Just like music, art and history, Philadelphia’s poetry roots run deep. And, thanks to artists like Philly 360° Creative Ambassador Ursula Rucker, Founder of Philly Youth Poetry Movement “Just Greg” Corbin, poet extraordinaire Nina Lyrispect Ball and the many other stellar wordsmiths our town produces – Philly poets still demand respect around the country for their skills with the pen, and definitely on the mic.
Oh, and I certainly can’t forget to take a moment and shout out Philadelphia Poet Laureate Sonia Sanchez. Sonia, the original spoken word artist, has been keeping the Philly fire burning bright for well over five decades.
