In this Feb. 8, 2017 photo, author Ed Maliskas stands in the performers' dressing room of a dance hall in Dargan, Md., that hosted dozens of black performers including James Brown, Ray Charles, Etta James and Otis Redding during the racially segregated 1950s and early '60s. The hall stands on the same property as the house where abolitionist John Brown launched his 1859 seizure of a federal armory. The Black Elks, the African-American fraternal organization that built the dance hall, sold the Maryland property in 1966, seven months after James Brown starred in the final show.
