This week we present poet FreeQuency.

Born in Kenya in 1991 as Mwende Katwiwa, FreeQuency is a spoken word artist living, loving and working in New Orleans, LA since 2009. The daughter of two lifelong educators, FreeQuency was raised believing in the power at the intersection of education, art, service and activism. Known for her social justice work and poetry, FreeQuency has been described as 'challenging', 'dynamic', and it has been said on numerous occasions that "the room isn't the same after hearing FreeQuency spit". You can find her at freequencyspeaks.com
