Harry Belafonte...a TOTAL CLASS ACT and one of my heroes. When he died last year, I cried. This was a man that had it all...people forget, he was an incredible singer..had charisma and swag, out the back door and HE KNEW he was gifted in a lot of ways. But what he was put on this Earth to do, is what he is known for. He was a humanitarian with no peer. He gave a voice to those that were too intimidated or down-trodden to speak up for themselves. And he never sold himmself out. Mr Belafonte was UNAPOLOGETICALLY black. And thats what I appreciated about him, the most.

[@elianete7404]

❤

[@sweetestesty]

His maturity was quite profound. The night the song was recorded, he was almost inconspicuous; he stood behind, meanwhile, he was the brain behind the project. That's leadership at the highest level.
