Motown has a rich musical and cultural history.
Motown Mic: The Spoken Word was created to pay homage to our Black Forum label,
created in the 60's to give voice to African American poets and orators such as
Langston Hughes, Stokely Carmichael, Elaine Brown, Ossie Davis and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Motown revolutionized the music industry...its Black Forum label documented
the social consciousness of a generation.
Motown Mic: The Spoken Word is a continuation of that rich legacy.
The winner will receive $500, be featured on the Motown Museum website and named
2014 Motown Mic: The Spoken Word Artist of the Year!
