Classic movie #198 : Angel face (1952)
Excellent criminal film noir, a strange story about obsessions, money, murders, psychopaths, femme fatales, guilt and unavoidable fate. Great cast, with the handsome and talented Simmons and Mitchum 👩🏻‍💼🤵🏻‍♂️🚗

I have to admit that even though I'm an atheist, I find it a powerfully attractive idea that these two are living it up in the afterlife while putting the band back together.

Tony Bennett was already a superstar when his friend, Harry Belafonte, asked him to go with him to Montgomery, AL, to march alongside Dr. King after racists attacked civil rights workers in an event now known as "Bloody Sunday." #TonyBennett #HarryBelafonte #mlk #CivilRights

🕊️🙏🏼RIP🙏🏼🕊️Mis Viola Liuzzo, you are a role model for the ages. The desantis’s of the world are trying to erase from history what you strong heroes did, but they won’t succeed. Tony Bennet I’m sure grieved your loss, I wish I had known you.🌟🕊️🙏🏼🕊️🌟

These were "dangerous times" for Tony Bennett to ally himself with his friends in support of the Black Civil Rights movement in AL. After the march in Montgomery, Tony was driven to the airport by volunteer Viola Liuzzo. Later that day, the KKK murdered her. #TonyBennett #ViolaLiuzzo #CivilRights

A screenshot from the NYT's obit on Tony Bennett. The text says: A lifelong liberal Democrat, Mr. Bennett participated in the Selma-to-Montgomery civil rights march in 1965, and, along with Harry Belafonte, Sammy Davis Jr. and others, performed at the Stars for Freedom rally on the City of St. Jude campus on the outskirts of Montgomery on March 24, the night before the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered the address that came to be known as the “How Long? Not Long” speech. At the conclusion of the march, Viola Liuzzo, a volunteer from Michigan, drove Mr. Bennett to the airport; she was murdered later that day by members of the Ku Klux Klan.

Last night at the GRAMMY Museum, I gave an impromptu lesson showing the throughline from #doowop to #kpop in the green room using my #graphicfacilitation skills on a mirror. One of the attendees jokingly asked, "Are you saying Blacks invented everything cool in America?" #blackmusic

A photo showing part of the impromptu drawing BMP founder Christopher Fuller drew showing how doo-wop is connected to many other genres — ending in its connection to K-pop music. The graphic started with a quickly drawn cartoon of doo-wop singers then used arrows to point to the other genres that came after.

A Big thumbs up to the new #doowop #documentary #film Heart & Soul: A Love Story! Though not an exhaustive history of the genre or deep sociopolitical exploration, the movie still gives you great insight into what doo-wop and its performers were about. #rocknroll #blackmusicmonth #FrankieLymon

A photo of doo-wop group Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers. The accompanying text: A big thumbs up to the new doo-wop documentary Heart & Soul: A Love Story! Though not an exhaustive history of the genre or deep exploration of the sociopolitical things happening in that world at the time, the movie still gave you great insight into what doo-wop and its performers were about.
Kenny Vance, a founding member of the 60s group Jay & The Americans, directed Heart & Soul; therefore, he tells it from his pov. Thankfully, his love for the music, particularly the Black people that originated it, comes through as he shines the light on the performers who inspired him.

I also distinctly remember that thrilling the hell out of me as a little kid. I mean, we had been exposed to tons of cartoon violence back then; but unlike Looney Tunes, you knew that poor motherf*cker wasn't coming back from that crash.

If we said we were about to write about the Asian influence in rap music, and your first thought was the Wu-Tang Clan, that would be understandable. However, the story we will explore takes place much earlier than that. #Jamaica #ChineseJamaicans #AAPI #AAPIHistoryMonth {#id:458783#} {#id:462433#} #WuTang

A BMP infographic showings drawings of African drums and a Chinese dragon filtering into a funnel. The accompanying text: If we said we were about to write about the Asian influence in rap music, and your first thought was the Wu-Tang Clan, that would be understandable. However, the story we will explore takes place much earlier than that — at the origin of the music (or at least one of the origin points). And that brings us to Jamaica and the Chinese Jamaican community there.
