How the hell did this guy come up with the name "Scatman"? Kamagurka 00:28, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

He was a great "Scat" singer. Scat is a style of jazz vocalizing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SkyJelly (talk • contribs) 03:17, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

I think Kamagurka means "illustrator" in another language, I forget which. 142.166.206.103 (talk) 13:51, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Removed item saying Emmett Till "sexually harassed" a white woman as the provocation for his murder. There are differing accounts of what happened, including the fact that Till's whistling, which he used to control his stuttering, may have been misinterpeted as a "wolf-call," which, even if true, hardly qualifies as "sexual harassment." As the accounts are not clear what exactly happened, it is inappropriate to label Till's behavior as sexual harassment. Jango Davis 09:51 UTC

Dead ringer for Scatman Crothers

In the movie 42nd Street (1933), in the "Shuffle Off to Buffalo" number, the Pullman porter collecting shoes is a dead ringer for Scatman Crothers. But that was over 20 years before Crothers' first appearance in movies (and Crothers was only 23 years old at the time).

Can anyone identify the actor in 42nd Street?

Duplication

The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan's Island is listed as a movie appearance and a television appearance. This is obviously because it was a made-for-TV movie, but it should probably be one or the other. 50.96.153.170 (talk) 18:41, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
