She used to live a block or two from USC college in South L.A. (32nd or 33rd street) and Clark Gable and she would eat brunch some sundays at that house That area was very nice in the 1930’s and 1940’s and famous blacks like: Eddie “Rochester”Anderson all lived there as well. Marvin Gaye died on that street.
It used to bother me that Ms Hattie McDaniels looked like a housekeeper or maid all the time until I think it was Halley Berry who said she probably was a maid because that was one of the only jobs they would give black women back in the days and Halley went on to say that Ms McDaniels was a maid who made it😊(I'm paraphrasing it from Halley's speech when she won her first Oscar) she dedicated it to Ms McDaniels and all the other fine actresses who paved the way 🥰❤️🖤💚
A TMC bio said Hattie was a vaudeville star touring with her family act, talkies came in (the audience abandoned vaudeville), so they headed out west. She worked as a domestic while answering cattle call auditions, and finally broke into film work portraying maids. In case anyone was wondering lol 😉
In response to those that objected to her always playing parts such as domestic servants Ms. McDaniels said: "I'd rather play a maid and make $700 a week than be a maid and make $7."
I used to be a live-in housekeeper/cook/nanny/chauffeur in the 1980’s-1990’s. I did end up doing a lot of work. Even tending to the pool and hot tub if the pool man couldn’t make it. Ironing, accounts payable (paying the gardener, home repair people, cleaners, shopping for the kids clothes, taking the kids to their doctors etc.) You start out with a few duties but these people become your family. They let my siblings live in my guest cottage and paid for all of our food, my gas card, provided me with a Datsun 280Z and gave me extra money two sundays out if a month to take groups of kids from Watts on outings to museums.
I love Ms. Hattie McDaniels and I wish I had known her personally. She had so much more to offer in spirit than anyone she ever co-starred with. Her spirit was loving, honest, and sincere, which came across in her works. She was genuine in heart and I long today for people who would be genuine in heart!
Definitely educational to discerning viewers of all ages....thank you so much. Black History is amazingly rich,and can give unlimited answers to " who, what, when and why." There should be no complaining about this era, when there's no complaints in today's world about the characters that are video THOTS, whores, manipulators, drug dealers, etc. These kinds of people are idolized by the masses,and are even given awards for their songs and music that blatantly loudly speak of sex, genitalia, etc... VERY sad.
I know what you mean. I had to stop watching and turn the sound off and just let the commercials run through to the end. She is so brilliant, but this show really dumps on her, more than even most of them.
It still happens today. EyE'm living proof. My family and friends want mi to be superwoman, however when EyE need them, every excuse in the book comes up. At times EyE want to be mean asf to them but my nature won't allow it. EyE get tired and frustrated. Smdh
Thank you for sharing these shows with us, Mike. Regular television never air them and that is a real shame. I am truly thankful to view this show and will share with family and friends.
No don't air these old mammy, shows now . If you get nostalgic, watch the Kardashian's Black friends , they are mammy's. They tell those Kardashian's common sense. I am a Black Female, I was asked in College to be a mammy to White girls, asking Me questions. I refused. When can I take my reusable, sustainable bag in to the grocery and stuff it in the aisles like Whites. You will say well, no one got together to make your grocery shopping racist. Obviously, the rich White Store owners did! I will be falsely accused of stealing, and go to jail, then lose my job. There are other examples, but that's enough for today. It's all planned, I can't grocery shop like you.
This, along with other content is super important for us to learn what was common in the past, see how we have persevered, and assess how much more work we need to do. Thank you @reelblack
It’s shameful that we were forced to endure such . I’m grateful that there are some changes in how we’re portrayed . We must work to ensure that things continue to move forward .
As a tall black with woman this makes me angry. This is why the world thinks we can be overworked and feel no no pain. This reminds me of office settings I've experienced
I love this...i see some stereotypes here but i also see trailblazing and allowing people like me to be soon as human beings. Plus they gave Beulah the most sense out of anybody on the show lol.
Thank you for posting this and Amos N Andy. It gave me an opportunity to watch these shows and form my own conclusions instead of going off of the opinions of others. I must say, as I look at the images of today's rappers and watch current TV shows targeted towards African Americans it seems like we have moved backwards. I'm more offended by the degrading and grossly violent lyrics in most rap songs than I would ever be by shows like this and Amos N Andy.
Beulah was an American situation comedy series that ran on CBS Radio from 1945 - 1954 and on ABC Television from 1950 - 1953 The show is notable for being the first sitcom to star an African-American actress for being ABC TV's first hit situation comedy, and the first hit TV sitcom without a laugh track.
Sounds like a lie. Do you really say 1 people can make 5 peoples job? Only possible if those 5 people work basically nothing. If you say everybody else is lazy except black women than you lying.
Is that not the same for most people? Shitty jobs are shitty jobs. Cleaning a house for a family with money can be decent as long as they are nice and pay properly. It's not like cleaning the public toilet.
You got it.when Trump said he wanted to make America 'great' again, he meant 'white' again.great is a white word anyways.like sugar frosted flakes are GREAT! But don't worry, they got a black cereal too...Coco Puffs. but, wouldn't you know it, you got to be coo coo for Coco Puffs .
Yeah you figure if they still had black maids, they weren't to far from slavery, that black man was not tryna act like he was usefut except to help her.
Even today, whenever they show a family on welfare, the news media always shows a black woman with like 10 kids from 11 different fathers. What they don't tell you is there are more white people on welfare than blacks.
I found this fun video from taking a quiz that asked who was the first African American Oscar winner. I guessed Sidney Poitier. I never heard of this amazingly talented actress Hattie McDaniel. I so enjoyed the show.
Did anyone else get increasinglh pissed off watching this? I was washing dishes n this came on autoplay. Wait! So the conclusion he came to was to give the GARDENER the raise. Poor Buelah
If we didn't have the mammy/aunt Jemima/maid archetype then the traditionally attractive black women wouldn't be able to thrive today. Also we talk about mammy character not being attractive or a threat to other women as if that's all women are for. We have a patriarchal mindset and dont even realize it. I bet mammies in real life never had trouble finding a man. Thanks for posting this. I actually like looking at old timey shows.
You obviously don't watch the Kardashian's Black Mammy ,Friends, they tell them common sense. I am a Black Female, In College, I was asked to be a mammy. The White Women wanted advice. I said no. Because I have to figure out my own life.
@@iloveloveloveableful I just hate how people give more heat to the people playing the mammy roles vs being upset with the directors, producers for only writing black women in those roles. That's why I'm happy we have spaces to create our 9wn narratives now and appreciated of people like Hattie, Ethel waters etc for having to choke own their pride to give us a chance.
Its funny how these 50s families were always dressed to the nines, even to mow or eat. Hattie McDaniel was a class act. She was a good friend of many. One of her closest friends was a future president, Ronald Reagan. He was Ronny to her. She died too young. LOL, they pile everything onto Beaulah. Which ones in our families do we pile things when times get tough?
Did Beulah live with the Henderson's? too bad they didn't have an Amos & Andy crossover. Hattie McDaniel was such a good actress, liked to have seen her in a different venue but that's the way it was back then.😊🎙🎵🎶
It is a shame that her work gets picked out for racism instead of her talent and that she has won awards. Same with Song of the South where the main lead won an award yet the films gets attacked and banned from being viewed on most stuff. I thought it was a good film about a relationship between a mentor and a pupil. I guess people have to be negative nancies.
@@LegendarySpaceRipper Yes, it’s a form of benign racism to criticize McDaniel for her career as a WORKING actress during the time when the Hollywood color bar was alive and kicking. As she supposedly once said, she’d rather act as a maid than be one. It’s an unnecessary burden to view the actress’s achievements through our modern sense of entitlement and politicized social media.
We all need to be careful not to judge these people of 1952 using 2021 values. All cultures and races felt and behaved very different than they do today.
I see no issue with it anyways. Plenty of shows that are like this. 2021 values is snitching on people in their gardens because covid and going through old tweets to ruin peoples careers and lives because they wrote something when they was ten. You can not even saying 'hello m'am' without being called sexist or transphobic or whatever. We go five steps forward and ten steps back.
Wow!! Hattie McDaniel and Louise Beavers, who took her place, both passed away on the same day, ten years apart. Ms. Hattie passed away on October 26, 1952; and, Ms. Louise passed on October 26, 1962.
This is what w-america loves. That's why if you notice they always put a big aunt j looking bw in every talk show alongside other ww to not take their shine
@@LawrinMaxwellsmpc500 What you say is true, but also add that we are our own worst enemies: always in search of a savior or saviors, expert at playing the victim, and readily giving ourselves over to be exploited by anyone else with quick scheme and a cute smile.
Seems most of us Mom's end up doing all the job's but we bring it on ourselves. We think no one will do it the way we want plus we think it is our responsibility to take care of our "flock" I admit, I'm guilty of this. LOL
Hattie McDaniel would have been wonderful in the movie "The Help" she was before her time......God Bless Her......she paved the way for future Black Actresses!!!! Black Women Been Taking Care Of Black Men and White Folks Since The Beginning Of Our Ancestors Arrival.....#1619❤🌹
She didn't exactly have lots of options. This clip is from the early 1950s. Truth is, not much has changed for us to bleat our chests over. Yes, cosmetically we're doing better, but not as much as we want to think. I salute Ms. McDaniel. What a superb performer.
Women have to stop being a Superwoman! Never get appreciation like that I know I was that woman 2021 raising 3 Sons by myself !!! Loving all and being less loved. Janice Harley
why is there no biopic on this legend as of today? iGabby Sidibé would be ideal to play her !I can't think of any actress other than Gabby at the moment
Jane Frazee was a successful, dancer and singer, and actress. She appeared in a Roy Rogers western, in true color b years s before she did this t.v show.l
this show was made when i was born! i am so glad to see it now. i luv it,i dont care about the negative comments. the actors are all very entertaining.
It's good they didn't have a dog...cause if I had been Beulah it would not have been cold cuts they'd be eating. I would have made an ALPO meatloaf to teach them a lesson.
Ah yes, the good old days. God was in his heaven, all was right with the world, and y'all knew your place. LOL! Enjoy the show, because this ain't never, ever happening again!!
I hope this episode proves the notion that "all people are obese nowadays and very few people were overweight a couple of generations ago" to be wrong once and for all.
It was sad that even with t.v that she still had to play a servant when she could have played a divorce court judge. She was that good. but that kind of t.v show would have been banned in the KKK south of the time.
I'm not saying this role was acceptable. It simply "was.' Another example of others "paving the way"... removing the rocks, stones,mountains, and boulders that were in the way Soooo... BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD....pave the path for someone else.... don't simply complain about it.
Wasn't that Dorothy Dandridge real life mother with the squeaky voice!? Remember the scene from her biopic, her at the movies on a date watching her mom play a mammie and her date insults the movie and her mom, unknowingly 🤣 and the roles are atrocious, this is what was plastered for the world to see on TV, ofcourse they think it's fair to see us as anything but us
I can’t believe this is what was considered “Good wholesome/Family TV” in 1952. *This is what white people say when they shout “Make America Great Again”* - Black people in subservient positions. This is extremely hard to watch because all they did was use Beulah and take advantage of her kindness. I love Hattie McDaniel and I see exactly why Monique always makes sure to mentions her. I can only imagine what Ms. McDaniel went through & how badly she was treated on set/off-camera....God rest her soul. ❤️🙏🏽👑
Yeah, it was also about people like Joe Biden, a draft dodger, who later wrote the terrible, oppressive drug laws and crime bills as a US Senator, which ended up imprisoning thousands upon thousands of black people for decades. Made crack cocaine punished 100x more than powdered cocaine. But hey, it's all cool, because Joe said if you don't vote for him "you ain't black"
Congress passed reparations right after the Civil War and President Lincoln no doubt would have signed it. Unfortunately, he was killed and the Vice President, a Democrat named Andrew Johnson, became president and vetoed it. The GOP congress later impeached Johnson, but he missed getting convicted by one vote.
What the point of reparations for those who never suffered under slavery? How far are we going back? We would all be giving each other reparations because all races have been slaves or slavers at some point. I give money to some random and then they give stuff back and then over and over. What if we tried to start out as our own person and stopped blaming our issues on stuff that happened before we were born. What is with people using their ancestors as a way to gain sympathy votes? That seems kind of pathetic. If my ancestor was injured in war, does that mean my entire life is affected because of it? No.
It's stupid to try to pass moral judgement on people who lived in a time and place where the moral judge was not even alive, had no experience of the environment of the times, and no knowledge of how people organized and conducted their lives. The living have no right to judge anything or anyone except themselves and those who coexist in the same world. Once you reject the urge to play moral judge of people and time that existed long before the present, you can look at old videos like this as mere pedestrian entertainment. These programs certainly had vastly more substance than, say, the idiotic "reality" shows all over TV and social media today.
Hattie McDaniel made gold out of everything she did.
Great shows! Hattie McDaniel is a national treasure. Hope we can see more Beulah episodes with her in them! Thanks for posting it.

@@Sylvonne given our country's history that's not saying much.
"Doesn't it? DOESN'T IT?!"
I hate this episode! She acted superbly in Gone with the Wind! This is beneath Hattie!
She didn't exactly have lots of options. This clip is from the early 1950s. Truth is, not much has changed for us to bleat our chests over. Yes, cosmetically we're doing better, but not as much as we want to think. I salute Ms. McDaniel. What a superb performer.
Women have to stop being a Superwoman! Never get appreciation like that I know I was that woman 2021 raising 3 Sons by myself !!! Loving all and being less loved. Janice Harley
Thank you for this show Janice Harley
why is there no biopic on this legend as of today? iGabby Sidibé would be ideal to play her !I can't think of any actress other than Gabby at the moment
I love Hattie, but goddamn I wanna wring those folks neck! She was better than me.
I was only 2 seconds old🎉❤
Jane Frazee was a successful, dancer and singer, and actress. She appeared in a Roy Rogers western, in true color b years s before she did this t.v show.l

The entrie show is disgusting
MY MOM WATCHED THIS
this show was made when i was born! i am so glad to see it now. i luv it,i dont care about the negative comments. the actors are all very entertaining.
agree
Bellulah is the closest thing to a leading role Hattie McDaniel had
Consider the time.
darn shame
BU"T@❤️🐦🌎
Lol 😆
It's good they didn't have a dog...cause if I had been Beulah it would not have been cold cuts they'd be eating. I would have made an ALPO meatloaf to teach them a lesson.
😂😂😂😂😂
Ah yes, the good old days. God was in his heaven, all was right with the world, and y'all knew your place. LOL! Enjoy the show, because this ain't never, ever happening again!!
Good old days for who, "F" that
@@soulbrutha23 Sarcasm...
@@greenbyrd3665 my bad. I be on these racist neck... have a great week. Stay safe
@@soulbrutha23 No worries. Trust me. I'm blackity, black, black, black!! Best believe, I ain't thinking those were really the good old days. LOL
@@soulbrutha23 lololol😁😁
I hope this episode proves the notion that "all people are obese nowadays and very few people were overweight a couple of generations ago" to be wrong once and for all.
It was sad that even with t.v that she still had to play a servant when she could have played a divorce court judge. She was that good. but that kind of t.v show would have been banned in the KKK south of the time.
People, please remember this is a scripted TV series based on the popular radio program. Lets leave it at that!!!
I'm not saying this role was acceptable. It simply "was.' Another example of others "paving the way"... removing the rocks, stones,mountains, and boulders that were in the way
Soooo... BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD....pave the path for someone else.... don't simply complain about it.
Beulah-AkA-Big Mama😅
Wasn't that Dorothy Dandridge real life mother with the squeaky voice!? Remember the scene from her biopic, her at the movies on a date watching her mom play a mammie and her date insults the movie and her mom, unknowingly 🤣 and the roles are atrocious, this is what was plastered for the world to see on TV, ofcourse they think it's fair to see us as anything but us
Yes that is Dorothy's mother! Great eye..
I can’t believe this is what was considered “Good wholesome/Family TV” in 1952.
*This is what white people say when they shout “Make America Great Again”* - Black people in subservient positions.
This is extremely hard to watch because all they did was use Beulah and take advantage of her kindness.
I love Hattie McDaniel and I see exactly why Monique always makes sure to mentions her.
I can only imagine what Ms. McDaniel went through & how badly she was treated on set/off-camera....God rest her soul. ❤️🙏🏽👑
Yeah, it was also about people like Joe Biden, a draft dodger, who later wrote the terrible, oppressive drug laws and crime bills as a US Senator, which ended up imprisoning thousands upon thousands of black people for decades. Made crack cocaine punished 100x more than powdered cocaine. But hey, it's all cool, because Joe said if you don't vote for him "you ain't black"
@@LA_Commander Please get off my comment list. Take your trash somewhere else.
@@Leno323 hey, no need to get all triggered. You're the one who brought it up in the first place. Be a man and accept the truth.
This is what the left thinks the right wants, when we don't.
@@fryloc359 well it's hard to see anything clearly and without bias when all they do is watch CNN all day.
🙀I didn’t think this was a real tv show.I thought it was parody about the south winning the civil war.

Reparations, anyone?
Congress passed reparations right after the Civil War and President Lincoln no doubt would have signed it. Unfortunately, he was killed and the Vice President, a Democrat named Andrew Johnson, became president and vetoed it. The GOP congress later impeached Johnson, but he missed getting convicted by one vote.
What the point of reparations for those who never suffered under slavery? How far are we going back? We would all be giving each other reparations because all races have been slaves or slavers at some point. I give money to some random and then they give stuff back and then over and over. What if we tried to start out as our own person and stopped blaming our issues on stuff that happened before we were born. What is with people using their ancestors as a way to gain sympathy votes? That seems kind of pathetic. If my ancestor was injured in war, does that mean my entire life is affected because of it? No.
It's stupid to try to pass moral judgement on people who lived in a time and place where the moral judge was not even alive, had no experience of the environment of the times, and no knowledge of how people organized and conducted their lives. The living have no right to judge anything or anyone except themselves and those who coexist in the same world. Once you reject the urge to play moral judge of people and time that existed long before the present, you can look at old videos like this as mere pedestrian entertainment. These programs certainly had vastly more substance than, say, the idiotic "reality" shows all over TV and social media today.
Is that nursery owner a white guy in blackface?
Bull shit! Still waiting on white forks! Amos and Andy did not, the TV show..lots on Utube!
Good show for the racist time.
