Legendary actor and entertainer Harry Belafonte celebrated his 95th birthday Tuesday with a star-studded celebration at Manhattan’s Town Hall. The event served as a fundraiser to benefit Sankofa.org, a non-profit organization he, his daughter Gina Belafonte and Raoul Roach founded 10 years ago. The celebration also marked the inaugural Harry Belafonte Social Justice Awards, presented to Angela Davis, Rashad Robinson, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Dr. Cornel West, Darren Walker, Hank Willis Thomas, former Attorney General Eric Holder and Congresswoman Barbara Lee.
