Watch Party: Crystal Good “Black Diamonds”

Program Deep Dives
Written By BRAHM

Poet Crystal Good takes the stage to rally and inform with her lyrical perspective of American history through a West Virginia lens—comparing and contrasting the 1921 Battle of Blair Mountain and the 2015 Baltimore Uprisings. Her passionate performance invites listeners to pay attention with the resounding question, “which side are you on?”

Crystal Good, member of the Affrilachian (African American Appalachian) Poets and founder of Mixxed Media, is hard to put in just one box.

She prefers: artist, advocate, and entrepreneur. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at crystalgood.net
