Stars Honour the Life and Legacy of Chadwick Boseman: "Thank You For Your Presence"
77
"Fell asleep crying. Woke up crying. I don't know why this one hurts so badly. Maybe it's because we lost a literal Black superhero. Maybe it's because your grace, class, kindness and dignity is so rare. Maybe it's because you had to suffer in silence for so long, while some speculated, cruelly. Maybe it's because we didn't need to see another Black man's life cut short. Maybe it's because your Denzel-anointed legacy had so much more to offer. Maybe it's because you felt like ours with every role you chose to embody. Maybe it's because God wanted your light a bit closer.
"You will be so missed. Thank you for everything."
