A queer, Black “biography in essays†about the performer who gave us “Hound Dog,†“Ball and Chain,†and other songs that changed the course of American music. Denise pushes past the stereotypes to read Thornton’s life through a Black, queer, feminist lens and reveal an artist who was an innovator across her four-decade-long career.
