On October 3, at the CUNY Graduate Center, I recorded a conversation between Bob Holman and Eleonora Fisco about the Spoken Word and Slam Poetry. They also discussed the important work poetry does in keeping languages alive, and they performed a few poems throughout, alone and together. Filippo Fabbricatore and Annalisa Guzzardi interviewed and guided this intriguing talk. You’ll find it in the Vimeo below. Enjoy.
