(Harry Belafonte)

was also a stalwart

of the civil rights movement

who seems to have helped

just about everything,

including Freedom Summer,

the Student Nonviolent

Coordinating Committee,

the 1963 March on Washington,

the cultural boycott

of apartheid-era South Africa

and the 1985 charity fund-raiser megahit

“We Are the World.”
