Activist Poetry Slams in the Heights

Poetry Slams in the Heights

Slideshow Picture Click Here



Poetry is a unique tool that allows writers to channel thoughts into words in expressing views, emotions, beliefs, and life experiences. It is also a powerful forum in showcasing the importance of freedom of speech.

Emotions released by the poets were passionate and honest, as some words were spoken with anger as these poets fully invested their souls into their poetry.

The topic mainly focused on the current state of our economy, government, world issues, rights of the people and the truths left out by the mainstream media.

Arts were also displayed by local artists such Dru Cruz, Marukh, Angel Perez, Ruler, Ramsey Oh, Coalition of Activists, Jamie O' hara.

The Activist Poetry Slam 2 were organized in collaboration with the JCPM.org, Truth-Media.info, WearechangeNewJersey.com, and WeareChangeNYC.org.

Good Eats at Liberty State Park - Maritime Parc

Good Eats at Liberty State Park

Did you know there are a couple of great restaurants in Liberty State Park? Maritime Parc is one the restaurants located inside Liberty Sate Park, it's a great find nestled in Jersey City, opened only about a year ago.

It has indoor and outdoor seating, a spectacular view of the Marina boats and New York City Skyline, great unique indoor design and the staff is friendly and welcoming, adding up to a wonderful dining experience.

Though not everything is perfect, sometimes service goes awry such as forgetting desserts, taking longer time to bring out the food, but the service staff is quick to rectify the mistake. The quality and presentation of food is quite good, flavor combination is satisfying to any palate. Pickled plate with corn, apple and grapes for bread dipping is a refreshing start to a meal.

The interior design of the restaurant has a modern feel with clean horizontal lines. A 350-bottle wine display, Chef's table with views of both the open kitchen and the Marina, are all the unique elements of this restaurant.
