Guitar virtuoso Mdou Moctar gets political after home country experiences coup

This was a surprise, and joy to see last night, on our PBS (public/educational) TV News Hour. Half listening to news headlines, this story came on and instantly caught my ear, and the rest of me followed. An amazing portrait of a musical prodigy with a unique talent and also a desire to share his perspective, on politics, guitar legends and life, all part of the same ocean....

Fascinating individual, talent, perspective....
