Today is John Lennon's 80th birthday. It marks the fact that John has been dead as long as he lived. Sadly, however, his legacy is often tarnished by misinformation.

Here is a thread debunking that misinformation. Because he deserves his legacy and he deserves truth. #LENNON80
Before I start, I'd like to say that I am aware that John made a lot of mistakes. He did do some things that I will never justify but he also didn't hide away from those things. He is hated because he was honest. He never denied any of it.

I look up to him so much.
1) John Lennon was not a "wife beater".

This is a rumour that has been spread around as a result of miscommunication for years. John Lennon hit his first wife, Cynthia Powell, in the early days of their relationship at Art College.
