Masks

Muslim Writer's Collective Bay Area is pleased to annouce it's October Open Mic event! It's Halloween season, but costumers and children aren't the only people wearing masks... Are you a reveler? Or do you hide something you want to talk about? Or do you just like masquerades and want to share your love of costuming? Regardless, all our welcome to come and share their stories with us this Friday, October 20th, at the ICCNC in Oakland, CA.

And remember:

We wear the mask that grins and lies

It hides our face and shades our eyes

This debt we pay to human guile

With torn and bleeding hearts we smile

We wear the mask.

- Paul Dunbar

See you then!
