Cadets Attend Spoken Word Poetry Event in Albany

Cadets in the Creative Writing Forum attended a spoken word poetry event in Albany, NY. The event was part of a tour that renowned spoken word poets Andrea Gibson and Sarah Kay recently began. Sarah Kay, who teaches poetry internationally and has been featured in a Ted Talk entitled “If I Should Have a Daughter” began the event with three powerful poems about human experiences. She was followed by Andrea Gibson who is known for holding no punches when it comes to current social issues. Cadets had an opportunity to meet and take pictures with the two performers.
