7. The words of Paul Robeson
which Harry quoted were especially striking to me. Robeson impressed upon Belafonte to keep showing people that all our differences are our strengths. He told him to keep bringing out that different cultures have much to teach us, if we can put our fears aside and just watch and listen. (He said it much more poetically, of course.)

Wish I had heeded your advice, and taped it! Harry Belafonte never fails to inspire!

Thanks so much for the heads up!

Kanary
