For the second time ever, Poetic Pathos Youth Slam will be represented at the Brave New Voices International Youth Poetry Festival. As the 23rd Annual festival, it will be online due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Led by Poetic Pathos veteran Isa Meachum, age 19, the team will do their best to adapt to the virtual platform including writing group pieces.

Aside from Isa, members of the team will include Yasmine Saintjuste (19), Miya Walters (18), Kine Clark (17), and Natalie Blacker (17). This will be the first time at Brave New Voices for all poets except for Isa, who participated at Poetic Pathos’ first BNV back in 2017.
