War, Motherhood and Music

In his new autobiography "War, Momma and Me", author Jaycee Kesh Akinsaya describes his experiences of growing up during the Liberian Civil War and his mother's wisdom that guided them through it all.  For the seventh installment of the T&E podcast, we spoke with Kesh on how he and his mother used music as a compass to navigate through trials of political unrest, and furthermore how music help him shape his understanding of spirituality, sexuality and personal identity.
