YES! YES! YES! Josephine was truly a master. A woman well ahead of her time. Please continue these posts! @Bronze – Josephine was seen as terribly scandalous by many in her day too.

Where are these black women today. Why are all of our women hood rats, jump-offs and angry birds?????? Where are the classy, global minded women who are proud to be black? What happened?

i love josephine, but just look at that video and the message it shows if you really watch it with wisely. Shes a black girl in a jungle, dancing in a very animalesc way. Theres black men sitted there with very little clothes that remind me of slavery and dont forget the fact that they working while a white man walks next to them. What are they trying to portray? We have to be aware for the fact that sometimes the succes and talent of a black person was/is used as a tool to portray sometimes directly and other times in a subliminaly the bad vision or the feeling of superiority that some races have about the blacks. Ps: sorry for my bad english.

Really enjoyed this post and all the wonderful photographs. Don’t forget that Josephine hair-with the fingerwaves came back hard in the late 80′s, early 90′s. And the length, still resonates today in Black womens’ style.
