"This is the story of an emancipation, that of a young Black and poor woman living in an American marked by segregation. This is the story of a fierce battle, that of a musician involved in the civil rights movement. This is the story of a long career, that of a pianist and singer as talented as determined. This is the story of Nina Simone, a unique artist, role model, and inspiration for generations to come. Genius pianist, fabulous singer and committed artist, Nina Simone remains an inspiration for generations"--Back cover.
