Website of the Week
Welcome to Christina and Maath’s weekly webpicks.
Slam Poetry
It isn’t just the writing of the poetry or the act of reading it publically that is life-changing for a young slam poet. Slam poetry creates opportunities for young people to be taken seriously by their peers and decision-makers. More than 250,000 people between the ages of 13 and 24 participate in Slam poetry programs and competitions throughout the United States. Get to know more about Slam Poetry:
