DR. TORRES, WE APPRECIATE YOUR
EXPERTISE.
WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ALL MORNING
ABOUT CHADWICK BOSEMAN’S LASTING
IMPACT ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND
CERTAINLY IN HOLLYWOOD, WHERE
THE TRIBUTES ARE POURING IN THIS
MORNING.
OPRAH WINFREY AMONG THEM,
TWEETING OVERNIGHT, WHAT A
GENTLE, GIFTED SOUL, SHOWING US
ALL OF THAT GREATNESS IN BETWEEN
SURGERIES AND CHEMO.
THE COURAGE, THE STRENGTH, THE
POWER IT TAKES TO DO THAT.
THIS IS WHAT DIGNITY LOOKS LIKE.

I’M SO SHOCKED AND HEARTBROKEN
ABOUT CHADWICK.

HE ALWAYS SEEMED TO CARRY OUR
ANCESTORS WITH HIM AND NOW HE

I CAN’T EXPRESS HOW MUCH IT

THANK YOU FROM THE VERY BOTTOM

REALLY NEED IN A TIME LIKE THIS.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> THAT MOMENT, I THINK CAPTURES
WHAT SO MANY PEOPLE FELT ABOUT

>> I WAS WATCHING THAT LAST
NIGHT, AS I WAS LOOKING THROUGH
TWITTER, AND THERE WAS A MOM
WITH HER SON, WHO SAID, YOU HAVE
GIVEN MY SON A BLACK SUPERHERO
TO INSPIRE TO BE.
IT’S REALLY POWERFUL.
