Southern Icons: Mel Chin

There are very few people who live up to the being called a Hero(or Super Bad Ass for that matter,) not for a momentary act but by the extent of their career, dedication, and spirit. Mel Chin is someone I consider both. His works are never about himself or the advancement of his career, rather they almost always attempt to reconcile Art with public service and social awareness. It is hard to do justice to such a career through a simple blog article. There isn't a book I can direct you to or a single source to read search for yourself this work is truly amazing.
