Famous Black Men Who Are Proud Feminists
Harry Belafonte
The iconic Harry Belafonte has used his celebrity to advocate for civil rights and women’s rights since way back in the 1950s, when oppression was at an all time high. H e has always been a man of the people and stood up for causes that others were afraid to for fear they would lose their careers.
As a co-chair of the Women’s March in 2017, Belafonte voiced his firm support of women’s rights and his hope to end oppression against them forever. “Let us use this century to be the century when we said we started the mission to end the violence and oppression of women. Let us never, ever let our children become the abusers to our women that we permitted in our lifetime.”
