Banjo Player in Georgetown , 2011

I enjoyed conversing with B.M. Williams. We talked about how many people did not know that the Banjo was an African instrument. He was homeless at the time and he shared with me how to survive homelessness. Occasionally, he would earn enough money playing his banjo to stay in a hotel.
