About this episode

Earlier this year John Amaechi came to the Center to read from his book, Man in the Middle, and speak with blogger, Clay Cane. Clay had this to say about his interaction with John - 'I’ve done countless celebrity interviews and John Amaechi sticks out to me as one of the most authentic people I've had the pleasure to sit down with—deeply engaging, interesting and an overall genuine person.' Morry Campbell edited the piece and had this to say - 'In editing the footage, I found Amaechi to be intelligent, thoughtful and articulate, a far cry from the stereotypical jock. He spoke of his time in the NBA, his views on homophobia, the difference in the political climate for gay and lesbian people in the U.S. versus England, and life in Utah (Amaechi for a time played for the Utah Jazz).'
