A tribute to Maya Angelou, who passed away this week (April 4, 1928 – May 28, 2014). From October 2004 and November 2008, when Sedge talked with:
MAYA ANGELOU, a literary voice revered globally for her poetic command and her commitment to civil rights, best known for her series of seven autobiographies, including I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.
GUY JOHNSON, Maya's son and an acclaimed author in his own right, having published such works as Standing at the Scratch Line and Echoes of a Distant Summer.
TONI MORRISON, dear friend of Maya's and author of Beloved, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, here with her latest, A Mercy.
BÉLA FLECK & VICTOR WOOTEN, banjo virtuoso whose film Throw Down Your Heart tracks the banjo's roots back to Africa, and bassist extraordinaire.
KA EHU KAI, the fresh four piece Hawaiian band featuring ukulele, 6-string guitar, bass guitar and keyboards will life your spirits with the power of mele (music/song).
