520 "Ever had an emotion or experience you wanted to express,
but didn't know how? This guide encourages teens to find
their voices, step up and speak their truths, and
articulate what matters to them most--both personally and
politically--whether it be boldly to an outside audience
or just privately for themselves. Young adults are reading
and writing and performing poetry more than ever before,
and yet it's the most difficult form for schools to teach.
Written in short, easy-to-digest chapters, My Shouting,
Shattered, Whispering Voice includes prompts and
inspiration, writing suggestions and instruction, brief
interviews with some current popular poets such as Kim
Addonizio, Safia Elhillo, and others, and poem excerpts
scattered throughout the book. My Shouting, Shattered
Whispering Voice offers ways to express rage, frustration,
joy, and sorrow, and to substitute apathy with creativity,
usurp fear with daring, counteract anxiety with the joy of
writing one word down and then another to express vital,
but previously unarticulated, thoughts. Most importantly,
here you can discover the value of your own voice and come
to believe that what you have to say matters"--|cProvided
