00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.500
I joined Poetry Club honestly

00:00:02.500 --> 00:00:05.000
because I didn't have any

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:07.500
way to like share it I felt

00:00:07.500 --> 00:00:10.000
like a lot of connections

00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:12.500
with the people that were in the meeting already

00:00:12.500 --> 00:00:15.000
like had a thing for Porsche EV

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:17.500
I

00:00:17.500 --> 00:00:20.000
didn't really have faith in myself so she kind of brought that

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:22.500
face out of me

00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:25.000
there's this Poetry Club is a growing group

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:27.500
of students dedicated to creative writing into building

00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:30.000
a space to express themselves freely

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.500
the club is run by Rachel's English teacher at

00:00:32.500 --> 00:00:35.000
creative

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.500
writing of

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:42.500
the club

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:45.000
is it to expire

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.500
play Food Express by Miss

00:00:47.500 --> 00:00:50.000
bar for you once us to be

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.500
able to confidently

00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:55.000
right because she

00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:57.500
like she wouldn't have dragged us all out here

00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:00.000
she didn't see anything in the sea it's just a

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:02.500
like being free not letting people tell you

00:01:02.500 --> 00:01:05.000
what you know what good poems

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:07.500
look like it's like you know your

00:01:07.500 --> 00:01:10.000
poems are good because you enjoy it so that's

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.500
how it's made me think about it is one

00:01:12.500 --> 00:01:15.000
thing to drag people out of Fortune

00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:17.500
they don't care but it's another thing to have people

00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:20.000
who do care and actually care to give you

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:22.500
feedback for kids say oh my God this

00:01:22.500 --> 00:01:25.000
was good and all right that

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.500
that helps build the confidence in

00:01:27.500 --> 00:01:30.000
the non-judgmental ball

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.500
has been to multiple poetry workshops and performances together

00:01:32.500 --> 00:01:35.000
including events at the University of

00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:37.500
Michigan and a poetry Festival call louder than

00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:40.000
a bomb is

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.500
the fact that

00:01:42.500 --> 00:01:45.000
we go out together

00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:47.500
transfer she slams Thurston

00:01:47.500 --> 00:01:50.000
14 and like

00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:52.500
we're like making a name for

00:01:52.500 --> 00:01:55.000
herself like a like a ringtone versus

00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:57.500
1400 yeah I know

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:02.500
neck and doesn't even after

00:02:02.500 --> 00:02:05.000
that and he spends it watching

00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:07.500
over her as if she's some boss if

00:02:07.500 --> 00:02:10.000
he's her supervisor

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:12.500
here's

00:02:12.500 --> 00:02:15.000
but yet they're bleeding and she said

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.500

00:02:47.500 --> 00:02:50.000

but they just don't know how to like a

00:04:12.500 --> 00:04:15.000
suspect that like Enterprises

00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.500
what's the one you offered think I told your hubby's creative

00:04:17.500 --> 00:04:20.000
clubs they lost four kids to just like bring

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:22.500
out a different side of themselves do I get

00:04:22.500 --> 00:04:25.000
from private of the day probably didn't even know they existed

00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.500
impacted

00:04:27.500 --> 00:04:30.000
its members not only in their high school life

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.500
what has influenced ideas about the future and their

00:04:32.500 --> 00:04:35.000
lives and careers Miss baumfree in the

00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.500
work she has done with the club has already changed lives and

00:04:37.500 --> 00:04:40.000
what the group's Rising status and hopes of a greater funding

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.500
in the near future she will continue to do

00:04:42.500 --> 00:04:45.000
so on an even greater level

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.500
she feel like we have a talented and she didn't want

00:04:47.500 --> 00:04:50.000
to go to way she feel like she felt like we

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.500
should utilize it and that we should

00:04:52.500 --> 00:04:55.000
utilize it confidently

00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.500
in this world and

00:04:57.500 --> 00:05:00.000
in this sort of

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.500
like life that we live as

00:05:02.500 --> 00:05:05.000
human beings we constantly are being

00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:07.500
compressed into things and

00:05:07.500 --> 00:05:10.000
I feel like when you Unleashed your herself

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:12.500
you create are no matter what it could

00:05:12.500 --> 00:05:15.000
be visual it could be dancing and

00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:17.500
the music so I feel like this is just another

00:05:17.500 --> 00:05:20.000
example of being who you

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.500
are expressing that and not being Unapologetic

00:05:22.500 --> 00:05:25.000
about who you are
