Better than the Australian guy that dressed up as a girl who passed away, far more interesting too! Will be missed!
Never heard of him
Legends are forever!
I never liked him. I don't know of any civil rights that he was fighting for. Cynthia g. Youtube expose these men pathology and fake civil rights movement.
A quote from legendary actress Eartha Kitt: " I was married to Bill McDonald in 1960. People would say ‘Why didn’t you marry a
Blackman?’ I would reply“because the
whitegirls had them!” The men I wanted to be with, Sidney Poitier, Harry Belafonte, dated predominatlywhitewomen. I’m talking about the 50s. Harry Belfonte picks me up out of his bed in Philadelphia and said: ‘I don’t want you to take me seriously because noBlackwoman can do anything for me’. I could not help him to progress into where he was going to go. “Ablackwoman would hold ablackman back’, that’s what he told me. If I wanted to marry ablackman there wasn’t one because thewhitegirls had them."AUGUST 25, 2016
Belafonte, Charlamagne tha God and Rev. Al Sharpton have all come out to support Nate Parker against what they feel is a smear campaign to “keep the
blackman down.” Many more have come to the same defense, especially otherblackmen, but those three are the most prominent. Whether they know this or not, their attempts to do as much as they can to support theblackman is even more damaging to many victims of rpe and sxual assault.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
God bless and godsend. Much love respect and appreciation for All your contributions.
He wasnt no damn calypso singer
😢RestInPeace
Always with wrong news, I wonder about Americans and their lack of education and ability to promote false news. How exactly was Harry Belafonte a calypso pioneer, do you even know when calypso was invented and where. I’ll give you a hint… it wasn’t Jamaica. It is not a Jamaican art for, that would be mento… It was a Trinidadian artform and there were calypso performers in the US long before Belafonte. Kindly do your research and stop promoting false information. Mr. Belafonte with his good looks popularized it in the US for white audiences but even US soldiers in the base in Trinidad during WWII would have heard original calypso and not those watered down folk songs that Belafonte did.
Gran legado musical
Harry for ever!❤

Most people are taught that "you only need a good job to become rich". These millionaire's are operating on a whole other playbook that many don't even know exists.
I’m 58. As a man who has made it this far, Harry Belafonte has always been there since my childhood. I can not express enough just how sad I am. All I can really say is that the man was a force for absolute good. He dedicated every minute of his life to the betterment of our human condition. He is a legend that has lived in the time of legends. I will miss knowing he is still here, and wish he was.
Smooth sailing Harry.⛵️
R.I.P Harry. This man has made blissful music. ❤
No big loss
RIP😢😢😢
Whatever
As we lose our seniors like Harry Belafonte we are losing a wisdom that will never be captured again. We are letting our power slip away with out preserving any of it's truth.
❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢
Rest in Eternal Peace Mr. Belafontae
