Alphonso Makell in Brooklyn, Maryland. He is a very old of friend of Jacob. He has spent a very long time in prison
and used to be an active member of
the Black Panther Organisation.
I loved to listen to his stories. He is a very warm
and interested person.

Before we went back to NYC Jacob did me a huge favor and we stopped by at my friend Ashok Gangadean,
He is a Professor of Philosophy at Haverford College. I met him during my work for the dropping knowledge project "table of free voices" in Berlin. He is a brilliant mind and warm hearted funny person.
