A small Black boy dances on a table while White men clap along.
It's been some time since I gave money to spin dancers on the streets of New York, but in my mind that and this are linked. For the modern viewer, there's a lot of racism in the title, some racism in the fact it's a Black child, and probably some sexism in the identification of the child as a boy.... after all, we don't know which of what seems to an old geezer like me the vast multiplication of people's sexual identities about which I am supposed to approve these days. As for the situation... well street performers (they call them 'buskers' in England) are all around, playing music, singing songs, and occasionally doing acrobatics.
I can see this happening in my mind's eye, after which the boy takes off his cap, and the men pitch in pennies, maybe nickels. I don't know about the others' takes on the child's (is that ageist? Oh well) dancing, but it looks pretty good to me.
Or, instead of wondering if this is racist or sexist or some other -ist we must vehemently disapprove of, we can look at it as a relatively benign window into the past. You want terrible, take a look at ALLIGATOR BAIT (1900).
