Robeson, Paul Robeson.

Doesn't get more simple than that. :)

Paul Robeson was a giant of a man; a singer, actor and activist that should be better known than he is. I've heard that Steve McQueen (the director, not the King of Cool, obviously) wants to make a biopic on Robeson. Long, long overdue.

  1. Dang Commie. Actually, I admire the guy and can see why in his time Communism seemed better than what America had to offer. Incredible talent.

  2. Before learning about Thurl Ravenscroft, I often wondered if Tony The Tiger was a secret Communist.
