Let’s get into it what is Juneteenth? “In 1865, enslaved African Americans were notified of their freedom by Union troops in Galveston Bay, Texas two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. Known as #Juneteenth, this day is widely celebrated as the end of chattel slavery in the U.S.” - @smithsonian Juneteenth is not the time for Non-Black people, to commodify, monetize, tokenize or appropriate. It’s not for you to center yourself in a movement you never put any labor or work into! We are in the middle of the biggest black civil rights movement in world history move with us or be moved aside. #blacklivesmatter #juneteenth #allofusornoneofus #pinup #politicalpinup #blackpinup #blackburlesque #blackandproud #selfportrait #ashleeta #vintagestylenotvintagevalues #respectabilitypoliticswillnotsaveyou https://www.instagram.com/p/CBoYpJLpCZj/?igshid=1bhlmjudcfvkp

MAY 19   GILDED LILY BURLESQUE: IT’S ABOUT TO GET WEIRD

The history of #burlesque is always on topic at @burlesquehall ! #Repost @burlesquehall with @get_repost ・・・ Coralie Jnr was the Hollywood Agent for Burlesque and a breakthrough for African American performers in the late 1950’s. She had over 500 women of colour on her books including living Legend Toni Elling who said ‘she fought for a lot of us girls and it could be rough in certain venues if you were black back then’ . Coralie sought to battle the 'book white ’ burlesque ethic and was interviewed by board member @neilnezkendall in 2014 shortly before her death . This image is one of many hopefuls who graced Coralies books and is in his collection #blackhistorymonth #coraliejnr #blackburlesque #blackhistory #vintagedancer
