Time The Conqueror: Jackson Browne, Still Fierce

I love music. I don’t know how I would manage without it being part my everyday routine. I am not a shopaholic. I am not a fashionista. I don’t spend money frivolously in expensive stores or restaurants. But I buy music, and iTunes makes it easy. It’s become a weakness of mine, and may ultimately be my financial undoing.

Now, I know I created this blog to write about race matters, but today I feel the need to talk about Jackson Browne. That’s right, I'm talking about Jackson Browne (“JB”)--one of the most prolific and courageous artists of our time. The guy is flawed as hell, but he is a tireless activist and he never stops trying to shine a light on the truth, no matter how ugly.
