Youth Speaks Hawai`i (YSH) is a non-profit organization supported by Hawai`i Arts Alliance which educates students between ages 13 and 19 in the writing and performance of slam poetry. They were invited to take part in a national gathering at Maketu Marae in Kawhia, New Zealand, working with young Maori from around the country as part of Kōtuia!
Youth Speaks Hawai'i members -- Jamaica Osorio, Ittai Wong, Jocelyn Ng and Alaka'i Kotrys -- came with their Slam mentor Lyz Soto and Matua Jonathan Osorio who shared with everone stories and histories of their people in Hawai'i.
