Original Note:
At 14, Garland was under a strict contract and kept on pills by her mother. While having almost no decision-making power, she wore blackface in the film Everybody Sing. However, she strongly supported the civil rights movement, helping organize and fundraise for the cause. https://www.carnegielibrary.org/staff-picks/judy-garland/ https://www.newsweek.com/judy-garland-blackface-photo-resurfaced-decades-later-1820725
