' true inwardness of his soul. It
is pitched in the militant key but
in plaintive and wailing tone as of
a race which would sue rather (
than fight for its rights. The mu-|
sic is rfitted to the words by his'
collaborater J. Rosamond Johnson,1
his brother by temperament and
i_ genius as well as blood. The fame
of the Johnson brothers, James |
. Weldun, arid J. Rosamond, will go'
down bracketed in_histoi-y; and^
although-James Weldon is exhibit-!
ed as the frontispiece, yet their)
fame can no more be disserved
tktP that Qjlbcirt and Spllivan.
James?Weldon Johnson was by j
nature a reclus<> and never deigned
to "mix with crowds and J<eep his
virtue."
Her was accepted into service a9
field secretary of the National Association
for the Advancement of
Colored People. Although he served
in this capacity with intelligence,
courage, tact, ami resourcefulness,
yet one was constantly im
pressed- with the thought that hel
was impressed into a field of ser-|
vice for which he was not fitted
by nature or inclination. Militancy
and agitation engaged the energies
of his head rather than jxi h i s
heart. Unlike DuBois (of the ear?
lier days) and Walter White, he
P never gave himself full abandon
and self detachment to- the strug- 1
1 gle for the political and civil right |
of his race. Indeed IKe years J
which he devoted to the "leadership
of this militant organization were 1
K.?+ *%rt iATlflnrlo and one mierht '
say a strange interlude between !
the earlier and later'stages of his 1
career. \Ve first discover him as a 1
partner of Cole and Johnson au- J
thor of "Rag Music" then in voguetypified
by "Under the Bamboo *
Tree." Ijp the reclining: years of j
his leisure, we Jfind him n digni- J
fied professor of Creative Litera- '
ture in two American Universities 1
one black aftd one.white. Thus '
both ends of his career contrast
with the middle.

were oath-bound to offset the industrial
pi ojmganua of Booker TV >
Washington. William Monroe Trot ,
ter, George Forbes and William
H." Lewis, were the leaders of this
cabal. 'By shrewd political finesse
cue wizard of Tuskegee sought to <
wean Johnson and Lewis from
their hostile alignment by oering
them the allurements of ' "office. ,
Johnson was appointed to an important
post in the Consular Service;
he accepted the assignment
and served efficiently until replaced
by a democratic administration
He then entered the service of the
NAACP, which was anti-Washmgton
in origin, spirit and objctive.
However, under the guiding hand
of Joel E. Spingarn, this militant
originator did not dramatize its
hostility to the great industrial!
leader by violent controversy and I
voral antagonism. It must be said
fur James Weldon Johnson that
he was never Mr. Washington's
bitter or violent opponent. There
was no bitterness in his nature. It
is this which made bim so readly
acceptable to the white race. <
. James Weldon Johnson was not ]
a poet per se or par excellence ,
like Paul Lawrence Dunbar. He |
+nigbt?fairly be called a literary dilettante
scribbling prose or verse 1
as . the mood or the occasion re- <
quired. He wrote coon songs, for <
minstrel shows, librettos for light ^
opera, the Neero National Anthem ^
or God's Trombones, as the spirit
moved/him or opportunity presented
itself. His Ex-Colored Man, was r
not his own auto-biography but
that of 'Douglas Wetmore, h i s
hcon companion, who played the c
iouble racial role both simultan; v
eously and at different times. s
C,od,'s Trombones, usually regarded
its his masterpiece,* was but a c
translation in literary form of the
incturization of the Hebrew Scrip- e
ture* an art which he learned from
lis father who was a typical Bap- ^
:ist of the* older Evangelistical
type. His poetic genius reaches its '
lighest peak in "The White Witch v
ftides Tonie-ht." in which he ad- 1
nonishes Harlemites of the danger ^
lit of their besetting sin.
James Weldon Johnson's repuation
as a poet and a literary man '

yet accused the Negro Theatre of
supplying less than a thrilling ev^_

Haitian chants with such fidelity,

of "Haiti," and in'this group
no single memoer nas done oetter
work than Nancy Hunt.
? The story Of Nancy Hunt's first
big break in show business can
safely be put down to extreme
good fortune, ers is the story of
how a you.ng Negro girl attending
"George Washington High School
in New York got a chance to sing
_ on the school's glpe club and soon
afterwards won a scholarship from
the Damrosch School of Music and
Art in New York. . .

Member of the Choir in the WPA

much of her success to a scholarship
she received while a schoolgirl.

to be a nurse or a doctor, but
instead, the .talented Nancy ran
the gamut of the entire theatrical
sphere, winding up as dancer, across
and singer,
After fraduntmtr from a-Brooklyn
public ^choor, Nancy attended
St. Mary's Boarding School in Ger
mnntown, Pa. Leaving that school
she matriculated at iGeorge Wash
ington High School, wheye she \yon
the scholarship that is directly responsible
for her being in the theatrical
profession.
After fiinishing her course at
the Damrosch School, Nancy pursued
with fierce energy her chosen
career in the thatre. W. C. Handy
gave her an opportunity, when he
made her a member of his famous
this group was so excellent that
Donald Heywood gave .her a job
the next season in his own choir.
The Heywood choir was part of
the Negro play, "Old Man Satan,"
which enjoyed great success o n
Broadway a few seasons back.
Still forging ahead, the ambitious
Nancy, by this time thorough
ly experienced, shattered the belief
that Negroep cannot become
firmly entrenched in the theatrical
profession.
- 'During the war in Ethiopia a
film depicting scenes in the wartorn
country was shown at the
Harlem Opera House, in conjunction
with an African dance gr'o""o
which interpreted primitive African
dancing, and was admitted t<?
the group as a full-fledged African
dancer. ? - ?
Nancy tells of a very interesting
experience while appearing as an
African dancer at the Harlem Opera
House. "Along with other
rrtnmKnrc f V?A f ntnon r?rApm I
had strict orders from the manage
ment not to utter a single word
of English while appearing as an
African. For days and days, Momodu
Johnson, African Chie?tain_ahdorganizer
Sf the group, schooled
me in a kind of African jargon.
"I was doing, very nicely as an
African, until one day a friend
recognized me and came backstage
I had just finished mv act, and
was on my way to my dressing
room, when I heard some one calling,
'ITey Nancy!' Forgetting for
the moment that I was supposed
to be an African, I answered hack
'Hello there Sue!' to the astonishment
nf stagehands and other mem
he?-s of cast, who were not supposed
to he Africans."
After the engagement at the
Harlem Onern House the entire
"Bassa Moona" ran successfully at
the Lafayette Theatre and later on , R
Broadway. ^
