Date: Thursday, March 4, 2010
Time: 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm
Location: Auditorium
A platform for poets, storytellers and musicians to share their works and the inspiration behind them in an intimate setting. Additionally, each evening will feature well-known talent. Hosted by Ber-Henda Williams with DJ Andre Royster featuring poet Dimonique Boyd.
Dimonique Boyd is an admitted confessional poet, most of her poems are short glimpses into pieces of her life. Though best known for her love and erotic poems, her writing delves into the socio-political, religious and Hip-Hop realms. She sees her poetry as both an outlet and an outreach. She is unafraid to give the most personal parts of herself to her audience because she feels that it’s important to be a voice for who fear that they’re alone or don’t have the words to express how they feel.
By popular demand, she self-published and released her first volume of poetry, This is How I Feel: My Life in Verse. Her book chronicles her life’s journey from ages fourteen to thirty.
