Poetry Groove: Jigaboo [VIDEO]

Here’s the poem, Jigaboo, performed by spoken word artist Jackie Hill Perry at Rhetoric 2012, an annual Christian poetry slam in Los Angeles. The young lady hits traditional religion as many of us know it, rather hard but before you prejudge, listen. Based on the reaction of the audience, many other young people feel the same.

Hmmm…Christian poetry slam…that would be nice for the Miami area also.
