#Dance | Shirley Temple and Bill Robinson Tap Dancing on Stairs, 1935
https://youtube.com/watch?v=arkkGjDpa8E
WHEN Bill “Bojangles” Robinson tap danced his way up and down a set of stairs, hand-in-hand with child star Shirley Temple in the 1935 film The Little Colonel, he almost stole the show.
The scene made cinematic history as the first interracial dance pairing in a movie, but it also stirred controversy, being cut from the film when it was screened in America’s south.
Dexterous, energetic and always cheerful on stage and screen, offstage Robinson also worked to break down barriers for African-Americans.
