6. Life as an Artist with Marquis Love (S1 E6)

In this episode of Broadening the Narrative, I talked with my friend Marquis Love about the art he creates and his vision for the Grave Robbers community. Stick around until the very end of the episode to hear Marquis perform his poem “American Misery.” Follow @beagraverobber, support the artists who are a part of the community, donate to the artist fund each month, and participate in the Open Mic nights. I hope that if you know and love me you can engage with the Broadening the Narrative blog, social media accounts, and podcast, as well as any recommended resources. Then, you can share with people who know and love you, and little by little, person by person, we can broaden the narrative.
