Dylan Svoboda Staff writer Coronavirus spread is accelerating in El Dorado County, but one area is largely driving the surge. The Lake Tahoe region, led by the city of South Lake Tahoe with about 22,000 permanent residents and sparsely populated areas like Meyers and Tahoma, account for nearly half the 198 COVID-19 cases across the county. With approximately 192,000 residents countywide, the Lake Tahoe area, partially driven by its worldwide tourist appeal, outpaces its share of coronavirus infections. During an El Dorado County Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday, county Public Health Officer Dr. Nancy Williams said, “The South Lake Tahoe area is the most worrisome to us on the

county basis right now.” The Tahoe area’s plight has county officials considering a “regional approach” to mitigating coronavirus spread. To date local health officials have relied on a countywide approach to closing and reopening the economy. Placerville and South Lake Tahoe’s bars and restaurants shut their doors and opened them back up the same day. El Dorado Hills and Diamond Springs barbershops and hair salons have followed the same calendar. That could soon change as areas within the county undergo diverging coronavirus experiences. In California counties are flagged for dangerous coronavirus conditions if more than 100 residents per 100,000 test positive for COVID-19 over a twoweek period. Despite the increases, as

of last week, the South Lake Tahoe area had not exceeded the thresholds that would’ve placed it on the state watch list — but it’s getting close, according to Williams. “We’re looking at how many tests come back positive on a population basis,” said Williams. “The threshold that the states are using is anything greater than 100 per 100,000 (residents) and South Lake Tahoe has been running around 75, and the rest of the county is running way, way below that.” So far the governor has placed 19 counties across California, including Sacramento and Los Angeles counties, on a watch list. Those counties on Wednesday were told to shut down bars, dine-in restaurants, wineries, movie theaters, zoos and museums. El Dorado Hills, with roughly double

the population of the South Lake Tahoe area, has had 42 cases of coronavirus since health officials found the first case in March. The Tahoe region has had 98 confirmed cases. If those conditions worsen, county officials may break from their countywide, same-rules-for-all approach. “We may want to talk about if there’s any action we may want to take for that particular region should we get to that point,” Williams said during the meeting. The Lake Tahoe region’s alarming COVID-19 numbers likely have to do with its geography and tourist attractions, county officials claim. District 5 Supervisor Sue Novasel, who represents the region, said tourism in the area has been growing despite ■

Grinding rock delays progress but brings savings to city project Pat Lakey Staff writer When life dishes up the unexpected, expect the city of Placerville Engineering Department to shape it into something you might not anticipate: turning the discovery of a project-stopping Native American grinding rock into a revised construction plan that includes lengthier bike lanes and more road paving. Plus, the new plan results in savings to the city of more than $850,000. When the city was informed in mid-April that its Upper Broadway Bike Lanes project was about to result in bulldozing over a historical site that reportedly includes a significant grinding rock and perhaps could contain more artifacts, work was halted immediately in that area, roughly across Broadway from the Dollar Tree. Although environmental work had been performed that included a sign-off by both state and federal authorities two years earlier, in April 2018 city crews were not aware the rock and its potentially historical surroundings were in the path of heavy equipment. That is, not until the Wopumnes Niesenan Mewuk tribe brought it to their attention, said City Engineer Rebecca Neves. A tribe member apparently noticed that a new driveway had been scraped onto the property in preparation for putting a retaining wall there. Believing that the city “had full environmental clearance to proceed with excavation,” nonetheless Neves said, “The city is grateful to have been made aware of this resource because it afforded positive opportunities for the project to not only protect a valued resource but also by forcing the hand of creativity …” Neves was referring to the fact that in the wake of learning of the grinding rock’s existence, she and her crew, including the city Public Works Department, have come up with plans that translate to a total savings of $856,884 on the nearly $7 million project. While planned ■

Safeway at Sienna Ridge in El Dorado Hills officially opened its doors last week. The commercial project at the corner of Bass Lake and Sienna Ridge roads includes the anchor grocery store and smaller businesses, several of which are also open.

Sienna Ridge is

SHOPPER-READY

Sel Richard Staff writer

Last week Donahue Schriber unveiled its newest neighborhood shopping center to join the company’s portfolio of necessitybased retail destinations throughout the West Coast. The center is positioned at the southeast corner of Bass Lake Road and Sienna Ridge Drive in El Dorado Hills within the master-planned community of Serrano. Safeway, the anchor tenant, occupies 55,000 square feet at the center of Sienna Ridge and displays a variety of local products, expanded organic produce and prepared food, including hundreds of organic, natural, local and healthy choices. The 78,061-square-foot shopping center will house 11 confirmed retailers — what Donahue Schriber representatives describe as best-in-class offerings tailored to El Dorado Hills residents. The architectural design integrates with the communities of El Dorado Hills and Serrano while the open-air storefronts feature stone and brick elements paired with terraced patios for customers to relax. “With the opening of Sienna Ridge we’re proud to provide a center for the community that offers a convenient shopping destination for everything needed and more,” said Heather Beal, senior vice president of leasing for Donahue Schriber. “We are excited to bring this inviting community hub with excellent tenant brands to El Dorado Hills.” Local shoppers are excited that the Safeway is finally open to the public. “I’ve been waiting for this a long time,” said El Dorado Hills resident Analise Mina, who was feeling lucky. “I won the raffle and just got a free bag of groceries.”

Robert “Bob” Schroth Feb. 8, 1925–June 23, 2020

Bob was the fourth of six children born to George William and Myrle Daniels Schroth. He spent his entire life in Placerville, attending local grammar schools and graduating from El Dorado High School in 1943. After graduation, he worked for a short time packing fruit and at the lumber mill in Fresh Pond. However, Bob had a knack for “fixing things” which led him to Hatch Chevrolet. He worked as a body and fender man for almost 40 years. He could get a car door to fit or close the gap in a body panel like no one else. He continued to work on cars even after he retired, working with a friend restoring antique Packards and pounding out dents for anyone who needed his help. Bob was active in the Placerville Volunteer Fire Department for 30 years. He even had the honor of serving as the department chief for a couple of years. He talked about the lifelong friendships he made while in the department. In those days, the phone rang to let the volunteers know where the fire was. He couldn’t wait to pull on his turnout gear and head to the station. Bob was also an avid blood donor from the time he was 18. Over his lifetime he became a Centennial Donor, donating over 400 times. However, Bob’s greatest joys were his family and his home. He was a devoted husband to Lois, his wife of 69 years and loving father to his two children David and Susanne. He and Lois kept a beautiful yard, full of plants and dozens of roses. He also enjoyed ‘jeeping’ through the back country of California and Nevada, rebuilding a 1946 Willys flatfender to help him get there. Many priceless family memories were made bouncing along in that little jeep. Bob is survived by his two children, son-in-law Michael Milton, sister Marjorie Weir, sister-inlaw Mary Ann Schroth and numerous nieces and nephews. He was loved by many and we will miss him every day. A special thank you to the skilled and compassionate caregivers who made it possible for Bob to stay in his home. At his request there will be no services.

Avory Duane Abbott Sept. 24, 1930-June 25, 2020

Avory Duane Abbott passed away peacefully on June 25, 2020. Avory was born in Burwell, Neb., on Sept. 24, 1930 to Ernest and Alta Abbott on the family farm. They all moved to Glendale, Calif., in 1932 where Ernest took a job as a streetcar conductor. Avory’s siblings Vorda and Arvin were born later. Avory had a wonderful childhood growing up in Glendale. He graduated from Glendale High School in 1948. Shortly after, he married Doris Jane Coady in January 1950. Together they had four children: Twins Verna Layne and Vallari Lynne in 1950 then, Leslie Jane in 1955 and Andrew Avory in 1958. Avory worked for Ralph’s Grocery Stores starting in 1949, starting out as a “Boxboy” and working his way up to manager. He worked there for 29 years. In 1976 Avory was remarried to June Durkee. In 1978, Avory and June moved to Pollock Pines, a small town in Northern California. There they bought a home and a gas station/ minimart named 13 Mile Post. For 38 years they ran the store which became very successful. Avory became a very beloved business owner in the small community. He was well liked by his employees as well as his patrons. Many in the community considered Avory as the town’s “Mayor.” He was a friendly, funny, fair businessman. Avory loved to tell stories and talk about the weather, especially the snow. Many locals in the community would stop by the store just to say hello or to chat with Avory. He always had a kind word and a smile on his face. Avory and June loved to square dance, play bridge, attend Broadway shows and travel by RV throughout the western U.S. In 2015, after Avory sold 13 Mile and retired, he still came to the store a few times a week to hang out and greet customers until his health didn’t allow him to any longer. Even through his health struggles, he always had a smile on his face and still loved to tell his stories. Avory will be dearly missed by his family, friends and his community of Pollock Pines. Avory is preceded in death by his wife June and his daughter Vallari Lynne. He is survived by his daughters Verna Layne, Leslie Jane and son Andrew Avory. He is also survived by nine grandchildren, eight greatgrandchildren, two great-great grandchildren, four step-children and many step-grandchildren. As per Avory’s request, there will not be any services.

Tree farm’s treasured sign snatched up, posts and all Dawn Hodson Staff writer The sign for Poverty Hill Tree Farm has stood on the corner of Bedford Avenue and Poverty Hill Drive in Placerville for well over 40 years, according to Greg Fluckey, owner of the Christmas tree farm, but late last month that sign went missing. A neighbor on June 26 notified Greg and wife Darcie the sign was gone, posts and all. A sign with sentimental and historical value, Fluckey said it was his father, Dale Fluckey, who carved it. His father was also the one who built a home on the 7.5acre property and later established a Christmas tree farm there in 1965. "There had never been any vandalism or destruction of the signs previously," said Greg. "Dad made that sign. Hand made the sign ... He made all the signs for this place." Greg added he thinks whoever took it had to pull the sign's posts out of the ground. A fixture in the community for decades, Greg said the farm opens the day after Thanksgiving, selling

Kiley’s Corner

Restoring checks and balances

eparation of powers is one of the first lessons taught in civics class. It’s foundational to our form of government. By spreading powers among different actors and institutions, it was our founders’ most important innovation for safeguarding individual KEVIN KILEY liberty. But California has forgotten that lesson these last few months. Since he ordered a stay-at-home order in March, Gov. Gavin Newsom has issued 45 executive orders, unilaterally changing more than 220 duly enacted laws. While the governor is granted additional authority during a state of emergency, many of these decrees fall outside the bounds of the public health threat. For example, one order altered liability rules for businesses; another overhauled an election that was still five months away. This has sparked bipartisan protest. One leading Democratic Assembly member decried the governor’s “complete authority to do whatever he wants.” With one branch of government, the executive, repeatedly stepping into the territory of a second, the legislative, my colleague James Gallagher and I turned to the third branch: the judiciary. On June 12 we filed a legal challenge in Superior Court to restore the appropriate balance of power. Our challenge was successful. The court issued a temporary restraining order that suspends the governor’s most recent executive order and further restrains him from “exercising any further legislative powers in violation of the California Constitution and applicable statute, specifically from unilaterally amending, altering or changing existing statutory law or making new statutory law.” A cavalcade of lawyers with the Attorney General’s Office has since arrived on the scene, hoping to reverse the court’s order. Their arguments all seek to expand, rather than rein in, executive authority. For instance, they argue that allowing the legislative process to work as intended would cause “uncertainty and delays.” But this is a feature of our system, not a bug; it was exquisitely designed to prevent the swift passage of new laws so the powers of government cannot be exercised without thoughtful consideration. The attorney general also argues the invalidated executive order was “essential” to “protecting Californians from further harm by the COVID-19 pandemic.” While this was true of certain executive actions specifically related to public health, it is not the case for many other orders. That’s an important distinction: Claiming a public health justification for actions that plainly lack one weakens our ability to build trust for policies that are genuinely needed to address COVID-19 or future health threats. Our founders understood that strong executive actions might from time to time be needed to confront emergencies. But they also believed checks and balances should never be a casualty of a crisis. It’s time to restore the proper constitutional balance in California government. Assemblyman Kevin Kiley represents the 6th Assembly District, which includes parts of El Dorado, Placer and Sacramento counties. You can follow him on Twitter @KevinKileyCA.

Letters to the Editor Open letter to Gov. Newsom EDITOR: ov. Newsom, when did you abdicate your responsibilities as governor of California? You are so concerned about the recent increase in COVID-19 cases that you’ve passed a law requiring everyone to wear masks in public all the time but everyone, including you, could see this coming and you knowingly let it happen. Allowing protests over George Floyd’s murder (and the consequent rioting) to occur was bound to cause an increase in COVID cases. Your responsibilities as governor include the health and safety of all Californians. The murder of George Floyd was unconscionable and absolutely deserves the attention, protests and consequences it is generating. However, you, who are so concerned about the number of people congregating in public parks and venues, did not suppress the protests or offer a different method of protesting that wouldn’t have exposed so many. Its obvious that your political leanings are more important to you than your desire to protect your residents. I am a registered Democrat but will never vote for you and will sign any recall petition I see. Start doing your job and protect all Californians. CHARLANE GROSS Pollock Pines

Resistance to wearing masks EDITOR: taught elementary school for years. I successfully explained subtraction with regrouping to 7-year-olds and long division to 9-year-olds. So perhaps I can explain infectious disease prevention to those who seem to have forgotten lessons learned in childhood. Let’s start at the very beginning: Many illnesses are caused by viruses or bacteria, commonly known as germs. Germs can make you sneeze, cough, have an upset stomach or a fever. Some germs can make you seriously ill or cause death. We try to keep from getting or giving germs in several ways. We wash hands after using the bathroom or playing with pets and before eating or drinking. We don’t share cups, glasses or lollipops with other people. We cover coughs and sneezes. There’s a bad new germ in the world called the coronavirus/COVID-19. It’s an actual germ, not an anti-Trump plot. Most of the millions of people who have been sickened by this virus couldn’t care less about or have never heard of Donald Trump,

Democrats or the deep state. Some people with COVID-19 don’t feel sick at all. Some people just feel like they have the flu. Unfortunately many people become very sick or die. There is no way to tell just how the virus will affect any given person. Nobody gets a free pass because of youth or good health. We are all at some level of risk. To prevent the spread of COVID-19 we do all the things we learned to do as children. Also, because some folks can have COVID-19 and not know it and because the virus is primarily spread through airborne particles, we do a couple of extra things. We keep physically distant from people we don’t live with. We wear masks. The homemade masks most of us wear are not particularly efficient at protecting the wearer. However they do protect other people if we are asymptomatic carriers. If I wear a mask and you wear a mask we protect each other. If one of us doesn’t bother, the other is at risk. Yes, I despise Donald Trump. But I don’t wear a mask to disrespect him or to make a political statement. I wear a mask to protect you, my neighbors. How about you do the same? MARY LOU GILES Cameron Park

Clay Street EDITOR: see the clique that runs Placerville is still trying to ram the Clay Street project down the throats of a city that doesn’t want it. They are, it appears, determined to give their developer friends what they have already donated over $70,000 for. First they tried it with a roundabout. But the people through a referendum rammed that down their throats and told that cloistered club that runs this town just where they could stick those roundabouts. So now the “club” that runs this town will ram Clay Street down your throats by replacing their lost roundabout with a four-way stop sign at the Clay Street, Main Street and Cedar Ravine intersection. They’ve already got the farmers market moved out of sight and out of mind from where it was in the Ivy House parking lot, which will be destroyed by running Clay Street right through it. Unfortunately when you have this clique with their many vested interests that run this town on one side and the people on the other, the people lose. GEORGE ALGER Placerville

It’s Always Something Else

Recognizing the historical significance of Juneteenth

missed Juneteenth. Actually, I had already written a column and it was being published when I realized that it was June 19. Up until last year, I had never heard of Juneteenth. El Dorado County is a fairly homogenous place. While there are WENDY Native Americans who have lived here for centuries, Mexican immigrants and Mexican-Americans, people of Indian ancestry, African-Americans and AsianAmericans, the majority of the people who live here are white. I went to high school during a period of racial unrest and riots at Sacramento High School — but my high school was out in the suburbs and we had only two black students. I have AfricanAmerican friends and almost relatives; I taught African-American students but very few of them since there were few African-Americans in El Dorado County at the time.

So while I don’t think of myself as a bigot or a racist, I just don’t have much knowledge of what it is like to be a person of color in the United States. And that leads me to Juneteenth. I’m a history buff and while I can tell you when the Emancipation Proclamation was passed SCHULTZ — Sept. 22, 1862 — and when it went into effect — Jan. 1, 1863 — I didn’t know that it only freed slaves from the southern Confederate states. Border states like Texas weren’t actually part of the southern Confederate states, so slaves there weren’t freed until two months after the Civil War ended and the Army of Trans-Mississippi finally surrendered. Union Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston with an army and announced freedom from slavery on June 19. And still, there were slaves who weren’t freed until December 1865, two-anda-half years after the proclamation became effective, because they lived

in Delaware, Kentucky or New Jersey, which weren’t included in the proclamation because they were Union states. I don’t remember learning this in any of my U.S. history classes. It was more like, “Lincoln freed the slaves in 1863 and the Civil War continued until 1865.” Maybe, if I had attended a high school with a majority of black students, I would have learned the details … but maybe not. There are a lot of details left out of textbooks and curricula. According to the 2010 census, 13 percent of U.S. population identifies as African-American. In cities like Detroit the percentage of African-Americans is more like 74 percent. Many states already recognize and celebrate Juneteenth and now that the details left out of our history textbooks are all over the media, Juneteenth might get recognition by all races as the day when a terrible wrong began the path to correction and the mind of a nation began to change. I am not racist but I am ignorant. I didn’t understand why it was considered racist to say “all lives matter”

until someone told me the analogy her teenaged son used to explain it to her: “It’s as if there was a street full of houses and someone said, ‘These five houses are important,’ and another person responds that all the houses on the street are important. Then the first person says, ‘But these five houses are on fire.’ Black lives are the ones on fire now and we need to do something about it.” I haven’t asked friends about their experiences as people of color for the same reason I don’t use the “n” word — I was taught that assumptions and stereotypes are offensive and that I should focus on getting to know the person, not their color. Because of this I don’t ask my friends what it was like growing up as a black person, whether they celebrate Kwanza and Juneteenth or whether they have experienced racism in their daily life. I don’t know what their experiences have been unless someone offers that information. As a result I have never had a real, substantive conversation with my

COVID-19 has left its ugly mark on the world, with a global economy that is reeling in its wake, and schools enjoy no exception from the grief. They could use the extra funding. The Active 20-30 Club is a volunteerbased, nonprofit organization composed of individuals between the ages of 20 and 39 who are committed to better the lives of children. Anyone who knows of a local teacher who might benefit from receiving essential classroom supplies as a result of this Friday’s dinner may contact goldrush1034@gmail.com. Tell the club members why you think your

nominee should be considered and describe that particular classroom’s need for help. Chances are there won’t be any barbecued ribs or chicken left to send their way — but money for supplies leaves a nice aftertaste too. The dinners will be served from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Friday. Get there early, as the Curbside for a Cause dinners have proved highly popular to the public, with connoisseurs also appreciating the direct-to-vehicle service that seeks to thwart the coronavirus.

We’re seeing a huge increase, and that’s why I think we’re seeing an increase in positive tests.” Novasel said she was open to exploring a regional approach with other local governments, including Placer County, the city of South Lake Tahoe and Washoe and Douglas Counties in Nevada, in solving the area’s coronavirus problem. Williams said the Tahoe areas of Placer and Nevada Counties saw recent

increases in coronavirus cases as well. In the state of Nevada, Washoe County saw a 40% increase in cases from June 15 to 29. Incline Village has had 32 residents test positive for the virus since March. Sixty-five residents in Douglas County have tested positive for the virus, including five in Stateline and two in Zephyr Cove. As of Wednesday, there have been 198 known coronavirus cases in El Dorado County since officials discovered the county’s first case March 20. Seventythree of those cases are still active. No residents are known to have died from the coronavirus in the county.

bike paths will be a bit more narrow than originally envisioned, and some planned retaining walls won’t be built at all, there will be sidewalks extended farther than first thought by city staff and paving of problem intersections. Some of the savings will be spent on officially documenting the historical grinding rock site, a cost that will run $139,421, according to Neves’ presentation to the City Council. While the Wopumnes tribe says it “culturally owns” the grinding rock site, it is on private property — and the owner has not been pleased, said Neves. The city engineer explained because the Wopumnes tribe is not registered either by the state or federally, they are not on the approved list put out by the Native American Heritage Commission. Therefore, the city would not have contacted the Wopumnes as a matter of course. “We don’t make this NAHC list — but we have to follow it,” said Neves. Members of the Wopumnes tribe brought a credentialed archeologist from UC Davis to the site shortly after the city ceased work there, according to Neves. The property owner apparently was not aware of that activity, said Neves, and added that the tribe “never had permission to be on that site.” “I spoke to the property owner today,” she added, speaking to the council on June 23. “He’s a little frustrated about it.” A caller into the Zoom-assisted meeting took umbrage with the way Neves was portraying her positive news about money-savings, saying the city engineer “should be fired” for “destroying an archeological site.” Michael Drobesh added he saw Neves’ presentation as nothing more than an example of a city official covering for her actions. Neves calmly said that because of the environmental clearance of the project, which was signed off by the City Council at that time, “we would have been 100% within our rights to excavate there.” “We didn’t know about it,” said Neves, referring to the existence of the historical site. “The resource is only visible from the private property. It’s above the roadway.” She added the contractor had suggested encroaching onto the private property to better facilitate the planned retaining wall; contractors are

allowed to make such suggestions as the project dictates, according to the law. Additionally, the new driveway “actually misses the resource,” said Neves, who added that city officials and Wopumnes tribe members have met with the property owner at the site twice since the city stopped work there. Asked by Councilwoman Kara Taylor whether any part of the historical site, including the grinding rock, had been damaged, Neves said, “Yes, unfortunately. “That was by (a member of) the Wopumnes tribe,” she added. The city engineer explained the tribal member “took a piece of wood from a pallet and started to excavate into the (site).” “That violated the integrity of the resource,” said Neves. “The archeologist noted it; we have a video and Caltrans has asked to see it.” Because the Upper Broadway Bike Lanes project is at least partially funded with state and federal grant money, Caltrans is the oversight agency involved. Neves reminded the council that it wasn’t just the city that signed off on the environmental clearance two years ago — “Caltrans was told this too.” “It’s not just hearsay — it’s 20-people-say,” said Neves. Nonetheless, Wopumnes Niesenan Mewuk tribe members contend they are not being included in matters that rightfully should be their own. Susie Tripp, who began by telling the City Council she was born and raised in El Dorado County, states in a letter that was read into the record that her Native American family is documented by the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs. “Before records were kept, our family signed the 1851 Cosumnes River Treaty, our great-great-great-grandfather is in the Smithsonian Institute ... our families are in El Dorado County museums ... we have family cemeteries, roads in our name ... “We are the indigenous tribe of El Dorado County ... it’s time to recognize the true tribe in this city.” City officials said during the June 23 meeting they have offered to help the Wopumnes tribe with any paperwork that might assist them in becoming officially recognized, offering to hold up the city’s official role without delay. Reportedly the tribe has started that process but has not finished the application, according to city officials.

COMICS ■ SHOE by Jeff MacNelly

Content of the American character Susan Laird Democrat correspondent “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” hose words, spoken by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at the Lincoln Memorial in 1963 launched a renewal of the American Dream for all Americans.

As we celebrate 244 years as a nation it is a time to remember a few truths. America is a unique nation — revolutionary, in fact. It was the first to declare in its founding document that all men are created equal, that there are proper purposes of government with the consent of the governed and that there are limits on political authority. Humanity is flawed. But the Declaration of Independence sets forth an ideal that we can do better. No man or woman should be intimidated from the pursuit of happiness. Each American is free to work hard ... or not. To achieve ... or not. No one has the lawful power to tell Americans that they cannot — or will not — succeed. Two films available via online or streaming services this month address these important

issues, among others. One is a musical. The other is a black-andwhite documentary. Both are controversial. Both are wildly successful in their venues. And both draw on the AfricanAmerican experience to teach all Americans just what freedom really is.

‘Hamilton’

The climax of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech at the Lincoln Memorial on Aug. 28, 1963, in Washington, D.C. The winner of numerous awards, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s “Hamilton: An American Musical” was a Broadway success from its debut in 2015. Until the temporary closing of all theaters in New York City, tickets to “Hamilton” were among the most highly desired. Tickets often were ordered a year in advance. Miranda was inspired to write “Hamilton” after reading a biography on Alexander Hamilton. Few Americans knew much (if anything) about this Founding Father other than he graces the $10 bill. Miranda wanted to change that. A talented artist in his own right, Miranda was also concerned about the decline of Broadway. Audiences were falling off for live theater.

Turns out, Miranda’s concept was brilliant. Audiences embraced the music and the story told about this amazing immigrant and his ideas. And there is the brilliance: the ideas. The “idea” of America, as presented by the musical, is that America is for everyone. Books on the Founding Fathers found a new audience, too. A ticket to “Hamilton” in New York costs $500 or more. But you can see an original cast performance this month on Disney+. The streaming service is $6.99 a month. “Hamilton” makes its livestream debut July 3.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Communication that starts with “no offense” or “with all due respect” usually ends with notions that are offensive and disrespectful. When people declare themselves upfront, flip it. The opposite might be truer. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People with achy hearts will find their way to the sweet balm of your warm attention. You do not have to do much to help them feel better, and, in fact, you’ll be most effective when you keep it brief.

L TAEK

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). What would you most like? You can have what you set out to get, as long as you stick to one thing. If you chase after two or more things, you’ll end up empty-handed. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If there is a discrepancy between what’s on your face and what’s in your heart, that’s emotional labor. Recognize the different ways you work to and give yourself credit -- and breaks when you need them. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). To move from point A to point B, you’re going to need more than perseverance and a plan. You’re also going to need the best team you can find. Magic brews as you start talking about this.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don’t think about earning another person’s trust because you are the real deal and it wouldn’t occur to you that anyone would doubt it. Masqueraders abound, but there’s no substitute for the real thing.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A good mentor may come from a different background and work in a different field and still have exactly what you need including a treasure trove of mistakes and the learning that goes with that.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Change happens. It’s a day to use a pencil, not a pen. Or, more likely, a day not to text or email because, if you change your mind later, you can’t take those back.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). This is an intensely psychological game. Whether you win or lose will depend on your ability to accurately sum up a situation. Watch and predict before you make your move.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are kind to everyone you talk to and everyone you deal with, and it’s because you genuinely want to contribute to the good experience of others. Be wary of anyone who treats servers badly.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Someone will be willing to sacrifice along with you to help you realize a goal. You’ll have to demonstrate your own sacrifice first to know from whence your support shall come.

‘I’ll Be Gone in the Dark’

COCINA MEXICANO AUTHENTICO!

OPEN AGAIN FOR DINE-IN!

Joshua B. Porter he most recent true-crime Democrat correspondent miniseries has been unleashed by HBO this week for “Murderinos” (according to Google, that’s a person with borderline obsessive interest in true crime and the specific nature and details of disturbing murders). Personally, I like a dash of absurdity that a fictitious horror movie use to digest the grisly nature of humanity, but to each their own. There are plenty of people, including my wife, who are fascinated by the terrible but gripping nature of these cases. Should I be concerned? “I’ll Be Gone In The Dark” is an examination of the unsolved crimes (until now) of the Original Night Stalker/East Area Rapist Joseph James DeAngelo, who terrorized California in the 1970s and 1980s. It is based on the book “I’ll Be Gone In The Dark: One Woman’s Obsessive Search For The Golden State Killer” by the late Michelle McNamara. This is important because her strong presence in this mini-series, even posthumously, is both a positive and a negative for this docuseries. Between 1974 and 1986 the Golden State Killer — a term coined by McNamara — committed at least 13 murders, more than 50 rapes and 100 burglaries, mostly in Northern California (a majority taking place in the Sacramento region). Thanks to DNA evidence he was captured on April 24, 2018. On June 29, 2020, DeAngelo pleaded guilty to all of these horrible crimes, which was the morning after this series premiered. Talk about a blessing from the Film Gods. “I’ll Be Gone In The Dark” is a well-made series, stuffed with interviews with former detectives, journalists, the brave victims and other “murderinos” who befriended McNamara in her quest and all share responsibility in getting this book finished after her untimely death at 46 in 2016. My issue lies not with the talented and gratifying presence of Ms. McNamara herself but more the series’ use of

The issue I have with episode one, and I assume a majority of the series will be similar, is the tone. What story are you trying to tell? One of the horrendous crimes and nearly half a century long case that was finally cracked or the obsessive quest of a writer trying to piece together facts over the course of a decade? I understand these two are connected, but tone-wise they are quite opposed and incredibly distracting while watching events unfold. Ping-ponging back and forth from the detailed account of a victim who is reliving events that happened when she was underage to the happy go-lucky nature of McNamara does not make for even filmmaking. If you are going to use the audio and archived interviews with McNamara that’s fine, but pepper her biography out and maybe spotlight her in a specific episode later in the series when her book comes out in the timeline of events. She was a major part of this case but not the only part of this n

values of self-empowerment, freedom of thought and breaking the chains that hold one back. This work features media personalities, ministers, civil rights activists, veterans and a self-employed plumber who seeks to know the truth of being black in America. The film enjoyed a 9.9 rating on iMDb as of June 29, with more than 650 reviews. Told through the eyes of black conservative Americans, the film shows a perspective and teaches a history few hear about in schools today: how black America went from 5% literacy in the slave era to 50% literacy just 50 years later — an astonishing leap of achievement — and valued education as the way to improve each generation; and how leaders like Booker T. Washington established schools and colleges to teach an emerging people how to participate in the great American experiment by establishing businesses, by becoming physicians, lawyers and MBAs. Not everyone was pleased to see this. The film begins by explaining that term “Uncle Tom” is a pejorative applied to persons of color who refuse to conform to what the protagonists view as a monolith culture controlled by those would have them give up on their dreams of freedom and achievement. (“Didn’t they read the book?” asks one). The film takes this matter head-on, detailing how America is for all people and that no one has the right to dictate to the conscience

of an individual American. Nor does anyone have the right to shame an American for wanting to become a success. Viewers of every ethnicity will find themselves shedding any excuses for failure. It’s about having the American dream, as Dr. King so rightly put it. “Uncle Tom” can be watched online for $19.99 at uncletom.com.

Dream a dream of freedom Both productions encourage the viewer to drop any sense of victimhood — it will not benefit you and could cause great harm. Instead, embrace your birthright to pursue your individual success as you see it. This is the greatest country in the world. As Hamilton raps, “I’m just like my country/I’m young, scrappy and hungry/And I’m not throwing away my shot.” This Independence Day, may we look forward together as a people to better days. As Dr. King put it: “This will be the day when all of God’s children will be able to sing with new meaning, ‘My country ‘tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrims’ pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring.’” May God bless America.

Kudos to McNamara for the incredible work she did leading to the arrest of such a horrible man. I just hope editors of the project lock in on the tone a little better in subsequent episodes.
