He was such an amazing actor. I can't believe he had been off the big screen for 20 years.

I first saw him in The Wilby Conspiracy. The Blood Diamond of the 1970s in a way.

RIP Mr. Poitier, and thank you.

This is spooky.

I usually skip RIP threads
However, I thought this something to be highlighted

Pointier was fully aware many people of color, including viewers and fellow artists, looked up to him.
"It's been an enormous responsibility," Poitier told Winfrey. "And I accepted it, and I lived in a way that showed how I respected that responsibility. I had to. In order for others to come behind me, there were certain things I had to do."

And you know what he didnt do?
He didnt drug and rape 72 women.
