So very touching and well written/spoken by you. I look forward to listening to more podcasts. It's just wonderful hearing you again. You have a very healing quality about you in person and through your fiction and essays.
I want to hear more, a whole essay, on the all-Black Boy Scout troop!! I will buy 10 cups of coffee for that. I’m not kidding. That would be a treasure as is your little recollection of you and Sidney here tonight. You can’t make a mountain out of a mole hill when the Hill is already a mountain!! Double exclamation.

Brilliant!
Very good indeed. Thank you for writing, Andrew.

A lovely tribute for a lovely man, Andrew. Yes, there are worse role models. RIP Sidney Poitier
What an eloquent eulogy, for a man so richly deserving. In our age of ever burgeoning rudeness, he was one of a few bright lights.
