A man of many talents. Thank you for this interesting story Tara. Music to stir the hearts and minds of a frustrated and previously ignored people. Oh my , deja vu? We listen today to those who would change music that totally fit those times.

The best part of these stories is they bring to life our history. I think Hospkinsin’s story would make a great movie. Thanks for sharing.
