I remember the segregated Carolina theatre and also the National, and also the Center theatres.
In the Carolina theatre, the segregated balcony had a seperate entrance and I am sure the other theatres also had seperate entrance, because I never saw Africian Americans anywhere around the theatres. Thank God things have changed.
I USED TO SPEND MY SATURDAYS AT THE NATIONAL THEATRE WACTHING TRIPLE FEATURES. IN 1959, I SAW THE HORROR OF DRACULA, WHAT A SCARY MOVIE.
IN 1967, THEY RAZED THE THEATRE AND BUILT A PARKING LOT.
This theatre was called the Center theatre in the 60’s. It is now a night club.
