In this episode of BaddestChaplain, we hear from Nick George. We explore his poetic journey from its inception in personal expression to his work in community and communication.
We discuss generational perspectives on art and activism, the importance of curiosity in writing, and the responsibility of artists to contribute to the collective experience.
Our conversation also touches on the challenges faced by young people in curating their identities amidst overwhelming media consumption and the transformative power of hip-hop as a tool for understanding and expressing the human experience.
