    He must have been some man ,, he championed the color barrier in Hollywood
    Won many film awards including first black actor to win an academy award
    later in life he was awarded the Presidential medal of Freedom ,, plus much more
    and without a racial or sexual blemish in a 70 year career --- much respect Sir Poitier

    Happy trails and say hi to Ms Betty
