Duke Ellington performed regularly here, and Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday both launched their careers at the venue’s amateur night. You can say that the Apollo Theater was the ‘Motown’ before Motown. Today, the theater stands as an artifact on the bustling 125th street.

Langston Hughes' born Feb. 1, 1902. "What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up Like a raisin in the sun? Or fester like a sore-- And then run? Does it stink like rotten meat? Or crust and sugar over-- like a syrupy sweet? Maybe it just sags like a heavy load. Or does it explode?"

The Twenties
One cannot discuss Paris during the 1920's without including the singer and erotic dancer Josephine Baker. "La Baker" was an African American, probably of mixed race, who left America for Paris after encountering racism and censorship. By comparison, the jazz age in Paris was exotic, sensual and inviting for African American entertainers. Hemingway, Gertrude Stein and Picasso were all fans of Josephine Baker.
