Afro-centrist Rastafarian who used drugs and died of cancer. Oh, and he was a musician. As an afro-centrist, he was celebrated, although other (fill in the blank)-centrists might be considered racist. The double-standard rolls along.
And the counter-culture urban legend circulated for years that he was really murdered by the CIA.
He was so Afro-Centrist, that he left his wife to live with the White Prize in his final years.
