Johnson's Curriculum Vitae -- Further reading -- Index."The life of Howard Johnson, nicknamed "Stretch" because of his height (6'5"), epitomizes the cultural and political odyssey of a generation of African Americans who transformed the United States from a closed society to a multiracial democracy. Johnson's long-awaited memoir traces his path from firstborn of a multiclass/multiethnic" family in New Jersey to dancer in Harlem's Cotton Club to communist youth leader and, later, professor of Black studies. A Dancer in the Revolution is a powerful statement about Black resilience and triumph amid subtle and explicit racism in the United States. Johnson's engaging, beautifully written memoir provides a window into everyday life in Harlem--neighborhood life, arts and culture, and politics--from the 1930's to the 1970's, when the contemporary Black community was being formed. A Dancer in the Revolution explores Johnson's twenty-plus years in the Communist Party and illuminates in compelling detail how the Harlem branch functioned and flourished in the 1930's and '40's. Johnson thrived as a charismatic leader, using the connections he built up as an athlete and dancer to create alliances between communist organizations and a cross-section of the Black community. In his memoir, Johnson also exposes the homoerotic tourism that was a feature of Harlem's nightlife in the 1930's. Some of America's leading white literary, musical, and artistic figures were attracted to Harlem not only for the community's artistic creativity but to engage in illicit sex--gay and straight--with their Black counterparts. A Dancer in the Revolution is an invaluable contribution to the literature on Black political thought and pragmatism. It reveals the unique place that Black dancers and artists hold in civil rights pursuits and anti-racism campaigns in the United States and beyond. Moreover, the life of "Stretch" Johnson illustrates how political activism engenders not only social change but also personal fulfillment, a realization of dreams not deferred but rather pursued and achieved. Johnson's journey bears witness to critical periods and events that shaped the Black condition and American society in the process"--Provided by publisher.Empire State EditionsCommunistsUnited StatesBiographySocial reformersUnited StatesBiographyTap dancersUnited StatesBiographyElectronic books.CommunistsSocial reformersTap dancers324.273/75092Johnson Howard Eugene1915-2000,1033429Johnson WendyMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464400203321A dancer in the revolution2451981UNINA02141nam0 22003973i 450 PUV007448120231121125608.02222021820ITS9-1754 19970722d1978 ||||0itac50 bafreitaengfrz01i xxxe z01n˜Les œceramiques de la Grèce de l'Est et leur diffusion en OccidentCentre Jean Berard, Institut Français de Naples6-9 juillet 1976ParisEditions du Centre national de la recherche scientifiqueNaplesCentre Jean Berard1978367 p., CLI p. di tav.ill.31 cmBibliothèque de l'Institut français de Naples. - 2. sér4Colloques internationaux du Centre national de la recherche scientifique569001CFI00110702001 Bibliothèque de l'Institut français de Naples. -*Bibliothèque de l'Institut français de Naples. 2. sér471202Institut français de NaplesCFIV006911001RAV00033702001 Colloques internationaux du Centre national de la recherche scientifique569Ceramiche grecheDiffusioneFIRRMLC420714ICeramica grecaOccidenteDiffusioneFIRRMLC140448I738.3093821Centre Jean BérardCFIV012815ITIT-0119970722IT-RM028 IT-RM0418 IT-RM0285 IT-FR0017 Biblioteca Universitaria AlessandrinaRM028 BIBLIOTECA ACCADEMIA NAZ.
