“Lonnie Holley on the possibility in a zillion grains of sand”

As the New Year begins, we recommend giving this interview with Lonnie Holley by The Creative Independent a listen or read. Lonnie talks about the need for perseverance, both historically and personally, and how creativity is a life force for withstanding and confronting hard times. “Hope needs to be work.
