Keith McBrown
I am the ceo and
founder of an out of the box company called Righteous
Linguistics. The company plans to use the arts to inspire
the world. As a writer/speaker/poet/teacher myself I
understand the importance of the arts. That's why along with
my company I plan on taking them to a totally different
level. For over two decades I have used spoken word to be a
voice for and to the people, especially the youth. I have
had pleasure of doing poetry at some of the most un thought
of places throughout the east coast and south. The military,
FBI, colleges, schools, Tv, radio, and many historical
events are just to name a few. Remember situations and
circumstances onlybimpact the word..people change it...
