Harry Belafonte is the entertainer-activist extraordinaire of his
generation. Mr. Belafonte will share the struggles, tragedies, and
triumphs he has experienced throughout his illustrious career as a singer,
actor, social activist, and humanitarian.
It's a rare opportunity to see
one of the most influential equal rights activists of the century.

Its free, entertaining and important.
That's my stand.
