Columbus, Georgia Gave Us Ma Rainey. She Gave the World the Blues.
Born Gertrude Pridgett in 1886 in Columbus, Georgia, the artist would go on to become Ma Rainey. Known as the Mother of the Blues, Rainey was a woman whose voice reshaped American music long before most women, let alone Black women, were allowed to perform on stage. Ma Rainey didn’t wait for permission. She walked in, sang out, and carved her legacy with grit and determination.
