Clubdeville

Locked out of white-only bars, Club DeVille in Central Financial District has become renown on the Chitlin' Circuit for hosting such greats as Count Basie, Cab Calloway and Duke Ellington, as well as various burlesque acts and even blues. Integrated crowds and acts often lead to raids by police with the pretext of enforcing the Mann Act.
