2007rif. 1974Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts No. 12. Hardcover volume measuring approximately 6" x 9" is new. xl/394 pages. "On 4 July 1910 in 100-degree heat at an outdoor boxing ring near Reno Nevada film cameras recorded_and thousands of fans witnessed_former heavyweight champion Jim Jeffries' reluctant return from retirement to fight Jack Johnson a black man. After 14 grueling rounds Johnson knocked out Jeffries and for the first time in history there was a black heavyweight champion of the world. At least 10 people lost their lives because of Johnson's victory and hundreds more were injured due to white retaliation and wild celebrations in the streets. Public screenings received instantaneous protests and hundreds of cities barred the film from being shown. Congress even passed a law making it a federal offense to transport moving pictures of prizefights across state lines and thus the most powerful portrayal of a black man ever recorded on film was made virtually invisible. This is but one of the hundreds of films covered in the "Historical Dictionary of African American Cinema" which includes everything from The Birth of a Nation to Crash. In addition to the films brief biographies of African American actors and actresses such as Sidney Poitier James Earl Jones Halle Berry Eddie Murphy Whoopi Goldberg Denzel Washington and Jamie Foxx can be found in this reference. Through a chronology a list of acronyms and abbreviations an introductory essay a bibliography appendixes black-&-white photos and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on actors actresses movies producers organizations awards film credits and terminology this book provides a better understanding of the role African Americans played in film history."
