Found Opportunity In A Hopeless Place
The group asked her to join them. This was the opportunity Josephine needed- not only did she have a job but a place where she could grow as a dancer and an artist. The dance group was going to perform in the New York City! It was the time of Harlem Renaissance- the rebirth of African- American ways of creativity and culture- jazz, poetry etc. It was Josephine’s time. No sooner was she in New York that she managed to get a job for dancing in Broadway shows. Where her dancing career would lead her, she could not have known.
