If you don't know, now you'll know...

The

Newsletter...WORD UP Edition!

When was the last time you sat down and had an actual unforced, face to face, conversation?

With all the cellphones, smartphones, Twittering, etc. ... Real human interaction is slowly getting fazed out. Sad, but truly the effect of too much technology.

Our cover gal and spoken-word artist, Ginn Williams, is all about making her voice heard and not afraid to use it to get your attention.

I met Ginn for the first time at a Refresh Rhyme Scheme spoken-word night at Sandrini’s not long ago. She stepped onstage commanding attention with a newly published book of poetry called, “Epic.” She smiled, then launched into a piece titled, “You’s a Fat B***h!” - a  poem about being big, beautiful, and proud. She killed it that night!

She believes in her work and was cool enough to come to our “Bakotopia Magazine 1-year Anniversary Party” back in ‘08 and perform. She took over the party, and continues to blaze stages to this day.

Bakotopia is proud to help introduce her to those in and out of the underground, along with all the talented local poets who will be appearing at the “Two Hours Inside” event happening on Sept. 4. Read about it and be there, yo! Thanks to this issue’s contributors and advertisers for making Bakotopia bump at all times.

Birthday shout to my wonderful son, Mark “Blitz” Munoz.
