identity for three years. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of her historic journey around the globe. We'll also hear Mark Twain's shark story and puzzle over a foiled con artist. Intro: In 1856 Samuel Hoshour wrote an imaginary correspondence full of polysyllabic words. In 1974 Dennis Upper published a study of his intractable writer's block.

Bob is joined by David Margolick, author of “THE PROMISE AND THE DREAM: The Untold Story of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Robert F. Kennedy,” who delves into the complicated relationship between the celebrated civil rights leaders.

David Margolick, author of the book “Elizabeth and Hazel,” traces the lives of two women featured in an iconic 1957 photograph, taken during the desegregation of Little Rock Central High School. He tells Bob the story of their unlikely friendship.

Today on The Neil Haley Show, The Total Tutor Neil Haley and Sara Bella will interview Author and Writer David Margolick. We will discuss his latest Washington Post article. In The Washington Post, David Margolick writes about the flight that carried Robert Kennedy's body from Los Angeles to New York City 50 years ago of which little information has ever been preserved. That day America's three most famous widows – Ethel Kennedy, Jacqueline Kennedy and Coretta Scott King – shared a flight over their grieving, wounded, troubled country. What was witnessed that day appears to be the only time throughout the aftermath of Kennedy's death when the three women actually talked to one another. What they said can only be surmised: none of them wrote about it afterward. Nor did any photographer preserve the moment; there were none aboard the plane. Furthermore only three reporters were aboard that day, and they had been invited as friends, not chroniclers. Only one reporter abroad that flight, Sander Vanocur of NBC News, described what he had seen. David Margolick is a longtime contributing editor at Vanity Fair, where he writes about culture, the media, and politics. He served as national legal affairs editor at The New York Times, where he wrote the weekly At the Bar column for seven years. He is the author most recently of Strange Fruit: The Biography of a Song. This is his fourth book. He lives in New York City.

In 1938 on the eve of World War II, a boxing match played out powerfully against world events, as two men battled in the ring for an audience of millions. The fight, says Sara Fishko’s guest, writer David Margolick, represented the pride of a race and the principles of a nation - in a deeply divided America.
