The key ethnographic issues I will discuss will include:

•The African griot* roots of dub and spoken word•Spoken word and rap, what’s the same?•Is spoken word poetry being appropriate•The slavery tradition and North American oral poetry•Spoken word and the oral tradition historically

Everybody’s got a story that’ll break your heart.-Amanda Marshall
