Introduction to its origin:
The inception of Spittin' Images took place in late 2005 in Providence, Rhode
Island in a small studio above the Cuban Revolution located in the heart of the
theatre district. Political activist and local filmmaker, Napoleon X invited
four poets to each write a poem based on his short-documentary film, Black Men
Can Fly. The film briefly illustrates how George S. Lima, a black aviator,
educator and activist overcame poverty, prejudice, adversity and ignorance to
become an American hero. During the process of composing their individual poems based on Lima's life, the
artists discovered that many of Lima's life experiences mirrored their own lives.
This common thread became the impetus for joining forces to form a collective
performance group. The group was originally called, Protown Princes of Poetry,
and later it was amended to Spittin' Images.
Spittin' Images is a fusion of contemporary urban rhythms mixed with Spoken Word
and influenced by elements of jazz, gospel, blues and hip-hop. Comprised of
award-winning slam poets and accomplished musicians, the trio performs
material that speaks to a universal audience while staying true to it
beginnings as an instrument for encouragement and social change. With an
emphasis on exploring the common characteristic found in music from Negro
spirituals to contemporary hip-hop, Spittin' Images endeavor to positively affect
the Black consciousness.
The group addresses issues such as social equality, racial discrimination,
fatherhood, and substance abuse with a variety of unique perspectives, hoping to
motivate others to become socially conscious citizens that strive to address
injustice in their community. Each spoken word piece artfully blends singing and
beat-boxing to encourage a dialogue that effectively challenges popular
stereotypes and preconceived notions of the black male identify.

When the lunch bell rang, I hurried to my room to spend at least 30 minutes reading the Bible and praying. I didn't yet know it, but I was developing what Christians commonly call a "quiet time".
