D-Black is a Bronx-native who has been writing and performing poetry for the past 7 years. Being a direct descendant of an African mother (Sierra Leone to be exact) and being born and raised in African-American surroundings has helped D-BLACK to look at his culture from “both sides of the fence”. With this background, as well as his love & experience for the acting industry, D-BLACK has done his best to feed others with his verbal food for thought. By blending his social/psychological awareness with his urban/Afrocentric flavor he tries his best to express issues that promote Black awareness and unity. He has been doing so successfully at such venues as Nuyorican Poets Café, Urban Juke Joint, the African Burial Grounds, NJPAC (New Jersey Performing Arts Center), MOCAs in Harlem, the Knitting Factory, the Bowery Poets Café, and various “Spoken Word Showcases” hosted by WORDSTOCK, Inc., Hottest Poets, Inc., and For the Love of Poetry
