malikah briah is currently based in Muncie, Indiana, studying Creative Writing at Ball State University. Her first chapbook, Lazy Dog Sunday, was printed earlier this year.

Bre Robinson is an Indiana native who graduated from IU in 2013. Growing up, Bre spent a lot of their time rap battling the neighborhood boys. Today, they write poems sometimes. They perform sometimes. They believe everything should be done in moderation, except listening to Beyoncé.

He has appeared on HBO’s Def Poetry Jam and is a Gwendolyn Brooks Open Mic Award Recipient.
