One of the most honest interviews Marys ever given. I have never herd her say in an interview that the rape is why Flo became an alcoholic. Im sure it was given there was no rape counseling and it wasnt talked about back then. The poor girl. Heartbreaking. May she be free from all that pain up in heaven.

One thing to take from this interview is it's clear she still considers Diana and Florence her sisters through it all. The loss of Flo is still so heartbreaking.

Reactionary, racist, imperialistic and fond of cultural misappropriation? Or is Wilson just unable to make more appropriate similes?

But ... what happens in Motown stays in xxx ... actually, becomes fodder for Wilson to get publicity with.
