Saul Williams a 'sorcerer of emotion' at performance

·

Alumni Hall was packed Tuesday night as an anxious crowd awaited the arrival of spoken word artist Saul Williams. After a collaborative audience clap, Board of Directors-Diversity Performance Alfonso Lerma assured the audience members that Williams would grace the stage shortly. As others in attendance grew rowdy, junior Derrin Granger came to the stage. Granger, an active poet on campus, competed last week in the Hip Hop Congress' poetry slam competition, which won him the opportunity of opening for Williams. While waiting for the main event, the audience had watchful eyes on the nervous newcomer. Granger introduced his first piece, "Another one bites the dust," by expressing his opinion that many of his peers were choosing destructive paths leading to drugs, crime and jail time. He shared some of his writing inspiration.
