A Pick For The Hair Of Black Kids Who Don’t Wanna Be Gangstaz is a choreo poem piece that follows the story of 6 poet friends readying themselves for a slam poetry competition. When they take a break from rehearsing, they travel down a long and weighted path as they play a game confessing their deepest secrets and fears pertaining to the black community. Historically the adolescent voice of the black community has always been loud, but not often heard. They are sexually abused, kidnapped, ostracized, demonized, and forcefully succumbed to the cards dealt by society. It is their age plus their survival through these experiences that makes them gangstaz. While their voices continue to be ignored, others inside and outside their community continue to advocate for them with tainted tongues and minds.
