Vincente Perez (He/They) is a Black Mexican-American performance poet, scholar, and writer working at the intersection of poetry, Hip-Hop, and digital culture. They examine the ways that poetry and Hip-hop narrate life otherwise and approach poetry as a research methodology and an object of study. They are a PhD Candidate in the Performance Studies program at UC Berkeley & hold a BA in Anthropology and Comparative Race & Ethnic Studies from The University of Chicago. They were a 2021-22 Poetry and the Senses Fellow at UC Berkeley’s Arts Research Center. His debut Poetry Chapbook, Other Stories to Tell Ourselves (Newfound 2023), won an Eric Hoffer Finalist Award! Their work has been featured in Obsidian, Philadelphia Stories, Poetry.onl, Poet Lore, Association of Internet Researchers, Honey Literary and more. Click here for my extended bio.
