Not Physically shown, but in a flashback it is revealed that Billie's mother made her work in the brothel as a prostitute.

It is mentioned that Billie had been raped in the past. (Not shown onscreen though). Also there is a flashback scene where Billie's mother told her she would have to work in the brothel to make her own money. Billie is still a child, therefore she cannot legally consent. (Nothing physical is shown onscreen though).

There is a scene where Billie (after making a stop for a bathroom break) stumbles upon a family where one of the members has been lynched. Not too mention "Strange Fruit", one of her songs that is heavily featured in this movie is about lynchings.
