Look up Black designer and seamstress named ANN LOWE. She designed an sewed the wedding dress of Jacqueline Kennedy, the wife of President John Kennedy. She was the Aunt of my childhood friend. I didn't know all of how famous she was until I got older. Later in life she became blind and me and my friend use to visit her where she lived on Manhattan Avenue in Harlem. She knew a great many of the socialites of the Elites in America. Please look her up and know that Black women and men didn't get the credit and notoriety that they deserved RIP Auntie Lowe, that's what we called her.
So few views because our children are not being taught this in schools, and as long as we depend on our oppressors to educate us we'll always be in bad shape, as spoken by a Harlemite, Malcolm X.
Not so much now. Whites and the bourgeoisie came back and made it unaffordable for ordinary working people who lack the inherited wealth and friends at the bank. Racism plays musical chairs. 😢
I visit to say prayers in a beautiful Bronx cemetery at various seasonal intervals. An amazing place of immense energy. Madame CJ's grave is a prayer stop for me. She was incredible. VIVA
that was very well done and entertaining, kept me interested throughout with the way you edited it. Loved the content and did not know that all of that happened in such a small area. What amazing people they were, wonderful story telling keep up the great work everyone. peace to you all
Oh my goodness ... Everyday I learn how much I don't know!! Thank you for sharing all of this, especially Ms. Savage. Yes, I'll definitely take the A train. Love the hairstyles at the fashion show.
Why hasn't there been a movie made about her? What a story! How come there isn't a street named after her? Or a building? The amount of wealth she amassed was unheard of back then not only for a woman, but a Black Woman at that! She's a hero for ALL WOMEN!
Beautiful documentary and great footage - but why was it necessary to omit Walker was given her chance by Malone? Just for the records: the first self-made black millionaire of the Americas (and the first female millionaire of South America) was Elizabeth Samson from Suriname (more than 100 years before Malone & Walker) though her income source sadly proves she was anything else but a philanthropist ...
Style and elegance didn’t keep us in Harlem and an aesthetic no matter how lovely won’t keep us in History. When Black people figure that out we’ll be on our way to permanent prominence , globally.
I did not know this information about Ethel Waters, having her own show and radio, Augusta Savage, with the Harlem School of The Arts as well as Josephine Baker being from Harlem. Very good. Where is the music piece from? Thanks. 4/10/22. 416pm
Our children are not being taught anything in schools, but slavery and this CRT is a bunch of bs to shade us from our real history, all mofos want to do now is twerk, like they learning something. How low can we go.
I truly enjoyed the history but I was disappointed with the presenters mispronunciation and stumbling of many words. I would assume a presenter or host would know the history. This is very important history that should be told verbatim, they deserved better. I love the history but not the way it was presented.
Did not know those factors about Ethel Waters having her own show and being on the radio show, I just heard her name mentioned from parents. Also that Josephine Baker was from Harlem. This was very good. In addition to Augusta Savage and The Harlem School of The Arts. What music piece is this from? Thanks.
The Harlem Renaissance should be taught in schools just like the Protestant Reformation, the Spanish Inquisition, the Magna Carta, it was the most cultural transformation of arts and culture in our history. Teachers teach Civil War, Reconstruction, WW1, the Depression, then run on into WW2 by that time the school year is just a few weeks from being over so they just skip right over it, seldom mentioning it at all, I've seen a paragraph or two about it with the advent of blacks migrating to the north and out west to California.
She was not the first made millionaire correction it was Annie Turbo Malone let's be clear 🤨🥴👎🏼 Sarah breedlove stole mini ingredients and ideals from any turbo Malone who hired her and made her a protege and all she did was took the hair products put her name on it give a false story. That a African man came to her one night and gave her a list of plants and herbs which was a lie she stole it from any turbo malone. It's sad that nobody gives Annie her proper just do and recognition that rightfully she deserves. She was a beautiful icon and told Sarah breedlove when they separated she said although you stole my ideas you won't live long to enjoy it. And that's prophecy always for feel itself from a true prophetess and a turbo Malone when she passed away was 89 going in to 90 compared to Sarah breed love being right at 5051. When any turbo Malone died her family even to today still live off parole institute even to today of 2022 compared to Sarah breedloves child going through the whole fortune. Where standard WS has taken that house over it had been abandoned so long as suffered a lot of water damage over the years what a shame 👎🏼🤔 but I love the Harlem Renaissance with everyone else especially cab calloway Langston Hughes Booker t Washington some wonderful greats 🍷🥰🎊🎉💛♥️💚🖤
I really like Donald "Soul Man" Hyman..the cloth he wore were suave and debonair! This was entertaining... up until the " l sure wouldn't pay to hear her"... that women disgraceful performance of The Great Ethel Waters, Am l blue ! They could have found someone else who could sing! ... l was going to cut this off... but it was just too good! They should cut that bad number! Otherwise thumbs up 👍 l really like the narrator... he was great 👍
It would have been more accepting if there was a more chocolatier face advertising for this footage now I'm less than half interested in this footage 🤔❤️🖤💚
I'm a Great Niece of Bessie Smith. Thank you for keeping her memory alive!!
As a born and raised Harlemnite, I will always be proud of the historical significance of the HR👏🏾🙏🏾 Especially the fashion.
This documentary deserves to have more views, comments and likes!! Share this to others, folks!!
Elegance and dignity!
So prevalent.
May we return.
Especially our youth.
Yes you are correct but to the "Author " what happened to the other shades of AA women?
Look up Black designer and seamstress named
ANN LOWE.
She designed an sewed the wedding dress of Jacqueline Kennedy, the wife of President John Kennedy.
She was the Aunt of my childhood friend. I didn't know all of how famous she was until I got older. Later in life she became blind and me and my friend use to visit her where she lived on Manhattan Avenue in Harlem.
She knew a great many of the socialites of the Elites in America.
Please look her up and know that Black women and men didn't get the credit and notoriety that they deserved
RIP Auntie Lowe, that's what we called her.
Thanks
Beautiful. I sometimes wish we could go back to dressing more sophistication.
The way he said Soulman cracked me up, reminded me of Soooul Train. 😂
real soulful
Love this era for black renaissance. Sad to see so little views
So few views because our children are not being taught this in schools, and as long as we depend on our oppressors to educate us we'll always be in bad shape, as spoken by a Harlemite, Malcolm X.
I noticed most youtube videos featuring black people especially black americans, get low views
Honey, he had fun doing this video and I enjoyed watching every second of it!!!
I’m from Harlem and this was phenomenal! Thank you!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Very nice, I love history, thank you so much!
Harlem will forever be the Black Mecca of the world 🌎
Born and raised
HOLLA
Not so much now. Whites and the bourgeoisie came back and made it unaffordable for ordinary working people who lack the inherited wealth and friends at the bank. Racism plays musical chairs. 😢
Absolutely loved this documentary of the Harlem Renaissance ! 🙏
When we talk about the word RESPECT, these artists are the epitome of my RESPECT..there are not too many people out there that I REALLY RESPECT!
Infectious glamour and energy from this era! Just wow...
Thank you for this documentary 🙂💖💕

I know that it took a lot of work to create this video. Thank you. I appreciate the hard work.
that was very well done and entertaining, kept me interested throughout with the way you edited it. Loved the content and did not know that all of that happened in such a small area. What amazing people they were, wonderful story telling keep up the great work everyone. peace to you all
I’m actually reading “When Harlem Was In Vogue” for a Harlem Renaissance class in college right now❤️
I would love to see innovations for the future designers as well.
Lena horne,madam CJ walker and many others made up the Harlem Renaissance, im so glad they are finally getting recognized for their excellence ❤
Excellent documentary. Thank you. ❤️💫✨
Oh my goodness ... Everyday I learn how much I don't know!! Thank you for sharing all of this, especially Ms. Savage. Yes, I'll definitely take the A train. Love the hairstyles at the fashion show.
This was amazing!!! I was glued to my phone the entire presentation. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!!♥️♥️
Why hasn't there been a movie made about her? What a story! How come there isn't a street named after her? Or a building? The amount of wealth she amassed was unheard of back then not only for a woman, but a Black Woman at that! She's a hero for ALL WOMEN!
The more I think about it, a movie is a great idea! It's a perfect showcase for the fashions and style of that era.
Love the vintage clips.
Great documentary
Thank you will be saving it to watch again
Thank you Albany Institute tutu .
Harlem, A Beautiful Place!!!!
Great work!!!
Wow thanks for the presentation, we need to know the importance of our contribution to the USA.
Ps the only thing that keeps me watching is my chocolate brothers and sister's voices and their beautiful brown faces🥰❤️🖤💚
Autumn fashion continues at HBCU as hooks and local universities. Global design defined our need for fabulous attire.
Gratitude
LOVE THIS
Beautiful documentary and great footage - but why was it necessary to omit Walker was given her chance by Malone? Just for the records: the first self-made black millionaire of the Americas
(and the first female millionaire of South America) was Elizabeth Samson from Suriname (more than 100 years before Malone & Walker) though her income source sadly proves she was anything else but a philanthropist ...
I just LOVE this host! Who is he??
Brilliant
wish i had a time machine

YES SHE SURE DID!
Thank You for this "jewel." A beautiful sight in history. 💎💖💎💖💎💖💎💖😎
MADAM CJ WALKER LIVED NEXT DOOR TO THE ROCKEFELLERS.
I truly enjoyed the history but I was disappointed with the presenters mispronunciation and stumbling of many words. I would assume a presenter or host would know the history. This is very important history that should be told verbatim, they deserved better. I love the history but not the way it was presented.
You took the words right out of my mouth. I totally agree
That way the presenters told the story didn’t bother me, as long as the story was told.
Did these ladies design their clothes?
❤️❤️❤️
💙💙💙💙💙💙
Did not know those factors about Ethel Waters having her own show and being on the radio show, I just heard her name mentioned from parents. Also that Josephine Baker was from Harlem. This was very good. In addition to Augusta Savage and The Harlem School of The Arts. What music piece is this from? Thanks.
Google up "Rufus Jones for the President," starring Ethel Waters and Sammy Davis Jr
I thought Josephine was from East St. Louis.
The Harlem Renaissance should be taught in schools just like the Protestant Reformation, the Spanish Inquisition, the Magna Carta, it was the most cultural transformation of arts and culture in our history. Teachers teach Civil War, Reconstruction, WW1, the Depression, then run on into WW2 by that time the school year is just a few weeks from being over so they just skip right over it, seldom mentioning it at all, I've seen a paragraph or two about it with the advent of blacks migrating to the north and out west to California.
Related to PHYLLIS HYMAN??
stylish I Think so
I've seen this before. Sista at 5:14 is not having it!

Preach monie2514. You're telling the truth Annie Malone was the first millionaire

Dopage, y'all
Thank you for this documentary. However all i am seeing are a lot of women of " COLOUR" WHERE ARE THE OTHER SHADES? Good luck sir
Very informative! Keeping our history alive!👍
Being a darker complexioned woman was not en vogue.
This the comment I was looking for.
It would have been more accepting if there was a more chocolatier face advertising for this footage now I'm less than half interested in this footage 🤔❤️🖤💚
❤️❤️❤️
