Only days after walking out of court in NYC a free man, XVX hip-hop artist, slam poet, and activist Jared Paul has launched his own booking agency in support of independent public speakers.
From Paul:
So, after years of agents not wanting to book for my polarizing, controversial, risky-ass work, I’m launching my own independent speakers bureau / booking agency for radical poets and teaching artists: “Strength of Doves Productions.”
The site will go live tomorrow and we’ll be at the National Association of Campus Activities New England this weekend!
IF YOU GO TO A COLLEGE IN THE NORTHEAST I’D LOVE IT IF YOU COULD EMAIL YOUR ACTIVITIES OFFICE AND ASK THEM TO SEND A REPRESENTATIVE BY OUR BOOTH.
I don’t make a lot of money doing this shit, you can buhleeeeve that. I want more folks to hear my work, so, it’s time to make some adjustments and be more strategic. I’m trying to do things smarter in 2014: for me, and my radical comrades.
For more information, or to book a workshop, poetry show, or speaker for your event, visit the Strength of Doves website.
