Poets In Revolt

As America’s largest youth writing organization, 826 National has helped give voice to hundreds of youth writers living in America’s most underserved communities. But how could 826 bring equity to America’s classrooms and inspire students to take pen to paper to create that change?

Introducing “Poets In Revolt. A Call to Action by Young Writers.” A powerful collection of poems published by 826 National’s youth authors calling out for justice. To promote the book and amplify the cause, we created a gripping spoken word trailer and visually exploded the book. The film sparked a movement across social, encouraging students of all backgrounds to find voice in their writing, giving them the ultimate tool for real and lasting change.
