Bob Marley Part II: His Militant Years

I am temporarily releasing this season 5 series in anticipation of February's release of One Love: the Bob Marley Story!  Thank you for supporting the podcast enough to get it to this point! This is the second of four episodes in a series which details the life and legacy of Jamaican musician Bob Marley.  This episode's focus is on the political violence that has plagued Jamaica; culminating in the assassination attempt of Marley at 56 Hope Road and the Smile Jamaica concert two days later.  It also goes in-depth into Marley's Rastafarian faith.
