Published 2024-05-17
Lena Horne is a pioneer in Hollywood and black entertainment. She was the first black person to sign a high-pay, long-term contract with one of the biggest movie production studios in Hollywood. Her success opened the way for many black actors who looked up to her, and she became a leading light in the industry. She had seen it all: the hardships, the rejections, the hard work, and the struggle, and she had conquered. She had fought the battle, and like the victor that she was, she could now share her experience with others, and she did.

Ms. Lena Horne was the epitome of beauty, brains, class, grace, talent, and style. It's ashamed that her parents wanted a boy first instead. It sounds like she went through so many changes just working to live out her dream and life's work. Hollywood writers, directors, producers and all that works behind the scenes are so greedy and filled with lists that so many hopes and dreams have been destroyed. All that glitters ain't gold.

Same Old Sh*t. R.I.P. Lena

Meet Ms. Horne one night after her one woman show in San Francisco. Ms. Horne was the BOMB!!! Not only was she more beautiful in person, she was a regally proud BLACK woman, down to earth and could and would cuss like a sailor!!! Loved, admired, appreciated her tenacity and fight for racial equality. Made me proud to be a Black woman. Ms. Horne was a one of a kind trailblazer.❤❤❤

The righteous must stand up and rice. We are on the way back. I’m up fighting and standing, Lord Yah Keep Giving Us Strength.

Sad truth
-
This lady was very beautiful! However no matter how light skinned, them folks treated her As any other dark skinned actor.
-
It didn't start with her, and neither has it ended with her. The struggle started way before Lena, and she was one who was able to maneuver through some of it. She opened doors for many who came who came after her. The strength that she possessed was also something that should be respected for. She carried herself in a respectful manner and helped up and comming black actors. She wasn't afraid to speak out for civil rights . When one wants to demean or deminish the struggles of the past just look at what those in the present are doing for the next generations.

She was special ❤I worked with her in 1987 classy lady ❤

Fight always for ur worth bc they will use u up and move on to the next victim and quiet is kept, of course though blackmail tactics as the code goes.

Explained the negative rep I learned as a child. It was all a lie and nefarious. Same game being played today for the same reason--hatred of black folks.
