Larry Jamerson (born August 2, 1955) is a political poet that hails from St. Louis. He now splits his time between Seattle, Reno, and Atlantic City. His poetry deals with overcoming oppression in all of its forms and finding spirituality. The spirituality he teaches is not one of an organized religion, but one that he claims is lacking in most religions. He has written many poetry books and produced two CDs, both titled Join the Spiritual War. In his early days as a boxer, his work was compared to James Baldwin, a prominent civil rights poet. He also worked at a teen center as a young adult trying to motivate at-risk youth not to fall into the drug culture. He caused some controversy over a comment on the radio when he told kids "to take their drug money and turn it into profit, invest it in legal business." |
