As a kid growing up in Detroit in the 60's and 70's interested in drugs, politics, and music, the 6'4" bearded, hairy, revolutionary poet, scholar, activist, musicologist, and self-described, “race traitor,” the figure of John Sinclair loomed large. John is the man behind the MC5, Iggy and the Stooges, and the Founder of the White Panthers, later the Rainbow People’s Party. Their platform: A total assault on the culture by any means necessary, including Rock n’ Roll, dope…and fucking in the streets. John was a hero of mine, and still is. At 77, he still writes columns, does poetry, and lives life according to his ethos, “a vow of beatnik poverty.”
