    This is what happens when greed, arrogance, and political ambitions become prevalent, everyone has his own self-interest and agenda at hand. Mr. Belefonte who has traveled this road from the beginning with MLK they have exposed themselves as bickering infantile & petulant children unable to carry the torch that MLK gave to them. This is indeed an insult to Mr. Belefonte whose integrity is well above this kind of nonsense.

    Just watched "Sing Your Song" & enjoyed it thoroughly. I think Mr. Belafonte could have stepped into the larger-than-life shoes left by the assassination of Dr. King. My Generation X & Gen Y have been sorely void of national leadership the way my parents' generation had. Try as he might, Jesse Jackson did not quite fit the bill. It is my prayer that once Pres. Obama second term is over, he will throw himself into this cause.
