Molotov Mouths Outspoken Word Troupe

About Me

The Molotov Mouths Outspoken Word Troupe is a collective of poets of the political imagination hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area. Drawing from various literary traditions, the group's electric performances at once pay respect to the Latino and Black Arts Movements of the Sixties, the sweeping visions of Sandburg and Mayakovsky, and the Labor Arts Movements of the Thirties. The Molotov Mouths have toured all over the United States and Canada-in prisons, union halls, music festivals, schools, night clubs and community arts centers. Together, we start from very different places to draw a poetic map of life in Las Americas during so-called New World Order. Our book: "Molotov Mouths: Explosive New Writing," published by Manic D Press is available by visiting manicdpress.com. Our current line up is: Ananda Esteva, Leroy Moore, Josiah Luis Alderete and James Tracy. At any performance we may also be joined by past members of the collective: Dani Montgomery, George Tirado, Solidad DiCosta, Raw Knowledge and Jewnbug.
