This is the proper role for black people today. More of the younger blacks should be proper like this MR. Bojangles character. This is back when black people knew their place. tap dancing and what not is what the black is best at anyway

My dad just happened to be watching "Child Star: The Shirley Temple Story" when I sat down with him, this scene was played out, and I thought "gee, that tune sounds awful familiar!" sure enough, I realised I was thinking of Kanye West's Gold Digger. Now, my question is, Gold Digger came from Ray Charles' I Got A Woman and that apparently came from "Jesus Is All The World To Me". I can't hear it in that hymn, I think it came from here! Can anyone give more info on the tune in this clip! Thanks!

Fox studios was advised by managers of movie theaters in the south that scenes like this would not be well received and should be cut. And all though this movie was popular in the south, many towns people protested outside the theaters during the showing times.

This should be the dictionary definition for the word "beautiful". Really.
