Synopsis

Focusing on ""Amos 'n' Andy"", a nightly American radio comedy in the 1930s, this text unveils a tale of America's shifting colour line, in which two professional directors of blackface minstrel shows produced a series so complex that it won admirers ranging from ultra-racists to racial egalitarians.
