About  [Edit]

Everyone has something to say. Everyone has something unique and essential to offer the world. And that includes you. Speak Your Soul encourages the thoughtful and creative expression of every individual, the exchange of ideas and application of passion through action in the human community. On speakyoursoul.org you will find ideas that incite your mind, poems that stir your soul, and community resources that inspire you to act.

Speak Your Soul encourages every individual to discover their own voice and power and live out their unique and essential identity in mind, body, and spirit. Speak Your Soul is a young organization seeking community partners and Spoken Word poets to partner with and feature on speakyoursoul.org. Though based in Tacoma, Speak Your Soul is growing a poetry community in Hilo, Hawai'i and seeks to support and expand the presence of Spoken Word poetry across the United States. 

 

June 2009 Update:

 


Welcome to the June update from Speakyoursoul.org

June is a great month for poetry at Speakyoursoul.org. Check out the list of events below - there are several excellent and unique options.
As always, there is the Tacoma Speak Your Soul Open Mic at Vinum Coffee & Wine Lounge, but you should also consider special events like Projectiles (with Speak Your Soul Poets 6 Deep and Vanilla Soul), LadyFest (with talented Tacoma Poet Tammy Robacker) and the Reading Extravaganza at King's Books (featuring poets like Speak Your Soul's Robert Lashley). Big Island poets, remember the the Planet Cafe now has a regular poetry night on 3rd Fridays. And if you missed the Volcano Poetry Slam on May 29 - it was great - be sure to catch the next one.
