Summer Season Officially Kicks Off…

Wednesday, June 10th, 2009

It was a beautiful night, sidewalk chalked in masterpieces, the DC Guerrilla Poetry Insurgency kicked off their 2009 Summer Season (we’ll be in Dupont thru Sept).  Out of the gates, Laurie and Bobbie, Damian armed to the jawbone, pointed at Eryca’s kitten.  Brandon summed up his feelings with one word, “dam.”  Virgin Walrus rocked sapling prodigy, Lacy reminded us why we were there and Mo getting ready to protest you.  Courtney our feature lyrically floated ….remember your goodness.  Arinze and Alexis with earthly breezes properly eulogized.  Goodson provided a cacophony of sounds and words while the insects flirted with Zaccai and Cathryn oded to the bed bug.  Ravens eyes were glued like paste as Jessica shared her voice fighting against hatred and discrimination.   Next month’s feature – one of DC’s dopest MC’s  – community hip-hop powerhouse Bomani “D-Mite” Armah.  Here’s a preview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HuCPadxPVI&feature=channel_page.   July 13 @ 7pm @ Dupont Circle Fountain!

The DC Guerrilla Poetry Insurgency (GPI) is an anti-authoritarian, collaborative, pro-humanity artists' collective incorporating music, rhythm, spoken word, community and resistance.
