What is a "slam"?
A slam is a competitive event in which poets perform their original works before an audience, often featuring a combination of spoken word, performance, and audience engagement. Slam poetry emphasizes both the delivery and content of the poems, encouraging poets to express their emotions and ideas with energy and passion. Participants are judged by audience members or appointed judges, and scores are often given based on criteria like creativity, performance style, and emotional impact. This dynamic form of poetry has gained popularity for its accessibility and ability to address social issues, personal experiences, and cultural themes, fostering a vibrant community of poets and fans.
