Rest in Power, I've only seen two movies he was in but have always respected him for his activism. "The Angel Levine" (with Zero Mostel) and "White Man's Burden" are worth watching even the the latter is low budget and has Travolta in it.

He was a singer first. Actor second. Great at the first. Good at the second.

Here is the late Harry Belafonte singing a song...penned by the late Gordon Lightfoot.
