- Hi friends, happy Thursday!
Welcome to the Dark History Podcast. Do you know who Sister Rosetta Tharpe is? Would you believe me if I told you she’s responsible for Elvis Presley, Chuck Barry, Little Richard, The Beatles, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Jimmi Hendrix and basically Rock and Roll itself? Well today we’re gonna go into Rosetta’s story and learn about how she is the unknown mother of rock and roll.
I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more dark history.

Main things I've learned from Bailey's dark history lessons:
1. people were sexist and racist;
2. 99% of the time the person who should get all the credit - doesn't.
I feel like this is always the takeaway from history that’s taught properly 👍
And 3: the media always makes the situations 10000x Worse (not as much in this particular story, but MANY others)
Actually, people ARE sexist and racist...
No people are still racist and sexist
They sadly still are, even if they don't do mass lynchings as often
As a black woman who loves rock music, I really appreciate this episode. ESPECIALLY during Black History Month ❤️💚🖤 Love you Bailey!
Yes, major cosign!! Love my girl 🖤
Yesssss 🖤
🖤🖤🖤🖤
Thank you for helping me make this connection, Bailey has that much more respect from me.
She always gets it right! We love Bailey! 🤎🤎🤎
I learned about Sister Rosetta in a Rolling Stone special issue on the history of rock n roll. They called her the Godmother of Rock N Roll. I was very impressed and shocked; my mom always said rock music was invented by Black people but I always thought it was by men. Now I also just learned that a Black Woman invented Grunge!! No wonder I love rock music so much. Thank you for the Black History lesson, and the Women’s History lesson as well, Bailey!!! ❤️🖤💚
they should actually call her the Mother of Rock N Roll since she made it
@@dae2916 I totally agree!!!
I saw a documentary that also delved into the history of punk rock and its beginnings with a black band in the 70's in London, I think it was.
Who was the black woman that invented grunge?
@@KellieCorinne Her name was Tina Bell!
I love the way you are giving black people back their credit in your dark history podcast. Thank you for that. 😊
Yeah most people don't like the idea of someone digging up the truth.
LOL
Back from what?
@@projectionv.accountability1010 they mean that Bailey gives back the credit, instead of them not getting credit for their contributions to music
(NOT) Fun Fact: I took "The History of Rock & Roll" my first semester of college and the textbook DID NOT EVEN MENTION ROSETTA! I was gobsmacked. My professor's only mention of her was to check out "Rosetta Thorpe" if we wanted to learn more about gospel! He couldn't even get her name right, let alone her massive contribution to rock (but we spent weeksss on The Beatles). Thank you Bailey for being more thorough than my professor and talking about Sister Rosetta.
Seriously. That's messed up.
@@lovelight6973 Right?!?
Wow unbelievable this makes me so incredibly sad
Now I need to get my dad to dig up my old text book and check mine.....
I also took “The History of Rock & Roll” class in college, and I don’t ever remember learning about Sister Rosetta. Now I wish that she was added to the textbook. On the bright side, I don’t think my professor spent weeks on The Beatles. That, and they were grouped in with The Rolling Stones, The Who, and I think some other British bands when we were learning about them.
A band I loved as a teenager, Noisettes, wrote a song called ‘Sister Rosetta’, and it made me investigate her. She was the trigger for my exploration of the history of women in rock music, and how they were wayyyyy more prevalent in rock than I was led to believe as a kid. I didn’t realise grunge was invented by Tina Bell, a black woman… your local record store would never tell you that.
Wow! This is news to me.
Well, imo Grunge and Punk has a lot of toxic masculinity. Growing up I was really into punk, and guys in the scene would interrogate me to prove I really knew about punk or they'd push being straight edge XD.
I'd just say I don't have anything to prove, and then they'd say smthing like " oh so you don't know" and than proceed to talk down to me.
Look up the song Sister Rosetta comes before us by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, it's not a rock song per se but it's definitely an amazing one. Their voices meld together sooo well!
Loved the noisettes such a pivotal band for me 💕
That’s so interesting!
Just suggested her to our diversity department to feature on our bulletin board, all because of my Bailey🤗. Thanks girl!
*Update* Guess who showed up on the bulletin board!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I took a class on the history of women in music in college and we learned all about Sister Rosetta Tharpe. So glad you talked about her! Truly a gem lost in history
Bailey if you’re reading this, never forget the love all of us have for you. You’re amazing and super strong, keep pulling through, you have so much ahead of you ❤️💕!!
I second Natalie’s sentiment!! Along with all of my friends and acquaintances that also religiously watch and listen to your videos, I feel confident that they’d wholeheartedly agree with everything she pointed out. You’re a rockstar! Keep on doing exactly what you’re doing and stay true to yourself. 💞💞
I agree ❤🙌🏿
It's sad how women, especially black women, don't get the recognition they so deserve.
Honestly
True. Their role in history shouldn't be downplayed just because of their skin color
Victorian and Edwardian hair styling and dangers of putting on your face, so to speak.
go give attention then
@@idkman290 I do. Every single time I find out information about another woman I share that information with everyone I know.
Elvis is from the city about 25 minutes from me. His legacy is pretty strong in Tupelo, and it's a huge festival every year. I grew up listening to him religiously, and even his gospel records. I discovered Sister Rosetta Tharp and Mama Thorton about 10 years ago, and the influences of black artists on SO many white ones is absolutely INSPIRING despite how it's not widely talked about. We should expose and celebrate these historic and wonderful influences more often. Thank you for doing a piece on Rosetta!
True but that doesn’t make Elvis a bad person or a racist
@@no1nestandsalone387 At what point did I say he was racist?
@@no1nestandsalone387 it wasnt his fault and it's hard to believe he was racist. It was the world he was living in. Everyone no matter what color should be able to enjoy and play music no matter it's origins. The issue was that society didnt care too much to see black people, so for sales they got a white guy to emulate a black sound. The "bad guy" would be the record company and society(not really one person to blame here). He was open about his influences from black people and was invited to many black spaces. there's only one racist quote from him that has proven to only be a rumor. Black people that worked with him didnt have issues with him and if they did it was over the unfair situation of his success rather than him being a terrible person and a racist. It's not fair to call him racist when there's nothing to support it. he did the best he could at the time with trying to highlight his inspirations, it was the world that didnt want to care, support, or acknowledge the black artists as well.
Black folks have also been removed from ancient Egypt.
Black folks were celebrated more so across the pond than right here in the. USA. British start-ups like the BEATLES and the ROLLING STONES grew up on Little Richard, worshipped him, then these young Brits came to the USA, emulated Little Richard and became richer, more famous and more loved than Little Richard.😢
Lead Belly was renowned in Folk Music from 1903-1949, and he was inspired by Blind Mellon Jelly. However, a White fella named Woodie Guthrie who was born in 1913 is somehow published as being the face of Folk Music, one of its creators instead of simply one of its participants.
Benny Goodman is labeled the King of Swing although Cab Calloway and Duke Ellington were earlier pioneers, although not the earliest (that title belongs to a different Black man) in the genre before White guys became participants. It is important for the same reason that Wilbur and Orville Wright, alone, are credited with the invention of the airplane. Give credit where it is due. Somehow when Black folks create a product and White folks get in on it at a later date, the White guy is credited as the originator and Black folks are said to have just contributed. And the American history books are just fine with perpetuating the lie. That is not all White folks, just USA White folks. The Brits seem to have no problem with the truth.
It would be so cool if, after some time, she combined all the stories and wrote a book! And it would be with categorized like dark history of music, dark history of politics etc.
I would buy it so fast
YES
This one really touched me. As a black female rock lover I was always dubbed an “Oreo”. Hearing this for some reason makes me feel better and not an oddball for loving what I love. Thank you Bailey for being human.
@Traci Klein beautifully said... I agree
Same!
but for real...EVERYONE loves Oreos!
@@noahlipham6252 that response... didn’t have the effect you thought it did. Love the positivity though 😁
🌹
As a black woman, I’m so glad you brought light to this as I didn’t know exactly which black person should be a credited for Rock & Roll. Love these dark history series!
As a lover of rock music I didn't even know about this woman. And now I do and that's pretty awesome the impact she had what an icon.
Thanks so much for sharing Rosetta's story with us. Incredible woman and I'm glad she FINALLY got some recognition like with the R and R Hall of Fame, for all she gave us. Great episode.
It's sad a lot of women dont get the recognition and honor they deserve.
especially women of color
A lot of women use to have their husband's take credit for their inventions since they wouldn't recognize a woman's work.
*BLACK women
@ThatAfroGirl I never knew that.
LOL, oh please
Bailey should do a dark history on makeup.... ya know cause she likes true crime and makeup. Its perfect! 💄
More specific! Far too many to cover but great idea!
I think the history of lipsticks since it's tied to whaling and war efforts would be interesting.
Aqua Tofana ?
YESSSSS makeup history thru time😁
Yesssss, especially since lead was used in so many products
As a active member of COGIC I can honestly admit it’s a lot of things that happens within the organization I would love for u to dig and do a dark history about it !!
Ditto
Thank you so much for talking about Rosetta. I try to bring so much awareness and I'm a huge fan of her music. She inspires me so much 😍 I wish I knew about her much earlier and I hope this reaches heaps of other musicians!!
Celebrating Black Legends during Black History Month! Much Respect Bailey❤️
No disrespect but me Bailey are you mixed heritage? Where are you from? Where do I show up for band auditions? LoL!
@@miraclesblessings5044 pretty sure she’s Hispanic not Black
@@miraclesblessings5044 i think she’s Armenian
@@CeylanPrincess well whatever her ethnicity I think that she's gr8!
If you would be a history teacher, no one would miss a class!
Bailey did a better job than my "History of Rock & Roll" professor!
That’s very true!
Homework would be….here’s this topic, now just go down a rabbit hole and let me know what you get.
that'd be awesome
No one except Bailey 😉
I love how you take interest in a subject,do your research, find the truth and use your massive platform to give credit where it's due♡ love you Bailey
Thank you! Thank you Bailey for showing Sister Rosetta the respect she deserves. Also, love that Joan Crowford brought her guitar! 🎸
NEVER HEARD OF ROSETTA AND I TOOK A HISTORY OF ROCK AND ROLL CLASS AT A UNIVERSITY! So sad! Thanks for sharing!
Me neither why didn't we learn about her? And that she was the originator of Rock & Roll? Oh was it because she was black & white people hated giving people of ethnicity any credit I wonder?
That's so crazy
@@catspaw3092 probably. That and she was a woman.
@@lovelight6973 Oh definitely because she was a woman.
As a black woman who loves rock music and always got told it was for white people, I appreciate you spreading the truth about it’s origins more than you know. And during Black History Month too! Thank you for using your platform to stop misinformation 🖤💚❤️
You don't know the half of it
@@LifeisANovel Oh believe me, I do. I dress pretty alternative and when I was younger I was emo asf and got told all the time it wasn’t meant for me because I’m black. I basically just said “F y’all, you’re wrong” and turns out they were 😌🤘🏿
@Kay Brianna who told you that? But yeah that'll still go one long after we're dead I'm sure. I just mean alot of things blacks are not credited with lol
Oh heck no rock is for everyone! 🤘
music man
We NEED this as a movie! I would love to see this on a big screen
Bailey please do a dark history on the insane asylum/sanitarium’s/state hospitals back in the 1800-1900’s and all the cruel “treatments” that were preformed and all the strange things that happened within their walls!
YESSSSSS
Yes!!!!
Bailey coming through with the Black History Month education 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My thoughts exactly!!!!! Yes!!!!! Amazing!!!!
Love how you’re doing stories on Black History! The fashion designer Ann Lowe also has an interesting story because she created the gowns for the John F. Kennedy wedding but never received credit because she was a black woman. 😢

The best bit of Ten things I hate about you is when he sings and dances in the stand. Oh my heart just melts. Poor Heath
I'm learning SO much from this podcast, and History was my least favorite class. I introduced this to my husband who's a history buff and he loves it. Thank you Bailey for making it a little more interesting 💗
I’m here to apply for the role of: “cymbals.”
Can’t wait for matching jackets and to tell my parents our band name! Bye!
Why is Donald Trump pretty and I am not? But why does he only have a wife but I have TWO HANDSOME GIRLFRIENDS who I show off in my masterpiece YT videos? Do you know the answer, dear hol
i think i remember how to play a c chord on a guitar, can i audition?
@@JoJos_Mojo only if i can change my band role to “hand clapper”
@@HolliMostella deal
I call Cow Bell
sister rosetta tharpe + big mama thornton + odetta is like the holy trinity of blues. love that you did this one, bailey! 💙 also, I'm a drummer and would definitely start a punk band with you ☺️
You are forgetting Mahalia Jackson
I have seen Odetta live. What an experience. On the same bill was Taj Mahal, who I adore, and Bromberg and lots of others I can't recall. I was 15 at a festival. I'm far from 15 now.
I’m a pianist and a vocalist and you punk out the piano, and vocals.
@@no1nestandsalone387 You can’t forget about her!
Don't forget Billie Holiday (from our Jazz vid) and Etta James!
Mondays have been forgotten... 😕😫😫😫
I wasn't familiar with her but thank you so much for introducing her to us. I am so sorry that people treated her like this when she seemed like such an amazing woman
I love that Bailey talks about Black History events and people. In highschool we were taught about Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King etc. Black history is just as important if not more important. Bailey would be that teacher that kept your attention and had a full class.
I remember in my junior year of high school, they treated Malcolm x like he was a footnote in history. I was so upset about that and my teacher told us that they tend to brush over Malcolm bc he made black people feel like they had a right to defend themselves and some white ppl didn't like that.
Sister Rosetta Tharpe is amazing! So glad you're talking about her and black and brown musicians who truly paved the way in rock music.
Sadly, I've never felt this proud to be a black woman!
Thanks Bailey. ❤️🥰🥺
Thank you for recognizing how important Sister Rosetta is! More people should know how incredible she really was!
Great story. I had never heard of Rosetta Thorpe (I am 75 years old). I was privileged to see The Ink Spots (who you mentioned) in concert in the 70s (they were aging at that point but had a great reputation. My husband who got into gospel music after his retirement brought us to the “gospel sing” at which a band plays and whoever wants to get up and sing can (very popular here in SW Virginia). I said all this to tell you that two very popular songs at these sings are “Up Above My Head” and “Ain’t No Grave”. Two Rosetta Thorpe songs you mentioned in your Podcast. You go girl. Love your posts.
I think we all agree that Bailey is making our days much better💜
She's definitely what my life needed ❤
Thank you so much for speaking on things that some of us would never know. I just wanna say if you read this bailey we appreciate you. I hope you find so much happiness out there. You truly are something I look forward to but most importantly you spread love and inspiration. We love you so much. You can do this!!!
Thank you so much for not only talking about all these great artists that have been buried by the music industry but also for telling their stories and not letting them be buried and hidden away!!!!
When Lizzo said “Black people made rock n roll yeah” in her song Rumors,she wasn’t lying 💕💕
Honestly I often say Black culture is often duplicated but rarely uplifted. None of these people should be lost in history, and I really appreciate Bailey putting a light on many minorities histories.
But when you say white people started jazz it’s a lie and racist? 🤨
@@AV-bz2zv well it IS a lie sooooo….🤷🏾♀️
@@AV-bz2zv what are confused about? 😕 Yes, the roots of rock n roll like make things were copied from minorities.
We love you, Bailey! Thank you for showing up for us, when you don’t have to 🖤🤘🏼
I must have missed something but where are MMMondays? Those are the ones I really love and look forward to. What's going on? Anyone? Ty!
I’m so thankful that my musical family taught me the facts. I grew up with Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Memphis Minnie, Big Mama Thornton, Odetta Holmes, Ruth Brown, and the list goes on. It gave me such a respect for the true pioneers of music and a distaste for those like Elvis who take credit from those deserving of it.
You’re one of the best Allies the Black Community could ask for Happy Black History Month
Snow, warm blanket, my knitting, and DARK HISTORY is my entire mood rn!
I just put it on myself and getting my crocheting out
Long time fan! Miss your MMM series! Am I missing uploads?
I'm a Rosetta, we're pretty awesome; it's just in the name! She was a real inspiration that didn't get to inspire. You're awesome for sharing her story ❤️
Who couldn't love Bailey?!
I'll bet she's already gotten 100 triangle offers and a tour booked.
Sister Rosetta, yes!! I first read about her in a book as a kid, she is honestly one of the coolest people who ever lived. The musician Frank Turner did a song about her, too!
I always enjoy your videos but this one is right up my alley. I'm a HUGE Blues fan, and that led me to Sister Rosetta. Been a fan for many years. I glad to hear her getting her, very well earned, just credit. Please, please please! Do one on Josephine Baker. She was an incredibly talented musician and dancer, a WWII spy, and all around genuine badass.
I learned about Sister Rosetta a few years before her induction RRHOF. I'm so appreciative that you are helping to tell her story.💜💜💜🌷
I play guitar and I LOVE PUNK!! Let's do this. Every Dark History topic makes me love Bailey More and More. Love Hound Dog and I play Sister Thorpe often on my Pandora!
Another guitar player here!
I'll bring my bass!
I play the Uke!
Call it 3 strings and a triangle 😆🤪
I’m here for vocals! Let’s goooo
Rosetta was beautiful. You know how people say ' she has a smile that could light up a room' ? Well, that is the smile that lit up a house.
What a refreshing and enlightening story! Tragic in parts and underrated people, but inspiring to know about such pioneering women of colour and sexuality!
Thanks for using your platform to put this information out there. Happy Black History Month!!
5 years ago, when my granddaughter was born, I was inspired by my own childhood, but even more by how black children responded to Black Panther, & I thought I should do some research & collect some women's history, give her some role models to look up to. That led to my understanding that although some things have changed for women, many things have not. That led to my realization that women have an enormous amount of pressure put on them & I started really paying attention to women who shared their experiences. I had already gotten sober, which is a process of examing yourself, but the research & stories made me analyze my past & present behavior, actions & motives. This has all led to a profound change in my relationships with women, whether its my daughter & grandchildren or women I'm friends with. Its made me get more vocal online about that, especially trying to convince men that they should also educate themselves on women's experiences. I get a ton of hate mail from men because they are so fragile, so I don't really follow comments anymore when I talk about this - but - its great to see others learning about women's history, because they have been buried & dismissed for hundreds of years. Love your videos, love your commentary, & it was my daughter that turned me on to you.
Your granddaughter is lucky to have you! I was raised by my grandparents and they were a huge influence on my life.
Thank you for introducing many of us to her. What an incredible woman. I can’t believe I’d never heard her music before.
Me either! My mama brought me and my sisters up listening to rock and roll. And this was back in the 50s. We’re white but Little Richard, Fats Domino and Jerry Lee Lewis were regulars at our house. I don’t know how we missed Sister Rosetta.
Not gonna lie sister Rosetta is very underrated she even inspired little Richard to sing and taught him to
I went and looked her up, WOW! She was amazing and so talented! This is a sad story in so many ways.
PERIOD! When I found this out I felt so valid as a black femme whom is a rock n roller myself. The guitar always spoke my language. And I love that she existed!
WHO ELSES DAYS GET BETTER WHENEVER SHE POSTS
Me !!!!
Same!
DITTO ‼️
I have heard of her but had no clue how amazing and influential she was and still is. Thank you Bailey for enriching our lives by letting us hear so many stories that have very rarely been told
Where have you been on mondays?! We miss you 😅
She explains it on her Instagram stories.
Yay 3 minutes in. Sending you love Bailey from Johannesburg South Africa 🇿🇦❤. Look how far you have come. Absolutely wonderful!!!
My home!
So glad you did this one. Ms. Rosetta is such an important part of music history and very few people know about her. Very very cool.
Bailey you tell HISTORY, and i love you for it,, ill suppport whatever u do, cause u put your heart in it and the love is felt. PLEASE DONT CHANGE
Thank you Bailey for spotlighting this history.
As a black women it's much appreciated that you do stories like this💜✌🏿💋
Wow. I heard of her on a TV programme called The Voice about 15 years ago. I researched her and found CD's on Amazon and bought some for myself and an older musician. He was surprised and laughed and said 'she's a bit before your time', lol
I hope MM&M comes back soon!! Miss my Monday dose of Bailey!
Me too
Same honestly all she is posting is dark history like where is MM&M
We want MM&MM!! Pleaseeee Baileeey pleaaase😩😩😩😩
She'll be back. Mad props to her for continuing to air these.
@@vanillishslushie6407 It's coming back. She's been keeping people (mostly) up to date on Twitter.
Bailey, Thank You for this Black History Moment!! Perfect way to kick of Black History Month!! Xoxoxo your fren from The Bronx!!
One thing that I have noticed over the past year watching Bailey is that she always does her sets and stories based off of the holidays that are around at the time of filming. I love it. Because I love all holidays.
I hope you doing well. You are strong Bailey, hang in there. You deserve nothing but happiness ❤️❤️❤️
Is she okay? What is happening? I'm lost
@@rafael8892 Her and Fernando broke up :((
@@zaraarsenijevic12 how do you know this I can't find it anywhere?
@@julieedwards6882 she made posts on twitter about it a week or so ago
It’s crazy all the R&R icons you mentioned who were inspired by Rosetta-a woman who’s name I just heard today
Keep it comin’ Bailey 💚 the truth shall set us all free!
Thank you so much for this video Bailey! As an elementary music teacher, this is one of the lessons that has had my fifth graders the most engaged all year. I was blown away that I hadn't heard about Sister Rosetta before this, but now that I know about her, she is here to stay in my curriculum. Thank you again for sharing history with us and inspiring us to learn something new everyday!
I'm here because I've watched all MMM Mondays and there's no new ones😞but anyways, We love you Bailey!
Early gang! Love you Queen!
You never cease to amaze me Bailey. I enjoyed this segment of sister Rosetta. I am appalled of the way that women in our history I've been treated. Going unrecognized how many years. It's only when women voice their opinions together,that it seems to be heard. I say bravo Bailey, for all women speak your mind. 👏 👏 👏
Wow. All those years of wanting ppl to love her for her voice and shes in an unmarked grave. Thank yiu for giving her story life again and educating us. I appreciate it.
10 seconds into this video and I’m so regretting starting hearing you on the podcast Dark History and NOT on CZcams first😩😭😭😭 The vibes are 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I’m so down for starting the group!🙌🏽
This story rocks! Pun intended. And you are right about Big Mama Thornton. Her (the original version) of Hound Dog is sooo much better. Thanks, Bailey!
I agree
Way better!
better than elvis
Sorry, I mentioned her above!!!!
Growing up in a Chicago based COGIC church, the was you explain the rules and ways of worship are still pretty true for most COGIC churches today. I was privileged to grow up in a church where the “old/original” rules like no worldly involvement (movies, music like you mentioned, sports for women, pants for women, etc), but I know of a lot of older churches that still preach and hold to a lot of those outdated traditions. Makes me crazy. But the music on the other hand, still amazing and moving and exciting!
Thanks Bailey for always educating me on my own history ❤️
One of my favorite artists, Frank Turner, made a tribute album to women and the best song on the album is "Sister Rosetta." That was how I learned about her. Great to see you did a Dark History about her because the story is awesome!
Bailey I have so much respect for you on so many levels. Thank you for taking the time to do the home work and give facts about the origins of rock and roll!! Love your videos!! 💜💜❤️
I've always wanted to be in an all girl punk band. Legit been a 20 year long dream (and counting). I'm down for joining such band ☺
I don;t like punk (the way it sounds) at all but I love the politics and fashion of it all....I remember working with this quiet shy white girl back in the day but eventually she told me she was in an all girl punk band and she had my IMMEDIATE respect lol \m/
Sales of “Shout, Sister, Shout” just went through the roof thanks to Bailey. 🎸 🎤
I’ve been really appreciating your episodes lately, they’re very informative for yt folks and disconnected folks, delivered in a way they’ll take in well
Can you post more of your Monday videos please :c I miss them
U Truly make my day better with ur genuine 💓 sweetness, wit, humor & all around cheekiness!
Lots luv from BC CANADA 🇨🇦
You should talk about Rosalind Franklin one day, without her work we wouldn't know the structure of DNA!
Love this. Just goes to show that you're the only thing holding yourself back from greatness ❤️
It's crazy to know that I've never heard of this woman who played such a huge role in the careers of some of the biggest stars we've ever seen. I watched some videos of his Sister Rosetta and she is amazing. Thanks for introducing me to her Bailey!
In water is wet news…Black women are creative, innovative and trailblazing! Great video Bailey 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
"In water is wet news" 😆 I see what you did there. I like it. 👏🏽😅
FACTS
I LOVE THIS EPISODE! It is also heart health awareness month and Feb 7-14th is congenital heart defect awareness week and CHD patients like myself I think would really appreciate if you maybe could do an episode on the early ways doctors went about treating heart disease or heart problems before things like open heart surgery, stents and Medication became modern! Just a thought since open heart surgery for example is a still a new technique and I can only imagine the dark history it comes with!
I have 1 living and 1 angel CHD sibling. I am glad that you are sharing about CHD awareness too! 😊
@@2987cutiepie ❤️❤️🙏🏼
Thanks for this episode, Bailey!! I did know Sister Rosetta Thorpe, but I didn't know a lot of details of her life. Thank you for always bringing us the stories that are hardly ever talked about.
I love you and Rosetta. Thank you for featuring her. She deserves the recognition. 👍🏾😉😘❤️🔥💯🔥
