Summary
<p>Carvens Lissaint is an excellent human and an award-winning poet. He is also covering Washington, Burr, and Lafayette/Jefferson in <em>Hamilton</em> on Broadway. The Carvens Origin Story is INSANE. The Carvens Hamilton Origin Story is EVEN MORE INSANE. Carvens talks about how <em>In The Heights</em> changed his life (Lin came out during intermission during <em>In The Heights</em> to chat with him - which would NEVER happen now), his experience growing up in Harlem with Haitian parents, and how he literally had a Hamilton in his bank account before he booked <em>Hamilton</em> on Broadway.</p> <p>Urban Dove: <a href="http://www.urbandove.org/">http://www.urbandove.org/</a></p> <p>Urban Word: <a href="http://www.urbanworld.org/">http://www.urbanwordnyc.org/</a></p> <p>Brave New Voices slam champion Joshua Bennett performs "Tamaraʼs Opus at the White House Evening of Poetry, Music, and the Spoken Word on May 12, 2009: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U5BwD8zOeM">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U5BwD8zOeM</a></p> <p> </p> <p>hispanicfederation.org/donate</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
