#GeorgeMichael was considered a legend long before his passing.
From breaking records to refusing to be gay-shamed, here are five reasons why his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is well overdue.

#OnThisDay 1981 Bobby Sands died in Long Kesh prison after 66 days on hunger strike. He & the other hunger strikers protested for special status as political prisoners rather than criminals. Sands was an elected MP at the time of his death. He was 27 years old.

“They won’t break me because the desire for freedom, and the freedom of the Irish people, is in my heart. The day will dawn when all the people of Ireland will have the desire for freedom to show.
It is then we’ll see the rising of the moon”. - Óglach Bobby Sands
George’s family and George Michael Entertainment would like to congratulate the other legendary inductees and of course to all the wonderful fans and those who voted every day for George, thank you for your continued & loyal support.

We are incredibly proud to learn that George will be officially inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame later this year - he would have been honoured to be included in such esteemed company. 🤍
On this day 1981, the Irish hunger strike reached its 60th day.
“I was only a working-class boy from a Nationalist ghetto. But it is repression that creates the revolutionary spirit of freedom.” - Bobby Sands, Óglaigh na hÉireann.
Republicans won't do SHIT when it comes to gun violence, but try to tell me to calm down.
NO.
We can't calm down. People are dying everyday while we wait.
There aren't a lack of policy solutions to the gun violence epidemic. There's a lack of courage among my colleagues to stand up to the gun lobby.
We can save lives by banning assault weapons, repealing the industry's broad immunity, and requiring background checks on all sales.
