Episode 77: Slam Dunk

In the 77th episode of The Radio DePaul Podcast, Amy and John step onto Chicago's slam poetry stage and learn about the community impact it has. From its humble beginnings, slam poetry has been a form of spoken word performance that has become increasingly relevant and integral to voicing Chicago's social issues, with slam poetry being a unique, multi-modal performance art that lives and breathes the culture of the city. A huge thanks to Kwyn Riley, Davon Clark, and Caroline Watson for their interviews.
