 Social Media Intern Wanted: Street Poets has recently established a social media presence on the web, and we are looking for an intern who can help us manage and grow our online community. The intern will focus on maintaining and expanding our current online presence on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, YouTube, and the Street Poets Website. ĘThe project will culminate with the intern developing a Social Media User Guide for our permanent staff. Interns will also have the opportunity to facilitate poetry workshops and mentor youth.From the Apache Rez... 
When Street Poets first steps onto the San Carlos Apache high school stage, we are met with a wall of indifference that feels more like a muffled scream. "Why are you here anyway?" seems to be the question lying behind the students' eyes. We respond in the universal language of poetry, in waves of words, verses lifted from the depths of our own wounds and those of our ancestors - mining the darkness for a spark of truth to inspire a response, a connection, a conversation. Jason, a former gang member from South Central LA and a ten-year veteran of our program, brings his own story to light with this piece: 
STREET POETS Inc. is a poetry-based peace-making organization dedicated to the creative process as a force for
individual and community transformation.
