Says How do I get on the mic?! https://writeaboutnowpoetry.com/how-do-i-get-on-the-mic This will be a special edition of our poetry open mic where we'll be launching the debut poetry collection from S.C. Says through Write About Now Publishing. S.C. Says is one of the most stellar nationally touring poets and speakers in the country today. We promise this is the performance you want to see. Andre Bradford, a.k.a. S.C. Says, is an Austin based slam poet who has been performing slam poetry since 2013. He's toured and featured at venues and universities across the country, and his work has been featured in the Huffington Post, Write About Now, The Edge radio, The Culture Trip, and Blavity. He is a two time Austin Poetry Slam Champion, the 2022 Texas Grand Slam Champion, and is the author of the newly released poetry collection Golden Brown Skin. He also once popped a bag of popcorn without burning a single kernel, which is arguably one of his greatest achievements. His poetry covers a gamut of topics ranging from being mixed race, to gun control, to mental health awareness, to never settling in relationships. Slam poetry is an art form he loves due to its raw vulnerability and its ability to cultivate transparency and dialogues into many different walks of life.
