Kent Newburn, a sculptor and writer with a doctorate in religion and the arts, tells of being the guest speaker at a conference for teachers. On the last evening, a Nigerian man had been scheduled to drum with the thirty participants at the conference.

But he explained that he had to leave and catch a plane for his mother's funeral.
