'Straight Talk' with Scratchie D - 'my life is a journey'
Last night on DBS radio's 'Straight Talk' program Delia Cuffy-Weeks and Kimara Hurtault hosted Scratchie Dan( aka Densley Stephens aka Montgomery Richards aka Old School) and myself (Adom Philogene Heron) to talk about Scratchie's life story on their program.
With his usual candid and rugged eloquence Scratchie shared the memories of his early life as a 'notorious criminal' between 'Gwada' and Dominica, and then reflected on his more recent moral and spiritual refashioning into the figure of working 'family man' and 'big man in society'.
Scratchy also comments on some of the issues facing youth in today's global internet moment, looks back at his time in prison, his relationships to his mother, aunties and elder sisters who stood by him throughout his notorious criminal life, and also spoke of his excitement at recently becoming a grandfather.
I will not share anymore since I hope you will download and listen to the full show by clicking the Green box below:
A big thanks once again to our hosts Delia and Kimara for having us on the show
