072: Black Face and Minstrelsy in Britain
The History Hotline - A podcast by Deanna Lyncook - Tuesdays
The Black and White Minstrel Show ran for 20 years, at a time in Britain where race relations were growing ever tenser. How did a show like this manage to run for so long? Where did minstrelsy come from? (America if you didn't know) How did the show eventually draw to a close?****hint: We can thank Diana Ross!!
