The 90 Years of Sidney Poitier Blogathon is here!

Yes! We are finally coming to this point where people submit and read the entries for the Sidney Poitier Blogathon! I’m honestly very impatient to read all these articles celebrating this legendary actor.

As soon as you’ll submit your entry, I’ll add you to the roster. Remember, the event starts today, February 18, 2017 and ends Monday, February 20, 2017, on Sidney’s birthday. Make sure to be on time, but late entries will be accepted to because: 1- this is not school (we’re here to have fun), and 2- I myself sometimes submit late entries.

So here we go!
