One of Azizi's posts (miss you, dignified lady)
names Rev. Carlton Pearson.

I just heard of Carlton Pearson for the first time yesterday.
But he has been news for some time,
only not for musical reasons.

National Public Radio, in 2005, profiled Rev. Pearson on a segment of their "This American Life" program. The title of Rev. Pearson's profile is "Heretic."
I did not hear the program, or take notice of Rev. Pearson's story,
in 2005.

Yesterday -- and the current year is 2018 -- NPR broadcast a re-edited, updated version of "Heretic." I overheard it while channel-surfing on my car radio, driving to a restaurant for dinner.

In the thirteen years since "Heretic" was first broadcast on the radio,
Rev. Carlton Pearson's story has been made into a film, Come Sunday, that will be on Netflix.
