Bloody good actor and genuine groundbreaker for African Americans in films. For some reason, I remember the movie To Sir with love from a kid and never thought about him being black and everyone else white. He portrayed black people in roles that, at the time, very few black people actually did.
Also loved the theme song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EV1qmmMwc9M
To Sir, with love

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
