Outreach support is also being provided by San José Parks, Recreation & Neighborhood Services’ Anti-Litter Program. Middle school and high school students in the City of San José are invited to submit up to five short poems that inspire people to put their trash into public litter cans, protecting nature, wildlife, and our streets. Content may inspire awareness, personal responsibility, connections to community and environmental responsibility. The contest will be juried by professional poets and community members who will select the winning poems that will become permanent artwork affixed to 500 new public litter cans to be installed in San José business districts in 2019. In addition to the winning poems being creatively featured on the litter cans, prizes will be awarded to honorable mentions. Submissions will be accepted on line at the contest website: www.litter-ature.info. Young poets are encouraged to work with short form poetry, such as haiku and/or tanka, a form similar to a haiku, with a 5-7-5-7-7 syllable count.

Final open slam in the 8x8 series. Wednesday, August 13 — Jacob Rakovan is an Appalachian writer in diaspora. He is the author of The Devil’s Radio (Small Doggies Press, 2013) He is a 2011 New York Foundation for the Arts Fellow in Poetry and recipient of a 2013 National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship.

Gabriela Denise Frank I’m Gabriela Denise Frank, and I’m here on behalf of Seattle Arts & Lectures with Matt Gano and Aaron Counts, Seattle poets and co-founders of the Seattle Youth Poet Laureate (YPL) program. Thank you for being here with me this afternoon. Aaron Counts Hey, thanks for having us. GDF Yeah, I’m really excited to talk to with you. I just met Bitaniya Giday who is the current Youth Poet Laureate for 2020 and 2021. We had a wonderful conversation a few weeks ago. Matt Gano Fantastic. GDF So, to set the stage, tell me how this program began. What is it, and how did you come to start it? MG So, here’s what happened. We were at a poetry reading for Roberto Ascalon at the Massive Monkees Studio. Roberto had a feature of a series of poems that he was working on, and he had a feature set up there, and a mutual friend of ours, Christa Bell—who’s also a phenomenal poet and playwright and all-around incredible artist—approached me and mentioned that Michael Cirelli, who was one of the founders of Urban Word—which is the New York Youth Speaks chapter—was starting a Youth Poet Laureate program across the country and looking for pilot cities to start this program to partner with Urban Word.

  • Abstract One Love: Collective Consciousness in Rap and Poetry
    Abstract One Love: Collective Consciousness in Rap and Poetry of the Hip-Hop Generation by Austin Harold Hart April, 2012 Thesis Director: John Hoppenthaler Major Department: English (Literature and Poetry) This study aims to offer an understanding of hip-hop culture through which three concepts are elucidated: (1) the existence and dimensions of a collective consciousness within rap and poetry of the hip-hop generation (Allison Joseph, A. Van Jordan, Terrance Hayes, Major Jackson, Taylor Mali, and Kevin Coval); (2) a poetics of rap—to parallel the influence seen/suggested among the selected poets; and (3) an analysis of the manner(s) in which the poetry of these more serious, academic artists reflects an influence of hip-hop culture. My thesis suggests that these poets are indeed influenced by the culture in which they grew up, and in their verse, this influence can be seen through linguistic playfulness, sonic density, layered meaning and usage through form and content, and the connection to a larger cultural, collective consciousness fed by specific social bodies. Poetic analysis, as well as studies of vernacular and oral traditions, has allowed me to explore these concepts and theories from a wider spectrum, and with regard to the work of the poets, an original perspective. Providing a deeper understanding of artists, their identities, places, and dreams within their work, this study begins to offer some insight into notions of the ways in which individuals might participate in cultural conservation.

  • Text Production Oral Presentation Spoken Word Performance Text Production Oral
    Text Production Oral Presentation Spoken Word Performance Text Production Oral Purpose To provide you with the opportunity to: Demonstrate and understanding of the interplay between what authors present in texts and the experiences, ideas, values, and beliefs of readers. Demonstrate and use language skills and techniques to create personal, persuasive texts that address the meaning and intention of the task. Description of assessment The aim the task is to convey your thoughts on a topic of particular personal interest; this can be small or large. Words and stories have the power to effect people and in a spoken word piece the speaker is emotionally involved with their material and as a result presents in a very personal and powerful way. Persuasive language aims to manipulate the audience into accepting a particular point of view or prompt them to react in a particular way; the approach to the subject is often subjective. Create and present a Spoken Word Performance on a topic negotiated with me. A key part of this piece will be how you present – the way you use your voice as a tool. You may support your oral with a multimedia presentation if you wish; this could be PowerPoint, video, www.voicethread.com or some other form. Assessment conditions An oral presentation up to a maximum of 6 minutes. Please hand up a recording (audio or video), transcript of your presentation and the PowerPoint thumbnails/Voicethread etc link if used. Some guidelines Begin with an opening/line/image/introduction which grabs the reader, sets the tone, or strongly conveys your point of view.

Modeled after the popular 14-year-old series at the Bowery Poetry Club in New York City, four poets who occupy different places on the continuum from page to stage—from the National Book Award to the National Poetry Slam—read "popcorn style," with no set order and sometimes not even a set list in an ongoing poetic conversation.
