Bee Freeman the Black Mae West
I have the similar sentiment, but actually, Mae West got all her swagger from strong women like Bessie Smith and other black women from that era.
GREAT movie. Watched whole then . Another example of how blacks did so well in those times.
In spite of those times you mean. Don’t get it twisted. No protection under the law, at the mercy of outlaws and American terrorists like the Klan was no picnic. It speaks to their strength, faith and intelligence to have survived those times
Oscar micheaux, was way ahead of his time, if he was white he would have been hail as the greatest of his era. This film somewhat show that freedom from slavery only made some black people mimic the old slave masters over their fellow blacks, so one have to ask, was freedom worthwhile for some black folks?.
