In 1977, when Britain broke diplomatic relations with Uganda, Idi-Amin declared he had defeated the British and added "CBE" (Conqueror of the British Empire) to his title. Radio Uganda then announced his entire title:

"His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Alhaji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, CBE, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular."

In a career that spanned over 50 years, photographer, filmmaker, musician, and author Gordon Parks created an iconic body of work that documented American life and culture, with a focus on social justice, the civil rights movement, and the African American experience.

Parks’s career extended beyond photography to encompass filmmaking, music, and writing. In 1969 he became the first African American to write and direct a major feature film, The Learning Tree, based on his semi-autobiographical novel. His next directorial endeavor, Shaft (1971) remains an icon of blaxploitation films. Parks continued photographing, publishing, and composing until his death on March 7, 2006
