@theofficefan731 Lol, I'm actually analyzing this poem in my Poetry class. It seems like something I could crank 10 pages out too.

This is one of my all time favorite spoken word performances, every time I watch it I get something new from it. I have probably spent over an hour just watching this video from time to time

[EmlinTheGremlin003]

This is so inspiring. I watched this video and then off the top of my head came possibly the best poem i've ever written. Incredible.

The fact that taking AP history actually helped in understanding this video. Beyond winning.

@varenikje719 In 1945 Albert Einstein sent a letter to a dying FDR suggesting "extremely powerful bombs of a new type." This letter launched the arms race as we know it. Einstein called it the "greatest mistake of his life." FDR never got to read this letter, he died before it reached him.
