Poets that come from marginalized backgrounds tend to be the ones most disproportionately affected by this. This qualifier slam came into existence to combat that and grant individuals a chance to get to an international tournament by removing that financial barrier. 12 poets battle it out for a chance to win cash prizes, trophies, and a one of a kind all expenses paid trip to an international poetry slam!
