It was great fun on the radio show today to discuss queer spoken word poetry and share some examples that really moved us. As we noted on air, some of these poet performers really depend on visual aspects of their performance to convey their full message. We recommended checking them out on line if you can't get to see them live. Below are the poets we shared hyper-linked to on-line videos of their work.
