Sammy Davis Jr. Named the 9 Worst Racist Stars In Old Hollywood Golden Age History

Sammy Davis Jr. Named the 9 Worst Racist Stars In Old Hollywood Golden Age History Sammy Davis Jr. spent over fifty years performing alongside Hollywood's biggest names—from the early 1940s through the late 1980s. As the most prominent Black entertainer of his generation and a core member of the legendary Rat Pack, Davis witnessed racism that most performers never had the courage to expose. In two groundbreaking autobiographies, he named the names Hollywood wanted kept quiet. This documentary reveals the nine Golden Age stars whose documented racism Davis could no longer stay silent about—from the director whose cinematic masterpiece single-handedly revived the most violent hate organization in American history, to the three-time Oscar winner who reportedly celebrated the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. And at number one, the biggest cowboy star who ever lived—a man who called Sammy his friend, defended him on stage, and then declared his belief in white supremacy in a national magazine. Based on Davis's own published autobiographies Yes I Can and *Why Me*, documented interviews, verified historical records, and accounts from those who worked alongside these stars. The names will shock you. The evidence is undeniable. And the legacy of their actions still shapes Hollywood today. ► If you found this historical exploration valuable, please like and share to support the channel! ► Subscribe for more untold stories from Hollywood's complicated past.
