Event Description


Youth Speaks Presents the 12th Ann. Bringing the Noise for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Join Youth Speaks in celebrating our 12th Annual Bringing the Noise for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on January 19th at Herbst Theater. This event takes place on the night before Inauguration Day, and we want to start the celebration a day early. If you can’t make it to DC, than join us for night of inspiration and possibility.

Since it started in 1998, Bringing the Noise for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. has brought together young poets and performers in commemoration of Dr. King’s legacy. This event is a celebration of voice and eloquence from across all social boundaries; a celebration of the promise and potential of the next generation. In the spirit of Dr. King’s mastery of language, and his belief in the power of the spoken word to create social change, we have continued to present works that are relevant, urgent, and speak to the needs and demands of young people who are insistent on having a presence in larger political and social discourse, young people who refuse to be silenced and ignored.
