POPE FRANCIS “The People’s Pope” Died on Easter Monday, April 21st, 2025 at 88

P

ope Francis was born under the name Jorge Mario Bergoglio on December 17th , 1936 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to Italian parents. He chose his papal name in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi. He was known throughout his tenure as “The People’s Pope,” because he was much more in tune with the common people than many previous Popes. He was a man who stood for rights and equality for all. He had the utmost concerns for the poor, migrants and refugees around the world and he was someone who lived with the utmost humility and to that extent he refused to accept the opulence that the Catholic Church and the Vatican offered him and preferred to live like the common people because he felt that a man of God should live as the people do. He was the first Pope in 120 years to not live in the Apostolic Palace and instead chose to live in the Santa Marta guesthouse within Vatican City. He also only wore his Papal Robes during ceremony and preferred to wear more common basic robes and slacks. He also refused to wear the bright White or Red shoes and instead opted for more modest black shoes.

Continued from page 9 Pope Francis was considered to be one of the most popular Popes in history and with good reason. Not only was his humility and dedication to the poor and displaced extraordinary but during his twelve year tenure from 2013 until 2025, he was known as a Pope of many “firsts,” something that historically makes him one of the most significant Popes in Papal legacy. He was the First Jesuit Order Catholic Pope, and the first non-European born Pope since the 8th Century. Being from Argentina he was the first Pope to come from Latin America, The Southern Hemisphere and the first Pope from anywhere in the Americas. And as stated previously he was the first Pope in more than a century to refuse the opulent clothing, jewelry and living quarters that are typical of the position. He was also the first Pope to show significant support for the LGBTQ community, although other Popes have preached peace and acceptance of the community, he was the first to state publicly that he

10

personally endorsed the idea of same-sex civil unions, and even though the formal position of the Catholic Church is against the idea, and blessings of the Union are forbidden he stated that same-sex couples should be able to be blessed within a Catholic Church as long as it was not specifically a part of the liturgical context or ceremony. He has a famous statement where he was quoted as saying “Who am I to Judge?”

He was a also a Pope of the World. He was very active in Political Policies and International Relations. He was very supportive and helpful when President Obama restored diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba, he personally negotiated a deal with the People’s Republic of China to define the Communist Party’s influence in appointing Chinese bishops and he helped negotiate for peace between Palestine and Israel, signing the Vatican’s first treaty with the Islamic State of Palestine and to further this, in the last 2 years he called for war crime investigations regarding Israel’s actions in Palestine.

regarding Israel’s actions in Palestine. He was also known for his very Liberal and Democratic ideals, and the support and activism he brought to the table regarding climate change and environmental protection and also his strong stance against the consumerism and overdevelopment that plagues the whole world.

All in all, Pope Francis was truly an exemplary Pope who proved through actions and not just words that he supported all men and creatures created by God and supported the ideal of Peace and Equality amongst all of them. The world was deeply saddened by his untimely death on April 21st, 2025, Easter Monday, when he died suddenly of a cerebral stroke and cardiac arrest. This came suddenly as he had just survived a severe case of pneumonia the previous month and delivered his Easter Address in St. Peter’s Square the day before his passing. He was 88 years old.

Pope Francis stood for all that was right in the world and always defended those who felt oppressed, he will be missed by millions of people around the world but his legacy will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace. by Michael Devine u

VAL KILMER Batman and Top Gun Actor Died at 65

V

al Edward Kilmer was born on December 31st , 1959, in Los Angeles, CA. He died unexpectedly on April 1st, 2025 due to complications from Pneumonia. The tragedy was extremely sad and unfortunate especially after this incredible leading actor survived a throat cancer diagnosis eleven years prior. Val is best known for his iconic roles of Batman in Batman Forever, Iceman in Top Gun, and as the lead in The Saint.

Val Kilmer went to high school and later to the Juilliard School's Drama Division with famed actor Kevin Spacey. At the time Kilmer was the youngest person to be accepted to the Julliard Drama Division.

Because of his theater education his earliest roles were stage performances, beginning in 1983 with a role in The Slab Boys, off Broadway, which he acted alongside Kevin Bacon and Sean Penn. His first TV role was in the form of an after school public service special called One Too Many where he co-starred with Michelle Pfeiffer in a PSA about drinking and driving.

The first big break came in 1984 where he was cast as the lead for the musical comedy Top Secret!

Where Kilmer played a rock and roll star who was also a spy; interestingly, Val sang all of the songs for real and later released an record album under the name of the character, Nick Rivers. And soon after he was cast as the iconic wingman for Maverick, Iceman, in the epic film Top Gun. Top Gun was the first film Kilmer had a co-starring role in that became a major blockbuster success and interesting but sad fact, his reprisal of the role in the 2022 sequel Top Gun: Maverick would be his last appearance on the big screen. All in all, over his career Kilmer had roles in over 80 movies and 8 television shows. He was a chameleon of sorts and able to step into roles of every genre, he appeared in comedies, dramas, action 12

adventures, westerns, historical films, crime dramas, science fiction films, and fantasy films. He was so talented at jumping into any role given that in 1992 Roger Ebert stated, "If there is an award for the most unsung leading man of his generation, Kilmer should get it". Continued 0n page 14

Continued from page 12

The super star’s career took a down turn in 2014 after he was diagnosed with severe Throat Cancer that unfortunately he had ignored the signs of for years and by the time he finally pursued treatment, the damage to his throat and voice were permanent. Although, he did have a few acting roles between 2014 and 2022 the speaking was limited in nature. During that time he also worked with AI company Sonantic to recreate voice models using archival footage and AI to recreate his failing voice. Although, this technology was never officially used, even though there are rumors it was used in Top Gun: Maverick, hopefully one day this tech will be able to help someone else.

Aside from acting, as a devout Christian Scientist and partial Native American he devoted his non-acting life to helping people. In 1998, Kilmer traveled to Iraq with AmeriCares to deliver humanitarian aid, the first US humanitarian airlift to Iraq since 1990. He also made several similar trips to New Orleans, LA after Hurricane Katrina. He was also a very vocal advocate and supporter of Native American rights and affairs and also of environmental protection.

All in all, Val Kilmer lived a worthy life, however he was taken far too soon and with the tragic loss of this actor and singer’s vocal prowess in 2014, the tragedy was extended for many years.

However through it all, Kilmer maintained a very positive and faithful outlook on life and never gave up on his passions. He was an iconic actor and stalwart in his religious and cultural beliefs. He will be remembered and missed by his family, friends and his millions of fans around the world. Rest in Peace good sir, may you find your way to the Nightland and live on forever in peace.

SKIP MARLEY “CLOSE (Remix featuring Ding Dong & Masicka)”

A

fro-futurist artist and director Gianni Lee brings dancehall into the next century with a cutting edge AI-assisted lyric video for GRAMMY®-winning, multi-platinum artist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Skip Marley's “Close (Remix featuring Ding Dong and Masicka), " out now via Tuff Gong International/Def Jam Recordings. The brand new visuals premiered today on the Tuff Gong TV YouTube channel, taking viewers on a wild ride through a post-apocalyptic metropolis where humanoid dance crews, footballers, and bikers rule the streets to the soundtrack of a Caribbean beat.

"For the Skip Marley visual, I used AI in an intentionally artistic way—breaking down live-action footage, screen grabs, and found video to create a mosaic of animated, moving images," revealed Lee about the process. The Philly native, who has previously collaborated with major entities like Jordan Brand, Adidas, and New York City Football Club, went on to add, "the foundation of the video was rooted in real, tangible visuals that I shot or sourced, then processed frame-by-frame through advanced AI prompts to build something new yet deeply connected to the original footage. It wasn’t about using AI for the sake of trend or convenience. Every shot was selected with care, and the process was guided by a strong visual concept.

18

RED INK MAGAZINE

I storyboarded the treatment like I would any traditional film, but instead of stopping at raw footage, I layered it with artistic manipulation.

The goal was to keep the viewer visually stimulated, while also creating something cohesive that spoke to the emotion of the music."

Known for his signature use of Afro-futurist symbolism and bold, post- apocalyptic imagery, Lee explores Black identity through a futuristic lens, crafting alternate realities that challenge societal norms and elevate cultural narratives.

For the "Close" remix, Lee explained, "this proj

ect was about pushing what’s possible with new tools while staying grounded in narrative and intention. I treated AI not just as a generator, but as a collaborator—one that responds to vision, direction, and detail. The final result feels more like a moving painting than a conventional video, and I think it reflects the soul and power behind the track."
