Ramona Isabella & Ethel Johnson vs Babs Wingo & Marva Scott 1950's femal...

[siscosfavoritecomics]

I wanted to honor #BlackHistoryMonth by highlighting some of the African American/Black Pro Wrestling pioneers and legends. For today's post I wanted to spotlight the third of famed Black Women's wrestling sisters The "African Black Cat" Marva Scott (November 21, 1937 - August 15th, 2003.)

Scott was the youngest sister of Babs Wingo and Ethyl Johnson. And as it was with her sisters, she was trained by legendary Women's Champion Mildred Burke.

Aside from her working with and against her sisters and other Black women talent, there isn't much else about her that I could find. I'll update if I find anything else out.

Open for bootleg trading~

Hello all! I am posting my bootleg list here for now as a temporary list until I get my website up and running- I am open to trading! I’m mainly looking for any Cats production- preferably English or Dutch but any musical would be nice to have and expand my collection.

NOTES: Video quality isn't the best, and audio is sometimes on the softer side. Still a very entertaining show.

Anastasia - Broadway - September 6, 2017

FORMAT: (VOBs w/ smalls)

CAST: Christy Altomare (Anastasia), Derek Klena (Dmitry), John Bolton (Vlad), Ramin Karimloo (Gleb), Caroline O'Connor (Lily), Mary Beth Peil (Maria Feodorovna), Zach Adkins, Sissy Bell, Lauren Blackman, Kyle Brown, Janet Dickinson, Constantine Germanacos, Wes Hart, Ken Krugman, Shina Ann Morris, James A. Pierce III, Molly Rushing, Nicole Scimerca, Johnny Stellard, Allison Walsh (Ensemble)

Format: VOB + smalls (7.58 GB)

Format: .VOB w/ smalls

NOTES: Two days before the show closed on Broadway. Good amount of closeups and good quality filmed from the mid-mezzanine; there is a railing issue for a while in Act 1 but the taper improves. 'Me', 'Gaston' and 'Be Our Guest' are all predominantly missing and recording stopped for some time after 'Gaston', which created a little jump in the timeline to where Maurice gets thrown out of the tavern. Still a nice video with great closeups of the last Broadway cast.

If you’re interested, please don’t hesitate to contact me! Like I said I would love any cats bootleg- especially the older ones in English and Dutch from like the 80′s till the 00′s. I am also looking for more diversity in my list- and I’m also looking for the classics- Dear Evan Hansen, Falsetto’s, some more Phantom Of the Opera, Mean Girls, Legally Blond, etc...

CELEBRATE BLACK HISTORY MONTH ! “GORDON PARKS: THE NEW TIDE, EARLY WORK 1940-1950″ OPENS TODAY AT THE ADDISON GALLERY OF AMERICAN ART IN ANDOVER, MA Miss Rosen for AnOther

Gordon Parks (1912–2006) was a singular figure in every sense of the word, transcending every boundary foisted upon him as a black man coming of age in Jim Crow America. Now, Gordon Parks: The New Tide, Early Work 1940–1950, a new exhibition in Washington, looks back at the groundbreaking first decade of his career, during which he rose to become the first African-American photographer at LIFE magazine.

Hailing from Fort Scott, Kansas, Parks decided to become a photographer while working as a waiter in a railroad dining car and looking through discarded copies of magazines like Vogue and Look. At the age of 25, Parks purchased a Voigtländer Brilliant, which he later called his “choice of weapon”, and taught himself to become a professional portrait photographer and photojournalist.

La Vida del Cazador

Me paso solo para dejaros un pequeño y adorable drabble basado en la canción My Town, de Dylan Scott. (941 palabras) Canción 7 de la Deluxe Edition

La del cazador es una vida solitaria. Sam Winchester lo sabía. Había aprendido tiempo atrás a no sentir apego por nadie. Todo lo que tenía era a su hermano y el Impala y había aprendido a aceptar que eso era todo lo que iba a tener. Vale que él no había sabido de la existencia de monstruos y criaturas que acechan en la noche hasta que fue mayor de lo que Dean era cuando lo descubrió, pero eso no significaba que Sam hubiera tenido una infancia. Nunca tuvo un hogar. Nunca echó raíces.

Y había aprendido a vivir así.

A lo mejor era más fácil así, pensaba a menudo. Sin memoria de su madre, sin nostalgia del dormitorio de su infancia. Nunca echaba de manos los días fáciles de su pasado, porque nunca los tuvo en primer lugar. Los amigos que había hecho a lo largo de la vida, tenían tendencia a morir de forma horrible.

Así es como eran las cosas.

Así era la vida del cazador.

Solitaria, fría y solitaria.

Y Sam lo había aceptado. Había tratado de salir de ella, pero era imposible. Una vez que estabas dentro, lo estabas para siempre. No había forma de escapar. Cada persona a la que habías sonreído, tenía de repente una diana pintada en la espalda.

Pero eso cambió en cuanto la conoció a ella.

La cazadora de ojos brillantes, flores en el tapizado del asiento de su VW Escarabajo, y una sonrisa asesina.

Dean la había arrinconado en su taburete para invitarla a una cerveza y una conversación y con eso había bastado. Tras un par de cazas y unas cuantas conversaciones telefónicas, abandonó el Escarabajo en favor del asiento de atrás del Impala, ya que ninguno de los Winchester cabía en su coche.

“He encontrado una caza.” Se coló en la habitación del hotel de los chicos una mañana y deslizó la tablet por la mesa. Sam y Dean recorrieron los artículos de la pantalla mientras ella seguía hablando. “Si nos vamos en diez minutos llegaremos a las ocho de la noche, que es la hora de la pausa del restaurante de Ed. La comida es para morirse. Las Mejores Hamburguesas de la Tierra, pensarás que has ido a parar al cielo.

“¿Mejores que las de ese sitio en Ozarks? Cielo, tienes que estar loca.”

Levantó la ceja hacia Dean y se puso las manos en las caderas. “No te atrevas a insultar mi ciudad, Dean. Sé de lo que estoy hablando. Ahora ve a hacer las maletas porque tengo que educarte en eso de las hamburguesas.”

Sam miró atrás por quinta vez en la última hora. Estaba acurrucada en el asiento de atrás, empapándose del escenario vacío que era el sur de Wyoming con una media sonrisa feliz en su rostro.

“Así qué, ¿creciste aquí?”

“Nacida y criada.”  Finalmente apartó la mirada de las plantas de artemisa y miró a Sam. “Solía odiarlo. Era demasiado pequeño, demasiado feo… No había nada que hacer. Me tuve que mudar fuera para darme cuenta de que no hay nada como el hogar.”

Parpadeó al mirar por el parabrisas y se movió hasta que su cabeza quedo situada entre los dos asientos de los Winchesters. “¿Veis esa salida de allí? Si la tomas y conduces unos sesenta y cinco km, verás un camino de tierra a la derecha que puedes seguir durante otros cuarenta y cinco km y llegarás a donde están los mejores senderos para recorrer con todoterrenos. Llévate a unos amigos, fuegos artificiales y nubes de azúcar y a mirar las estrellas… no habrás visto nunca una noche tan perfecta.”

Sam recordó la noche que la vio por primera vez y pensó que sería una buena contendiente.

En poco tiempo, estaba guiando a Dean por las calles que dirigían a un pequeño restaurante en las afueras de la ciudad. El parking estaba casi lleno y Sam levantó la ceja. “Creí que habías dicho que llegaríamos a la hora de la pausa.”

“Esta es la pausa, cielo. Además, el parking es bastante pequeño, así que es un poco engañoso. Podremos encontrar un asiento vacío, casi seguro. Pero querremos sentarnos en la barra.” Bajó la voz con naturalidad hasta hablar con el acento lento y arrastrado del oeste. Sam lo había notado aflorar un poco en un par de conversaciones que había mantenido con otra gente, pero nunca lo había escuchado en su pleno apogeo hasta ahora.

En cuanto entró en el pequeño edificio, una mujer mayor con un delantal se acercó hacia ellos con una amplia sonrisa. “¡Aquí esta mi pequeña y dulce Chica del Centeno!”

“Marva, ¡ha pasado una barbaridad de tiempo!”

“¿Y de quién es la culpa?” la camarera la miró fijamente, pero ella simplemente sonrió y le dio a la mujer un abrazo. “Vale, cielo, estas perdonada, pero solo si me presentas a estos dos amigos tuyos tan guapos.”

Tras las presentaciones, Marva les llevó hasta el mostrador para que se sentaran. Estuvieron allí, en el mostrador, durante horas, riéndose y hablando con todo el mundo. Literalmente todo el mundo. Las conversaciones se movían desde los taburetes del mostrador hasta los asientos de las mesas y a la cocina que había en la parte de atrás. No había conversaciones privadas. Todo el mundo parecía saber quienes eran los demás, incluida T/N. Y ella no había vivido allí en años. Y aún así, era una cara familiar.

Sam siempre pensó que la vida del cazador era una carretera larga, solitaria y llena de polvo.

Pero ella le estaba enseñando una clase diferente de carretera sucia y desolada. Una con rostros amigables, señales de stop conocidas y amor del sencillo.

While I love wrestling, I have to admit it’s just recently that I’ve begun researching in order to know more about the female pioneers of the sport, past the Fabulous Moolah and more recently Mildred Burke. Sisterhood of the Squared Circle: The History and Rise of Women’s Wrestling is a good resource, by the way. In the Mildred Burke chapter, (Ethel Johnson, Marva Scott, Babs Wingo, Louise Greene, Kathleen Wimberly and Ramona Isbell are mentioned) You can cut your eyes at me when I say women had more obstacles having and maintaining careers as professional wrestlers in the Western World but on some level you, too, know it’s true.

Some of my favorite entertainers in the ring from my childhood included women of color like the biracial badass, ultimate heel (and queen of my heart forever) Aja Kong. I remember the pride I had seeing Jacqueline win the WWE Women’s Championship when it was reintroduced in 1998 (the first!) and then the cruiser-weight title belt later. (do you remember the dab she did before accepting her place in the WWE hall of fame?! ICON.) There was also Midnight with her gorgeous bodybuilder physique, who often came around with Booker T and Stevie Ray when they were better known together as Harlem Heat.

Sapphire and (Queen!) Sharmell who worked the scene as managers in different eras of wrestling for Dusty Rhodes and Booker, who also saw some ring action. I think about later on Awesome Kong dominating everywhere she went, Alicia Fox being the first and only African American woman to hold the WWE Diva’s championship, with Naomi being the first African American woman to win a WWE title at Wrestlemaina, Sasha Banks is one of the best heels in the business and Ember Moon killing it at everything she does.

On the indie scene Marti Belle, Nicole Savoy are women you should enjoy watching, alongside the “Blasian Assassin”, Mya Yim. Oh and Brandi Rhodes?! YASSSS. I’m a newer fangirl of Kiera Hogan and would channel her super kick any day all day if I could. Faye Jackson is fun to watch too and she memes herself! I LIVE! There is a legacy of Black women doing the damn thing in wrestling and there is finally a documented effort via film that explores the pioneers that set the foundation. I’m excited. You should be excited. We all should be excited. When I saw a trailer for this film I knew I had to write about it.

A new film explores the role of black women recruited as professional wrestlers in the 1950s and 1960s. Lady Wrestler: The Amazing, Untold Story of African-American Women in the Ring is a 90-minute documentary that chronicles the stories of Babs Wingo, Ethel Johnson, Marva Scott, Ramona Isbell and dozens of other African-American women who braved racism and sexism in the 1950s, '60s and '70s to succeed in the male-dominated world of professional wrestling.

I wanted to honor #BlackHistoryMonth by highlighting some of the African American/Black Pro Wrestling pioneers and legends. For today's post I wanted to shed light on the woman who is known as the First Lady of African American Wrestling: Ethyl Johnson (May 14, 1935 - September 14, 2018.)

Trained by legendary Women's champion Mildred Burke, Johnson (with her two sisters Babs Wingo and Marva Scott) is considered the first true African American women's wrestling superstar. Billed as “The biggest attraction to hit girl wrestling since girl wrestling began!” Johnson would face off against not only her fellow African American women's wrestlers but also matched up against white women including her trainer Mildred Burke for the Women's Championship.

Johnson's repertoire included a standing dropkick and a flying head scissors, moves not seen from many wrestlers during this era both male and female. Not only was she an amazing athlete, she was seen as a sex symbol as a pinup.

She would continue to working for such companies as Big Time Wrestling, Capitol Wrestling Corporation (WWWF) and finally the American Wrestling Association. Her last match came in 1976 against her younger sister Marva Scott. She would be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2021.

Cicely Tyson, atriz vencedora do Emmy e Tony, morre aos 96 anos

Cicely Tyson, atriz americana que se especializou em retratar mulheres negras fortes, morreu aos 96 anos nesta quinta-feira (28).

A informação foi divulgada pelo empresário dela, Larry Thompson, em um comunicado. A causa da morte não foi informada.

Cicely foi indicada ao Oscar por “Sounder” (“Lágrimas de Esperança”), de 1972, em que fez uma elogiada interpretação da mulher de um homem condenado à prisão por um crime pouco significativo.

No entanto, só levou a estatueta para casa em 2018, quando foi premiada com um Oscar honorário. Foi a primeira atriz negra a receber a homenagem.

Ela ganhou dois Emmys pelo filme “The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman”, um de melhor atriz em minissérie ou filme e outro de atriz do ano. O filme de 1974 cobriu a vida de uma mulher desde a escravidão até os anos 1960.

Vinte anos depois, ganhou outro Emmy por “Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All”.

Ao longo da carreira, recebeu outras nove indicações ao Emmy, entre elas pelas interpretações de Binta, a mãe da escrava Kunta Kinte na inovadora minissérie de 1977 “Roots” (“Raízes”), a esposa do reverendo Martin Luther King Jr., Coretta, em “King” e a educadora inspiradora em ” A história de Marva Collins”.

Em 2011, fez parte do aclamado filme “The Help” e em 2013, aos 88 anos, ganhou um Tony por uma remontagem da Broadway de “The Trip to Bountiful”, a história de uma mulher que volta para a sua pequena cidade natal.

Em 2015, estrelou com James Earl Jones em um revival da Broadway da peça “The Gin Game”. O New York Times disse que Tyson e Jones provaram “que um grande talento não tem idade”.

Em fevereiro de 2019, aos 94 anos, a atriz posou para a capa da revista Time e um entrevistador perguntou se ela pensava em se aposentar. “E fazer o que?” foi a resposta.

Cicely dizia tratar de questões importantes para ela, como raça e gênero, por meio de sua carreira.

Ela afirmou em entrevista à CBS que enxergava a hierarquia de Hollywood como uma escada com homens brancos no topo, seguidos por mulheres brancas e homens negros. As mulheres negras estavam por baixo.

Nascida em Nova York, ela cresceu no Harlem e foi secretária e modelo antes de começar a atuar. Foi uma das primeiras atrizes negras a aparecer regularmente na televisão dos Estados Unidos, interpretando a secretária de George C. Scott na série “East Side, West Side”.

Cicely foi casada com a lenda do jazz Miles Davis de 1981 a 1988 e Davis, que morreu em 1991, a colocou na capa de seu álbum “Sorcerer”.

O casamento deles foi difícil, perturbado por relatos de sua suposta traição, violência doméstica e abuso de drogas. Mas em uma entrevista de 2015 para a CBS, ela disse: “Eu realmente não falo sobre isso, mas direi o seguinte: valorizo ​​cada momento que tive com ele.”

Seu empresário contou que ela pensava em suas memórias como uma árvore de Natal decorada com todos os enfeites de sua vida pessoal e profissional.

“Hoje ela colocou o último enfeite, uma estrela, no topo da árvore ”, afirmou.

A atriz Viola Davis, que atuou com Cicely na série “How to Get Away with Murder” (“Como Defender um Assassino”), de 2015 a 2020, disse ter ficado devastada com a notícia da morte.

“Você era tudo para mim!”, escreveu no Instagram. “Você me fez sentir amada, vista e valorizada em um mundo onde ainda existe uma capa de invisibilidade para nós, meninas do chocolate escuro.”
