Camping protesters call for continuation of national eviction moratorium

By Dylan Haworth @dylanhaworth2

As part of the nationwide movement to cancel rent and stop evictions, local protesters camped overnight outside of the Bernalillo Metropolitan Court from Friday, Sept. 24 to Saturday, Sept. 25 as part of the national days of protest by Cancel the Rents. The campout comes in reaction to the recent decision made by the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down the national eviction moratorium that was enacted during the coronavirus pandemic.

At the campout, organized in large part by the Party for Socialism and Liberation, around 20 activists were set up with tents, food and signs for the protest.

Workshops were presented on how to make aid kits for unhoused community members as well as how to fill applications for the notoriously fickle emergency renter’s assistance.

While camps were set up on the court lawn, demands were

Refugee and Immigrant Well-being Project to accept more participants in spring Incoming Afghan refugees inspire new section of RIWP

By Megan Gleason @fabflutist2716 The Refugee and Immigrant Well-being Project (RIWP) at the University of New Mexico is a nine-month program that pairs undergraduate students with immigrant and refugee families that typically starts in August at the beginning of the fall semester.

However, due to the current need of so many incoming families to New Mexico, the project will accept another cohort of students in January at the start of the spring semester as well, which will go

into the summer semester.

“We work with refugees and immigrants and we bring them together with UNM students to learn from each other — because there’s a lot that they can really learn from each other — and also work together to mobilize resources to help newcomers meet their goals,” Jessica Goodkind, founder of RIWP, said.

Goodkind said this project is a good experience for students to make an impact on these communities. “(RIWP) addresses two urgent problems: improving the health, stability and integration of refugees, and increasing communities’ willingness to accept them,” coordinator Martin Ndayisenga said in a video

about the project.

Mohammed Alkwaz, a 2013-14 RIWP participant and current organizer for the program, said the program helps newcomers adjust to the new environment with resources which introduce them to the new language, culture, transportation and more.

“When a person is coming to new places, they will struggle a lot in some different things,” Alkwaz said.

Taghride Shawfan was a participant of the program in the 2019-20 session. Originally from Damascus, Syria, she moved to America because of terrorism in her home country. The project helped her not only get acquainted with

Inside this Lobo PERLS: UNM community finds joy in the outdoors despite pandemic (pg. 3) LONGA: LETTER: Why isn’t UNM requiring high school students on campus to be vaccinated? (pg. 4)

American customs and laws but also meet other refugees.

“It was a great experience and I benefited greatly from it,” Shawfan wrote to the Daily Lobo.

Goodkind said this project is structured like a partnership; both the newcomer and the paired undergraduate student can learn a lot from each other.

“People don’t want to get here and feel like everyone’s just helping them and feeling sorry for them. They want to feel like they have important roles to play in their community — and they do — and so we really want to create those valued social roles and value people’s knowledge and experience,” Goodkind said. “And that’s why

the Refugee and Immigrant Wellbeing Project is structured the way it is — not as something that’s helping only refugees and immigrants but as a mutual learning experience.”

Danielle Parker, a former participant of the program, said in the project video that the structure isn’t one-sided and that she “learned just as much or more from (her) refugee partners.”

According to Goodkind, RIWP is currently preparing for a new wave of families that need help, especially considering the current political situation in Afghanistan that has forced refugees out of the country.

buquerque community such as the Peace and Justice Center, the unhoused population and those who could face eviction voiced their distress over the worsening housing crisis.

“Banks got bailed out; we got sold out,” protesters called.

Their chants and rallying cries

were met with both enthused honking in support as well as heckling from passersby.

The organizers echoed grievances held across the nation regarding the country’s failure to address the housing crisis in the midst of a global pandemic, according to lead organizer

Chris Banks.

“This protest is part of national (days) of action, called Cancel the Rents,” Banks said. “It was called after the Supreme Court overturned the CDC’s moratorium on evictions, which puts 11 million people at risk of eviction.”

Banks said their calls for action were specifically statewide as well as national.

“Here in Albuquerque, we are raising the particular demand that Gov. (Michelle) Lujan Grisham convene a special session of the state legislature to pass an indefinite moratorium on evictions,” Banks said.

Up to this point, New Mexico’s Supreme Court has maintained its eviction moratorium without setting a definite expiration date.

However, Banks said it hangs in a precarious position.

“Right now, the Supreme Court of New Mexico has a stay (of execution on the U.S. Supreme Court ruling to end the moratorium), but they have the power to unpause these evictions at any moment,” Banks said. “We need the state legislature to take action.”

Banks said the state’s federally allocated $178 million towards renter’s assistance has been too slowly dispersed, with only around $38 million handed out to New Mexicans as of Sept. 3. With a spending deadline of Sept. 30, a large portion of that fund could be reallocated to other states while New Mexico faces a continuing housing crisis.

Many of the attending protesters also highlighted grievances with budget allocations on the federal, state and local levels.

“The amount of debt owed by renters right now is 8% of what the United States spends on military,” Bex Hampton, a PSL member and local activist, said. “A small cut to the military would make a large difference to working-class people in the country, but Congress hasn’t moved to do that.”

Hampton said that, on the local level, they would like to see funds previously allocated towards law enforcement and recreational projects redirected towards aiding the unhoused peoples of the city.

Other demands brought up were the formation of a tenants union, additional public housing and streamlined renter’s assistance.

“Between 2018 and 2019, New Mexico had the highest increase in homelessness at 27%, which is shocking,” Hampton said.

Hampton quoted the 2019 Apartment List, which found that “more than half of Albuquerque renters spend at least 30% of their salary on rent,” which was a higher percentage than more notoriously expensive cities like Portland or San Francisco.

New Mexico has taken in many refugees and continues to do so, and Goodkind said the organization has received a lot of support from community members that want to help. However, amid the “mobilization and preparation,” Goodkind said it’s stressful that they can’t help everyone.

“As quickly as we’re all working on these issues, we know and we’re hearing every day of Afghan people who have been arrested in Afghanistan and haven’t been able to get out,” Goodkind said.

The project has also been coping with the COVID-19 pandemic and had to adjust to a virtual environment in the last year along with the rest of the University, Goodkind said. With this came challenges of equal access to technology and internet but the social aspect of the program was essential enough for participants to persevere nonetheless.

“The pandemic … has obviously had different impacts on different communities, and because refugees and immigrants are not only met marginalized by their newcomer status and their language but often

by race and ethnicity and religion, it’s definitely been hard on many refugee and immigrant families,” Goodkind said.

Alkwaz said that explaining what’s true and what’s not about the vaccine and COVID-19 has also been a difficulty, especially since people coming in have access to many different sources of information.

“We’re facing these things and all these questions,” Alkwaz said.

“It’s not easy to handle it and to

convince the people to take (the vaccine) to protect themselves and to protect the community.”

In August, the National Institute of Mental Health awarded the organization a grant that launched a five year study on the different impacts that the pandemic has on Latinx immigrants and African refugees, which they are currently working on.

Originally the project was only open to refugees, but the addition of the immigrant community started in

2018, according to Goodkind.

“We really wanted to build solidarity and understanding between refugees and immigrants because they do share so many similar experiences and can really mobilize to support each other and learn from each other,” Goodkind said.

Goodkind started the project in 2000 as a part of her dissertation in Michigan, but continued the mission in New Mexico in 2006 after settling down in a faculty position

at UNM that began in 2004. Overall, she said that refugees aren’t appreciated as they should be in America.

“People who make it here as refugees are really resourceful people who have a lot to teach others,” Goodkind said.

UNM community finds joy in the outdoors despite pandemic

By Zoe Perls @zoeperls While the last year and a half of the COVID-19 pandemic has been marked with extreme tragedy and isolation, a silver lining was realized as people turned to the outdoors as a refuge from the stress of the pandemic. At the same time, some are worried about the impact this influx of people outdoors will have on the environment.

Haley Myler, a fourth-year student studying music at the University of New Mexico, said spending time outdoors has provided a healing space from the COVID-19 pandemic, especially since she lived alone for the first year of the pandemic.

“Being able to get away from school and my computer (by going outdoors) was honestly the best thing I could have done for myself … And it was also just nice getting away from all the terrible news that was happening at the time,” Myler said.

Myler said that going on hikes around New Mexico, spending time in bodies of water and even

WHY

spending time with nature on UNM’s campus provided a respite from the pandemic.

Charles Gwinn, the outdoor recreation coordinator for UNM’s Outdoor Adventure Center, said that he has seen an uptick in the amount of students interested in spending time outdoors during the pandemic due to an increased amount of free time.

A study done by the Outdoor Industry Association found that due to COVID-19 restrictions, “more Americans have turned to the outdoors, some for the first time and others for the first time in many years.” The study also showed that newer participants in outdoor activities are younger, have a lower income, are more diverse and are more likely to be female.

Although levels of outdoor activity are up, Gwinn said planning larger trips is difficult because although outdoor activities are a low-risk activity for COVID-19, transportation to and from these activities is not. Gwinn said this leads to many individuals “getting into the outdoors on their own.”

biology, said his time outdoors increased during the pandemic, mainly due to the fact that outdoor activities are more COVID-safe than indoor activities.

Gonterman spent his summer working for Natural Heritage New Mexico, an ecology database initiative out of the Museum of Southwestern Biology at UNM, collecting environmental data, which meant spending 40-50 hours per week outdoors.

Through his work, he travelled across New Mexico and observed

an increase of people recreating in the outdoors.

Gonterman said this increase in wilderness traffic “is a good and bad thing.” Although it’s nice that more people are able to spend time outdoors, he said, “many recreators trample wildlife and harm natural resources.”

Gwinn, who is also the New Mexico Leave No Trace advocate, also expressed concerns about the increase of people outdoors. Although he said going outdoors is a rewarding and healing experience,

this increase in outdoor activities leads to environmental degradation if not done responsibly.

“I think educating yourself on how to recreate responsibly (is important) so that we are good stewards of the land and that we can conserve it for future generations,” Gwinn said.

LETTER

Why isn’t UNM requiring high school students on campus to be vaccinated?

In late August, the University of New Mexico publicly announced that all students, staff and faculty accessing University facilities would be required to be fully vaccinated by Sept. 30, with two exceptions: medical necessity and sincere religious belief. What the UNM administration failed to tell the public was that there was a third exception to the vaccine mandate: high school stu-

dents attending UNM classes.

The UNM administration has informed the United Academics of the University of New Mexico’s bargaining team that it is too complicated to require high school students to be vaccinated. Yet, according to the Las Cruces Sun News, “All high school students taking dual-credit classes at New Mexico State University and its community college system will (be

required) to submit a proof of vaccination or weekly negative testing results.” Likewise, the Central New Mexico Community College (CNM) requires that all high school students taking CNM courses be vaccinated.

The administration constantly reminds our branch campus colleagues to treat their high school students as they would any other group of college students. Why

can’t the administration follow its own advice and require high school students taking UNM classes be vaccinated just as UNM students are required to be vaccinated?

The UNM administration’s failure to solve this “complicated” problem endangers the health and safety of our members, especially those at UNM-Gallup and their students.

It is time for the UNM admin-

istration to publicly explain why NMSU and CNM can solve this “complicated” problem while the UNM administration cannot.

Lobos’ pandemic pets instill joy amid chaos

By Rebecca Hobart @DailyLobo The lack of in-person engagements and social opportunities during the COVID-19 pandemic drove people across the country, including some University of New Mexico students, to bring new pets into their homes. As life picks up again, these Lobos are still finding camaraderie and comfort in their pandemic pets.

Naina (Great Pyrenees and German Shepherd dog mix) Sikandar Awan, a Ph.D. student pursuing a teaching, learning and teacher education degree at UNM, took in a Great Pyrenees and German Shepherd mix named Naina from a friend in Santa Fe in June 2020.

Naina is a Hindi name that means

“pretty eyes,” Awan said. As a doglover, Awan grew up with a German Shepherd when he was young, citing his early affinity for the breed as a motivator for taking in Naina.

Adopted in the early months of the pandemic, Naina helped Awan get outdoors and feel less stagnant.

This semester, Awan’s curriculum is largely conducted in a hybrid format, which allows him to spend more time at home with Naina.

Juno (domestic short-haired kitten) Haley Myler, a fourth-year student in UNM’s music program, adopted 5-month-old kitten, Juno, in April 2020 following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Though she wasn’t actively looking for a cat, Myler said living alone in the wake of shutdowns was particularly difficult.

Bringing Juno into the home and having an animal to take care

of was good for her overall wellbeing during the isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The companionship is something else; it’s not something I’ve ever felt with a person before,” Myler said. “It’s always nice coming home to her.”

Myler said Juno is still getting accustomed to spending time alone now that classes are taking place via in-person instruction and is very clingy.

Ziva (Husky and cattle dog mix) Bella Hautzinger, a sophomore studying psychology at UNM, found a friend and emotional support animal in Ziva, a Husky and cattle dog mix. Hautzinger adopted Ziva from Albuquerque’s Eastside Animal Shelter last September.

Hautzinger still lives in the dorms and deals with ongoing struggles with mental and physical health, so adding a dog to the mix was a hard transition but was ultimately worth it.

“It’s made me a more productive person and given me something to care about.” Hautzinger said.

Ziva is still learning how to behave in public settings, but attending classes on campus with Hautzinger is in her future.

As the days of social isolation transition into something more reminiscent of pre-pandemic days, these pets continue to bring joy and friendship to these Lobos.

UNM soccer wins first conference game against Wyoming 4-1

By Matthew Salcido @baggyeyedguy The University of New Mexico women’s soccer team defeated the University of Wyoming Cowgirls 4-1 in a high-octane scoring rout on Sept. 24 at University Stadium.

The win comes against the Lobos’ first conference opponent of the season and puts UNM 6-2 overall.

The match started with a Wyoming goal only 2:20 in that was so unexpected it felt like an accident; the Wyoming bench went wild when defender Savannah Warner sailed the ball into the bottom right of the goal off an assist from midfielder Jamie Tatum.

UNM’s normally clamorous crowd quieted even as the Lobos came close to tying the score on three different shots. The score was finally tied 1-1 by UNM forward Molly Myers at 12:58, assisted by defenders Myah Isais and Karlee Maes. After the two Lobos defenders brilliantly placed a long kick forward on the field, it was up to Myers to outrace two Wyoming players to the ball, which she did, leaving only the Wyoming keeper Alex Daws for her to evade.

Wyoming attempted to push

the ball up to the goal, but Lobos keeper Emily Johnson stopped the advance with an amazing flying grab 45 degrees from parallel.

The play couldn’t be recorded as a save since it wasn’t off a shot on goal, but it was a highlight play for Johnson nonetheless. UNM had sustained Wyoming’s early and best shot and kept their composure, and at 15:47 they took the lead 2-1 when forward Zaria Katesigwa scored off an assist from forward Jadyn Edwards.

Wyoming came close to scoring with two shots at 19:26 and 19:35, but the first was blocked and the second off target. UNM came back and increased their lead with another Myers goal at 23:31, this time assisted by Katesigwa. The same sequence would repeat again before the end of the first period, with Wyoming getting multiple shots, none successful, before another UNM goal at 41:58 from Edwards, assisted by Maes. The period ended with the Lobos up 4-1.

The Lobos wisely took a more defensive approach in the second period, rarely moving their defense far up the field. They attempted only two shots in the second period in contrast to their eleven pervious attempts, and no

corner kicks rather than the five they had in the first. Johnson was marvelous again, recording four saves in the period and not allowing a single goal. UNM didn’t overextend their position to try and score, instead relying on their defense and their 4-1 lead, both of which held resilient until the

end of the match.

UNM had a fantastic all-around night on the pitch. They assisted on all four of their goals, and even before Friday’s game, they were tied for 47th in the nation in assists per game. UNM head coach Heather Dyche said that the early Wyoming goal was probably the

result of the excitement that surrounds the first conference game of the season, but also said that her team’s mature response was the main positive she was taking away from the match.

Myers matched her season high in goals with two total. She said the Wyoming goal probably did more to animate UNM. “It’s a motivational goal for us,” Myers said. “After they scored we didn’t put our heads down.

We used it as ‘we need to pick it up now’ and I’m glad our team doesn’t get down like that.”

With this win, UNM is now 1-0 in conference play. This is the first step toward having the type of successful conference season Dyche wants them to.

“For us it’s avoiding the pitfalls of a very long conference and not letting games slip away, making sure that we qualify for the conference tournament and hopefully get a bye,” Dyche said. “To do that, it’s pretty significant; it’s not easy to do when you play all 12 teams (in the conference).”

UNM volleyball beats Air Force, Fresno State 3-0

By Annya Loya & Matthew Salcido @annyaloya @ baggyeyedguy The University of New Mexico volleyball team won their first two conference matches 3-0 at home, the first against the United States Air Force Academy on Sept. 21 and the second against California State University, Fresno on Sept. 23.

The first sets of both matches were the closest as the Lobos went 25-20 against Air Force and 26-24 against Fresno State. UNM managed to beat both of their opponents in every single basic statistic except one (UNM lost digs against Air Force 29-30). UNM was ruthlessly efficient against Air Force with a 0.453 kill percentage, and they just flat-out beat Fresno State across the board.

Outside hitters Kaitlynn Biassou and Uxue Guereca led the Lobos’ attack in both matches, pummelling a combined 27 kills against Air Force and 21 kills against Fresno State.

They also showed their versatility in the match against Fresno State, recording 19 digs between them.

UNM sophomore middle blocker Emma Smith replaced the missing Elizabeth Woods in the starting lineup for both matches. Until the match against Air Force, Smith had not been a first set starter, but she briefly played throughout the matches. With a 0.286 attack percentage against Fresno State and a team-leading 5 total blocks in each of the matches, Smith made her presence known.

It was not specified why Woods was not able to play in either match.

“All I can say right now (is) it’s for safety reasons,” head coach Jon

Newman-Gonchar said. “(We want to) make sure our team is safe and she’s safe. She’ll be back with us in no time.”

Even coming in without much starting experience, Newman-Gonchar felt that Smith played well.

“We’re really proud of her,” Newman-Gonchar said. “It’s not easy being kind of a backup when you work your butt off every day and not seeing as much court as you want to.”

Sophomore setter Melissa Walden stood out throughout the sets against Fresno State with her incredible 28 assists and strategic setter dumps.

According to Newman-Gonchar, Walden always strives to have the team ready and going. Walden claimed a total of 4 kills and 10 digs against Fresno State.

Against both teams, the Lobos opted to wear face masks throughout the entirety of the matches, unlike the other teams. Newman-Gonchar said it’s a “team-by-team” decision and that the athletics department is just trying to keep everybody safe.

While this decision has so far proven to be physically challenging, it wasn’t enough to stop the volleyball team from claiming the two wins.

“It’s a pretty big disadvantage that we wore masks,” NewmanGonchar said. “It doesn’t feel great.

But they nailed it. But right now this is where we’re at ... We gotta keep the pack safe.”
