Love his music, know nothing about his politics and activism, although could probably guess.
I have one of his 33's lurking around here somewhere.

Got into it when I was driving big trucks.
Especially appreciate the laconically delivered run-on sentences in his lyrics, that were almost rap-like back when they first came out. But every syllable of which was backed by a grin and a wink.
Worthy. quintessentially American.
May he RIP
