Poet Obbie West joins me this episode. He is driven & passionate to say the least. His discovery of poetry changed his life & provided an entry point to his advocay work. Along the way he was married for a time, became a father, & served in the U.S. Army for 20 years. Hailing from South Central L.A. he has gone on to perform & present both nationally & internationally. I was fortunate enough to grab a few hours out his of day. Enjoy!
