Harry Belafonte is a name that is ICONIC in many ways and this is a sad day for fans of the folk music and civil rights activists. The barrier-breaking singer Harry Belafonte was at the age of 96 when he passed.
He Created a name for himself in the 50s (when racial segregation was still a widespread issue), this incredibly talented singer was a driving force for civil rights.
This barrier-breaking singer is a name that won’t soon be forgotten because he managed to climb the charts with his music while pulverizing racial segregation at the same time. Sadly, his spokesman (Ken Sunshine), confirmed the singer passed away this morning in the comfort of his own home. Per The New York Times, his spokesman did confirm his cause of death was related to congestive heart failure.
