Nikki Giovanni

Tonight I saw Nikki Giovanni at Bucks County Community College

It was so nice to go to a poetry reading...but it was so much more than that.

Political, funny, living out loud

She rocks...

66 and better than ever

I bought this Hip Hop Speaks to Children

and can't wait to look and listen to it with my son

She said one thing that was really great:

"Stories heal"

And she spoke of when all the soldiers come home, before anything else,

they will need places like community colleges and safe places

they can be to tell their stories.

Thank you Nikki
