Earth: Dig It: New Generation Beat Poets Laureate An Anthology
“ Dig It” contains contributions from forty two of the fifty two Beat Poets Laureate that exist in the world today as of the beginning of the year 2023. The Beat Poet Laureate title is significant, as it acknowledges those gifted word artists that do not come from mainstream groups. They are unique or “Beat”. The meaning of the word Beat has evolved to now mean that individuals can express themselves freely and write about subjects that are meaningful to them as individuals without being judged or hindered. Each Beat laureate shows a different style of writing as a way of communicating with other people and giving them their opinion on certain ideas, topics, or items, often hidden or frowned upon.
