The Blackest White Man in Poetry


While perusing the Google-space today, I stumbled upon The Root's List of "The Blackest White Folks We Know." Most of the list was hilarity and rediculosity, but I couldn't argue with this one -
Brooklyn born poet/playwright/actor Danny Hoch deserves inclusion here for his entire body of urban, urbane and fiery work. But all of his credentials can be boiled down to just one line from his poem, "PSA": "This is a public service announcement: This is Whitey, and I'm tellin' you, 'Yes, it's a conspiracy, motherfucker!'"

The Root knows whats up:-) Check out Hoch's dope poem below. Beware...there are some naughty words.
