Sekou Sundiata influenced everyone from Ani DiFranco to Vernon Reid to countless other musicians/poets/spoken word/hip hop/and theatre artists. He collaborated with Rhodessa Jones, Craig Harris and many legends. Sekou died in 2007. I am so Grateful that I got to meet him/and see his work live. His work is truly a source of deep inspiration and direction for me.
You can view Sekou's 51st Dream State at the Walker Art Center
Hear Sekou talk about his work on NPR HERE.
