I MET KWAME TURE IN THE EARLY 1970s.  HE HAD A POWERFUL INFLUENCE ON ME.  I MET JOHN HENRIK CLARKE IN EARLY 1980s.  HE LIKED ME AND SAW SOMETHING IN ME.  I LOVED HIM VERY MUCH AND I TREASURE MY MEMORIES OF HIM.  HERE IS A PHOTO OF ME AND DR. CLARKE WAY BLACK IN THE DAY!  I HAD JUST INTRODUCED HIM AT A LECTURE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.  THE PHOTO IS BY ROLANDO MARKLAND SANCHEZ.
