@southern.black.truths: Solomon Linda was a South African, Zulu musician who created the song Mbube in 1939—music that would later evolve into the global hit The Lion Sleeps Tonight, featured in The Lion King. Despite generating millions worldwide, Linda passed away in 1962 in poverty—leaving behind a legacy that sparked a long fight for justice as his family battled for the royalties he never received. #BlackHistory #BlackExcellence #BlackHistory365 #BlackHistoryFacts #AfricanAmericanHistory
