The BreakPoets

Editors from The BreakBeat Poets of Chicago facilitate a short open mic, featuring participants from the afternoon workshop and members of the local poetry and hip hop community. The editors then perform an interactive reading from The BreakBeat Poets, discussing the anthology’s genesis, impact, and the role of BreakBeat poetics in contemporary literature.
