Spoken word performance by Mark-Anthony Johnson, on police brutality during the Los Angeles May Day march, New Orleans, bus fare increase in LA, Obama, Clinton, Chavez, and who are real leaders of today. Performed May 5, 2007 at the annual Political Party for the Labor/Community Strategy Center where Mark-Anthony is a community organizer.
Quite good
As good as the best years of Gil Scott-Heron. Finally, I feel like someone has truly spoken about May 1!
Oh the pain of honesty – and there’s still so much more to say
You’re a superstar Mark Anthony Johnson. Pure poetic genius.
You’re awesome, we needed this, the true spoken word of our people. Very Impressive
Nicely spoken, and intelligently worded and thought through.
Truth.
Great talent, but I disagree with the assessment of Sen. Barack Obama – and it is faulty logic to imply that he was calling black and brown people lazy. The planet needs Obama NOW. Our kids need a person of color that validates the belief that they truly can be “anything they want to be”. He’s not perfect, and I’m not delusional. He has to play the game but he knows who he is and he knows what’s wrong with America. A Jesse Jackson approach will not get him in the white house. Peace

this is mad sick. I love it…I may not agree with every every thing that he says, but this brotha took it to another level.
I remember when spoken word was called reading a poem. Missiles are anything that can be proppelled through the air.
WOW…never heard of this guy…excellent :-)
Yeah!
This hit my spirit from the first word to the last!
Good Word is definitely flowing out of this brother’s mouth.
