Richard Roundtree (July 9, 1942 – October 24, 2023) was an American actor, noted as being "the first black action hero" for his portrayal of private detective John Shaft in the 1971 film Shaft, and its four sequels, released between 1972 and 2019. For his performance in the original film, Roundtree was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for New Star of the Year – Actor in 1972.

Born July 9, 1942, in New Rochelle, New York, to John Roundtree and Kathryn Watkins, Roundtree attended New Rochelle High School; graduating in 1961. During high school, Roundtree played for the school's undefeated and nationally ranked football team. Following high school, Roundtree attended Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois. Roundtree dropped out of college in 1963 to begin his acting career.

Roundtree began his professional career around 1963. Roundtree began modeling in the Ebony Fashion Fair after being scouted by Eunice W. Johnson. After his modeling success with the Fashion Fair, Roundtree began modeling for such products as Johnson Products' Duke hair grease  and Salem cigarettes. In 1967, Roundtree joined the Negro Ensemble Company. His first role while a part of the company was portraying boxing legend Jack Johnson in the company's production of The Great White Hope.  According to J. E. Franklin, he acted in the Off-Off-Broadway production of her play Mau Mau Room, by the Negro Ensemble Company Workshop Festival, at St. Mark's Playhouse in 1969, directed by Shauneille Perry.

Roundtree was a leading man in early 1970s blaxploitation films, his best-known role being detective John Shaft in the action movie, Shaft (1971) and its sequels, Shaft's Big Score! (1972) and Shaft in Africa (1973). Roundtree also appeared opposite Laurence Olivier and Ben Gazzara in Inchon (1981). On television, he played the slave Sam Bennett in the 1977 television series Roots and Dr. Daniel Reubens on Generations from 1989 to 1991. He played another private detective in 1984's City Heat opposite Clint Eastwood and Burt Reynolds. Although Roundtree worked throughout the 1990s, many of his films were not well-received, but he found success elsewhere in stage plays.

During that period, however, he reemerged on the small screen as a cultural icon. On September 19, 1991, Roundtree appeared in an episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 with Vivica A. Fox. The episode was "Ashes to Ashes", Roundtree playing Robinson Ashe Jr. Roundtree appeared in David Fincher's critically acclaimed 1995 movie Seven, and in the 2000 Shaft, again as John Shaft, with Samuel L. Jackson playing the title character, who is described as the original Shaft's nephew. Roundtree guest-starred in several episodes of the first season of Desperate Housewives as an amoral private detective. He also appeared in 1997's George of the Jungle and played a high-school vice-principal in the 2005 movie, Brick. His voice was utilized as the title character in the hit PlayStation game Akuji the Heartless, where Akuji must battle his way out of the depths of Hell at the bidding of the Baron.

In 1997–1998, Roundtree had a leading role as Phil Thomas in the short-lived Fox ensemble drama, 413 Hope St. He portrayed Booker T. Washington in the 1999 television movie Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters' First 100 Years.

Beginning in 2005, Roundtree appeared in the television series The Closer as Colonel D. B. Walter, U.S.M.C. (retired), the father of a sniper, and in Heroes as Simone's terminally ill father, Charles Deveaux. Next, Roundtree appeared as Eddie's father-in-law in episodes of Lincoln Heights. Roundtree then had a supporting role in the 2008 Speed Racer film as a racer-turned-commentator who is an icon and hero to Speed. He also appeared in the two-parter in Knight Rider (2008) as the father of FBI Agent Carrie Ravai, and co-starred as the father of the lead character on Being Mary Jane, which has aired on BET since 2013.

In 2019, Roundtree co-starred in the comedy film film What Men Want, and returned to the role of John Shaft in Shaft, a sequel to the 2000 film, opposite Samuel L. Jackson and Jessie Usher, who portray John Shaft II and John Shaft III, respectively. This time, Roundtree's character was described as Jackson's character's father, while acknowledging that Roundtree had pretended to be Jackson's Shaft's uncle in the 2000 movie. He also starred in the movie, Family Reunion in 2019.

Roundtree was married and divorced twice and had five children. His first marriage was to Mary Jane Grant, whom he married on November 27, 1963. Roundtree and Grant had two children before divorcing in December 1973. He dated actress and TV personality Cathy Lee Crosby shortly thereafter. Roundtree later married Karen M. Ciernia in September 1980; together they had three children. Roundtree and Ciernia divorced in 1998. Roundtree was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1993 and underwent a double mastectomy and chemotherapy.

Roundtree died of pancreatic cancer at his Los Angeles home on October 24, 2023, at the age of 81.

My deepest condolences to his family and friends. 🙏🏾❤️🕊

There’s a lot we BJU alumni don’t know about Sarah Roberta Oliver.

We called her “Miss Sarah,” in the girls’ dorms. That was an old Southern way of both showing affection and reduced status for people of color.

We told each other that she cared for Bob Jones III when he was young, but there’s no evidence of that.

She did work at the Greenville Army Air base in 1945.

According to the Greenville phone book, she was working at BJU as a “maid” from 1949 onward.

In 1956, the phone book lists her as a “cook” for BJU.

We women who lived in the dorms in the 1980s remember her living in an apartment on the first floor of Gaston down at the far end nearest the rest of campus.

Her dad, John Oliver, did work for Furman University in 1930. 

She was John and Ethel’s oldest child, and her siblings are as follows:

John Alex Oliver Jr.

James Alfred Oliver

Jacob Oliver

William Barton Oliver

Mary Elizabeth Oliver

Eugene R. Oliver

Bennie Oliver

Robert Oliver

She also had a daughter, Ethel Elizabeth Oliver, who was born in 1943, when she was 20. Ethel died in 1975 of “general sepsis” at age 32 because she was immunocompromised due to a kidney transplant. She was married with four children at the time.

Notice that Ethel Oliver Riley did not know who her father was.

But after all that, after working at BJU from 1949 forward, after we all remember her sitting at the desk in Gaston or calling “man on the hall” at necessary moments....

Bob Jones University didn’t actually commemorate Sarah Oliver’s employment in the yearbook until 1994.

This is Bob Jones University, folks. We saw it up close. The evidence is everywhere.

Ms. Sarah Roberta Oliver, 98, of Greenville, South Carolina, passed on Wednesday, March 9, 2022, at St. Francis Women's Hospital. She was the daughter of the late John A. and Ethel Emma Oliver.

She was the last surviving member of her immediate family. Preceded in death, daughter, Ethel Elizabeth Oliver Riley.

Surviving are four grandchildren: Frederick D. (Pam) Oliver of Asheville, NC, Patrice L. Riley-McMahan, of Simpsonville, SC, Patrick B. Riley, and Jeanine D. Riley both of Greenville, SC; six great-grandchildren; ten great-great-grandchildren; and a host of other relatives and friends.

Funeral Service: Sunday, March 20, 2022, 2:00pm at Mt. View Baptist Church with interment in Resthaven Memorial Gardens.

Over 12,000 people have signed an online petition to shut down a new opera about the victim of a 1955 lynching, Emmett Till. 

The play, "Emmett Till, A New American Opera," was set to open on Wednesday, March 23, at The City University of New York, John Jay College's Gerald W. Lynch Theatre in New York City. However, critics of the play have called it historically inaccurate.

John Jay College of Criminal Justice student Mya Bishop created the change.org petition, writing that the opera, penned by Clare Coss, centers a fictional "white school teacher named Roanne Taylor" and her "white guilt" rather than the torture and murder of Emmett Till, who was lynched by two white men for allegedly flirting with a white woman when he was only 14 years old.

The petition reads, "Clare Coss has creatively centered her white guilt by using this show to make the racially motivated brutal torture and murder of a 14-year-old child about her white self and her white feelings."

"Yes, the opera has a fictional white character — but it isn't about her," composer Mary D. Watkins said in a statement to Playbill. "It is a true story that happened in our American history that could be told by anyone."

Coss, 86, said Till's story touched her as a child and moved her to write this opera. 

"[Composer] Mary [Watkins] was 15 in 1955 and I was 20 — each of us deeply and differently impacted by the barbaric lynching of 14-year-old Emmett Till in the Mississippi Delta and the failure of justice," she wrote in a statement to Playbill. "The one invented white character, Roanne Taylor, a schoolteacher who cares but is silent, reflects Martin Luther King, Jr.'s ultimate tragedy: the silence of the good people. She represents the context of white supremacy in which the world of violence and terror was enabled. She takes a first step forward to break the silence."

Till, who was visiting family in Mississippi at the time of his murder, was falsely accused by Carolyn Bryant Donham, a white woman, of whistling and making advances toward her in 1955 outside the store she and her husband, Roy, owned. 

Days later, Till was taken from his bed in the middle of the night by Roy Bryant and his half brother. He was thrown into the bed of a pickup truck, viciously attacked, shot, and tossed into the Tallahatchie River. His brutal murder brought attention to the centuries of violence Black communities suffered in America. His story became a rallying cry of the civil rights movement.

Until her death in 2003, Till's mother, Mamie Till, fought to get justice for her son to no avail. The Justice Department closed its third investigation into Till's murder in 2021.

🗳️Women’s Equality Day: BIPOC Women and the Suffrage Movement

“Either I go with you or not at all. I am not taking this stand because I personally wish for recognition. I am doing it for the future benefit of my whole race.”–Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Anti-Lynching Activist and Founder of the Alpha Suffrage Club

August 26th is Women’s Equality Day. This year will mark the 100th Anniversary of the 19 Amendment. The 19th Amendment was ratified in August of 1920. It granted women the right to vote. However, the role that Black and other women of color played in the suffrage movement is often minimized. The above quote was voiced by a determined Ida B. Wells Barnett when, during a  1913 march in Washington D. C., leaders of the movement instructed Black women in the movement to walk at the end of the parade. This was done to appease Southern white women. While some Black women acquiesced, Wells-Barnett marched alongside the white delegation from her state of Illinois. 

Because of rampant voter suppression tactics, Black women would have to continue the fight well beyond 1920 to exercise their right to vote. Unfortunately, there is not much children’s literature by Black authors that explores women like Wells-Barnett, Mary Church Terrell, Nannie Helen Burroughs, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, members of Delta Sigma Theta, and many other unsung women who played pivotal roles as early suffragists. The following books by Veronica Chambers and Evette Dionne will introduce young readers to women in the movement. While Chambers’ Finish the Fight! focuses on various BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) women, Dionne’s Lifting as We Climb tells the stories of Black women.
