In this edition of "The G-Man Interviews", my special guest will share information he obtained about the Atlanta Child Murders over the last 20 years. This is the first time he has spoken publicly about what sources told him, and the revelations will be troubling for many in this country and abroad.
Daryl Davis has obtained unprecedented access to members of the Ku Klux Klan and white supremacist movement for more than two decades. He continues to meet with high-ranking leaders and members from all over the U.S., making him one of the most unique race relations experts and activists in the country.
Davis is an actor, author and lecturer who obtained his Bachelor of Music Degree from Howard University. He's also an accomplished Blues, Rock'n'Roll, Country, and Jazz musician who performs and tours regularly with his own group, the Daryl Davis Band. Davis has worked extensively with the Legendary Blues Band and Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley's Jordanaires, Percy Sledge, and Sam Moore, among others.
As an actor, he has appeared in the critically acclaimed television show "The Wire" and a number of stage plays and movie roles.
