Mikeala's delivery is slaying me!!! How rhythmic, how powerful, how proud. I live. Brandon's piece was great as well, he sounds so confident and his content is woke. What freaking talented kids.
Tomorrow is my grades poetry slam. I read my poem in front of my class, I was chosen. Tomorrow, i’m reading my poem in front of the whole fifth grade tomorrow. My poem is about living in anxiety, And been through bullying, And my mom being told she had 12 to 17 months to live. Wish me luck! 😊 Edit: Ok, So I didn’t win. But that’s fine. Except, I kinda cried in the middle of it. 😂
Wow! I am speechless. These two amazing students just inspired ME in a way I can explain! Had to watch it three times and each time I got chills down my spine. Ready to use it with my Poetry unit this week!
Awesome! I don't know much bout this Mike drop thing I been hearing about but my mouth dropped great job and truly inspirational very well put together
1:43 the girls poem with all her talent sounds aggressive instead of just proud. I am sad to see her talent doesn't go by the gentle and kind way but she is taught to sound this harsh. I hope only good things will follow and she will find a more loving voice. The boys poem and his way of sharing it is wonderful, on point. Demonstrates the learning process. Big round of applause.
Dominique Almeida What's sad is critiquing such a gifted young girl's voice because it doesn't fit arbitrary standards of "gentle" and "kind". I think she sounds amazing and her delivery is meaningful...but most importantly, it's HERS.
the title "if you give a child a word" alone is a massively powerful implication.

Amazing to see 2 young people step up and share their passion. Thanks for not only stepping up but, stepping out. Well done!
Thank you Mikeala Miller and Brandon Sanders.

Very nice spoken word. Unfortunately, I couldn't really hear the young girl's spoken word. Overall, great performance. I love the confidence!
one of the best examples of slam poetry out there
I like the poem entitled 'Now You See Me'
👏👏

I feel like I’m in church ; - ;
This was pretty good! I liked it 🙂
What a good job they did
Thank you for sharing !

The girls poem was good but she couldn't say it properly so it sounded like she was preaching
This is boring
Be kind… THEY PUT IN EFFORT JUST TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! JUST MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE WHO WORK HARD.
