Listen in to the first annual South Side Youth Poetry Duo Slam, featuring poets from Curie, Gage Park, YCLA, Kenwood, Lindbloom, TEAM Englewood, Urban Heroes, and Morgan Park. At this event, many of these South Side poets will perform for the last time this year. This is a chance to pay tribute to any senior poet who will be graduating in June.

This event is hosted by Tim Stafford and Dan Sully, who have appeared on Def Poetry Jam performing their duo pieces. It will be DJed by DJ Itch. This event is made possible with the support of Young Chicago Authors.

Recorded Friday, May 13, 2011 at the TEAM Englewood Auditorium.
