Forging connections with an astonishing array of consequential players on the American scene in the decades following World War II -- from Paul Robeson to Ed Sullivan, John Kennedy to Stokely Carmichael -- Belafonte established his place in American culture as a hugely popular singer, matinee idol, internationalist, and champion of civil rights, black pride, and black power. --Publisher's description. 410 0$aDiscovering America series. 606 $aAfrican American civil rights workers$vBiography 606 $aMusicians, Black$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aActors, Black$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aAfrican American civil rights workers 615 0$aMusicians, Black 615 0$aActors, Black 676 $a782.42164092 700 $aSmith$b Judith E.$f1948-$01505741 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787177403321 996 $aBecoming Belafonte$93735550 997 $aUNINA
