Exactly. Exactly. But while she may have been overlooked in her own time, Marion's contributions live on in homes, in daycares, in Target bathrooms where the diaper changing station is always broken and the baby's screaming and you're like, what do you want from me?

Good evening, I'm Dulcé Sloan. And I'm Desi Lydic. Tonight, the story of Willie Mae Big Mama Thornton, a trailblazer whose trail was left brutally unblazed. What? It's the story of a forgotten woman never given her due. Why didn't you just say that the first time? I don't know. Growing up near Montgomery, Alabama, Willie May always had a passion for singing.
