GrandMaster John Dinkins: World Champion! (Soundtrack: CamdenMusique)

While working on an upcoming project, I ran across the footage from my initial interview with GM Dinkins. I realized, as I rewatched, that, at the time, I was so focused on the martial aspects of the various Grandmasters' lives, I clearly overlooked some of the personal pronouncements that they chose to share.

In the case of Grandmaster Dinkins, of Brooklyn New York, his love and dedication to the martial arts was so well known that many would ask, after I'd mentioned my project THE GRANDMASTERS OF NEW YORK, "Well, have you spoken to Master Dinkins?" (they would also ask the same of Master Sabu). I was asked this by so many that it became clear that as far as Brooklyn was concerned THE GRANDMASTERS OF NEW YORK without Master Dinkins would be seriously suspect.

Fortunately, we were able to meet at his dojo, which is the oldest dojo in Brooklyn (as far as I know) and record this interview. It was conducted as one of his long time students and senior instructors (Master Jackson, whose voice and instruction can be heard in the background) continued the tradition of teaching martial arts to the children of Crown Heights.
