    Dick Gregory lived an amazing, revolutionary life. A groundbreaker in comedy and a voice for justice. RIP

        I'm very sad. He gave me the best advice in life, when I asked him the secret to longevity, "Drink more water son!" #RIPDickGregory

        Thanks for bringing his story to the masses. Seeing @JOEtheMORTON's portrayal in "Turn Me Loose" taught me so much about Mr. Gregory's life.
