"The upstart Bowery Slam Poetry Team, made up of five twenty-something African-American, Afro-Hispanic and queer poets, prepares for the National Championships during the summer of 2016. As their demanding coach pushes them past their personal boundaries to write from a painfully honest place, the poets break down, break through, and ultimately write their masterpiece. An emotional and inspiring film that gives insightful commentary on race, gender, identity and sexual politics in America today, DON'T BE NICE is both an absorbing competition doc, and a vital writer's workshop that proves once and for all that winning hearts and minds is the ultimate prize."--Container.
