The Art of Protest Poetry
The creation of a Year 9 student fascinated with protest over the years. |
This website was created to draw attention to, educate and promote protest poetry to the you, the reader. 'What is protest poetry?' You may ask. This is one of the many purposes of this website.
Protest poetry is essentially what the two words mean; it is a form of literature that is written to effectively communicate the author's stance on a certain, or multiple subjects that are protested about. For example, it could be anything from arguing against homework to human rights and slavery. However, this website is all about the protest through history and so there will a greater focus on the major events through history that sparked riots and written revolutions.
