#Interestingly Moms Mabley used her humor to shine a light on the struggles of Black Americans & women during the Civil Rights era... boldly calling out inequality while making audiences laugh. A true trailblazer, indeed! #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

There is a great HBO documentary on her which was done by Whoopi Goldberg that shed light on her career and a few books out there on her.
She had grown her Moms character from a younger age as sort of a "straight" character to get white audiences acceptance for her brand of humor.
