5:23 I don't see the presence of Robeson in comparison to Poitier as the same. Robeson was physically a rare man. And in his cultural views public or unapologetic in a way poitier never was.
6:23 I didn't know poitier was tone deaf, wow! Nike, do you think that was part of his speaking style?
8:37 good point Nicole, doing behind the scenes is the long term work
10:04 Nicole, I didn't know he won for "a love of ivy"
17:57 yes, Nicole, sidney poitier comprehended the importance of superstars being together and audiences influenced by that.
20:57 the original writer of t"to sir with love" didn't like the film, but Poitier I think always tried to be the teacher in film
22:46 Nike, what did he achieve as the ambassador to the bahamas in japan?
24:40 I notice no talk of the diahan carroll relationship in this time
27:46 Nicole honest position, the role in a movement is various for others. Poitier and Belafonte were not the same in their role in the movement but eternal friends.
Great show:)
Maybe do a show on soundtracks for black filmshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2_tAIlu3Os
