Check out Amanda's conversation with Nerd The Poet!

Dominic “Nerd” McDonald also known as Nerd the Poet, is a young Black Entrepreneur and Spoken Word artist from various cities in Los Angeles, California who relocated to the DC Metro area in 2019. He has put his views on growing up in the inner city between two households, his Hip Hop music obsession, college experiences, and more into Poetry and Spoken Word. 
His first poetry book "The Love Song of D. Nerd McDonald" was written in 2015 and by 2016 he began touring and traveling as a Professional Published Poet. By his second tour in 2018 had published his second work "H.E.R (Heavens Epitome Realized)" along with two college friends and set his eyes on expanding his brand to the East Coast.  His passion comes from serving the community, especially through the arts. He is the 2022 winner of the Day 8 Publishing's "DC Poet Project". 

By writing from his heart and what he sees and hears, he hopes to be a “change agent” to the unheard.
