The glass shattering Hattie McDaniel was born 133 years ago today. The first African-American to win an Academy Award, she also opened the doors for those who came after her.
Although even her big moment was steeped in the humiliations of Jim Crow & segregation, her dignity never wavered
"Her final wish, to be buried in Hollywood Cemetery, was denied because at the time of her death, the graveyard was segregated."

Ida B Wells' Winchester Rifle
Hattie McDaniel's acceptance speech at the 12th Academy Awards in 1940.
Another Black woman wouldn't win an Academy Award until 1991 when Whoopie Goldberg received her Oscar.
“The ceremony at which she won her Oscar was strictly segregated.”
Racism is so stupid!
Does he have a movie yet?
