Harlem on the Prairie
''Harlem on the Prairie'' (1937) is a race movie, billed as the first "all-colored" western musical.〔Sampson, Henry T. ''Blacks in Black and White: A Source Book on Black Films'' (1997), p. 63, ISBN 0-8108-2605-4〕 The movie reminded audiences that there were black cowboys and corrected a popular Hollywood image of an all-white Old West.〔Berry, S. Torriano. ''The 50 Most Influential Black Films: A Celebration of African-American Talent, Determination, and Creativity'', Citadel Press (2001), p. 43, ISBN 0-8065-2133-3〕

==Plot summary==
The story concerns events in the life of Doc Clayburn, who returns with his medicine show and young daughter, Carolina, to the country where 20 years before he had been a rider with a gang of outlaws and assisted in a gold robbery. The gold was hidden when all but Doc were killed in a fight with a posse, and never recovered. When Doc is on his way to recover the gold and wipe out the memory of those early days and his straying from the straight and narrow, his caravan, which had been trailed by a rival gang, is attacked and he is mortally wounded. Just before he dies, Doc gives a map of the gold cache to Jeff Kincaid, a younger rider whom he entrusts with the plan of finding the gold and restoring it to its rightful owners. In doing this, Jeff encounters the heavies, and Mistletoe and Crawfish supply the comedy relief.
