Eartha Kitt spoke her negative views on the war in Vietnam at a White House luncheon,
she was effectively blacklisted and didn't work in the States for fully a decade. Race did and does matter. It didn't matter the contributions she made to the country, or that she was a mother. Eartha Kitt spoke the truth contrary to how white people felt about a people they held in contempt. This spirit is the American spirit! - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 6/8/17
