VIDEO:  John Sinclair: 21st Century Man
 
 
For young people in Michigan looking to engage their community and make a difference, there are some perfect home grown examples to follow. Take John Sinclair for instance. As a young man in his twenties, John Sinclair changed the world as the state's most outspoken leader of the 60s counter culture movement. Nadir spoke with Sinclair recently about activism in the 21st Century.
