    One of the poignant moments was when Marilyn McCoo (of the 5th Dimension) was teary-eyed while remembering, "We were being accused of being Black people playing/singing White people's music.

    The entire show was filled with golden moments of that epic 1960 Harlem Cultural Festival. Some amazing talent, attendance, and cultural expressiveness. One might even call it the Black Woodstock of the time.
