Open Mic Night.

I know, I know. This is a little late after the events of the Open Mic Night, but I was thinking better now than never. I really wanted to say that I could almost smell the emotional sincerity from the poems and essay spoken at the Open Mic Night. Some where very uplifting, some were quite comical (Kohl) and then there were those that really made you feel the pain that the Natives in the past experiences and how the deserve recognition just as the Jewish people did for the Holocaust. One poem talk about the Sand Creek Massacre and was nearly on the verge of tears after the spoke of the brutality and unmerciful hatred that left many Native's deaths in vain. I sympathized with her and asked  why people don't seem to know about this when they know the Slavery of the African Americas, the Holocaust, the Civil War. Truly it was a very powerful night.
