Nona Hendryx at Women's March in D.C.

[Guy]

For those that saw Ashley Judd's dramatic reading of that incendiary yet compelling poem at the Women's March in D.C., wasn't the woman directly behind her on the bandstand Nona Hendryx? One third of Labelle, and the brilliant queer African-american singer/songwriter who gave us "Let Me See You In The Light", "I Believe That I Finally Made It Home" and "Black Holes In The Sky" among other gems. I can only wonder what she was thinking -- 72 years old, 50+ years into her professonal/artistic life -- having to march in the streets [[again!) for sh*t she thought she had locked down 4 decades ago. Or maybe she's just a warrior, always ready to lend her art and energy to the cause. A woman's work is never done...
