Andra Day - Strange Fruit [Official Music Video] 

To hear more stories on America’s legacy of racial injustice, visit lynchinginameri..., a project from the Equal Justice Initiative with support from Google.
Andra Day covers the iconic song "Strange Fruit.” Originally performed by Billie Holiday in 1939, the song protests lynching, a form of racial terror which took more than 4,000 African American lives and reinforced white supremacy. Most states have no memorials commemorating lynching sites, some of which are featured in this video.
Andra, in partnership with the Equal Justice Initiative, sheds light on this difficult history and the ways that racial injustice continues. In order to move forward, we must confront our past.
