#sentimentsofsankofa / #standingontheshouldersofgiants Repost @scribesandvibes ・・・ The rebirth of #BlackTheatre commenced in May of 1921 when #ShuffleAlong opened the curtains at the #SixtyThirdStreetTheatre in New York City. Ironically, as #BlackWallStreet was set ablaze by angry white mobs in Tulsa, #BlackBroadway set #thetheatre world on fire - attracting unprecedented white audiences. Lauded for its unheralded introduction of #BlackLove, the Shuffle Along production pushed America forward, allowing two Black people to #fallinlove #onstage. Regarded as the epitome of the #HarlemRenaissance, the Shuffle Along #musical ran #onBroadway for a record setting 500-some-odd performances. Despite being critiqued by skeptics [for boldly daring to shine a light on #BLACKONBLACKLOVE during a time when Black Sexuality was considered dangerous and #AmericanTheatre was still in blackface], anomalous aesthetics such as "more than the usual number of comedians under cork in one show," vivacious dancers, and an all-black cast set the tone for the landmark #musicalcomedy to breakdown color barriers. We'd like to take a moment to pay #homage to #FlournoyMiller, #AubreyLyle, #EubieBlake, #NobleSissle, and the #HowardTheatre for removing the blackface and orchestrating the beauty of Black faces on stage. -Stevie #historyheritageandhumanities ・・・ #scribesandvibes • #therebirthofcool • #blacklovematters • #theatrevibes • #BlackHistoryMonth https://www.instagram.com/p/CoXYDBPAvck/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🕊Wow... Peaceful transitions to the legendary, trailblazing entertainer #MauriceHines, who has passed just a few weeks after turning 80. The award-winning documentary Maurice Hines: Bring Them Back @mauricehinesmovie - a "...poignant portrait of the unapologetically Black and gay elder tap and Broadway showman" - is fantastic! Please watch to learn more about his remarkable life and career: www.mauricehinesmovie.com

Executive produced by my hero @therealdebbieallen, "Maurice Hines: Bring Them Back is an intimate portrait an intimate portrait of an outspoken showman who with humor and grace navigates the highs and lows of a seven-decade career, and a complex relationship with his superstar brother, Gregory Hines."
