“To this day” is a spoken word poem and video illustration by Shane Koyczan and many artists. It was created in 2013 with the purpose of effectively spreading the convincing message that bullying is a real and serious thing that is too often dismissed as normal and not acted upon as the serious thing it is. 2013 was shortly after the new large push against bullying which is likely one large reason as to the creation and popularity of this work.

On Tuesday, April 12th 2016 I went to Chris Jazz Café to see a live Jazz performance from three young artists; Dave D’Arville the Temple Jazz Guitarist, Alex Cross the Pianist, Mat Campbell was on the Bass and Phil Arrington was on the Drums. The show started at 7 pm and ended at 10 however, at 8:30 there was an intermission. Chris Jazz café was on a little block called Sansom Street, at first it was hard to find because the hotel parking sign covered the Jazz sign.

The atmosphere of the place was really nice, it was good vibes and so relaxed; the café felt safe to be alone that evening.

According to former president William McKinley, "The mission of the United Sates is one of benevolent assimilation." It has been widely known that people who don’t fit in (culturally or physically), well, won’t fit in until they are "normal," or assimilated into Western culture. There are examples of this in everyday life, such as if a person with an Asian accent is introduced to a group with an English accent, he or she will most likely be regarded as different, and will be excluded from interaction with the rest of the group.
