Artists use their voices to address their realities. The 1960s civil rights movement used spoken-word poetry to fight racial inequality. The Last Poets and Amiri Baraka were two of many artists who challenged social injustices via poetry.

The 1970s featured poet and musician Gil Scott-Heron. He delivered political concerns about unpleasant realities in his lyricism. This rhythm-message combination shapes rap. Thanks for listening!
