i have watched this movie six times today. I tried googling Marty McConnell but found precious little. How can I learn more about her/potential upcoming tours?

Love it. She wants change. She wants truth. I understand it.

I think she was trying to say there are tons of causes and a lot "revolutions", but none are getting anywhere. She wants to die for a cause that has hope of inducing change.

umm...she talks about plenty of things worth dying to stop, and then asks for something worth dying for? or is that supposed to be the point? i love slam poetry, but this one either got lost in its own delivery or is too subtle for me to be sure about

does anyone ever notice that the people that perform on def poetry jam wear the coolest/weirdest (in a good way) clothes? anyway, loved this poem big time :]

this is a very good piece of work and powerfully presented. as an aside, is it me or does she bear a slight resemblance (both vocally and physically) to the character of "Kira" from Star Trek Deep Space Nine?!

"i might believe in this so called revolution if one person proved they knew exactly what they were fighting for and how" the way i see it we are fighting the wrong battles as a way of dealing with loss, with anger, with control. Until we see that we are all in this together that there is no "American" or "Iraqi" or "Asian" or whatever that we are all just HUMAN BEINGS wishing to be happy, wishing to be honestly free... then change can begin.
