Poetry slam
A poetry slam is a competition at which poets read or recite original work. These performances are then judged on a numeric scale by previously selected members of the audience.
==History==
American poet Marc Smith is credited with starting the poetry slam at the Get Me High Lounge in Chicago in November 1984. In July 1986, the slam moved to its permanent home, the Green Mill Jazz Club.〔(Marc Smith website: History page )〕 In August 1988, the first poetry slam was held in New York City at the Nuyorican Poet's Cafe and hosted by Bob Holman.〔Aptowicz, Cristin O'Keefe. Words in Your Face: A Guided Tour Through Twenty Years of the New York City Poetry Slam. New York: Soft Skull Press, 2008〕 In 1990, the first National Poetry Slam took place in Fort Mason, San Francisco, involving a team from Chicago, a team from San Francisco, and an individual poet from New York. Soon afterward, poetry slam had become so popular that people were able to make full-time careers as slam poets; they traveled around the country and performed.〔 In 2001, the September 11 attacks actually had an interesting impact on poetry slam. This was because many performers were stuck in cities they had been performing in before the attack, and they could not get home because flights were down.〔Aptowicz, C. O. ''Words in Your Face: A Guided Tour Through Twenty Years of the New York City Poetry Slam''. New York: Soft Skull Press, 2008〕 After the attacks a new wave of poetry slam started within New York City with the focus on the community of poets coming together to speak about and try to understand the terrorist attacks.〔 , the National Poetry Slam featured 72 certified teams, culminating in five days of competition.〔http://www.washingtonpost.com/express/wp/2014/08/15/d-c-s-beltway-poetry-slam-triumphs-at-the-national-poetry-slam|Washington Post, D.C's Beltway Team Wins National Poetry Slam 2014〕 Da Poetry Lounge was started in Hollywood, CA in 1998.〔Johnson, Javon. “Manning Up: Race, Gender, and Sexuality in Los Angeles’ Slam and Spoken Word Poetry Communities.” Text and Performance Quarterly 30.4 (2010): 396-419〕
