Presentation transcript:

By Billie Holliday

Watch the following video closely, listening attentively to the lyrics. Do your best to answer the following questions: 1. What is this song about? 2. What period of American History is it referring to? Strange Fruit, by Billie Holliday

Read quietly through the lyrics of the song. Once you have read them, see if you can add more to your answers to the two questions: 1. What is the song about? 2. What period of American History is it referring to? Strange Fruit

Please write a one to two paragraph response to the song and the video that you just watched. If you have a hard time thinking of what to write, use the following questions to prompt your thoughts. (These are just to get you thinking…you DO NOT have to answer each question.) What do you think? What does it make you feel? Does it make you angry, sad? Are you confused by anything? Were you surprised by anything? Disgusted? Do you think people still feel this way towards black people nowadays? Why or why not? Why do you suppose blacks were so hated and feared?
