We’re letting Mormons have too much influence in culture. They should be doing their weird shit far away from the rest of us.

Michael Jackson didn't invent the moonwalk. The dance was on film in 1932, 26 years before he was born. He did it on TV in 1983 and stamped his name on 51 years of dance history.

The first person on tape was Cab Calloway, a jazz singer who led one of the most famous big bands of the 1930s. In a 1932 film called The Big Broadcast, he slid backwards while looking like he was walking forwards. He called the move The Buzz.

A tap dancer named Bill Bailey did it on film in 1943. The movie was called Cabin in the Sky. He did it again in 1955 at the Apollo Theater in Harlem and called it the backslide.

Marcel Marceau, the French mime, used the move from the 1940s into the 1980s. His version was called "Walking Against the Wind." He pretended a strong wind was blowing him backwards while he tried to step forwards. Dick Van Dyke did a comedy version on TV in 1958, in a sketch called "Mailing a Letter on a Windy Corner."

In the late 1970s, a dancer named Jeffrey Daniel started doing the same move every week on Soul Train, a Black music show that aired on Saturdays. Jackson watched it. He loved Daniel's version, had his manager call the show, and asked Daniel to come teach him. That was 1980.

Two other Soul Train dancers, Caszper Canidate and Cooley Jaxson, gave Jackson private sessions in June 1981. Caszper says he still has the check. Jackson wrote in his autobiography that three kids taught him the move, and one was Bobby Brown of New Edition.

The clip in the tweet is from The Little Prince, a 1974 movie based on the children's book. Bob Fosse plays the Snake, dancing alone in the desert in all black. Jackson grew up on Fosse's movies. The bowler hat, the jazz hands, the toes turned inward, the freezing in pose. All of that came from Fosse. Jackson loved him so much he later asked him to choreograph the Thriller music video. Fosse said no.

What Jackson got from Fosse was the look. The slide came from the Soul Train dancers, who got it from a Black dance tradition going back to the 1930s, when Cab Calloway was already calling it The Buzz.

On May 16, 1983, Jackson did all of it on prime-time TV in front of 47 million Americans, one in five people in the whole country, wearing a black sparkly jacket and one sparkly glove. He renamed the backslide the moonwalk. After that night, the dance belonged to him.

I never understood the point of bringing down one (in this case, an entire era) to big up another. But that's the world we live in...
But to simply imply that the previous era was merely loud party raps, is simply not true.
The R had a predecessor.

Melle Mel did NOT.

White progressives are about to learn the hard way that white voters will choose racism over progress every time.
