[Ans] U2's "Angel of Harlem" was written about what singer?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "U2's "Angel of Harlem" was written about what singer?"



"Angel of Harlem" is a song by Irish rock band U2. "Angel of Harlem" was written about Billie Holiday, a Jazz singer who moved to Harlem as a teenager in 1928. Nicknamed "Lady Day”, Billie Holiday was one of the most influential jazz singers of all time. Her final years, however, were tragic. She became addicted to heroin, was swindled out of her earnings, and died of cirrhosis of the liver at age 44 with only $0.70 in the bank. She was arrested on her deathbed, in 1959, as narcotic addiction at that time was considered a crime, not an illness.

[Answer] The Harlem Globetrotters basketball team was founded in which city?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "The Harlem Globetrotters basketball team was founded in which city?"



...On this day in 1927, the Harlem Globetrotters played their first basketball game in Hinckley, Illinois. The Globetrotters originated on the south side of Chicago, where all the original players were raised. They decided to pick Harlem as their home city, since Harlem was considered the center of African-American culture at the time and an out-of-town team name would give the team more of a mystique. The Globetrotters didn’t actually play a game in Harlem until 1968. Over the years they have played more than 26,000 exhibition games in 123 countries and territories.
