In this episode of In Between the Lines, Mary sits down with The Spectator’s journalism teacher, Mr. Eleveld. Eleveld is the co-founder of EM Press and is the author of The Spoken Word Revolution–a well-regarded anthology that highlights the intersection of hip-hop, slam poetry, and performance art. Mary and Mr. Eleveld discuss the slam poetry movement and he shares his insights on the evolution of modern literature and self-publishing. Intro music courtesy of LFA electronic music students.
