Acerca de esta escucha

 Considered one of the world’s greatest living poets, Nikki Giovanni carved out a revolutionary legacy during the civil rights era with poems that uplifted the experiences of Black Americans. Decades later, Nikki’s writing and interviews have grown increasingly personal – offering insight into her childhood, health struggles and thoughts on growing older. She shares her story in the new documentary, “Going To Mars: The Nikki Giovanni Project.” Nikki tells Tom about being involved in the birth of hip-hop, why artists should go to space, and how she packed a club of 100 people, including guests like Morgan Freeman and Nina Simone.

Great interview. Ms Giovanni is such an interesting person, that the podcast could have become a series! I loved hearing some of her story and wish she were a relative in order to hear more of her thoughts and ideas. She has a very unique perspective which I resonate with.
