Product Description
THIS VERSION FOR PERSONAL HOME USE ONLY.Every Child Is Born a Poet follows the life of Piri Thomas from his beginnings on the rough streets of El Barrio/Spanish Harlem to his place as one of the leading chroniclers of life in urban America. Thomas’ autobiographical novel, "Down These Mean Streets," burst onto the literary scene in 1967 presenting a searing portrait of immigrant life, racial conflict, and urban poverty. His language popped with street slang and flowed with a bilingual rhythm that embodied the hybrid cultures he inhabited. The film captures Thomas’ unbridled creativity with a mix of documentary footage, spoken-word poetry performances, and colorful dramatizations.Copyright (c) 2003 When in Doubt Productions.
