"Poetry celebrates vulnerability as a strength rather than a weakness. It is a timeless form of storytelling that inspires connection and allows the audience to feel less alone. Experiencing ourselves through another person's story creates empathy. And empathy is what the world needs most right now."--IN-Q Raised by a single mother in Los Angeles, Adam Schmalholz, known as IN-Q--In Question-- discovered his love for poetry through hip-hop.
