Podcast Outline: Brainstorm & Notes
Form: Performance Poetry
Poet/Artist I am Researching: Patricia Smith
Format I will be using: Co-Host Podcast: holding a conversation
Resources I have found so far:
- Construction of Identity Through Performance Poetry
https://ila.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/JAAL.00083
2. The Cultural Politics of Slam Poetry: Race, Identity and the Performance
My Guiding Questions: How does the way a poem is performed set both the tone and moos for the author’s writing? With the way a poem is performed, what literary devices help organize a clear performance for the audience?
What I want my podcast to teach my audience: I want my radio show to teach people how performance poetry is not only a performance for the artist but rather a personal experience for the audience. I also would like to show my viewers how in some ways performance poetry is more powerful than music.
