About the Movement
Power 2 The Poetry is a performing arts organization specializing in spoken word poetry. We promote freedom of expression, and provide a platform for underrepresented demographics in our community including but not limited to: people of color, LGBTQ+, women, youth, people with different abilities, people with mental health issues, etc. Raising awareness to social, cultural, political, and personal issues. Addressing topics which cultivate crucial and courageous conversations. Empowering our audience to engage in dialogue and action for meaningful change. We are “Warriors of Light” on a mission to express, expose, and ignite!
Power 2 The Poetry is a movement providing a platform for all voices. Fostering a climate of culture, diversity, and inclusion. Marginalized groups constantly deal with inequalities such as oppression, discrimination, racism, and prejudice. This is unacceptable! We take responsibility for the disparities in our community by creating opportunities for positive and necessary change while inspiring others to do the same. We are edutainers (educators and entertainers), leaving people inspired, empowered, and educated. Walking away with newly discovered insight, knowledge, and consciousness. Opening hearts to truths that are regularly ignored. We are a megaphone for those in the community whose voices are silenced and pushed aside. Power 2 The Poetry advocates for what is fair, true, real, and right. We refuse to be silent. Remember your voice is a powerful tool. So, use it!
