MEET OUR FINALIST, MOHAMED!

WE COULD NOT BE MORE THRILLED TO SEND MOHAMED TO NYC!!!


“My People” by Mohamed

I see my people hurting each other sometimes
I wonder who’s going to stop them
Could it be me?
It can’t be me, I’m just a little seed
But I still got big dreams out there for me
My pain is rising deep inside of me
Playing this game called life
It’s like getting stabbed in my chest
If I’m stressing you out just confess
Because I’m just trying to address
What I can one day make a success
My people impress me
The people who paved the way for me
To say what I have to say today
My people


We thought, who better to tell you about this awesome #PoetAthlete than Mohamed himself? Check out the interview on YouTube:



Mohamed told America SCORES Seattle about the inspiration for his poem, "I just was thinking about the people I'm from and how bad stuff happened out there, and I just wanted to write about that."


When we asked Mohamed what he was most excited about in N.Y., he told us he was,"most excited about performing there." 


We know that Mohamed will be an excellent representative of 

America SCORES Seattle in New York 

and we could not be more proud! 



Congratulations, Mohamed!


While you can ANYTIME, stay tuned to hear ways you can 
to America SCORES Seattle to make our #PoetAthletes trip to the Big Apple extra special!!!
