Dick Gregory (Rest In Power)
Global News Centre
Dick Gregory (Oct. 12, 1932 — Aug. 19, 2017) has passed on from the American scene. A man of all seasons, as a stand-up comic he fought in the battle for civil rights, sometimes through mockery, and at other times directly as an active opponent of racial bias in politics and in ordinary life. Now his personal battle for social justice is over. His legacy is not just his victories in that battle, but also lives on in the activism of the many who have been inspired by him.
Well done, Dick Gregory!
Requiescat in pace.
