Gertie LaRue (Francine Everett) is a nightclub entertainer from the Harlem neighborhood of New York City. She arrives on the Caribbean island of "Rinidad" to perform as the headliner in a revue at the Paradise Hotel. Gertie has earned the nickname "Dirty Gertie" for the casual nature in which she entices and then humiliates men. On the island, she attracts the attention of two U.S. military officers – a soldier and a sailor – whom she nicknames "Tight Pants"...

This is a B-western with an all-black cast that includes Spencer Williams and Mantan Moreland. Mantan's part isn't large, but he does have some very telling moments. Unfortunately this print represents the poor state of preservation of many surviving race films. Written and Directed by Richard C Kahn. Released in 1938. Approximately 4 minutes are missing. SPECIAL NOTE: The copyright notice in the opening credits refers to content not included here. This film is in the public domain. CAST NOTE:...

Shipwrecked Blues is a Spencer Williams composition from 1925. Clara Smith sang this song in the 20s and it's a great version if you can find it. The music was recorded and mixed with Audacity 1.3 Beta (open source) on an old Dell lap top with very inexpensive microphones.
Topics: Clara Smith, Spencer Williams, 1920s, Hawaiian Steel Guitar, Open D minor, Resonator Ukulele, Blues

What appears to be a painted wooden sign like the one in the Mystic Knight of the Sea Lodge Hall on the Amos'n'Andy early 1950's situation comedy that was criticized by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; the N.A.A.C.P. started in 1909.
