The world of slam poetry is as inspiring as it is intense. Five Brooklyn poets, selected to represent Kings County on the national stage, share their creative and training processes as they push themselves to deliver peak performances. Through their journey, we delve deep into the slam poetry community, and learn how the art form fosters healing, connection, and greatness.
