@DesireeThunderbottom A lot of "good" church folk didn't care for Sister Tharpe because of her forays into secular music throughout her career.

@wendyvee - "I wish someone would produce a movie of Sister Rosetta's life. I think that Queen Latifah would have the chops to star in it." -- That seems like a VERY VERY good idea. I really like your style of thinking!!! Unfortunately, she's not mentioned a lot nowadays, so I don't know how popular the movie would be.
