Amos
'n' Andy, the televersion, had all of the elements of an enduring
classic - first-rate scripts that would rival the best episode of I
Love Lucy for hilarious plot weavings along with lovable characters
played with aplomb by masterful actors clearly in their element. But there
was an inescapable component to Amos 'n' Andy that overshadowed
the superior accomplishments of the actors and production staff - the
actors were black and the year was 1951.

The stories had nothing to do with race, and on a positive
note, introduced the concept of dignified black doctors, business leaders
and lawyers - a first for any mass medium.
