Editor's note: If the fall of 2008 as a Visiting Scholar at the Annenberg School of Communication at the University of Pennsylvania, I had the opportunity to "teach" Joshua Bennett. I say "teach" because Joshua taught me quite a bit--and continues to. "10 Things I Want to Say to a Black Woman" is just the beginning of what I suspect will be a brilliant career and life--at whatever Joshua chooses to do.Mark Anthony Neal - NewBlackMan.blogspot.com

Youth Speaks @ Sundance 2009- Joshua Bennett
Youth Speaks- a live poetry reading by Joshua Bennett recorded at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival.From his spoken-word poem, "Carbon Copy":when
I pick up a pen
allowing my words to rocket through the air
like I was on a first name basis with the wind
and so long as it's cool with my father
I'll continue to believe
that the lights I write to every night
are coming from within him
the fireflies on his insides ...
