Virtual Harlem

Since I was all dolled up, I thought I'd head over to Virtual Harlem tonight, a fantastic sim about African-American jazz culture in the '20s and '30s. I'm sure Phin's eyeing this car with interest...Here is the famous Cotton Club. Although it had many legendary African American performers there, it was "whites only" and African Americans themselves were not allowed to enjoy it in comparison to... The also famous Savoy Ballroom, with its champion lindy-hoppers and spring-loaded dancefloor called the "Track". There, it was integrated and all were equal on the dancefloor...
Here I am on the stage of the Apollo Theater, where many past and current legends got their start during Amateur Night...
