Blues Singer Otis Taylor Receives HS Diploma After Being Expelled Due To Hair Discrimination In 1966
Happy with how his life turned out, Taylor shared that he has no regrets about his decision. “The wrong happened a long time ago. So being a Black man in America, I’m going to deal with wrongs,” he said. “My kids went to college. My wife loves me and we’ve been married for 37 years. How can I regret?”
Taylor is still making music and his 15th studio album, Banjo, is available across all streaming platforms.
