Slam Poetry! Poems for Generation X!

Taylor Mali reads/performs a "slam poem" about teachers and what they make. This is the coolest poem reading I've ever seen!

"I make a god damn difference, What do you Make?!"

Brilliant.

    Get a long overdue culture injection from the man like Benjamin Zephaniah...

    Which poets are you into? You like Ted Hughes over Simon Armitage or maybe even the star of this clip; Benjamin Zephaniah...get involved and share your culture!

    Since you went all musical on me I thought i'd continue down that musical path.

    No-one sings poems more beautifully than Jeff Buckley.

    This brought tears to my eyes; I'm already going to school for education, but now I'm even more inspired.

    RIGHTEOUS!

    I've seen this on paper, but not performed (and it was edited a little). Thanks for posting this. Teachers do make a difference. Inspiring.
