Harry Belafonte: Always An Activist

Harry Belafonte: Always An Activist
Wed, 5/16/2012

"Sing Your Song" is an up-close look at Harry Belafonte, calypso singer, theater and film actor, patriot - and friend of Occupy Wall Street. Belafonte, a champion for worldwide human rights, is one of the truly heroic cultural and political figures of the past 60 years.

Told from Harry’s point of view, the film charts the life of a boy born in New York and raised in Jamaica who returns to Harlem in his early teens, where he discovers the American Negro Theater and the magic of performing.

The film also presents a brief look at the Civil Rights Movement through the eyes of an insider, someone who, despite his high profile, wasn’t afraid to spend time in the trenches.

From Harlem to Mississippi to Africa and South Central Los Angeles, Sing Your Song takes us on a journey through Harry Belafonte’s life, work and most of all, his conscience, as it inspires us all to action.
