On Broadway, Jackson most recently starred in Encore’s production of The Most Happy Fella at City Center, following acclaimed performances in Finian’s Rainbow, Damn Yankees, Xanadu, Thoroughly Modern Millie and All Shook Up. Off-Broadway he was seen in the original cast of Altar Boyz. In concert, Jackson has sold-out Carnegie Hall twice: The Power of Two in 2010 with Michael Feinstein, followed by his solo debut concert with the NY Pops Music of the Mad Men Era in 2011. The Power of Two was hailed by the New York Times as “passionate,” “impeccably harmonized,” and “groundbreaking.” Music of the Mad Men Era was lauded by the NY Daily News, which said, “Cheyenne Jackson has got it all and he showed it all: the voice, the moves, the quirky self-effacing humor.

  • The Harlem Renaissance African-Americans After the Civil War • up Until the Civil War, African Americans Lived in the United States As Slaves
    Unit #4: The Changing Face of America (1890 – 1920s) Part 3: The Harlem Renaissance African-Americans after the Civil War • Up until the Civil War, African Americans lived in the United States as slaves. • After the war and the Emancipation Proclamation, African Americans had to shatter the stereotypes projected upon them by their slave ancestry. • They were seen as individuals who were incompetent and docile, and they were viewed as an inferior race, especially intellectually. • The nation gave African Americans this unpopular image, and unfortunately, many African Americans believed it. Rise of the “Black Movement” • Due to the systematic oppression that African Americans as a whole suffered from after the Civil War, many also suffered from self-hatred and low self- esteem. • They were so devalued that they began to internalize the stigma placed upon them by the broader European society. • It wasn't until the rise of the Black Movement, otherwise known as the Harlem Renaissance, did the African American begin to fully liberate himself from society's standards. • It was during this period of time in the 1920s that the "New Negro" emerged and racial identity became the popular topic of many African-American authors. Background of the Harlem Renaissance • African American artists, writers, musicians, and performers were all part of this great cultural movement called the Harlem Renaissance. • After World War I many African Americans migrated from the rural South to the urban North. This movement is called “The Great Migration.” • African Americans of all ages and walks of life moved to the thriving New York City neighborhood called Harlem.
