« A celebration at the failed attempts to silence the Native voice. A collaboration between the Native Hip Hop Festival Society and Vancouver Poetry House featuring Savage Family, Enigma the Poet, Ostwelve, Dani Lion, Tawahum, Sakawnee Baker, Sekoya Baker and Brenn DaCity.

Canada’s largest alternative literary festival, Verses Festival of Words, is at it again with a 12th year of dynamic programming celebrating a broad intersection of poetic artists, including spoken word and page poets, storytellers, singer-songwriters, improvisers, and more! Come be swept away in a wave of word-bending wonder, where activism and art take centre stage. Experience the transformative power of words – written, spoken and sung.

This event will be broadcast on POETV
