Spoken-Word Magic: Reliving the Electric Vibes of The Griot Party Experience

The Griot Party Experience recognizes the legacy of Black Copper Brown and indigenous people in the Central District of Seattle and honors their contributions through hip-hop, spoken-word storytelling theater. On January 13th, the event, produced by Logic Amen, celebrated 50 years of hip-hop in Seattle and provided a platform for people to share their stories and reaffirm their humanity at Langston Hughes. The energy on stage was electric and made braving the cold weather worth it! Relive the experience and stay up to date with upcoming events at thegriotparty.com.
