In Preforming Arts, we wrote and preformed slam poems. The Poetry Slams we did this year about civil rights taught us to speak our minds through poems. We had written everything we wanted down, and then trimmed what we didn’t need. This resulted in beautifully written poems that were meant to be spoken. With the help of body language and tone of voice, the products turned out wonderful.
My slam is at the link. It is about Rosa Parks starting the Montgomery Bus Boycott. https://docs.google.com/a/hightechhigh.org/document/d/1lnHWWHlTJSndQjx__IVsdpB-ol_LZo66AgUo8CF-RF8/edit
I also wrote and artist statement here. https://docs.google.com/a/hightechhigh.org/document/d/1rePMlU96C2-vKKadULToK2R34gBv5qBw3xjk0i1-llM/edit
I truly enjoyed this project! (Especially since I love to sing and act) Slam poems are a wonderful way of expressing oneself. I look forward to my next chance to preform!
