loshmi, Benjamin Zephaniah, the Birmingham poet, writer and actor, died today at age 65 after an illness. I first knew him from Peaky Blinders. He was an inspiring man, a commenter and builder of a counter-culture to capitalism, envisioning a different way of life.
Here he is talking about growing up dyslexic, in an inspiring video suitable for young and old alike.
Rest in power.
