pickWhat an interesting life - first being married to the famous (or infamous) Charles Lindbergh; second finally finding her own ‘voice‘. And of course the kidnapping of their first born son. HF

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫 𝐇𝐢𝐥𝐥 by 𝐑𝐞𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐓𝐚𝐭𝐞 is the fascinating, heartbreaking, fictionalized story of Hattie McDaniel's too-short, remarkable life. She fought against racism & discrimination, & achieved “firsts,“ including winning an Oscar, but was criticized for accepting “demeaning“ roles when the only parts available to her because she was Black were domestics & enslaved women. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
#motivationalmonday Thanks @TheSpineView for the tag!
1) crafting this weekend with girlfriends ❤️🩷💙

3) I love cats and bees (an animal?) but I think I‘d either want to be a songbird or a clumsy panda (because I have “clumsy” down already)

Hattie McDaniel is now on my radar. Society handicapped her in ways that were unjust, unkind and down right hateful at times. History is an important fact of who we are and where we are today. There were many moments during my reading that I had to close the book and say a quick prayer. The author understood the assignment…her words flowed flawlessly and set in my soul in a manner that allows me to truly appreciate who Hattie McDaniel was.

pickDid I really mean to read a book about F. Scott Fitzgerald‘s last few years and Zelda‘s hospitalization? No. But I did want to read an O‘Nan story. Somehow the author kept my interest through his writing style, even as the book began to lag. Not necessarily O‘Nan‘s fault - I mean how many times can you make it interesting that Fitzgerald fell off the wagon yet again? Would I recommend the book? Probably not. But I enjoyed O‘Nan‘s effort.

The book is a fictional take on Stevenson and Fannie and their crazy travels. I‘m looking forward to it!

pickThe amount of research that must‘ve gone into this one is impressive. Learned so much about Hattie McDaniel that I hadn‘t known before. Tate did a beautiful job of bringing Hattie to life. Amazing how many stars and future stars she knew during her day. Also didn‘t realize just how many films she‘d actually been in, though I was aware she‘d been on stage before she did film.
