Ooh, that will work

Got a problem? Don't solve it. Poetry slam it!

"(Youth Speaks) is trying to create articulate, dedicated young people who want to see change in their futures," said program director Paul Flores.

Ah, yes, poetry slammers are taken very seriously and have great opportunity to bring about change.

[Milani Pelley] said she uses poetry as a means to express the problems she sees in the world on a daily basis.

"If I see something wrong, it gets me," she said. "Some people dance, some people draw, some people punch walls, but I just write about it."

Some people try to solve the problem, too.

Is this chick for real? The Regents decide to raise tuition and she expects that some people will dance to resolve their worries? Well...I guess that could work if you were naked and good-looking.
