This Is Nashville

Words are meant to be spoken


Listen Later

It's the day before Thanksgiving. Regardless of how you spend your holiday, the vibes will be cozy. And what better way to manifest that than with some spoken word?

In this episode, we'll hear from some of Nashville's best spoken word poets. We'll learn about what exactly spoken word is, and how it can be used as a tool for education and community building. Then, we'll close the episode with some performances from our guests — so get ready to snap and sigh introspectively!

This episode was produced by Elizabeth Burton. Special thanks to Lakeithia Nicole and Char Daston.
