Podcast appearances and mentions of Hattie McDaniel

In this episode, we hear from with award-winning author, journalist and broadcaster Ben Arogundade about his latest book, Hollywood Blackout.Drawing on a century of film history, Hollywood Blackout explores how the Academy Awards have both resisted and reflected changing social forces — from the Nazi invasion of Europe to the Civil Rights Movement, Vietnam, #OscarsSoWhite, and #BlackLivesMatter. Arogundade reveals how external political and cultural shocks shaped who was celebrated at the Oscars and when — and how Hollywood's slow path toward inclusion has been won by generations of under-recognised artists and activists.We discuss the ground breaking victories of Hattie McDaniel, Sidney Poitier, Denzel Washington and Will Smith — and how moments of global crisis forced the Academy to evolve. Ben also shares powerful insights into the systemic barriers faced by Black, Asian, Latino, Indigenous, and female creatives throughout Hollywood history. Hollywood Blackout is a richly detailed, deeply researched account of the struggle for recognition in one of the world's most powerful cultural institutions. A must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of race, politics, and cinema.*****STOP PRESS*****I only ever talk about history on this podcast but I also have another life, yes, that of aspirant fantasy author and if that's your thing you can get a copy of my debut novel The Blood of Tharta, right here:Help the podcast to continue bringing you history each weekIf you enjoy the Explaining History podcast and its many years of content and would like to help the show continue, please consider supporting it in the following ways:If you want to go ad-free, you can take out a membership hereOrYou can support the podcast via Patreon hereOr you can just say some nice things about it here Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/explaininghistory.

Hollywood tiene sus estrellas ⭐, pero también sus sombras . Desde la vergonzosa segregación que vivió Hattie McDaniel al recibir su Oscar en 1940, hasta la protesta de Marlon Brando en los 70 y el estallido del caso Weinstein en 2017 , los Oscar han sido un reflejo de todo lo bueno, lo malo y lo incómodo del cine . También revivimos el emocionante momento en que Sidney Poitier rompió barreras en 1964 y el histórico triunfo de Halle Berry y Denzel Washington en 2002 , en una noche que parecía el inicio de una nueva era… que aún sigue tardando en llegar ⏳. Acompáñanos en la aventura de los errores pasados para descubrir que LOS OSCARS...

On February 29, 1940, African American actor Hattie McDaniel became the first person of color, and the first Black woman, to win an Academy Award. The moment marked the beginning of Hollywood's reluctant move toward diversity and inclusion. Since then, minorities and women have struggled to attain Academy Awards recognition within a system designed to discriminate against them.  In Hollywood Blackout: The Battle for Inclusion at the Oscars (Octupus Publishing, 2025) author Ben Arogundade interweaves the experiences of Black actors and filmmakers with those of Asians, Latinos, South Asians, Indigenous peoples, and women throughout the decades, charting their progression to the Oscars podium, galvanized by defiant boycotts, civil rights protests, and social media activism. Through lenses of history, cinephelia, and social justice, Hollywood Blackout offers a backstage view for those seeking the real story of Hollywood, the Oscars, and the talents who fought to make change.

EPISODE 76 - “MEMORABLE OSCAR SPEECHES OF THE GOLDEN ERA OF HOLLYWOOD” - 2/24/2025 Winning an Oscar is a dream for most people who work in Hollywood. But you can't just win the Oscar, you have to have a good speech once your name is called and you head to the podium. There have been some great ones — OLIVIA COLEMAN's funny and cheeky speech hit the right tone and who can forget JACK PALANCE's one-arm push-ups or CUBA GOODING's exuberance? There have also been some bad ones — don't we all still cringe a little at SALLY FIELDS' “You like me” speech? As we prepare to celebrate the 97th annual Academy Award ceremony, Steve and Nan look back on some of their favorite Oscar speeches and why they resonate.

Sono sicuro, qualcuno starà pensando … oh no! Vespa anche su Film alla Radio..  E invece no, la celeberrima sigla del programma televisivo porta a porta è proprio presa dalla colonna sonora del film di questa puntata. La pellicola è l'adattamento cinematografico colossal dell'omonimo romanzo di Margaret Mitchell del 1936. Proiettato in anteprima ad Atlanta il 15 dicembre 1939, il film fu accolto positivamente dalla critica che ne apprezzò soprattutto il cast. Nel 1940 vinse 8 Premi Oscar (all'epoca un record), tra cui miglior film, miglior regista, miglior sceneggiatura non originale, miglior attrice (Leigh) e miglior attrice non protagonista (Hattie McDaniel, prima afroamericana a vincere un Oscar), più due statuette speciali. Il film di questa puntata è “Via col vento”.Grazie a Silvia in redazione, Lucia Pareti (Curiosità), Mariangela Ungaro (Colonna sonora), Fernanda Cherubini (Cast), Marco Pieroni (Trama).

Hattie McDaniel's story is worth highlighting again! If you haven't listened to her remarkable story, please take the time to do so. Her story is an important look into what black entertainers were subjected to in our past. She was the first African American to win an Oscar, yet that didn't change the fact that she was a black woman in the 1930s and 40s... and she was treated as such. Her life was not easy, but she was TOUGH. And when you hear her father's story in this episode, you'll see where she got it. Hattie McDaniel's story is a re-release as we recognize Black History Month and give individuals like her the recognition they deserve. Her story is important so we can all understand the hardships Black Americans had to endure and how they helped pave the way for those who came after then.

Brandon welcomes Samantha Mason to look at 1942's In This Our Life. Samantha is a history teacher and movie buff who cohosts the Movie Club podcast with former Front Row guest, Hayley Chow.

Hattie McDaniel was an American actress, singer, and comedian. She was born in 1893 in Wichita, Kansas...and was the youngest of 13 children. Her father Henry had fought in the Civil War. Her mother was a gospel singer, both had been slaves. After graduating from high school McDaniel started working as a songwriter and performer. In the 1920s she began performing on the radio, and embarked on a recording career. In 1927 McDaniel had a hit with One Sorrowing Heart. In 1932 McDaniel made her first movie appearance as a maid, and unfortunately was labeled with that stereotype the rest of her life. Facing discrimination and limited opportunities. However, McDaniel remained a trailblazer and an inspiration to many. In 1939, Hattie McDaniel became the first African-American to win an Academy Award, for Best Supporting Actress in the classic film Gone With the Wind. She appeared in 300 films during her career, including Johnny Come Lately, with James Cagney in 1943. McDaniel stopped acting in movies after 1949, but switched to television, and continued to perform on radio, becoming the first black actor to star in her own radio program, the comedy series Beulah in 1947 on CBS Radio. When the sitcom transitioned to ABC-TV in 1950, Ethel Waters had the starring role, but quit after the first year. McDaniel replaced Waters but became to ill to perform after filming just 6 episodes. You're going to hear Hattie McDaniel on the Eddie Cantor radio show with Humphrey Bogart in 1941. The on the all-black Blueberry Hill Program, a pilot recorded by CBS Radio in 1943. And performing as Beulah on the Bing Crosby radio program in 1949. More at KRobCollection.com

A los 87 años ha fallecido el actor Louis Gossett Jr., figura recurrente en el cine de la década de los 80 y referencia icónica al ser el primer actor negro en ganar el Oscar al mejor actor de reparto. Fue por “Oficial y caballero” en 1983 y hasta ese momento sólo Hattie McDaniel (“Lo que el viento se llevó”) y Sidney Poitier (“Los lirios del valle”) habían sido merecedores del galardón dejando muestra de un racismo congénito en la industria reflejo de una sociedad que seguía contribuyendo a la marginación y el prejuicio. A pesar de la estatuilla fue en la televisión donde más se le pudo ver desde “Raíces” (ganando el Emmy en 1977) hasta “Watchmen” (que le valió en 2020 su octava y última nominación en los premios de la academia televisiva). Este reportaje pertenece al programa “El Cine de LoQueYoTeDiga” nº 433 (15x18) y fue emitido el 6 de abril de 2024.

Black vaudevillians and entertainers joked that T.O.B.A. stood for "tough on black artists." But the Theater Owner's Booking Association (T.O.B.A.) played a foundational role in the African American entertainment industry. T.O.B.A. Time: Black Vaudeville and the Theater Owners' Booking Association in Jazz-Age America by Michelle R. Scott (University of Illinois Press, 2023) examines this circuit of vaudeville theaters active between 1920 and 1930 which booked blues singers, comedians, dancers, and many other kinds of entertainers into Black-serving theaters throughout the United States. T.O.B.A. launched and nurtured the careers of many Black performers including Cab Calloway, Sammy Davis Jr., Count Basie, Bessie Smith, Ethel Waters, and Hattie McDaniel. Scott traces T.O.B.A.'s antecedents in the first decades of the twentieth century and documents the ten years of its existence. She contextualizes T.O.B.A. within the politics of segregated America, the Black communities served by its theaters, and its effect on the lives and careers of thousands of Black performers.
