Gil Scott-Heron Passed Away
This legend has passed on. Gil was one of the voices during the Black movement of the 70s, giving us classics like "Pieces Of A Man" and "Winter In America". Who could forget the poem and song “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised”. It is still used and spoken in lounges, classrooms and poetry slams to this day.
Gil has left us with so much. He will be missed.

The Stuff
- Wonder Man
- I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here
