What is This?

With technology becoming the main way of communication, many classes now are requiring their students to create and submit projects through online resources. Well, that is exactly what this is. A final project for an English class. But this is so much more than just a simple project. This blog is about something the fascinates me, something that gives me passion, gives me a voice. Which is exactly what the purpose is. How spoken word creates voice. How it is influential. Throughout this blog you will see postings of videos, interviews, personal interviews, even some history. Because this is a project which I will be graded on, it is forcing me to dig deeper than I ever have. To understand more of the art of spoken word. But after this class is done and after this is submitted, I hope to continue doing me research and posting more and more that I find. 

So, my dear readers, whether you be students (past or present) of this class, instructors, spoken word artists, or just simply stumblers, enjoy the simplicity of this. But also, please, also enjoy the passion behind every word and every video you my come across on this site.
