"YOU are WORTHLESS" -the economy
I fully agree with what she's saying, but all slam poetry must come with the obligatory http://videosift.com/video/Anything-can-be-a-slam-poem-if-you-say-it-like-this
I also enjoyed her clearly having picked up little bits of native accents so each word sounded like she was from somewhere else.
TED-clint smith-how to raise a black son in america
All videos on the internet are slam poetry now. Didn't you get the memo?
So TED talks are now just slam poetry?

Henry Rollins Rant - Freedom & the Internet Are Under Attack
I know, I fucking hate freestyle...Almost as much as slam poetry, fast-food, and television...
Dude...really?
Fuck you old people!
I'm interested to hear what people think about what these teens are saying regarding their generation, and the older generation, and how each one regards the other.
*quality for hopeful opinions/discussion and i enjoy slam poetry in general
Also would like to see the text if anyone can find it. I was unsuccessful.
To J.K. Rowling, from Cho Chang
All slam poetry should be prefaced with http://videosift.com/video/Anything-can-be-a-slam-poem-if-you-say-it-like-this

Did anyone else have a problem understanding her through the echo?
And WTF woman?!? You have no 'right' to be adequately racially represented in someone else's story, especially a fantasy story. If you feel you need that, write your own.
Or should someone make a ranting slam poetry video about how pissed off they are that the actual story of 47 ronin doesn't have any white people in it? I mean, just because there were almost none in japan at the time is no excuse, right? (instead, I'm pissed off that they inserted one in the new movie, we didn't need Neo in Edo)
Man with OCD Recites Poem About his One True Love
did more research, this guy doesn't have OCD, he's just a slam poetry performer and actor. Watched several of his other poems and he uses a different persona for each poem's theme. From sitting smoking a pipe to dressing in drag for a comedy one, to stuttering performing a King "speech" poem to this OCD act he put on.
decent actor I guess. But after seeing his website and learning he didn't have ocd, it sorta changes it.
Dear Straight People
Initially I had the same reaction. Then it occurred to me that this isn't "homosexuals making generalizations", it's just one person making really shallow and trite observations. A performer who doesn't have the imagination or wisdom to find deeper truths. And that performer happens to be a young gay person who hasn't yet gotten past the "self obsessive" stage of coming out. I'm guessing it would be hard to have a conversation with this woman about anything other than her sexual identity.
This is the slam poetry equivalent of a comedian getting on stage with hackneyed material:
"hey, what's up with airport security? AMIRIGHT"
"you ever notice how white people dance all bad? AMIRIGHT"
I don't get how this was slam poetry either. Is it because she repeated the same line 3 times at 1:30? Does slam poetry mean repeating yourself, sounding angry and not rhyming?
This performance makes me think that the Women of the World Slam Poetry 2013 competition had no more than 3 entrants and at least one of them was a mute.
heterosexual ≠ closed-mindedness
apparently (point in case, above), homosexuals can make erroneous generalizations about entire groups of people based on specific (poor) examples...
I hate shit like this.
Slip of the Tongue
Only in slam poetry can an angry woman at a bus stop cause so much introspection. "Rejection never sounded so sweet"... thanking his lucky stars he dodged that bullet.
Dear Straight People
Dear women, you have emotions that cause people to pause and care. When I see you crying, it makes me want to slap you. Some people are forced into their heads to confront their demons when they don't even know what they are...
All of my socks have holes in them and they're colors I can't quite describe and I don't know if I'm even wearing them sometimes. But I know one of my socks when I see it and I know by careful discernment what foot to put it on.
SLAM POETRY TO YOUR FACE, CUNTS.
Dear Straight People
Dear Bitch;
Sorry to hear you're angry and gay, that's what slam poetry is for, carry on.
