(PUBLIC NEWS SERVICE) -

In today's short episode of “Highly Recommended”, I'm here to tell you it's time to try a poetry video project! Harness students' excitement over the creator economy and the survival of TikTok and get them interpreting poetry through a medium that only keeps getting MORE relevant to communication today.  First things first, let's talk mentor texts. There are some VERY cool poetry videos online that take their interpretation in wildly different directions. I suggest taking a look at Amanda Gorman's “Earthrise,” Ada Limón's “A Poem for Europa,” and Rudy Francisco's “Complainers,” which I'll link for you in the show notes. As students watch, have them sketchnote ideas for CRAFT moves. What do they notice about the combination of talking head shots vs. B-Roll? Is their background music? How did the producer make cuts and transitions? How does the video bring out the meaning of the poem? How about the audio? Once students have started to warm up to this idea of interpreting poems through video, it's time for them to choose a poem of their own to interpret. Now you could easily make this a project to help them dig deep into a famous poem of their choice, OR you could let them record and create around an original piece of their own, depending on your goals. They should print up a script of their poem which they can annotate with ideas for visuals and how they will want to read the poem aloud. Parallel to their written script, they'll want to do some storyboarding, sketching out the order of their film clip videos. Now there are two free platforms I'd recommend for this project. Vocaroo, which we've discussed many times, is perfect for recording the audio easily and snagging the MP3 file. Then they can upload it to Canva, which will allow them to combine photos, videos, and audio of their own with photos, videos, and audio available on Canva. This is the most technical part of the project, so I've made you a little tutorial video for how to put together a video in Canva (which I'll link in the show notes). While there will be a learning curve on learning to put together a video, it's a learning curve well worth trekking. This would be a great starter project leading toward video options on future choice boards, documentary projects, PSA projects, and other types of video projects in your class or department arc.  Inside Canva, your students will be able to sequence text slides, video clips, and photos to create a visual sequence that represents their interpretation of the poem, and overlay it with their audio recording of their script. They can even add music at a low level behind their voice in different sections if they wish.  If you've been waiting for the right moment to get your feet wet with video, let this be your sign that YOU CAN DO IT! It's OK to launch a project without total confidence in the tech. Your students may just know a lot about this and be able to help each other and you, and there are not many tech problems out there that a quick tutorial search on YouTube won't fix. I've seen some wonderful student work from the poetry video project, and so can you!  Links Mentioned: "Earthrise," by Amanda Gorman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwOvBv8RLmo "Complainers," by Rudy Francisco: https://youtu.be/nrh1JlP8R2E?si=8BvEmi0mIr8NCAEJ  "A Poem for Europa," by Ada Limón: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgWbeDNPD6o How to Create a Video in Canva: https://sparkcreativity.kartra.com/videopage/createavideo  Go Further:  Explore alllll the Episodes of The Spark Creativity Teacher Podcast.

This is a special episode dedicated the art of spoken word poetry. One of our listeners wrote to us mentioning the name of Rudy Francisco and from there we fell down the rabbit hole of spoken word and slam poetry. We talk to Rudy and two other greats of the art, Bianca Phipps and Neil Hilborn. They are going to perform one work each and we will round it out with a conversation with Sam Van Cook. Sam is a founder of Button Poetry that represents and publishes so many of these great artists. Trust us, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

This week on Black & Published, Nikesha speaks with Rudy Francisco, author of the poetry collection, Excuse Me As I Kiss the Sky. Rudy is a renowned spoken word artist who has published two previous collections: Helium (2017) and I'll Fly Away (2020). As a spoken word artist, Rudy said taking his work from the stage to the page allowed him to grow and write about more than one topic. In our conversation, Rudy explains how  he tries to show the accuracy of his humanity instead of a balance between joy and pain, happiness or sadness. Plus, the reason he believes the rift between poets who focus on writing and spoken word artists is closing. And, how his jump to the page was thanks to a few friends who turned their YouTube channel into a publishing house. Support the Show.Follow the Show: IG: @blkandpublished Twitter: @BLKandPublished Follow Me:IG: @nikesha_elise Twitter: @Nikesha_Elise Website: www.newwrites.com

Rudy Francisco is an author and one of the most prolific spoken word poets of this generation. In this episode, we discuss his own upbringing from immigrant parents and how even though his own father was present in the home, that didn't translate to him being present in his life. We also talk about his own daughter and how important it is for her to not only be aware of her own identity but also know her father is always going to be there and that he truly loves being her dad.

Each week Megan is asking the Final Rose Tarot cards what we can expect from this week's episode. This week's shuffle resulted in two cards: Page of Mirrors and the Knight of Rings. Page of Mirrors is called The Gossip, and Knight of Rings is called the Late Bloomer - and for this episode, the cards are HIT-TING. We're talking like, batting a thousand - just like our World Series Champs, the Atlanta Braves. It's week three of Michelle's season, and the drama has arrived. We see a Top Gun style group date, featuring the gorgeous Jay Ellis, a one-on-one truth or dare date with Rodney, and a spoken word poetry date, hosted by poet Rudy Francisco. We bear witness to the much promoted “jacket gate” and… while the Jamie drama was bubbling last week, this week it is boiling over. This week we are highlighting Rodney Mathews (IG Handle). Rodney and Michelle had such a sweet and funny one on one, we just have to love him! Danielle has her reservations, but Megan gets her on the Rodney train and they are headed to Stan Town, USA! We also say goodbye to zaddy Spencer Williams and Mollique Johnson.

I often look at the work written and shared by the incredible poet Rudy Francisco as food for thought. Every single piece teaches me something, reminds me of something, or gives me new and different perspective. There are so many things to celebrate in the month of May: Mental health awareness, AAPI Heritage Month, Jewish American Heritage month, wildfire awareness and prevention, foster care month, Military appreciation and still so much more. I'd like to celebrate as much as possible while still holding true to the initial purpose of this podcast - beginning conversations and inspiring people to create and share their own works. That being said, I think Rudy touches on many of the boxes while still providing classic food for thought. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/sincerelybluejaypoetry/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sincerelybluejaypoetry/support

Approximately 41% of Americans go to church on a weekly basis, and a whopping 60% have stated that they at least attend church periodically and/or believe in God. But what if religious belief in itself is actually a form of delusion? What if believing an afterlife and God’s existence without any quantifiable proof could be considered a mental disorder? Listen in as we explore the psychological side of religion, while answering questions such as, “when did the founders of famous religions go from being considered a little wacky to being idols (I’m talking about Joseph Smith, L. Ron Hubbard, and even Jesus Christ)?”, "is faith in a higher power in itself delusional?,” '' are there any psychological benefits to going to church and being a member of a religious community?, and “when does religious belief go too far?” It’s an episode that you won’t want to miss!  Slam Poem: “Your God” by Rudy Francisco (11:04-13:30) Commercial Break Media: “Why Religious Beliefs Aren’t Just Silly” by School of Life (27:49-30:50) Also featuring clips from Family Guy (S13E9; S12E18), South Park (S7E12; S16E1), Robot Chicken, ABC News, Sarah Silverman’s “Religion Is Crazy” sketch (2015), Eddie Izzard’s “the Origin of Christianity” sketch from Circle (2000), and Family Feud.

This is not your ordinary podcast chat about spirituality, meditation practices, and self-awareness. This is a rowdy, fiery, real conversation (complete with some bleeped out expletives! Haha!) where Karen Kenney, a spiritual mentor, memoirist, and all around badass, and I dive into who we are as humans on this planet –both as individuals and as a collective. We talk about how we choose everything in our lives, whether we know it or not, and what we can do to remember this innate power, to remember who we are, how to strip away the BS, how to heal our wounds, and remember that WE ARE LOVE made manifest. So many great teachings here! And fantastic analogies (“sitting in a sh--ty diaper”!)! Karen also answers the burning questions we all have: who am I and what is my purpose? Omg – you HAVE to listen to this one! * Today's poems: Hafiz's “The Earth Braces Itself” and Rudy Francisco's “Mercy, after Nikki Giovanni” * You can find Karen Kenney here: karenkenney.com and her podcast is The Karen Kenney Show, which can be found on all the podcast platforms.

"I'm still learning to love the parts of myself that no one claps for." - Rudy Francisco   I had the huge blessing to be a mentor in a leadership training this past weekend. It's something I do once a year and it always fills me up with gratitude. About 3 years ago, I took the training myself, and it was transformational to say the least. To this day, it's still a huge part of me learning to own my worth. Since I was back in that environment this weekend, I was reflecting on how far I've come, but also what I still am working on. I remembered a quote that I discovered back when I was fresh in this new mindset of possibility, responsibility, and self-love. It's simple and to the point, but every time I read it, it reminds what owning my worth really means. I recorded a short and sweet episode around this quote to encourage each of us to love the parts of ourselves no one claps for. It's where a worthfull life begins.   LISTEN ON: Apple Podcasts  |  Spotify  |  Google Play  | Stitcher Show notes: Links I mention: Ascension Leadership Academy Follow Christine: Instagram | Facebook | Pinterest

Moreover, Rudy Francisco proves to us that it’s true that storms don’t last forever, and there’s always that light at the end of the tunnel. Rudy fervently reminds us nothing is ever permanent. No matter how tough times get or how difficult the situation may be, you will survive and get through it. So keep your chin up, keep your head held high, and keep fighting. Remember that you are blessed and given this life because you are strong enough to live it. Above all, you will thrive despite everything. As the saying goes, “The flower that blooms in adversity is the rarest and most beautiful of all.” Source: Rudy Francisco – “Complainers” (NPS 2014) ( https://youtu.be/p8NVLq2fGLc ) Hosted by Sean Croxton ( https://seancroxton.com/ ).
