Props to all the bellmen of that era. That would have been considered a "great" job back in those days. A few of my uncles were bellmen and sent all of their children to college. They were decent respectable men.

Club Casino guy is so handsome

Was that Obama @1:01??

@djataras although ten cents was still not much because of his race...think of the times..its nearing or during recession times and plus ten cents was quite a bit back then...i mean gallons of gas used to cost ten cents..so putting it in perspective makes it sound less worse than it is...however it still was a smaller amount than white performers..

kinda makes you wonder if he would be dancing as a bellman if the country wasn't so ignorant(racist) at the time. Nevertheless, very talented!

He was a genius.
-
Besides being talented, he was a hottie!

Bojangles
Mister Bo Jangles
when this clip was made, Slavery was a living memory. JimCrow Law obtained in most of the country. Mister Robinson gently, oh so gently made them look at him and see a MAN. He and his ilk, were the pioneers that led to the situation today, where the Preservation Hall Jazz Band performed on the Grand Ol' Opry stage, where Oprah Winphry is OPRAH; Country stars are doing Rap, a Black guy is President....honor his memory you midgets. He did great things.

Calling him names only shows the negative energy in your heart and mind, as well as your ignorance. If your filled with hate, negative emotions, and ignorance I feel sorry for you, please keep that inside your self. Do not feel free to share!!
