I think he is a class act... He "doesn't think of himself as a "colored" man but rather, as a man," which was a quote from him in the movie Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. I wish we all could do that...get past our skin colors and just be accepted as people.

I love this man. He is a complete and total class act. Today's actors can learn from Mr Potier. He is a Caribbean King. Still gorgeous!

"whereas blacks never invented a thing in this world."
Alexander Miles invented the elevator. Charles Drew developed blood banks.
