I actually read his book Slave Hunter, and it was such a good book. A lot of info about working with Perry and Janes in the early days. I totally recommend it. This guy is my hero, he is doing such a admirable job working freeing slaves. For those of you dont know who he is, you can see him all over Three Days the movie as Perry's right hand man. He is really tall. I follow him on twitter. I am pretty sure he doesnt have any contact with Perry anymore. Apparently after 9/11, when Perry was working with him on those slave missions, an article came out in the NY times that basically was inflamentory. At the time Aaron was getting threats from Al Quaida and other groups. So a lot of the musicians that Perry brought together for the cause freaked out. I really cant blame them, pretty scary stuff!! Wow, this guy is one of the "real people," He basically practices what he preaches. He has my vote.
