What is Bronx Masquerade about?

It is about a class of students in the 9th grade who live in the Bronx. The settings in Mr. Ward's English class and a couple of students want to read their poems to the class but it soon turns into an open mike night every Friday. You learn a bit about every student in the class (you learn the most about Tyrone the main character), their story and why they write their poems.
