Julia Edwards (1933 – 24 May 2017) was a Trinidadian dancer and choreographer. Known as the "Queen of Limbo" or "First Lady of Limbo", she was responsible for popularizing limbo dancing as a performance in the 1950s and early 1960s, and for inventing many of its variations.
“Relax,” Edward whispered. Was he mad? There was nothing relaxing about this, nothing that made her want to relax. She wanted to grab and claw and yes, scream as she fought her way to the edge. Except she did not know what that edge was, or what might be on the other side. “Please,” she begged, and it didn’t even seem to matter that she had no idea what she was begging for. Because he did. Dear God, she hoped he did. If he didn’t, she was going to kill him.””
“[William Edward Burghardt] Du Bois saw things rather differently. He argued that it was entirely because of Hitler that Germany had in fact already ‘lapsed into Bolshevism’. In his view, the Nazi government was copying the Soviet Union to such an extent that there was now almost no difference between their two systems. He cited ‘its ownership and control of industry; its control of money and banking, its steps toward land ownership and control by government; its ordering of work and wages, its building of infrastructure and houses, its youth movement and its one party state at elections’.””
“So not only were the babies in need of dry diapers, but the ladies were in need of dry panties.””
