Amir sulaiman poetry writer

A native of Rochester, New York, writer, activist, and educator Amir Sulaiman is a member of Goodestuff Entertainment, an Atlanta based collective providing culturally relevant programming. With a political consciousness that is profound without being preachy and stately without being stand-offish, Sulaiman has garnered the respect of such notables as Kevin Powell who invited the riveting performer to open for his State of Black Men in America Tour Kickoff held at Rev. Dr. Barbara Kings Hillside Chapel and Truth Center. Even media mogul Russell Simmons sat in awe as Sulaiman dropped science to a fervent audience during a recent taping of HBOs Def Poetry.

Peace, I really enjoy this brother...

He's young, so those energies are there... using "black" as a self reference is incorrect but nevertheless that comes with the ignorance that most people today all have... But his talent in presentation and penmanship and passion for wisdom is applaud worthy!!! Great job, brother. Love
