Almost two dozen poets took the stage at the 10th Annual Poetry Slam at Clarkston High School, May 13.
The poets represented all grade levels at the high school, including 2013 CHS alumni Trevor Torres. Poets were selected based off video submissions and printed copies of their poems, which was done so as to evaluate the poets’ performance along with their poetic ability.
Proceeds benefit InsideOut Literary Arts Project, which has led over 50,000 Detroit youth on adventures using poetry to become better citizens and students.
