14. "Jim Crow,“ it appeared in sheet music written by
Thomas Dartmouth "Daddy" Rice. Rice, a struggling
"actor" (he did short solo skits between play scenes) at
the Park Theater in New York, happened upon a black
person singing the above song -- some accounts say it
was an old black slave who walked with difficulty, others
say it was a ragged black stable boy. Whether modeled
on an old man or a young boy we will never know, but
we know that in 1828 Rice appeared on stage as "Jim
Crow" -- an exaggerated, highly stereotypical black
character.
