BIDEN OUSTS TRUMP, ELECTED 46TH PRESIDENT

By Liam DeBonis @LiamDeBonis

After an agonizing four-day stretch beyond Election Day that spilled into the weekend, Joseph R. Biden Jr is projected to become the next President of the United States.

The president-elect defeated President Donald Trump, regaining the White House for the Democratic Party after the businessman and reality television star’s bid for re-election fell short.

The declaration of Biden’s victory by the Associated Press and other major news outlets sparked celebrations in Albuquerque and across the country. Lines of cars cruised Central Avenue in Downtown, the University area, Nob Hill and other neighborhoods along the city’s main artery, with honking horns and waving signs replacing more traditional revelry.

“Human decency is back,” one sign read.

At 9:55 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 7, the majority of votes cast in Pennsylvania swung for Biden, giving him 20 more Electoral College votes and raising his total count to 273 — three above the threshold needed to be declared the winner of the presidential election.

A caravan of Trump supporters, meanwhile, gathered in Bernalillo at 9 a.m. on Saturday morning

destined for a rally in Santa Fe. Presumably, the caravan learned of Biden’s victory on the I-25 drive to the state’s capital for a demonstration with baseless allegations of voter fraud and the theft of the election by the Democratic Party.

Although appearing to gain in

many battleground states at the beginning of the count, Trump fell behind as states began to tabulate mail-in votes.

The election’s blue shift — observed mainly in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Georgia — was a result of a phenomenon

known as the “red mirage.”

Democrats tended to vote more by mail than Republicans in the 2020 election, and some states and counties either did not begin processing mail-in ballots until Election Day or prioritized the counting of in-person ballots. This

created the illusion of Trump’s lead in these areas, which began to clear as the full tally of votes emerged.

In the early afternoon of Wednesday, Nov. 4, the New York Times — which relies on data from the Associated Press for election projections — called Wisconsin and Michigan for Biden. Biden gained on Trump’s initial lead throughout the rest of Wednesday night, closing the gap in Georgia and Pennsylvania to less than 100,000 votes.

The Trump campaign responded with legal challenges that intended to halt the counting of votes in states where he still maintained a lead, according to the Associated Press.

“We want all voting to stop. We don’t want them to find any ballots at four in the morning and add them to the list, OK?” Trump said in a post-midnight speech at the White House following the election night, falsely characterizing his opponent’s late-night gains as “a fraud on the American public.”

All votes reported were either postmarked by Election Day — as in the case of mail-in ballots — or were cast before or on Nov. 3 at in-person polling locations, according to voting registrars across the country. Some states did allow mail-in ballots postmarked by Nov. 3 to be counted if they arrived within a certain number of days.

Trump supporters spread misinformation at Roundhouse following Biden victory

By Bella Davis @bladvs SANTA FE — Shortly after the election was called in favor of President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. late Saturday morning, supporters of lame-duck President Donald Trump rallied at the Roundhouse.

The rally was a part of nationwide “Stop the Steal” protests, which organized around the false claim that the 2020 election was rampant with voter fraud.

Around 200 people stood on the sidewalk in front of the state Capitol building as cars flying Trump and U.S. flags drove by — one of which had “fake news mobile” written on the side, listing local TV news stations KRQE, KOB and KOAT — and cries of “four more years” rang out.

One man shouted, “Democrats are an arm of Satan.”

Biden supporters drove through

the rally on occasion, with one yelling, “Trump is a sore fucking loser!” Across the intersection, a small group of people holding Biden signs drew the attention of several Trump supporters, who called them communists.

Rose Lupinacci and her daughter Clara were sightseeing in Santa Fe for the day when they walked by the rally and witnessed a Trump supporter with a gun on his hip harassing and video recording a woman in her car.

“Of course, I’m not living in a bubble, and I knew what has been happening. I guess I’m just surprised at the intensity, especially in this area, and also just the vitriol,” Lupinacci said. “I understand people are really hurting and they’re sad, but to be attacking people in their cars?”

Cowboys for Trump founder and Otero County Commissioner Couy Griffin — who, in July, said people

who support the Black National Anthem being performed at football games should “go back to Africa” — rode into the rally on horseback.

The crowd moved to the front of the Roundhouse to listen to speeches, including one from Griffin where he called on sheriffs throughout the state to investigate alleged voter fraud, of which there is no evidence.

Brett Kokinadis, who ran for the U.S. House this cycle but lost in the Republican primary election, also fueled the crowd’s shared misconception that the election was stolen.

“This isn’t over, and the president is going to make sure it isn’t over,” Kokinadis said. “And it just happens to be that they announced on Saturday that Biden was going to be the winner. Why? Because now they have all weekend to spew these messages in the media about how Biden’s going to be your president.

Grad student union effort nears threshold for recognition

By Lissa Knudsen @lissaknudsen University of New Mexico graduate student workers reported on Friday that more than 40% of eligible graduate workers have signed union cards.

The union needs 50% plus one in order to appeal to the New Mexico Public Employee Labor Relations Board (PELRB) to form a union.

“More cards have been coming in ... We have broken 700 cards, and there are 1,600 graduate students.

And so, a simple majority is 800,” Emigdio Turner, a chemistry Ph.D. candidate at UNM and union organizing committee member, said during a Zoom breakout session with STEM graduate students on Friday. “(But), we would be looking to go much further past that to demonstrate unilateral support.”

More than 50 graduate teaching and research assistants from STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) fields including engineering, physics, chemistry and biology convened for a virtual meeting to answer questions and encourage student workers to sign union cards.

The union’s organizing committee members showed a prepared slide presentation and had guest speakers provide testimony as to why they signed their union card.

Graduate and Professional Student Association (GPSA) President and electrical engineering and business administration student Nikhil Reddy acknowledged the limitations of the existing system for graduate

worker representation and advocated for a union as a more effective way to negotiate for graduate worker pay and benefits.

Nikhil said that GPSA presidents have worked on these issues in the past, but the University hasn’t taken those appeals seriously.

“If anyone from GPSA takes these issues (to the administration) the response is, ‘Yes we recognize it but, you know, the state government, the legislature, the economy ... There are too many (reasons) for the University to not look into this matter,’” Reddy said.

Optical science and engineering Ph.D. candidate and union organizing committee member Duncan McGraw made the argument that the union’s ability to negotiate with the administration will be more effective because unions have legally protected rights to negotiate on their members’ behalf.

“By law, once we form a union, UNM has to negotiate with us — over our pay, working conditions and benefits — in good faith,” McGraw said.

In response to concerns about UNM not having enough money to compensate graduate workers better, Axel Gonzalez, a Ph.D. candidate in American studies, said that the existing system of representation provides little to no voice to graduate students in budgetary decision making.

“The reality is that UNM has a large budget, and of course they have to make decisions about where that money goes,” Gonzalez said. “But, the big issue is that right now (graduate workers) have no say in that budget.”

Later, Gonzalez added that, “The University claims to not have

enough money to pay those that make the least.”

A portion of the presentation was focused on addressing the concerns that some international graduate students may be at increased risk for retaliation if they sign a card or participate in the union.

In an email sent to Raul Jaiswal, an engineering Ph.D. candidate and union organizing committee member, director of International Student and Scholar Services Linda Melville confirmed that international students should not fear losing their visas for participating in or supporting union activities.

“As international students, as long as you maintain full time enrollment and keep your I-20/DS 2019 current (as well as your passport), you are free to participate or not participate in union activity as you see fit,” Melville wrote.

STEM graduate students shared that their primary grievances are over workload and how the power dynamic between graduate students and faculty supervisors can inhibit the ability of an individual graduate worker to advocate on their own behalf.

A chemistry teaching assistant, who asked to have their name withheld for fear of retaliation, said that in their situation they were assigned the workload of two TAs but were compensated for just one assignment.

“I had an experience a year ago where they were paying me a regular TA stipend, and I was supposed to TA two classes that normally have two separate TAs for those classes,” they said. “I went to my advisor at one point to complain, and she talk-

ed to the chair, but there was nothing to be done.”

Gonzalez asserted that not only would the union be better positioned to bring these grievances to the attention of the administration, but that there was no evidence that participating in a union would erode relationships between faculty advisors and graduate students.

“We will be negotiating with the University — the University administration — not our faculty or advisors,” Gonzalez said. “And this idea that a union can negatively impact that relationship with them is just not true.”

Gonzalez said that several studies have shown that graduate employee bargaining has not affected the relationships between graduate workers and their faculty and advisors.

“In fact, we argue the opposite — having adequate pay, protections and a say in the decisions that affect our lives only improves our professional relationships and our overall well being,” Gonzalez added.

With regard to specific improvements in demands for better health care benefits, the union organizing committee displayed a number of slides that compared premium costs, out of pocket maximums and copay amounts for graduate workers at unionized campuses with UNM’s current graduate worker health care package.

Alexis Keissling, a former union organizing member and alumna from the University of Oregon, testified that other graduate student unions had negotiated access to better physical and mental health benefits.

Alexis said that being a member of a graduate worker union at her Uni-

versity ensured that the health care benefits available to graduate workers included the costs she incurred while undergoing medical treatment to transition.

“There are various transition-related things that insurance policies frequently don't cover,” Alexis wrote in a message with the Daily Lobo.

“Physical health care is mostly in the form of hormone replacement therapy and monitoring that with blood work. Additionally, for a lot of trans people, therapy is not only helpful for working through gender dysphoria or other feelings but actually a necessary step to obtain HRT or other medical gender transition services,” Alexis said.

The Daily Lobo reached out to the administration for comment regarding the progress the union effort has made, but they were not able to provide comment before this article went to print.

After the union collects the appropriate number of signed cards, the next step is to appeal to the Labor Board for recognition.

The Daily Lobo previously reported that the Labor Board would not confirm nor deny if graduate workers are recognized as public employees. PELRB executive director Thomas Griego said, “This is an open question that has not yet been addressed by this board. It would not be appropriate for me to comment on an issue that may come before us for adjudication.”

Video of man performing traditional pueblo dance goes viral

By Lissa Knudsen @lissaknudsen

Ashkia “Kia” Randy Trujillo left his car idling as he jumped out onto Central Avenue on Saturday evening to spontaneously perform a portion of an Ohkay Owingeh storytelling dance.

This specific dance is one that members of Trujillo’s pueblo have done for generations “to depict a successful hunt or a victorious battle, depending on the dancer,” Trujillo said to the Daily Lobo in an interview.

Trujillo’s dance was part of a larger community celebration in honor of Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s defeat of Donald J. Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

University of New Mexico journalism student and New Mexico Daily Lobo photographer Sharon Chischilly captured the moment on video and posted it to her Instagram and Twitter accounts.

Chischilly is Navajo — born and raised in the Navajo Nation, an area that has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic — and is known for her skill in depicting Indigenous communities. Over

the last six months, Chischilly’s photography has been featured in the Navajo Times, New York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal and other international outlets.

By Sunday evening, the video had been viewed 4.4 million times, more than 2,000 people had left comments and nearly 34,000 had shared the video. A number of verified Twitter influencers had boosted the video, including the rapper Common, Congresswoman Deb Haaland and actor and Indigenous rights activist Mark Ruffalo.

Given the COVID-19 pandemic social distancing directives and Albuquerque’s long history of weekend cruises down Central Ave., the car rally and Trujillo’s response to the election results were the New Mexican manifestation of the joy and relief much of the many in the community and across the globe were experiencing.

“Without a single word, this Native American man expressed every feeling of VICTORY, jubilation and undeniable RELIEF that every American feels right now about Trump being voted out. I’m in tears. I feel this IN MY SOUL,”

Stacey Laney posted to Twitter.

Trujillo told the Daily Lobo in an interview that he has been the group leader for a dance group from the Pueblo of Ohkay Owingeh for the past 10 years. The dance group was the first youth dance group — all under the age of 18 from Ohkay Owingeh — to ever perform outside of the pueblo.

Usually group leaders are elders, according to Trujillo, but he has been practicing and learning since he was two years old.

Trujillo said that this dance was just another example of his deep commitment to “bring friends together to continue our culture and traditions.”

When asked how he felt about the influx of attention his dance was garnering, Trujillo said, “(To be honest), I'm actually surprised.

I never expected to get this much recognition. I feel as if now it’s my duty to do my best to express the voice of my Indigenious people.”

No votes cast after Election Day were counted, and all counted ballots were cast legally, according to an Associated Press fact-check.

After losing Wisconsin, Trump’s campaign manager Bill Stepien announced that they would seek a recount in the state.

“The President is well within the threshold to request a recount, and we will immediately do so,” Stepien said in an official statement after the state was called for Biden.

In Wisconsin, Biden led by approximately 20,000 votes, or a +0.6 margin as of Sunday Evening. Per Wisconsin law, if the percentage margin is greater than +0.25 but less than +1.0, a candidate can demand a recount if they assume financial responsibility for it. The cost of executing a recount is approximately $3 million. In 2016, a recount in the same state resulted in a shift toward Trump, but only by a net gain of 131 votes.

In Arizona and Nevada, Biden maintained a meaningful, but not comfortable, lead. Nevada hovered at about 86% of estimated votes counted for the duration of Nov. 4.

The first batch of results from Maricopa County in Arizona tightened the race, with 59% of the votes go-

ing to Trump. Subsequent batches released Thursday morning further eroded Biden’s lead down to less than 70,000 votes.

Besides Maricopa County, Thursday yielded little concrete answers and plenty of tension in all of the undeclared states. Morning stretched into afternoon with still no projected winner in any of the remaining states.

Biden edged ever closer in Pennsylvania as the weekend approached, tightening Trump’s lead to less than 10,000 votes. The race in Georgia entered recount territory as Biden closed the gap to only 10,000 votes, by Sunday evening.

On Friday, an influx of more mailin results pulled Biden ahead of Trump in both Georgia and Pennsylvania, ending the day with Biden maintaining a lead of about 5,000 votes and 29,000 votes, respectively.

Then, in the early morning of Nov. 7, Biden gained a decisive lead ahead of Trump in Pennsylvania, delivering him the Electoral College votes he needed.

By noon, every major news outlet had projected Biden as the winner of the state.

Alaska, Arizona, Georgia and Nevada had yet to be called by most

major news outlets as of Sunday evening. However, even with victories in all those states, Trump had no remaining paths to victory.

Biden’s tight victory in Pennsylvania, by a margin of over 43,000 votes, or +0.6 percentage points, delivered him the presidency. Biden became the 46th President-elect and is scheduled to assume office on Inauguration Day, Jan. 20, 2021.

“We have a lot of work ahead of us,” Vice-President-elect Kamala Harris wrote in a tweet following the results. “Let’s get started.”

At the Roundhouse in Santa Fe, where the Trump rally gathered to protest the election results, cries of “four more years” and “Donald J. Trump is still your president” could be heard under the overcast afternoon sky. He has 74 days remaining in his term.

Bella Davis, Andrew Gunn, Nick Romero and Liberty Stalnaker contributed reporting to this article.

1 wanted to come out, and I wanted just to hold this (sign) up. Just hold it up.”

He said throughout the rally he was verbally harassed, pushed, threatened, had his sign grabbed and had people follow him and get in front of him in attempts to obstruct him from walking around.

“It’s very hostile — very, very hostile. I didn’t say a word to them; all I did was carry this sign,” he said. “I’ve felt that it was dangerous for me to walk among other Americans, and it was terrible. The language I heard, the hatred, the venom, nastiness, it’s really surprising me. It’s not something I didn’t expect. I didn’t expect it in this amount, though. I expected people would say things to me, but I didn’t think I’d have to feel threatened.”

The crowd started to dwindle as dark clouds rolled in. By 3 p.m., only a dozen Trump supporters remained in the area. Meanwhile, hundreds of Albuquerque residents an hour to the south took to the streets to celebrate Trump’s defeat.

Well, I promise you, the president’s not done with you, and you and us are not done for this president.”

As of Sunday night, the New York Times reported Biden as garnering 279 Electoral College votes and 50.6% of the popular vote, compared to Trump’s 47.7%.

Another speaker, who identified himself as a lawyer and minister, encouraged rally attendees to be prepared to take up arms in support of Trump.

“If Trump doesn’t give a concession speech, then it’s going to be up to us to back it up with the end of our guns,” he said. “Let’s hope it never comes to that, but it’s better to die as free men fighting for Trump than to die as slaves living in a communist country.”

With speeches calling for violence ongoing, a lone Biden supporter walked through the crowd carrying a homemade sign reading “President Biden” and “Vice President Harris” and was quickly singled out.

The man, who asked to remain anonymous because of safety concerns, said he came out to celebrate Biden’s victory before being met with a great deal of aggression.

“It’s a real relief. I can finally say the word ‘president’ without feeling sick inside,” he said. “So I

‘Mandalorian’ premiere an explosive start to promising second season

By Shelby Kleinhans @BirdsNotReal99 This review contains spoilers.

From “Firefly” to “Westworld,” the sci-fi western has established itself as a genre-bending staple in recent years. Disney’s newest hit show, “The Mandalorian,” is no different, melding the “Star Wars” universe with western tropes in a way that appeals to multiple generations of fans. The first episode of the second season is a worthy premiere that will whet your appetite for the many adventures that are sure to ensue this season.

The season two premiere, “The Marshal,” launched on the streaming platform Disney+ on Oct. 30, about a year after the release of the first season in 2019. The 54-minute runtime marks a departure from the shorter episodes of the first season (excluding the finale), but a compelling story and incredible graphics maintains a good pacing.

What’s remarkable about this episode is that the narrative

structure is nothing new, playing on the western archetype of a hero forced to partner with Indigenous populations to defeat a common enemy. Substitute Din Djarin, or Mando (played by Pedro Pascal) as the hero, the Sand People as the Indigenous populations and a hungry behemoth of a Krayt dragon as their enemy, and you have the episode.

This is where writer and director Jon Favreau succeeds best. He takes this archetype, translates it into the language of the “Star Wars” universe and creates a nuanced episode that functions as a commentary on settler colonial relationships. The episode is also chock full of references to the original trilogy, the prequels and other “Star Wars” canon.

Favreau’s attention to detail is what truly makes the episode stand out. For example, Mando now tolerates droids — presumably because of IG-11’s noble sacrifice at the end of the last season — the marshal from the episode’s namesake Cobb Vanth (played by newcomer Timothy Olyphant) rides what appears

to be a speeder cobbled out of parts from Anakin’s podracer from “The Phantom Menace” and Vanth even has a jetpack malfunction reminiscent of Boba Fett’s in “Return of the Jedi” that sent the bounty hunter into the mouth of the Sarlacc.

The easter eggs make the episode fun to comb through, but what I appreciated most was the storyline of the Tusken Raiders.

They had a brief appearance in the first season, but the premiere focuses on the nuanced aspects of their culture, both humanizing them and making them an integral aspect of Mando’s mission. Previously, they’ve been relegated to amorphous villains, known only for their unique vocalizing and tortuous ways that killed Anakin’s mother Shmi in “Attack of the Clones,” so the diversity in presentation here is appreciated.

I would be remiss to not mention the fact that the production team behind “The Mandalorian” hired deaf actor Troy Kotsur to help craft the Tusken sign language that’s used extensively throughout the episode. This gives me hope

that big budget productions will continue to give creative control to people with disabilities, as well as other minority populations.

Similar to the first season, the flashier aspects of this episode don’t disappoint. I was absolutely floored to finally see a fully CGIrendered Krayt dragon leap out from the trembling sands of the Dune Sea. While the story itself is well written, the graphics for the dragon and its explosive demise set the premiere aside as something special.

The icing on the cake is watching Mando and Vanth jet pack into the air and fire on the dragon in what can only be described as a faceoff of epic proportions. Olyphant’s brilliant grin and devilish charm make his performance a welcome addition to the ever-expanding cast list, and this will hopefully not be his last appearance as the marshal of Mos Pelgo.

For those of you who, like myself, were excited to watch the ever intimidating Moff Gideon (played by Giancarlo Esposito) pick that dark saber back up, you may be slightly

disappointed that he isn’t in the premiere. However, the last minute of the episode more than makes up for this omission.

“The Mandalorian” team truly delivered with the final reveal of a very much alive Boba Fett (played by Jango Fett actor Temuera Morrison). Sure, it was cool to see his armor used as a plot device throughout the episode, but nothing can compare to seeing the return of the legendary bounty hunter himself. I, for one, can’t wait to see how his story intertwines with Mando’s this season.

Overall, the episode had everything a “Star Wars” fan could dream of: an expansion of lore, epic western-inspired showdowns, multiple shots of The Child (affectionately called “Baby Yoda”) just being cute, a sweeping score and a beautifully composed final shot of the twin suns setting on Tatooine.

La Cosecha Dual Language Conference hosts virtual powwow

By Hannah John @yesitshannahj A virtual powwow and dance took place on Thursday, Nov. 5 as a part of the La Cosecha Dual Language Conference, hosted by the Dual Language Education of New Mexico (DLENM).

The powwow was streamed by AMP Concerts, a local nonprofit organization that works either independently or with local groups to host concerts in the northern New Mexico area.

According to the La Cosecha website, the conference started in 1996, and the goal of the conference has always been to support educators, parents, researchers and practitioners whose goal is supporting dual language programs and other related immersion programs.

“A lot of the presenters are teachers who are actually doing dual language at their school. I would say that a majority of the participants are people in education,” Patrick Werito, coordinator of tribal initia-

tives with DLENM, said.

These conferences hold a variety of different events, like a conference dance and fundraiser, peña music and a benefit concert.

According to Werito, this was only the second year of the La Cosecha powwow. Due to the pandemic, this year’s powwow had to be online and was made up of a variety of videos from the New Mexico State Fair, Gathering of Nations and the powwow La Cosecha had last year.

“A lot of the footage came from the Native Media Network. The gentleman that helped us, his name is Boye Ladd Sr. and he works with the Native Media Network,” Werito said. “When we approached him to think about how we were going to do this virtual powwow, he was able to work with the Media Network to get some footage.”

According to AMP Concerts, people could donate at the time of the streaming as well as afterwards.

David Rogers, the executive director, thought of the idea of accepting donations at the time of the stream.

These donations went back into

funds for dual language programs.

“Those donations go into a scholarship fund for individuals who are thinking about becoming a bilingual teacher. I know there’s one for Spanish language teachers, but now the thinking behind it is to include Indigenous language teachers,” said Werito.

The La Cosecha conference happens each year in November, coinciding with Native American Heritage Month, which was designated in 1990 and is meant to celebrate Native American people.

“To give some entertainment to conference participants, we were thinking about what we could do to be inclusive of Indigenous people, so the powwow came up last year.,” Werito said. “Since November is Native American Heritage Month, we just kind of included that.”

LoboTHON raises over $80,000 for UNM Children’s Hospital

By Nikita Jaiswal @NikitaJswl After a postponement of several months, the University of New Mexico LoboTHON’s highly anticipated dance marathon finally occurred on Saturday, Nov. 7, raising $80,055 for UNM’s Children’s Hospital — $3,000 more than their target goal.

LoboTHON is the largest studentrun philanthropy organization at UNM. According to Noah Lucero, LoboTHON’s executive director, their

goal is to raise money and awareness for UNM’s Children’s Hospital through creative events like dodgeball or bingo.

Lucero said this year, due to COVID-19 concerns, the events shifted online. They included silent actions, social media events and “dine to donate” at restaurants. Leading up to the dance marathon, various student organizations around UNM helped to raise awareness about the upcoming events.

“Driving home peer-to peer fundraising aspects makes us different from other groups,” Lucero said.

The dance marathon was the final fundraising event for LoboTHON. A multitude of activities were offered in the eight hour livestream on Saturday, including performances and talks.

Different local New Mexican artists were featured, including Gonzalo, a singer known for his traditional Mexican folk songs.

The LoboTHON morale team also taught dances, which the marathon is known for. Miracle kids — children at UNMH who benefit under the Children’s Miracle Network Hospital non-profit organization — were able to share their stories, play games with

the audience and sing songs.

“It isn’t really about the number (raised),” Lucero said. “Instead, we want to focus on the kids and their stories.”

This was one of the first programs under the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals organization to host the dance marathon online, so there were a number of other college organizations watching and learning from the event, Lucero explained.

At the end of the night, the total amount raised was revealed, sparking an emotional moment for LoboTHON members and the

UNM community. “(I felt very) emotional and relieved,” Bryan Marquez, LoboTHON partnership/stewardship chair, said. “This year took away a lot of our ability to reach out for fundraising, and to see what we accomplished virtually was really amazing for us.”

Local parkour trainer Andrew Smith explains dedication to UNM

By Liberty Stalnaker @DailyLobo Parkour trainer Andrew Smith stands out in the crowd at the University of New Mexico, leaping from concrete walls and vaulting the circles of outdoor seating across from Mitchell Hall.

“I’m like a machine, pretty much. That’s why people see me all the time,” the 32-yearold Smith said. “I usually practice every day — it just depends what mood I’m in or how my body’s feeling. For the most part, I practice for two hours or more (daily).”

Smith’s commitment to training frequently and for substantial stretches of time has made him a recognizable figure at UNM. “I see someone who may be him practicing parkour between Johnson Gym and (Student Health and Counseling),” UNM staff member Sarah Nezzer said. “If that is him, I appreciate how respectful he is of other peoples’ space while practicing. He seems dedicated to improving his craft but doesn’t do so in a way that forces other people to work around him.”

Smith said he practices at UNM because of its wide range of locations on which to train.

“Universities are awesome

— there’s so many different structures,” Smith said. “Universities are big, and you always find something new.”

Smith, who studied dance at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas, and has been dancing for upwards of 13 years, was initially introduced to parkour by a friend at the age of 29. Viewing parkour as a “new form of movement,” Smith was immediately drawn to the discipline as a method of emotional expression and growth.

“The whole training and discipline of it is to overcome obstacles, mentally and physically.

It helps you get through everyday life, too — whatever you’re going through is like an obstacle to overcome,” Smith said. “When you’re feeling a certain way, it can help you express and get that out in a positive way.”

Smith said the practice encouraged him to inspire others and challenge himself. Still pursuing the activity three years later, he advised others to not hesitate in pursuing and conquering life’s physical barriers.

“It’s never too late. Don’t make excuses — if you want to do something, do it,” Smith said.
