Editorial: Harnessing the Power of Words; Spoken Word and Poetry Promote Peace

September 25, 2023

By Bakah Derick In the bustling town of Bamenda, a transformative event took place on Friday, 22 September, to commemorate World Peace Day. Spearheaded by talented spoken word artists and poets, this event harnessed the power of words to promote peace in our society. Through their passionate performances and thought-provoking words, these artists demonstrated the profound impact that spoken word and poetry can have in fostering a peaceful world. Spoken word and poetry have long played a vital role in giving voice to the voiceless and communicating the nuances of our shared human experience.

The beauty of spoken word and poetry lies in their ability to transcend social, cultural, and linguistic barriers. This universal language of the heart and mind enables us to forge connections, build empathy, and foster mutual understanding. So did Mottanni and Co at the World Pea
