(2,145 posts)Bernie ought to clip this into different snippets for a TV ad. Saw Belafonte years ago and after the concert, he walked out on stage and started just talking to the audience about civil rights. I've had great respect for him ever since. We were in the second row right in front of him. It was a powerful time.
