Speaker, Author & Musician, Keith L. Anderson, PhD.

“My music, spoken words and poems come from the heart. They are my messages of love. Through my music I try to get people to understand, we all must be able to set sail for the land of equal opportunity. We may not all be in the same boat, but make no mistake, we are all adrift, paddling like hell on the same sea of tears. The only way we all make it to shore, is by loving and caring for each other. I try to relay this very message through my music, spoken words and poems. Love Conquers Hate!”
