An authoritative and valuable resource for students and scholars of film animation and African-American history, film buffs, and casual readers. It is the first and only book to detail the history of black images in animated cartoons. Using advertisements, quotes from producers, newspaper reviews, and other sources, Sampson traces stereotypical black images through their transition from the first newspaper comic strips in the late 1890s, to their inclusion in the first silent theatrical cartoons, through the peak of their popularity in 1930s musical cartoons, to their gradual decline in the 1960s. He provides detailed storylines with dialogue, revealing the extensive use of negative caricatures of African Americans. Sampson devotes chapters to cartoon series starring black characters; cartoons burlesquing life on the old slave plantation with "happy" slaves Uncle Tom and Topsy; depictions of the African safari that include the white hunter, his devoted servant, and bloodthirsty black cannibals; and cartoons featuring the music and the widely popular entertainment style of famous 1930s black stars including Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong, and Fats Waller. That's Enough Folks includes many rare, previously unpublished illustrations and original animation stills and an appendix listing cartoon titles with black characters along with brief descriptions of gags in these cartoons.

Five U.S. Air Force adventurers depart aboard "Anti-Grav One," from a secret desert location. The year is 2013 and their mission includes the testing of Albert Einstein's "Theory of General Relativity." They are primarily concerned with its "Time/Speed Continuum" projections. The astronauts expect to return from their five day, near warp-speed, mission with the passage of only a few weeks of earth-time. When they land on the coast of california they are shocked to find that more than a thousand years have passed on their home planet. What follows is the author's perception of what they will find in the year 3030, the Fourth Millennium. Sorry, no further clues as to what these dramatic changes will be. Naturally, this story touches on the young astronauts personal individual experiences, including developing love affairs--: it is a novel. Far beyong these intrigues, the primary message is one of hope and a positive view of the future for us all. There is, however, a faint hint of foreboding as the story closes. I am thoroughly convinced that this, or something quite similar, is what lies ahead for us all in the FOURTH MILLENNIUM.

Stealing the Show is a study of African American actors in Hollywood during the 1930s, a decade that saw the consolidation of stardom as a potent cultural and industrial force. Petty focuses on five performers whose Hollywood film careers flourished during this periodÑLouise Beavers, Fredi Washington, Lincoln ÒStepin FetchitÓ Perry, Bill ÒBojanglesÓ Robinson, and Hattie McDanielÑto reveal the Òproblematic stardomÓ and the enduring, interdependent patterns of performance and spectatorship for performers and audiences of color. She maps howÊthese actorsÑthough regularly cast in stereotyped and marginalized rolesÑemployed various strategies of cinematic and extracinematic performance to negotiate their complex positions in Hollywood and to ultimately Òsteal the show.Ó Drawing on a variety of source materials, Petty explores these starsÕ reception among Black audiences and theorizes African American viewership in the early twentieth century. Her book is an important and welcome contribution to the literature on the movies.
