California Curriculum Content Standard, History/Social Science, 11th Grade: 11.10.2 — Examine and analyze the key events, policies, and court cases in the evolution of civil rights, including Dred Scott v. Sandford, Plessy v. Ferguson, Brown v. Board of Education, Regents of the University of California v. Bakke, and California Proposition 209. 11.10.4 — Examine the roles of civil rights advocates (e.g., A. Philip Randolph, Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, Thurgood Marshall, James Farmer, Rosa Parks), including the significance of Martin Luther King, Jr. ‘s “Letter from Birmingham Jail” and “I Have a Dream” speech. 3 2. CENTRAL HISTORICAL QUESTION: Considering issues of race, housing, and the struggle for civil rights in post-World War II Los Angeles, how valid is the statement from some in the African American community looking back: “We got what we wanted, but we lost what we had”? Before WWII: • 1940s and 1950s - Segregation in housing. • Shelley v. Kraemer, 1948 and Barrows vs. Jackson, 1953 – U.S. Supreme Court decisions abolish. • Map activities - Internet-based research on the geographic and demographic movements of the African American community in Los Angeles. • Locating homes of prominent African Americans. • Shift of African Americans away from central city to middle-class communities outside of the ghetto, resulting in a poorer and more segregated central city. -

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Masks in Disguise: Exposing Minstrelsy and Racial Representation within American Tap Dance Performances of the Stage, Screen, and Sound Cartoon, 1900-1950 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance by Brynn Wein Shiovitz 2016 © Copyright by Brynn Wein Shiovitz 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Masks in Disguise: Exposing Minstrelsy and Racial Representation within American Tap Dance Performances of the Stage, Screen, and Sound Cartoon, 1900-1950 by Brynn Wein Shiovitz Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Susan Leigh Foster, Chair Masks in Disguise: Exposing Minstrelsy and Racial Representation within American Tap Dance Performances of the Stage, Screen, and Sound Cartoon, 1900-1950, looks at the many forms of masking at play in three pivotal, yet untheorized, tap dance performances of the twentieth century in order to expose how minstrelsy operates through various forms of masking. The three performances that I examine are: George M. Cohan’s production of Little Johnny ii Jones (1904), Eleanor Powell’s “Tribute to Bill Robinson” in Honolulu (1939), and Terry- Toons’ cartoon, “The Dancing Shoes” (1949). These performances share an obvious move away from the use of blackface makeup within a minstrel context, and a move towards the masked enjoyment in “black culture” as it contributes to the development of a uniquely American form of entertainment. In bringing these three disparate performances into dialogue I illuminate the many ways in which American entertainment has been built upon an Africanist aesthetic at the same time it has generally disparaged the black body. -
Johnny Roventini: Call for Philip Morris
Johnny Roventini: Call for Philip Morris http://www.lucyfan.com/johnnyroventini.html An abbreviated version of the following story originally appeared in the Winter 1998/99 issue of our club newsletter. It chronicles Lucille Ball's long association with the Philip Morris company and profiles its "living mascot," Johnny Roventini. While it is not our policy to "editorialize," we admit to having mixed emotions about this topic: we acknowledge that I Love Lucy might never have happened had it not been for Philip Morris' sponsorship of the show, but we also find it hard to forget that both Desi Arnaz (in 1986) and Lucy's second husband, Gary Morton (in 1989), died of lung cancer... Or that Lucy herself died (in 1989) of heart disease. Both ailments have long been linked to smoking. When CBS and Desilu completed the pilot for I Love Lucy in March, 1951, everyone assumed General Foods, the sponsor of Lucille Ball's radio show, would buy it. GF, instead, quickly turned it down -- and the network hawked the project up and down Madison Avenue, hoping to find another sponsor. Finally, advertising mogul Milton Biow bought the show for his client, Philip Morris cigarettes. The tobacco company would sponsor I Love Lucy exclusively from its premiere on October 15, 1951, through Christmas of 1954, then share sponsorship through June of 1955 with Procter and Gamble. From the beginning, Philip Morris made I Love Lucy its own. It commissioned artists in New York to create animated stick figures of Lucy and Desi that would interact with Johnny Roventini, the diminutive bellboy who for nearly two decades had been belting out PM's advertising slogan, "Cal-l-l for-r-r Phil-lip Mor-ray-ssss," Indeed, Johnny's voice and/or face was often the first thing one heard/saw on Monday evening as I Love Lucy opened: 1 of 7 3/9/2013 8:57 AM Johnny Roventini: Call for Philip Morris http://www.lucyfan.com/johnnyroventini.html Like the series itself, Roventini owed his fame to Milton Biow. -

He also played roles in the growth of broadcast media, most notably helping Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz with the initial success of their innovative I Love Lucy comedy series beginning in 1951.
