“Andre is not only a talented poet but his skill at making people feel comfortable with the slam poetry medium was evident. His poem “Crayon Box” became the theme of the event which was to celebrate diversity of every kind.
”

“It was an inexpressible gift to see my students laugh and be inspired at the end of such a profoundly challenging year. If you can find a way to bring Andre into your community (virtually or in person), you should make it happen.”

“Such a phenomenal and perfect presentation, I have received nothing but excellent feedback including a great amount from the young people and that’s the real litmus. The way you orchestrated the delivery, the way you brought it in meaningfully and authentically, without preaching. The way you had such a potent and heartfelt invitation for the young people to stretch and grow.”

“Bradford, who is based in Austin, Texas, not only captivated his audience with beautiful slam poetry but his stories and words took my breath away.”

“ As one of the main hosts of the APS Show, he has become a face for the Austin Poetry Slam. He seamlessly transitions audience banter into his emcee duties and the crowd absolutely loves him! SC has become such an integral part of the slam, it’s now impossible for me to imagine this scene without him.”

“His poems are creative, heartfelt, and full of pieces of his own personal history. He is incredibly introspective during his writing process, reflecting on his own emotions both for personal and external situations.”
