Friday night at the 2014 Women of the World Poetry Slam gave us some incredible performances and memorable moments. It also gave host Melissa Newman-Evans and the rest of the Slam Center team a reason to stay up until 2:30 AM. Did you know there's a 2:30 AM? Crazy, right? Anyways, it was worth it just to give you this awesome assortment of recaps, analysis, and even a little poetry. Thanks to our correspondents: Rachel Wiley, Joanna Hoffman, Tatyana Brown, and Cheryl Maddalena. Slam Center is sponsored by Black Key Press. Special thanks to Kevin Spak for production support, and Zeke Russell for moral support. Slam Center is produced by Andy Locke.
