"Genesis Renji"

Yesterday (Thursday) in the super dome this guy Elijah Furquan aka Genesis Renji who writes poems and is a fairly well known hip hop artist, presented a poem I though was absolutely awesome, it was about America and Jesus, and how their symbolism coincided with each other, he used the liberty bell cracking like our faith, and the revolution compared to Jesus revolting. I thought this was a great poem and so far one of my favorite presentations in the super dome ~Evan

  1. That was very cool!! I liked the guy with the dreads too (Shane), minus the actual dreadlocks though b/c I'm not a fan of those. All of these speakers are fantastic!

  2. I wish I could have been there Evan! Thanks for sharing. Maybe we can google it when you get back so I can read it. Your description and inspiration you took from it leave me very intrigued!
