Yosimar has performed his poetry from the Bay Area to New York City. His style has been described as “a brave and vulnerable voice that shines light on the issues affecting Queer Immigrant Youth and the many disenfranchised communities in the U.S and throughout the world.” He holds the title for the 2005 as well as the 2006 South Bay teen Grand SLAM Champion, has been featured in the documentary 2nd Verse: the Rebirth of Poetry (2ndversefilm.com), and has been published in Mariposas: A Modern Anthology of Queer Latino Poetry (Floricanto Press). Yosimar is currently touring his self-published book, For Colored Boys Who Speak Softly.
