 Quicknation, comprehensive information and links about Danitra Vance
She is best remembered for the sketch "That Black Girl", a spoof of the 1960s sitcom, and for her character Cabrini Green, an urban teenager named after a Chicago housing project.
Vance became frustrated and ultimately left because her roles in sketches were mostly limited to prostitutes and maids.
Perhaps adding to her frustration was her dyslexia, which according to an Trivial Pursuit question made it hard for her to read from cue cards.

 Limit Up | The A.V. Club
At a dive bar, Nike (Danitra Vance) offers to help Allen get ahead of her less-talented male co-workers, via a satanic (or is it angelic?) version of affirmative action.
Allen acquiesces, but she can't help but worry that this will be one of those rare instances in which making a deal with a supernatural being has negative consequences.
After apparently trading away her soul, Allen is given a red sports car with the ominous vanity plate "CU-N-HELL." Later, the film indulges in what may be the first montage sequence to combine a drippy R&B song, romantic Chicago landmarks, and a lead character learning the ins and outs of soybean trading.
