A Busboys and Poetry Event hosted this week by Twain Dooley
Mr. Dooley is affectionately known as "Uncle Twain" throughout the poetry and story telling communities. His wit and insight has tickled audiences since 1994. He has been on ten poetry slam teams, taught workshops, hosted events, and slain dragons. This married father of three wishes only to spread the funk throughout the land.
FEATURING: M'RELD GREEN
This talented wordsmith is more than a poet; M’Reld serves as an advocate for change and an artist responsible for her generation. M’Reld speaks the naked truth as she performs her poetry, speaking on a range of topics, which include social injustice, HIV/AIDS epidemic and everyday life issues. Her dedication to the generations to follow is shown through her daily teaching and working within several art programs linked to the Chicago Public Schools, as well as, the special events that she does weekly to support the knowledge and growth of youth. M'Reld is a staple within the community at events that promote peace and encouraging the students&leaders of the future to control their destiny
