There’s Something in the Water – Spoken Word Performance Rocks Power Shift

Anyone who attended Power Shift 2007’s Saturday keynote presentations/festivities was surely struck by the performance of Youth Speaks poet Just Greg. Greg delivered an inspired and powerful performance of his spoken word piece, “There’s Something in the Water” before the pumped up crowd up thousands at Power Shift.

Now, thanks to some digging by Jenny Bedell-Stiles, I can finally post a link to a video of Greg’s performance for those who missed out, or who just want to see it again. I unfortunately can’t seem to embed the video here at IGHIH, but just follow this link to see Greg’s performance of “There’s Something in the Water.”
