Hip-hop poet, Anthony, wows a large crowd with his personal and piercing spoken-word performance.

To Be Heard is the story of three high-school students who find their way into a dangerous poetry workshop that does not teach the "Roses Are Red" kind of poetry. Rather, it teaches the kind of poetry that changes lives and that only comes from the inside out.
