The Breakdown - Episode 3.30 - The Jason Kenney Poetry Project

The Breakdown With Nate Pike

If there is a silver lining to be found in the current UCP government in Alberta, it’s the way that creatives have risen to push back! On this episode, we sit down with two of the creators of The Jason Kenney Poetry Project Jackie Seidel and Darlene St. Georges.The Jason Kenney Poetry Project is a book and a research project based around “found poetry” left in the wake of Jason Kenney and the UCP. The book is a combination of statements made by the Jason Kenney and the UCP and presented here as “found poetry” and original poetry inspired by them as well. Combining the written word, visual arts and an unflinching use of humor and tragedy, the book is a heartbreakingly accurate artifact of Jason Kenney and the UCP so far.
