In his unapologetically candid voice, he moves from African ancestry and surviving the Middle Passage to the creation of the Jheri Curl, the enjoyment of bacon and everything pig, the headline-making shootings of black men, and the Black Lives Matter movement. A captivating journey through time, Defining Moments in Black History explores historical movements such as The Great Migration and the Harlem Renaissance, as well as cultural touchstones such as Sidney Poitier winning the Best Actor Oscar for Lilies in the Field and Billie Holiday releasing Strange Fruit. 521 1 Adult|bBrodart. 650 0 African Americans|xHistory. 650 0 African Americans|xCivil rights|xHistory. 650 0 Black nationalism|zUnited States|xHistory. 650 0 Civil rights|zUnited States|xHistory.
