Today in Black History: on November 21, 1934, at the age of 17, Ella Fitzgerald makes her singing debut at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem, New York. Ella Fitzgerald was one of the most iconic singers of the 20th century. Fitzgerald was awarded the NAACP Equal Justice Award and the American Black Achievement Award, as well as many other awards that celebrated her talents and accomplishments both in the jazz world and in the civil rights movement. Ella even sang a cover of Yiddish song, Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen. #BJEA #BlackHistory #BlackJewishUnity

Jazz legend, Louis Armstrong wrote about his admiration for the Jewish people who helped him through different points in his life in his memoir. While he was not Jewish, he often wore a Star of David necklace as a tribute to the Jewish people who helped him along the way of his musical career. "I will love the Jewish people all my life. They were always warm and kind to me - just a kid who could use a word of kindness." - Louis Armstrong #BJEA #BlackJewishUnity

Sidney Poitier was well-known for being the first Black man to win the Oscar for Best Actor. What is less-known is how he would often credit his success to a Jewish waiter he met when he was new to New York. When Poitier arrived in New York, he worked as a dish washer at a restaurant trying to make ends meet while he was hoping to make it as an actor. He brought newspapers to his shifts even though he did not know how to read. “I sit there, and I’m reading one of the papers, and there was a Jewish waiter sitting at the table, elderly man, and he saw me there. He got up, and he walked over, and he stood by the table and he said, ‘Hi. What’s new in the papers?’ And I said to him, ‘I can’t tell you what’s new in the papers because I don’t read very well.” “Every night after that he would come over and sit with me, and he would teach me what a comma is and why it exists, what periods are, what colons are, what dashes are. He would teach me that there are syllables and how to differentiate them in a single word and consequently, learn how to pronounce them. Every night." “One of my great regrets in life is that I went on to be a very successful actor, and one day I tried to find him, but it was too late, and I regret that I never had the opportunity to really thank him.” #BJEA #BlackJewishUnity #BlackJewishEntertainmentAlliance

“If my Jewish brothers and sisters said to me amid antisemitism anywhere, we don’t need your support, we have enough Jewish power to deal with this problem ourselves. I would still take a stand against antisemitism because it’s wrong, it’s unjust and it’s evil.” - Martin Luther King Jr. #BJEA #BlackJewishUnity
