Airmen celebrate Black History Month through spoken word

Senior Master Sgt. David Merris, 376th Expeditionary Civil Engineer Squadron first sergeant, plays guitar during the last spoken word performance at Transit Center at Manas, Kyrgyzstan, Feb. 11, 2014. Spoken word is an expression performance used to deliver strong messages, tell a story, or evoke emotion in the form of poetry where the artist tries to make an impact with the audience. Black History Month is a celebration and recognition of achievements by black Americans in US history. Merris is deployed from Luke Air Force Base, Ariz., and is a native of Glendale, Ariz.
