Jimmy Cliff helped bring reggae to America in the 1970s with his film and soundtrack, “The Harder They Come,” and last month he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Cliff tells Kurt about growing up listening to radio broadcasts from New Orleans and helping Bob Marley get his start. And he performs live in our studio.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
