Happy Birthday to Angela Davis!\n\nBorn Michelle Lynn Johnson in Washington, D.C., she adopted the phonetic spelling of her first name and the Swahili name Ndegeocello, meaning “free like a bird,” as her last name. Known for her fusion of soul music with rock and reggae, she is reportedly credited as the facilitator of the neo-soul movement in 1990s. Ndegeocello began her career in the go-go music scene of D.C. with such bands as Rare Essence and Little Bennie and the Masters.",
