Harry Belafonte was my cousin..I grew up hearing about his many good deeds..from the hills of Alexandria, St Ann..i am proud to say he is a member of my family May he rest in the Embrace of the Most High! ❤🙏👏❤️
Harry Belafonte is and had been a significant gift to America and to the world. The sad regret is that not enough Americans and more people across the world have not experienced Harry Belafonte more fully. He is a phenomenal human being. I wish I could have met and spoken to him on a one-on one basis. He is truly brilliant, thoughtful, perceptive and kind.
A day before his 7:44 departure was announced, his song kept coming to my head and I will sing and dance it. The next day a neighbor texted me about his passing a day before. My heart dropped how much I am connected to his vision and work. May the Lord accept you in his bosom of Angels. May your soul rest in peace Mr. Belafonte. ❤😊😢
I am only disappointed by the very low number of views. Tens of millions will watch the latest pop trash of the day but only 4000 will watch and listen to this great mind?
Thank you Harry for your service, your work in the arts and especially in your work for a free and just Democracy for all. I agree with your take on where we had gotten in racism and freedom. I noticed the positive changes during my childhood and was proud to see it moving in that direction. But now I see that it has been turned around in a negative direction and it upsets me. Now I am doing what you did during your lifetime and try to become involved. It will get better because more people want that than those who don't.
Become involved as you say is the most important thing we all could and must do, following the foosteps of the best ones, as Belafonte, one man of great culture, wisdom, humanity and intelligence, and I'm sure this was his greatest dream and hope, seeing more and more people involved to get this human world better than we found it. It is striking to think about we are a global community, nothing is achieved truly by a single person alone, nothing truly can be achieved by even the grestest effort by only a few enlightened people, while on contrary, everything could be achieved to make society equal with just little efforts by the vast majority of us, if not all.
Really appreciate Mr. Belafonte's contribution to society and humankind. However, I am concerned about the seating used in this interview to accommodate his age and stage for an hour long conversation. Was the chair his choice? #SetDesign #CulturalArts #HarryBelafonte #Discussion
Harry Belafonte is such a class act. I would love to be able to emulate his gentlemanly qualities. Also, I wouldn't mind looking as good as he does at 89. My dad was a little jealous of him because my Moms thought he was so handsome. LOL!
Harry B was indeed a powerhouse for justice...and, of course, his music is awesome. I also deeply admire his sustained engagement to JAMAICA - 'island in the sun', land we love!😅😢
Harry Belafonte is Not African-American, He is a Black American, But He is West-Indian American, Caribbean-American or Jamaican-American. Lovely Interview Though Black and African-American Are Not Interchangeable.
Earths kitt said Harry said a black woman can do nothing for his career. He was a black man who wanted to be white. That’s the worst kind of black man.
America had some very embarrassing citizens there and still do. And they considered themselves superior and knowing better than ANY person of African descent; but look at the way they showed WHO they were and Some still ARE. So sad how they wanted to deny greatness to someone who IS
