In this episode, I interview my friend, Sarge, also known as James Robinson.
Sarge is an 80-year-old Vietnam vet and a jazz musician. His wisdom goes well beyond his years. There aren't many of his ilk left in the world, and he should be heard and respected. Now, one does not simply have a quick chat with Sarge. His stories take time to develop and are full of teachable, and often funny, moments. In the first half of the interview, he tells the story of his connection to Malcolm X. Also, his friend James Hunter was at the recording, but didn't want a microphone. You may hear him chiming in on the sideline.
