Hallelujah!


Hallelujah, they've given actress Hattie McDaniel a stamp, just in time for Black History Month. For those you who may not be familiar with her, Hattie was the first African-American ever to win an Academy Award, when she won for playing Mammy in GTW in 1940.

Congratulations Hattie. I'm sure you're smiling down from heaven.

Oh, that's wonderful! I better make sure I run out and get some of those stamps! My sister, who died in 1990 at the age of 27, was a HUGE Gone with the Wind fan, as I am. She would have loved this1
