“FINDING OSCAR”

____________________________________________________

LOSING OSCAR Ironic that the environment ag program at SFCC chose to name a fish who is not seen as an individual. Fishes are intelligent beings who, in the wild, have rich social/emotional lives and language. I have seen how these individuals are used in the farming program at SFCC and it is not a life any of the fish would choose if given a choice. The title of the article “Finding Oscar” is a take on the movie Finding Nemo. The film’s message was about letting sea animals be free in their own environment. Sadly, the sale of captive clownfish skyrocketed after that film’s success. The arrogance of humans who do not see other species as anything other than property is much of what got us into the environmental crisis we face today.

LOVE YOUR MARKET Thank you for your insightful article about the Santa Fe Farmers Market. For the past 18 years, this market has been my grocery store. The market can not survive without consistent, weekly local support.

Its products cost the same or less than a natural foods store, with a fraction of the carbon footprint. If the government didn’t subsidize commercial farming and livestock cultivation with our tax dollars, the prices at conventional grocery stores would rival those of organic purveyors.

CORRECTIVE SKINCARE BY APPOINTMENT This means that every time we purchase conventional products, we are paying at the counter and paying through our taxes to degrade the environment in many ways: toxic residues from pesticides and chemical fertilizers, fouled waterways, proliferation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, accelerated greenhouse gases, the inhumane treatment of farm animals and a plethora of other ills. Considering the need for food security in our region, the expertise of local growers in navigating climate change, and the tremendous potential of organic soil as a means of carbon catchment, the pleasure of patronizing this vibrant market qualifies as an essential tool for self-preservation.

LETTERS NOT THE LAST WORD

A Fiesta Dialogue A

fter months of closed-door, invitation-only meetings, representatives of the Santa Fe Fiesta Council, City of Santa Fe, local Catholic church and Native leaders emerged with a big announcement: The public Entrada pageant on the Plaza would not be a part of the 2018 Fiesta and would be replaced by a new event. Statements from those who participated in the process were full of words like “reconciliation” and “harmony.” Although designated group spokesman Regis Pecos declined to interview with SFR as we broke the news, his canned message on Aug. 29 included the sentence, “We listened to one another, we learned from one another.” What follows are commentaries from other members of the community.

A TURNING POINT In March 2015, a drunken white man named Christian Englander threw a banana onstage at a concert by the popular black comedian, Dave Chapelle. The feelings aroused by the incident inspired “Unpeeling Racism,” a groundbreaking public forum at Warehouse 21. I numbered among the panelists.

Later that year, local activists (some who attended “Unpeeling Racism”) launched renewed protests against the Entrada reenactment at the annual Fiesta.

The Warehouse 21 panel discussion wasn’t limited to a single incident involving a comedian, a banana and an unfunny racist stereotype. It was an attempt to break the ice, unraveling the long, long history of silence and cultural intolerance in Santa Fe. A portion of my commentary was paraphrased in The Santa Fe New Mexican: “Wellington said that he is surprised that old traditions such as Fiesta de Santa Fe haven’t become more inclusive to all cultures. “ But perhaps the belated and overdue sea change has finally begun to happen.

Initially, when I critiqued the Fiesta at the “Unpeeling Racism” panel event, I felt intimidated doing it because I was arguably “an outsider.”

I had moved to Santa Fe four years prior, relocating from South Carolina where I had cut my teeth confronting Southern racism. However, I knew this: The Entrada at the Fiesta de Santa Fe was a hopelessly discouraging anachronism.

Its historical bias, its facile pageantry, its disingenuousness, and its insult (to all citizens, but to Native Americans in particular) could be the

rough equivalent of continuing to call Gone with the Wind an accurate reenactment of slavery and Civil War history.

Before speaking up, I had been advised “don’t open that can of worms,” or heard intransigent defenses of the Entrada (sometimes stated in very un-politically correct language) often enough to know that there was more division inside the tri-cultural community (which, by the way, includes other cultures) than was openly admitted. I also knew that numberless Native Americans, Anglos, and, yes, Hispanics agreed with me. The problem wasn’t that sufficient numbers of Santa Feans weren’t “woke” enough.

The problem was that the much-regaled “tricultural” community was entrenched in threeway silence.

My (probably timid) deconstruction of the Entrada was well-received. I recall that Mayor Javier Gonzales tweeted his support for reforming the Fiesta. The primary credit for ending the egregious Entrada reenactment belongs to the demonstrators who turned out in 2015, 2016, and 2017.

I would also like to congratulate the Fiesta Council, the Pueblo Governors, and all those who have helped bring us to this moment at a crossroads.

The 2018 Entrada will be replaced by a community prayer gathering followed by a month-long series of events that “invite the people of Santa Fe to join in the spirit of reconciliation and dialogue.”

The future, I suspect—as traditional Santa Fe belatedly enters the 21st century—will be characterized by conflicts between voices that want to restrict the transformational dialogue to celebrations of tri-cultural unity, as opposed to voices that encourage deeper investigations of the history of social, political, and economic injustice in New Mexico, the stories of the powerful and the powerless.

The voices calling on us to challenge ourselves by broadening and deepening the discussion will usually be right.

Darryl Lorenzo Wellington is a poet, critic and activist in Santa Fe.

WE NEED TO DO THE WORK When Jason Jaime Lucero, the Fiesta Council’s 2013 Don Diego de Vargas, played the Fiesta Song at a recent School Board meeting, my heart leapt in my chest, as it always does, and seemed

SFREPORTER.COM

to beat in time with the clapping. Soon I was smiling and tapping my feet to the music. That’s what happens whenever I hear the Fiesta Song.

Images flood in—dancing feet, swirling dresses, friendly faces, fireworks, food booths, the Plaza Bandstand, light-up toys, and the concrete gym at EJ Martinez … the time, in fourth grade, when a handsome conquistador asked me to dance in the Fiesta Court assembly. That was 1984.

At a School Board meeting last month, community members spoke for several hours about the idea of limiting Fiesta Court visits to schools. My vivid happy memories were one part of the evening. So were the calls from Native Americans to end the painful reminders of conquest. Plus, I felt battered by the anger and shouting, and by hearing “Go back to where you came from,” when people who were not born here spoke. There were also frequent reminders about “a promise made and a promise kept.”

There were speeches about the importance of culture and about fears of losing it.

In the end, I voted for the recommendations of the Equity and Diversity Task Force, a group of diverse people brought together by the Santa Fe Public Schools. I trusted that their work to develop recommendations on Fiesta Court school visits was good, certainly better than what could be devised over a few emotional hours in a School Board meeting. I believe that their consideration of many facts and many options, over a process lasting six months, had created a good proposal.

Since then, I learned about the ceremony which will replace the Entrada, the result of months of discussion and process. Again, it is the work of diverse and thoughtful people. Maybe it could be better, everything always can be, but I trust in the work of these community members who did their best and worked together. It’s not perfect, but it’s probably progress.

History and tradition are living things, evolving at every moment in time. We need to actively and thoughtfully shape them with clear intent for a better community, for greater inclusion, and for constant progress. We need to continue to ask how we can heal the wounds of the past, and even those of the present. We must continue to listen and be thoughtful. So, let’s talk with each other, get ideas from the kids, learn from the elders, talk about how we can continue to improve our community celebration of Fiesta, saving the best of what went before, and finding new ways to be a strong community.

Kate Noble is a born and raised Santa Fean and member of the school board.

It has been widely disseminated that this September, during the Fiesta de Santa Fe, the Entrada will not be performed on the Plaza. That bastion of a bygone racist era and tribute to rapists, murderers and thieves will finally be put to rest. That pageant, created by white men to promote tourism, but widely held as a “Hispanic tradition,” is ending. And yet, the Fiesta Court, led by Don Diego and his Queen, have been parading around Santa Fe for the last several weeks, spreading their message of conquest and Spanish supremacy. And they are still in our schools.

This mythologizing of a non-existent Eurocentric ideal, this Spanish identity seemingly devoid of 300 years of cultural exchange, intermarriage and immigration, is still alive and well. Absent truth and acceptance, nothing has changed. What have we learned and where do we go from here?

For the past three years, Indigenous activists and our allies had gathered to protest this genocide parade. After the protest of 2017, after numerous civil rights violations, eight arrests and one of the largest militarized police presence ever seen in downtown Santa Fe, various leaders and stakeholders gathered to determine what to do about the Entrada. This well-meaning group gathered in secret throughout the year to decide the fate of this celebration of settler colonialism. Since the meetings were closed, we have only the media reports of who was present. Based on those reports, the gathering was overwhelmingly male. None of the activists who fought so hard for this change were included.

None of the students or parents who suffered the presence of the Fiesta Court in SFPS were included. None of the Indigenous women who put their bodies on the line in 2017 were included. Our voices were silenced.

Last month, the SFPS Board voted in favor of only allowing the Fiesta Court to visit grades four, seven and nine. They fail to recognize, however, that many of these students are too young to understand the reason behind the Fiesta Court visits, and thus, [are being conditioned] to believe the lies that are being celebrated.

The City of Santa Fe, Los Caballeros de Vargas and the Fiesta Council attempted to silence us on Sept. 8, 2017. We were not silent.

We will never be silent again. Our demands were not met by this current resolution. The celebration of conquest must end. Any vestige of the conquistadors must be removed from SFPS. For the last few months, we have been attacked on social media and called out in public places as “outsiders.” As Indigenous people, all of this land is our homeland. Our ancestors have been here for millennia. How can we be outsiders on our own land? We do not need to celebrate the past; we carry the past with us. Our lives are rooted in the land where our ancestors emerged. What we do, we do for the love of our people, the love of our land and our desire for peace.

Before There’s Smoke Lawsuit challenging wildfire mitigation calls for more study, public input before moving forward

T

his time of year, a few purple aster and yellow arnica blooms spot the trailsides beneath a dense and diverse array of pine, fir and aspen trees on a path a 15-minute drive from the Plaza at the Black Canyon Campground. Some of the aspens are old enough that their bark has thickened and gnarled. Visit in spring and a hairy woodpecker, one of the indicator species the Forest Service uses to monitor forest health, might emerge from a nest in a hollowed snag; local birders spotted one there this year.

In another month or so, this area is slated to see its trees thinned and piled, the first phase of a planned Forest Service project for 1,800 acres in the Hyde Park area.

“We’re not going to broadly or uniformly cut trees down,” says Hannah Bergemann, fireshed coordinator for the Santa Fe National Forest. “The plan is to create some heterogeneity. We’re not just going to take a broad stroke.”

That’s not how the plan reads to Sam Hitt, a local activist, farmer, founder of Wild Watershed and one of two birders who surveyed breeding birds in the area this year, spotting the woodpecker as one of almost 70 identified. Since 2005, Hitt has watchdogged this project, which he argues will dramatically reshape an otherwise rare roadless area just minutes from downtown. The National Environmental Policy Act mandates careful environmental study and public involvement on federal projects like this one. But this year, the agency announced plans to move forward without environmental review, citing the Healthy Forest Restoration Act’s clause exempting projects from those years-long studies if they are less than 3,000 acres and aim to limit the spread of disease or insect infestations. So Hitt sued, filing a complaint in May and a request for an injunction Aug. 28.

“When you’re taking down 90 percent of trees and every acre is affected by either tree-removal or burning,” he says, “it’s a major impact and it should be given a hard look at.”

The two sides don’t even agree on some base-level facts. Bergemann calls it “a pretty low-impact project overall” and says no heavy machinery will be used, aside from offroad vehicles used to haul in crews. But Hitt insists that the mention of tree masticators in the 2017 scoping information from the agency means those machines will soon plow into the roadless area.

Asked directly if the project would create roads, Bergemann said no, but Hitt says, “get your tape measure”—anything more than 50 inches wide counts as a road, and off-road vehicles could leave a track that wide. Hitt says there hasn’t been enough public participation. The service points to meetings held and comments taken since 2005, and a field trip early last month.

In October, the Forest Service plans to begin thinning and piling small-diameter trees on about 180 acres of Hyde Park Road, while another plan in Pacheco Canyon would burn 500 acres between the Winsor and Rio en Medio trails.

Santa Fe National Forest Service staff have been striving to make more of the forest look like this portion of the watershed, visible from the end of a trail near Hyde Memorial State Park.

The advocacy group Wild Watershed sued the Forest Service over its planned project to reduce wildfire risk in this area, alleging the plan illegally circumvented environmental review.

Prescribed burns have become a routine part of the Forest Service’s effort to reverse conditions established by a century of wildfire suppression. The Forest Service counts 800 or 900 trees per acre in an area where 30 or 40 would be more appropriate, Bergemann says.

“The trees per acre is more of an indictment of not having fire play its natural role,” says James Melonas, forest supervisor. “These trees are these spindly little things because they wouldn’t naturally be so densely packed.”

A catastrophic wildfire in the area could wipe out access to the national forest and ski basin or compromise the city’s watershed, and could affect downstream acequias and communities. The agency says its aim is to preserve the area’s wilderness qualities while mitigating the risks of such a fire.

Each season, prescribed fires prompt complaints, often about the smoke and its health effects. Those concerns are mentioned in Hitt’s lawsuit, and Ann McCampbell, a physician who advocates for chemically sensitive people like herself, has signed on to it. But the bulk of the legal case—and part of why attorney Thomas Woodbury says he thinks he can win it—argues that the agency inappropriately invoked a categorical exclusion from environmental review required by the National Environmental Policy Act and failed to comply with the Santa Fe National Forest’s management plan for protecting old-growth forests. Woodbury,

a Montana-based attorney who previously fought cases challenging the same law, called tackling the Pacheco Canyon and Hyde Park projects without a programmatic environmental assessment “shocking.”

“The definition of a categorical exclusion project is that it doesn’t have any significant cumulative effects,” Woodbury says. “In this case, that’s silly to say.”

The plan is to treat more than 4,300 acres over the two projects to change their risk of wildfire, he says, so “it doesn’t make legal sense to me that that’s not significant.”

One overlooked factor, Hitt says, is a nationwide study published in the Open Forest Science Journal that found a 2 to 7.9 percent chance that an area that’s been treated to prevent catastrophic fire will see that fire in the two decades before undergrowth returns. He also points to work at the University of British Columbia on mycorrhizal fungal networks linking tree roots. Those networks transmit biochemical signals that share nutrients, warn about resource shortages and indicate recognition of “kin.” A “mother tree” chooses which of the spindly, stunted trees has the best chance of thriving, selecting a successor with precision a human can’t replicate.

“This isn’t just woo-y Santa Fe stuff,” Hitt says. “We have to treat these forests with the kind of respect that takes into account that the whole thing is alive and it knows what it’s doing.”

A hearing for the case could be scheduled within the next month.

WEDNESDAY 12 SEPTEMBER AT 7PM LENSIC PERFORMING ARTS CENTER The Reverend William Barber, pastor at Greenleaf Christian Church and president of the North Carolina chapter of the NAACP, led the Moral Mondays movement of weekly protests and civil disobedience against the discriminatory and conservative policies of North Carolina governor Pat McCrory, and against the celebrations of Confederate history that still plague the South. Barber recently helped organize the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival.

Standing on the shoulders of the Poor People’s Campaign organized by Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968, the 2018 program involved 40 days of direct action for racial, economic, gender, and environmental justice. Barber’s three books include The Third Reconstruction: Moral Mondays, Fusion Politics, and the Rise of a New Justice Movement (2016). Cornel West says, “William Barber is the closest person we have to Martin Luther King Jr. in our midst.”

WEDNESDAY 26 SEPTEMBER AT 7PM LENSIC PERFORMING ARTS CENTER Nikhil Pal Singh is an associate professor of social and cultural analysis and history at New York University and the founding faculty director of the NYU Prison Education Program. He is the author of Race and America’s Long War (2017), in which, historian Robin Kelley argues, “Singh obliterates any myth of American peace, revealing instead that the thread tying America’s past and present is long and continuous war−hot, vicious, global, and racial.” Singh’s work helps us understand the historical sweep of racist ideology that brought us to the election of Donald Trump in 2016 and shows the connection between the election and US military defeats abroad. He writes, “Marred by military atrocities, torture scandals, fiscal waste, toxic exposure, popular opposition, and public disgust, the US invasion of Iraq induced a regional death spiral and inspired new terrorist networks of the kind that the war was ostensibly fought to vanquish.”

Jeremy Scahill is a cofounding editor and senior investigative reporter at the investigative news site The Intercept and is the author of the best-selling Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army (2008) and Dirty Wars: The World Is a Battlefield (2013).

Guad’s Work

About a dozen of them are now set to meet with Webber and other city representatives Sept. 18 to brainstorm.

As business owners started talking, a narrative emerged pointing to myriad challenges that have curtailed pedestrian traffic—and with it, customers—in the area. Two years ago, the Sanbusco Center closed and Cost Plus World Market moved. In summer 2016, the City of Santa Fe raised meter parking rates from $1 to $2 for the first hour. Then, last spring, construction began on Sanbusco by New Mexico School for the Arts, which plans to open its new campus in fall 2019. That construction further strangled parking as well as both vehicular and walking traffic from the busy Railyard area to the main stretch of Guadalupe. While the Railyard area booms with traffic and events, streets just a few blocks over are quiet.

“It’s become extremely inaccessible,” Nardi says. “If you come down here, like right now, 11 am on a Tuesday or 3 on a

t first, Christian Nardi assumed she was alone when business started flagging two years ago.

Owner of Bee Hive, an independent children’s bookstore on Montezuma Avenue, Nardi will have run her store for seven years this November. She also hosts story times and book clubs, and works with public school teachers and librarians to provide not just a store but a community resource.

“As an independent kids bookstore, it was easy to think that it’s my store, my model, what I’m doing,” Nardi says. “I was kind of struggling with this on my own, doing everything I could do fight the downturn.”

This summer, she says, “it has been the quietest it’s ever been. … Saturdays are cut in half in terms of sales.”

So when Nardi saw Santa Fe Mayor Alan Webber at a July MIX Santa Fe event, she approached him. “I just said, I’m really struggling, it’s downtown Santa Fe, it’s Main Street and it’s … ghost-town quiet.”

She proposed to Webber a block party to create more energy. She says the mayor was open to the idea and suggested Nardi reach out to other businesses to gauge interest.

That’s when she learned she wasn’t alone—her neighbors were struggling too.

Thursday, it’s quiet. There’s nobody walking around. I think all of these factors—no shopping, no parking, no pride, no love, no energy—has just made such an impact on this neighborhood.”

Linda Doria, owner of The Beat Goes On, located in the Guadalupe Center, says her 20-year-old consignment clothing business remains solid, which she attributes partially to having designated parking and to her longtime destination shopper clientele. But she has tracked, through written surveys with customers, a 30 percent downtick in walk-in traffic during the busy times of year.

“That, to me, is a pretty strong indication that pedestrian traffic has decreased,” she says. One of the ideas Doria plans to propose to the city is creating signage to emphasize the neighborhood. “I don’t know what the answers are,” she says, “but we need to raise our voices as a group of business owners and say, ‘Hey, we’re here, we’re part of the Railyard, we’re a vibrant

Foot traffic in the retail distirct along Guadalupe Street has been suffering of late. Christian Nardi, owner of Bee Hive bookstore, organized a group to meet with the mayor about it.

part of the City of Santa Fe in terms of shopping and galleries and restaurants, and we need to be recognized.”

Barry Secular, co-owner of Cowgirl BBQ on Guadalupe Street, which recently celebrated its 25th anniversary, says right now the business “has the least amount of foot traffic that I can actually remember.”

In addition to the parking woes, Secular also points to the city’s Santa Fe Pick-Up shuttle, which ferries passengers from the Rail Runner Railyard station to various spots around town, such as the Plaza, museums and Canyon Road.

“They created a jitney van that picks up people right on Montezuma [Avenue] before they’ve even set foot into the neighborhood, and then whisks them out of the neighborhood,” he says.

All the businesses specifically point to daytime as when the neighborhood is suffering. Marja Martin, owner of the popular one-year-old dinner restaurant Paloma on Guadalupe Avenue, says this became particularly noticeable when she tried to launch a weekend brunch.

“We had a gorgeous sexy delicious brunch on Saturdays and Sundays and we couldn’t fill it,” she says. “We thought there would be street traffic … people walking by.”

Regina Wheeler, the city’s new Public Works Department director, says she sees some relief coming in both plans for increased parking areas for the Railyard and a new self-serve pay system at all city lots, along with an app that allows people to check meters on their phones and reload them.

New life is on the way when NMSA opens in 2019, followed by the New Mexico Museum of Art’s Vladem Contemporary on Montezuma Avenue in 2020. For Nardi and others, that’s positive. But they also need to survive in the interim.

“This neighborhood is in transition,” she says. “The shopping emptied out in preparation for the next phase of this neighborhood, and the next phase is very long in coming.”

WAS DEBBIE RIGHT? Debbie Jaramillo became mayor 24 years ago on a populist platform—and a warning about Santa Fe’s future B Y M AT T G R U B S mattgrubs@sfreporter.com

ebbie Jaramillo might have done more for Santa Fe than it’s ever done for her.

As if to prove it, Santa Fe’s first and only woman mayor arrives to a morning-long conversation at the Red Enchilada restaurant on a recent Saturday with a still-glossy State of the City review from 1996: “You can keep it,” she says. “I have several copies.”

Over the course of the next two hours, though, it becomes apparent that her case for service to the city she loved, were she to make it in a more formal fashion, is made up of more than aspirational mayoral rhetoric. Her term from 1994 to 1998 was peppered with the kind of warnings that had a populist ring to them, but she was an active mayor who pushed an aggressive agenda of fair housing, community services and higher wages.

yard, the Santa Fe Business Incubator, El Museo Cultural, the city’s inclusionary zoning rules for affordable housing—all have roots in her administration.

The city’s growing divide, whether it’s classified by income or ethnicity, was something she warned against. The housing market, which had reached its peak during her term only to crash and rebound a short time later, today too easily excludes the kinds of people who were raised here but can no longer afford to live in Santa Fe. Those conditions also apply to the newcomers who work in the city’s service industry, or as teachers or nurses or government workers; the people who didn’t grow up here, but love it nonetheless.

Jaramillo’s lone term was marked not only by her vision, but by her personality. She doesn’t suffer fools, yet, to some, appeared to go out of her way to find them. She won a plurality of votes in 1994 by appealing to Anglos as well as Hispanics, but her opponents wondered

openly if she would rather the white folks find somewhere else to live. The electorate seemed to abide her choice of her brother as city manager because he’d been hired by the previous mayor, Sam Pick. But when she chose her brother-in-law as police chief, it dealt a serious blow to her reelection hopes.

Then, there was her mouth.

Of Peso Chavez, her main opponent in the 1994 contest: “He said, ‘I’ve had white people say they’re gonna leave if she gets elected.’ I said, ‘Oh, bite me. Shut up.’”

Of developers who opposed an affordable-home requirement: “Jesus, you want to build 40 houses and we’re only asking for two [to be affordable]? Give me a fucking break.”

The years haven’t tempered her a whole lot, nor have they softened the feelings of some toward Jaramillo. Her portrait has been missing at City Hall’s wall of mayors for years.

There’s not even a space where it used to be. It’s as if Santa Fe would prefer to forget.

This year has been especially hard for her. In May, she lost her husband of 43 years, Mike, to a sudden illness. Her megawatt smile doesn’t flash as readily as in those old newspaper photos. Her astounding

mane of dark hair is no longer as primped. She’s been taking care of her son’s twin 8-yearolds and it’s getting her through what’s been a tough summer.

Talking about Mike’s death three months earlier brings tears.

But she’s still “Debs,” as Mike called her, and once she launches into an idea that Santa Fe should try or a program of hers that the city abandoned, the fire returns. She has plenty to say about how Santa Fe has weathered two decades since her term, but she’s done with politics.

“I still vote. I don’t know why,” she says. “I try not to keep up with things.”

In fact, Debbie Jaramillo—champion of old Santa Fe, of tradition, of returning the city to the people—doesn’t particularly want to live here anymore.

The city she was once so proud to lead has missed too many opportunities to unite itself, she says, or to keep it an affordable place to live and a decent place to make a living and raise generations of future Santafesinos. While unsuccessful, Ron Trujillo’s run for mayor had echoes of Jaramillo’s campaign. And you can hear her priorities in the wait-a-minute interjections of Renee Villarreal or the what-about-theSouthside reminders of Roman Abeyta and Chris Rivera at City Council meetings.

The city’s only female mayor signed her State of the City letter in 1996 with “Adelante unidos”—forward together. But two years later, after a contentious term, voters chose to move on without her.

Now, as Santa Fe wrestles with many of the same questions it asked 25 years ago when it elected a mayor, it has to consider an uncomfortable answer: Debbie Jaramillo might have been right.

JUNE 26, 1996 (She starts talking without being asked a question.)

Debbie Jaramillo: I try not to keep up with things. Mike used to be the one who’d tell me, ‘Debs, there’s this in the paper.’ … The town is really changing.

I used to feel like, ‘All that hard work and it went nowhere.’

That’d be my bottom line.

SFR: You really think so?

DJ: You know, there were some things of mine that are still around. But they weren’t expanded on. For instance, housing. That’s all we concen-

that people didn’t want to hear.

Larry Delgado, who became mayor after me, was more of a statesman. He was more calm and such. … I think people believed that everything that we had brought to ’98 would continue. But it didn’t.

I read something—it may have been one of our articles in the archives—in ‘98 that said that he ran on a lot of the same issues that you did.

Right. He was there as a councilor. And I used to say that he was running on everything I

stood for and did. I don’t know how blunt I was back then, but I doubted that it would continue like we had for four years.

One good example is the Railyards. … The town came up with a plan. If I remember correctly, I think it changed a lot. … We kept the hotels out. We kept anything that would be tourist-oriented out of there.

Except there’s too many galleries! [laughs] That wasn’t part of the plan. It was supposed to have affordable housing, a performing arts center. What else did they want? I think there’s

… People appreciated that I concentrated on those who lived here, not those who wanted to live here. And I think we’re back to those who want to live here.

trated on, was affordability.

And I’m not so sure that’s the case anymore. I mean, we got Homewise and maybe the Housing Trust, so we got something going there.

(We pause to order. She has a Coke and the American breakfast, red chile on the side.)

But I think that once I left, there wasn’t the champion of the poor anymore, or the ones that needed the help the most.

So, slowly but surely, at least from my perspective [of ] not having kept up with every single thing, it went back to what it was when I went in. ... [We used to tell people,] ‘You have a long road ahead and we’re going to have to work hard to change where we’re at.’ And we did. ... I had to put up with, for lack of a better term, being a mouth. I had to fight for everything. I had to speak up in ways

live/work space ... but it was all focused on the community.

And I don’t quite see the whole yard that way.

Do you go to events down there?

I’ve gone in years past. I used to like to eat at that restaurant that closed.

March 2, 1994 Despite trailing by 12 points in a poll just two days before the election, Jaramillo wins an upset victory over Peso Chavez in a crowded field.

Flying Star?

Yeah. I used to like to eat there even though it was expensive, because what isn’t in this town? ... But as far as anything else ... if there’s anything that maybe the kids might enjoy, that’s as far as I go. I go to the Violet Crown. I missed the grand opening but Ike [Pino] and his wife told me that they had at least given me kudos for the fact that they were able to get in there. I said, ‘Oooh!’

Two years into Jaramillo’s term, Peso Chavez solidifies City Council opposition and work at City Hall bogs down.

Well, there’s a street sort of named after you, right?

Yeah. Alcaldesa. To my understanding, someone wanted to name it Jaramillo Way. And one of the councilors [she won’t go on the record with which one] said no and spearheaded the no-I-don’t-wanther-name-on-there [effort]. ...

But I mean, I’ve been the only woman mayor and until there’s another, that means me.

Did Santa Fe become the town that you thought it would or that you were afraid it would?

Yeah, definitely it did. Back in the day, I was considered antitourism or anti-tourist because I used to say you can’t put all our eggs in one basket. Tourism is fine. We thrive on it. But we also gotta do other things economically, too, so people here can have good jobs.

(Our food arrives. The side of red chile is liberally applied to the American breakfast.)

I mean, service industry jobs were what they were—and still are, probably. I thought we had to concentrate on much more than that. And so, all of a sudden I was anti-tourist because I was for diversity in the economy.

Do you feel like, looking at Santa Fe now versus when you were in office, that the city is as divided, less divided, more divided racially, economically— take your pick?

I think more divided. It was very unpopular in the day, but obviously it was heard by people who cared. But I ran on the ethnic and economic divide of Santa Fe and how important it was to bring it back to the com-

munity we all remembered, which was a mixed community.

Back then, you had the Southside where all the trailer parks were, you had the east side for the people with money, and then the west side was slowly becoming gentrified. I pointed all these things out and said this is not right, it is not good for the community, we have to start figuring out how to diversify, make it work.

For the last five years, I don’t even want to be here.

Matter of fact, Mike and I used to talk about it all the time. He would say, ‘Yeah, well I built this house and I wanna be here until I die.’ And I said, ‘All right. I just want you to know, though, that if I can’t stand it once you’re gone, I’m out of here.’ And I feel that way now.

I ask myself, ‘What is there for me here?’ And I don’t feel there’s anything. And I don’t know how many people who’ve been here for a long time feel that way. … People appreciated that I concentrated on those who lived here, not those who wanted to live here. And I think we’re back to those who want to live here.

Do you still vote?

I still vote. I don’t know why, but I do.

(She won’t go on the record, though, with her mayoral pick.)

What do you think about how they’re doing or what they’re focusing on? The current mayor talks a lot about “one Santa Fe.” Everybody was for affordable housing and economic development and job diversity.

You know, the list was always there. The difference between me and them and the ones that CONTINUED ON PAGE 15

Jaramillo’s unconventional portrait (below) was taken off City Hall’s wall of mayors years ago. There’s no longer even a space for her photo.

Mayor Javier Gonzales is also missing.

have run since me is that I did something about it. I actually created programs and homes and jobs.

The businesses incubator is me again. The first one.

I know it’s expanded since then. ...

But I think the only reason it’s still around is because of the people who were running it, not because the mayors were so into it like I was. … And I think since my time, people have been more pro-business, like

before me, than not. Not that I was anti-business. I just wish they always would have contributed more to the community.

You said the same thing about developers when you pushed a measure to force them to include affordable homes in their projects.

We did that Housing Opportunity Program, the HOP. They called it bribery, or there was a word.

Extortion?

Extortion. That’s the word.

And they wanted to take on the city over it. And I said, ‘Jesus, you want to build 40 houses and we’re only asking for two [to be affordable]? Give me a fucking break.’ I would really give them a hard time. And most of them did [come around]. ... That’s what we did with Tierra Contenta. ... We had the land, it was a joint effort.

No one entity can do it alone and still provide for a diverse group of people.

Is it time to try another real estate transfer tax?

It won’t happen. Not in today’s world here. I don’t see it. I mean, they’re making money. You’ve gotta do that when they think that maybe it would serve a good purpose. From what I can tell, everything is all about the real estate business being pretty good right now. So, I don’t care what the threshold would be. I don’t think they could find one that the real estate community would support. … I wouldn’t even try it. And I don’t think Webber’s the type, either. I could be wrong, but I don’t think so.

The city’s first and only alcaldesa.

The longtime District 4 councilor’s run for mayor last year struck many of the populist tones that Jaramillo sounded in 1994. Trujillo played Don Diego de Vargas in the Entrada during the first year of Jaramillo’s term.

On her legacy: “Mayor Jaramillo has had a huge impact in this community.

I definitely believe Debbie understood the challenges facing people here in Santa Fe. She was passionate about it. Love or hate, sometimes, the way anybody does things.

You have to have that respect, because Debbie did and still does care about this community, cares about the people, cares about what happens in this community.”

On the “Hispanics first” criticism of him and Jaramillo: “Did I say Hispanic?

No, I said local. And what is local? What if I said people who are here 24/7, living here, giving to this community, putting towards this community. That’s who I talked about. I never said Hispanics, I never said Anglos.

People right away, they perceive that. … To me, that’s a sad way of looking at it.”

PATTI BUSHEE

Jaramillo appointed the city councilor to fill the remainder of her term when she won the mayoral election in 1994. The two eventually clashed, and Jaramillo notoriously called her a “bimbo.”

On her legacy: “I think she got more done than all of the mayors [since] combined, in her four-year term. Now, how she went about it wasn’t always pretty and I didn’t always agree with that. But the Railyard had great foresight. It was going to be a very extreme development. I think it’s turned out great. Affordable housing— she put it to the top of the list and it stayed up there. You still have to chip away at that problem, it’s a constant thing, but yeah, affordable housing was a big issue that Debbie brought to the forefront.”

On her political style: “I think of that time as maybe—you know, it was a little dramatic at times—but it was certainly the most active period of my 22 years of service.

She was not a placeholder.

And perhaps she knew that she would not get reelected, and she did battle. … I had friends joke that they’d pop their popcorn and then they’d switch their TV between Ellen’s show and City Council, because they just didn’t know what was going to come out of Debbie’s mouth. … But I wouldn’t say you could survive doing that with that kind of force for too long. It was a difficult time. Personalities were always clashing.”

When was the last time you chatted up a city cop?

A city cop? I’m going to say it was Sgt. Patty. [City Councilor] Signe Lindell was helping me get a patrol for [Mike’s] funeral. … He was a very nice officer and he was very helpful. But that is the last time in many years that I ever spoke with a city officer.

As for the sheriffs? Those fuckers gave me a ticket the day of Mike’s funeral, because I had left without putting on a seatbelt and they caught me. … How were they to know where I was coming from? But that was the last encounter with the sheriffs. And I said, ‘Ah, okay. Nothing’s changed.’ …

I heard that one time you went to something at the Plaza … and you parked in a spot

and said, ‘I’m just going to be a minute, I have to make a proclamation.’ And you came back and you had a ticket and somebody had called the photographer from The New Mexican … and it was in the paper the next day.

Right. I was all over that cop.

I said, ‘I can’t believe you. I’m here on official business. You really have to do this?’ ‘Well, you parked in a no parking zone.’ ‘I said, ‘Ah, you know what?’ And I walked away from it.

But better than that, you’ll love this one. I can’t remember the year, but when Mother Teresa died it was front page news, but like, on the side.

The headline? [It] was ‘Mayor Jaramillo Parks in a Loading Zone’ ... I parked to drop something off. … I told the reporter ... I made him believe that I was in a restaurant, so I said I was loading my stomach. … But I said, ‘I can’t believe you guys. I can’t believe that was the headline. Really? Mother Teresa died, for Christ’s sake.’

(By 1998, Jaramillo’s son Angelo was preparing his mother for what looked like certain defeat if she ran for mayor again. She was at odds with the council, various factions at City Hall and, still, the police department.)

[By the end of my term] the cops were after me. They were stopping my sons for not coming to a complete stop at stop signs. They were harassing the shit out of my sons. They were harassing me. A sheriff once stopped me because I was going 25 miles in a 30 mile speed

UPAYA.ORG/PROGRAMS/

Debbie Jaramillo’s rise to power was both surprising and significant in the Southwest and beyond. As her campaign gained momentum, University of New Mexico professors Christine Sierra and Sylvia Rodriguez hatched a plan to document it. They partnered with television crews from KNME (now known as New Mexico PBS) and got Jaramillo to agree to let them cover her closely. The resulting hour-long documentary, This Town is Not For Sale, first aired in 1999.

It’s still available online at newmexicopbs.org. Most of the video and notes from the documentary are archived at the University of New Mexico’s Center for Southwest Research.

Sierra, now a professor emerita of political science at UNM, remembers Jaramillo’s winning campaign as a critical moment, and her stunning upset as an indication that her campaign issues of affordable housing, community space and water scarcity were legitimate public concerns.

“To what extent those have been addressed and addressed successfully, I can’t assess. But I can say her election was a critical juncture.”

On her agenda: “Besides the public policy issues, I would also underscore that Debbie represented a part of Santa Fe that felt marginalized politically and somewhat economically. So, she was not representing real estate and tourism, but rather long-term Hispanic residents as well as the folks who were more working class and lowincome people. As you might recall, our video even followed her walking neighborhoods that were either the trailer parks she talked about, the mobile homes that had sprouted and increased on the outskirts of Santa Fe because people could not afford to live closer in to the city. The economic inequality was becoming more and more apparent, and she spoke to those who were more marginalized in that realm.”

What were you wrong about?

Someone asked me years ago if there was anything I regretted. ... You know, there isn’t. I think what was accomplished during my time was good enough to be carried on as little or a lot as it was. And I think I would say a lot. I’m not giving the administrations the credit, I’m giving the good people who were running these programs the credit.

Jaramillo still has her devotees around town, such as the people in this house on Cerro Gordo Road.

How do you go against motherhood and apple pie?

I believe that’s what I stood for. Obviously I had people who didn’t like the taste of the apple pie. [laughs] I don’t regret it, though. I really don’t. To this day, people still come up and say thank you or, how do they put it? ‘Thank you, I have a house to live in.’

Twenty-what years later? They remember.

The picture of you at City Hall...

It was there … I don’t even know if there’s a space for it?

On governing: “I think she wanted to broaden the participation of the Santa Fe community in designing their future. But she also brought to the forefront economic inequality as seen through the ‘runaway development,’ in her words, which meant Santa Fe promoted itself, as she put it, as a playground for the rich, and not really attend to questions of water scarcity, the lack of affordable housing and questioning the extent to which tourist dollars could be used to promote the interests of the city as opposed to private interests. And so she was really important in voicing those concerns ... and did try to follow up in her governing years.”

On her legacy: “Her election marked the new aggressive exposure of public policy issues that had not been dealt with, and put those in the forefront for city concerns and the city agenda ... which had implications for the state and region. ... That’s where who’s in leadership can really determine what gets pushed aside and what gets dealt with and how it gets dealt with. These issues continue to be important not only for Santa Fe, but for Albuquerque, Las Cruces and rural parts of the state.”

zone. I said, Jesus Christ. I couldn’t do anything right.

And somebody, I don’t know who, put the IRS and the FBI to look into me.

And I said, ‘What? I make 15,000 fucking dollars a year. Why don’t you go look at Phil Griego, who made millions while he was in office. But all this was coming down big time in ‘97. Mike says, ‘Well, if you wanna do it, try.’

So when it didn’t happen, I said, ‘I think Angelo was right. It wasn’t meant to be.’ And what happened to the city was meant to be.

It went back to how it was before I got in, though I think a little worse.

February 12, 1997 Jaramillo famously railed against a Santa Fe that she felt catered to those who “just got off the bus.”

They just shuffled the rest of the pictures down.

See? It’s like I didn’t exist. That’s what it reminds me of. Like they didn’t want me to exist in the history books. So maybe that’s why I just couldn’t muster up the strength to do another one. I know I told David [Coss] one time, ‘When and if I do bring you something, you better nail that fucker down to where it’s going to

take a backhoe to get it off the wall.’

Politicians don’t talk like you did—or do—anymore. … Or they’ll refuse to sit down with us and want questions emailed and all that stuff. [She laughs] Why do you think that is?

Fear. They want to be reelected. They don’t trust that the media might repeat whatever they say exactly. So if that’s the case, they think it will hurt them and they won’t get reelected. See, I will always know that in great part, that’s why I didn’t get [reelected]. People did tell me, ‘You have a sailor’s mouth.

You’re too forward. You’re too blunt.’ I want to tell them, ‘You prefer the ones that tell you what you want to hear and then don’t do anything?’

LaBorwit says the museum is in the process of transforming the pop-up space where these events occur the first Sunday of each month (when admission is free for New Mexico residents) into a museum maker space. Patrons will start seeing the transformation over the next three to six months.

“We’re really excited about the possibilities and collaborating with other people in science fields here in New Mexico statewide,” LaBorwit says. (Email her at melanie.laborwit@state.nm.us to get involved or volunteer.)

While this month’s activity focused on future train technology, LaBorwit says the programs are also aimed at highlighting what she describes as “heritage technology.”

“A lot of people use the word technology and they think about future technologies and they’re thinking about computerized things or 3D printing,” she says. “The truth is there’s lots of different kinds of technologies that have made life possible.” Using windmills as an example, she says, “here in New Mexico, [they] have been used to pump water out of extraordinarily dry ground, which made ranching in the desert possible and transformed our landscape … were important technologies that helped us become who we are.”

WHITE PEOPLE BE DISAPPEARIN’ As James Baldwin famously said, “American history is longer, larger, more various, more beautiful and more terrible than anything anyone has ever said about it.” The larger story of colonialism in America is indeed well known, particularly in this part of the country, but its smaller mysteries continue to baffle and intrigue scores of historians.

One of which is the story of dozens of settlers who, in the late 1500s, established a colony off the coast of Virginia and then disappeared without a trace—except for a single word, CROATOAN, carved into a tree. Author Andrew Lawler explores this word, as well as what the enduring stories of colonists still mean to Americans’ perceptions of gender, race and “outsiders.” (Charlotte Jusinski)

MUSIC FRI/7 LIBERTARIAN They don’t hand out New Mexico Music Awards to just anyone, but Ron Crowder—who took home the title of Best Song in 2018 with the song “Liberty” from his new self-produced EP of the same name—isn’t just anyone. A bit of a session guy, Crowder’s played with some of our local greats, but now he’s struck out on his own with a nifty mix of rock and soul, and things are looking bright.

Crowder’s even reintroduced the smokin’ rock ‘n’ roll sax to the world and has been playing live a whole hell of a lot in support of his new tunes, but he’s finally releasing the new EP. Catch him live this week at Tumbleroot and pick up Liberty. You’re also bound to catch feelings. (Alex De Vore) Ron Crowder CD Release Party: 8 pm Friday Sept. 7. Free.

Like Smack Green Chile Cheeseburger Smackdown makes its triumphant annual return There are few dishes more representative of New Mexico than the green chile cheeseburger. It, like the Land of Enchantment, is a glorious collaboration of cultures, working together to create a spicy but flavorful sandwich of which there is no equal. Celebrating this rich culinary heritage is the annual Green Chile Cheeseburger Smackdown, during which finalist chefs representing restaurants from all across New Mexico compete for two prestigious awards: People’s Choice and the Reigning Chomp. The attendees (vis-à-vis, you), who are allowed to sample each of these tasty, tasty burgers, have a say in the People’s Choice, whereas a panel of highly trained judges use their acute taste buds to declare the Reigning Chomp.

“It is a blast. It is a great opportunity to sample New Mexico’s quintessential food, the green chile cheeseburger, from some truly stellar chefs,” says Stephanie Cameron from Edible Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Taos, both a magazine and curators of some of the finest foods in New Mexico, who are responsible for the event.

One of these competitors is chef Milton Villarrubia III, representing Second Street Brewery and the winner of People’s Choice in 2016.

“What’s more New Mexican than a green chile cheeseburger?” he queries.

“It’s a great way to celebrate the community.”

Second Street Brewery’s entry is an all-natural patty topped with green chile, American cheese and two organic blue corn enchiladas. What made this mad chef top a green chile cheeseburger with enchiladas, you ask?

“I thought about what made Northern New Mexico Northern New Mexico.

I thought about the enchilada,” he says.

“I’m from New Orleans, and we like our food messy. ‘El Patron’ is continuing that tradition of messy-delicious all up in your face.”

This burger is but one of the many available, and others include Albuquerque’s Más Tapas y Vino’s Green Chile Honey Bomb, which lays the green chile on top of brisket, short rib and honey-glazed bacon, and El Farol’s Hamburguesa Santa Fe with bacon and avocado.

The Green Chile Cheeseburger Smackdown is destined to be one of the biggest, most delicious food events of the season. This is one of the few chances you get to explore the varying tastes and textures of a local dish without spending copious amounts of time and money.

MUSIC Tone Ranger emerges from the mystic deserts of self-discovery.

A

s Alex Simon tells it, it took years for him to realize the musical persona of Tone Ranger—a lifetime, even, until the right-placeright-time stars aligned here in Santa Fe. Seeing him for the first time performing his self-described “cosmic lap steel” music, fused seamlessly with buoyant and crisp house beats, I would have guessed he’d been doing it since birth.

Another possibility was that he simply appeared after the storm clouds rolled on from the desert with his music one day, a mythical origin story for sounds whose creator’s intention and execution seem so well met as to be identical forces.

The truth is more mundane but no less interesting. Simon worked in recording and composition in California for years before finding his way to Santa Fe. During that time he developed a vast toolkit of recording and arrangement techniques, but eventually wanderlust set in and Simon took an opportunity for farm work on Navajo Nation land. A few months into his time there, the Dakota Access Pipeline protests began, and he left for Standing Rock.

There he helped set up recording equipment in a tent erected to preserve Indigenous peoples’ stories, protests and songs.

“That was really my induction to the desert, via Navajo Nation,” Simon says.

Tone on the Range Alex Simon’s mythical journey into dance and the ecstatic desert

BY LUKE HENLEY |

“I was immersed in an Indigenous community out there and then, with Standing Rock, deeper immersion. I came to Santa Fe with that intention of working with Native communities and just trying to understand more about Native America today.”

This immersion and recording work also led to his Sovereign Sounds project, which facilitates recording projects in the Indigenous communities of the Southwest. He operates primarily in New Mexico but also with the Tohono O’odham in Southern Arizona’s Sonoran Desert. The project’s goal is to provide tools and opportunities for members of these communities to tell stories, start podcasts, record music and more. And the benefits were easy to see.

“I thought that if I gave people the tools to record … [they] could record in any setting—we just need to get materials there because there are so many

a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

functions for [Sovereign Sounds],” he explains. “They can record modern music, they can record language, they can record cultural stories, they can record songs that could die with an elder.”

Simon then traveled to Santa Fe, making his home in a desert he says has enchanted him since age 7. In just a year and a half, he has focused his musical persona into a performing workhorse and released a mission statement of an eponymous EP in August on San Francisco-based Jumpsuit Records.

While Simon is more than comfortable using hand percussion, vocal elements and his ever-present lap steel guitar to create ambient music, the new EP is firmly planted in a dance setting. Part of this is due to the performance side of Tone Ranger, an attempt to engage with audiences on a celebratory level. After years of a serious-minded compositional

perspective, Simon discovered a desire to make dance music.

“I want to be that guy, you know, putting the hands in the air and everything,” Simon says. “Having people dance to my music was actually the most satisfied I could feel as a performer, because they’re embodying the music.”

The music comes from a place of integrity, but that doesn’t restrict its ability to be fun as well. “Fun is a good thing!”

Simon exclaims.

Tone Ranger’s self-titled EP is available digitally, via streaming services and in CD form at shows. Its blend of natural instrumentation and crystal-water beats is well worth your time and money.

Perhaps worth even more of your time and money are his live performances, which are joyous and inviting affairs for fans of electronic and Western music alike. Simon’s deft playing of the lap steel while managing live-mixing and his laptop proves a beguiling demonstration of virtuosity in multiple fields. Find him at both the Jumpsuit Family Gathering festival in Taos on Thursday and Saturday Sept. 6 and 8, and in a more intimate setting locally at Ghost this week.

COURTESY JOLYNN ULIBARRI

Local animal expert Jolynn Ulibarri is a woman on a mission. It’s one of education, safety and conservation, and one that she started as far back as she can remember.

Former groomer of Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show competitors, an evaluator for the American Kennel Club’s Canine Good Citizen certification, vet tech and owner of animal-based business Peace Pets (peacepetsluv.com), Ulibarri brings her exotic and everyday animals to schools, libraries, nursing homes, birthday parties and beyond.

(Alex De Vore) What exactly is Peace Pets?

It’s ‘Planetary Enhancement And Conservation Effort’—That’s what the word ‘PEACE’ breaks down to. Our form of shelter provides an educational platform, takes in animals and takes them all over the place. We use them with youth to decrease fear and increase a feeling of coexistence. Maybe they’ll never own it, but they’ll have more respect for it—it changes them as adults. It helps them to be less violent, more conscious.

olunteers eeded for Research Study

And how long have you been at it?

Working with animals? I’ve been at it since I was 4 years old. Later, I started volunteering at a shelter and never stopped. I got my degree in ... holistic therapy; I got my veterinary technician certification. I taught at Montclair State University in New Jersey and I worked at Turtle Back Zoo in New Jersey. For Peace Pets, we turn 10 this year, and we’re really proud of that.

Was there some defining moment in your life that made you want to work with animals?

From my earliest memories, I was fascinated by how many different species there were. I always felt like I was deeply connected and responsible somehow and like somebody had to do more. I loved people like Steve Irwin and Jane Goodall—these people who were out there giving their lives to things that were bigger than them. It was in my soul as far back as I can remember; it was a pull. And my mom wouldn’t let me have animals in my house, so I had to go elsewhere, but it gave me a giving heart. I should throw out there that schools and public youth groups get discounts. Peace Pets even does discounts if you donate food. And we want to offer up that we’re an open door. We can’t take every dog and cat, there are restrictions against that, but we’ll never turn away an exotic animal and we won’t ask questions—we offer that to anyone before they put a non-native animal in an environment. Please come to us first. And be conscious about what you’re getting. Some of these animals live a long time.

S FR E P O RTE R .CO M /A RTS

BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

P

hotographer and gallerist Pilar Law had to move last winter, but it has mostly been a good change. Previously, she lived in and ran her Edition One Gallery from an adorable house on Canyon Road, but when the owners—who swore they’d never move back to Santa Fe—moved back to Santa Fe, she was forced to head up the road a bit. You’ll now find Edition One just behind Geronimo in a 200-year-old house that resembles a church, but reportedly never was one. Law says she’s making the best of it.

“The new space is breathtaking,” she says. Not bad for an artist who only moved back to Santa Fe three years ago.

Law had been living in California and Kansas—but, when it came down to it, she says, her mother and siblings called Santa Fe home, and she wanted to be nearer to them.

Law, of course, cut her teeth in the photo world by simply being around it.

Her mother is Lisa Law, celebrated and iconic rock photographer and owner of Silver, that hippie bus you’ll see parading around town for special events.

But though the younger Law had a natural talent for photography and an enviable level of access to it, she says she spent a number of years away from the camera. She chose instead to work in the world of rock music, managing bands or working as a production assistant for Bill Graham in San Francisco.

The jewel of her resume, however, could be a spot on the production team for Woodstock 1999.

By 2006, however, Pilar was back in the world of photography, working for labs and darkrooms and kicking off her own series of photos dubbed Soft, wherein still life and landscape subjects were shot out of focus, creating softer lines and impressionist, painting-like compositions.

“I think I just needed something soft in my life at that time; I was so used to seeing things in sharp focus that I wanted to blur the lines,” she says. “But I also saw the writing on the wall and I knew people would need to convert from analog to digital.”

It’s easy to forget now, what with that incredibly nice camera that probably lives in your pocket—but in 2006, cell phone photography was in its early days. Still, Law says, amateur shooters were looking more and more for labs that would print their phone shots.

This trend has of course died down some—when was the last time you printed your phone’s photos?—and Law predicts a renaissance of sorts for good old-fashioned photography.

“The ubiquity of photography was diluting the artistry of photography,” she says. “I’ve wanted people to remember a photograph is a print on paper that people can still appreciate, collect and value as an art form.”

And that’s the underlying ethos of Edition One. Law has hosted numerous shows there over the last three years, most notably selections from Oregon-based juried photography show

BOSS HOGG

Law is particularly excited about the inclusion of Eventyr, a fantastic UK photographer who has rarely, if ever, shown in the United States, and who was around and shooting in the early days of Black Sabbath.

There’s something to be said for the eras being represented in the show, not least of which is some smarmy diatribe about how pop music will never— no, never—be more electric or alive or groundbreaking as it once was, but the history alive in the photos we’ve seen is palpable. Law herself is like an encyclopedia on all of them, from the story behind the controversial 1969 Blind Faith album cover to the real deal when it comes to Loverboy’s Get Lucky.

Hail, Hail Rock ‘n’ Roll would be worth a perusal just for its visuals alone, but do yourselves a favor and find out exactly who Pilar Law is, sidle up to her at the opening and ask her, politely: “What can you tell me about this photo?”

Chaka Khan and Michael Jackson in one show?

Daaaaaaamn.

but a lad, Pigpen of the Grateful Dead was still alive and well-ish and Devo was in its infancy. Last year’s show hosted six photographers; this year’s boasts eight.

“I’m going to say we might have 50 photographs,” Law says, conducting calculations in her head. “Yeah. 50, I think.”

Shooters this year include heavy-hitters of rock photography, including Glen Wexler, Bob Seidemann, Yvette Roman, Henry Diltz, William Coupon and, of course, Lisa Law and Santa Fe transplant (and first-ever official Rolling Stone photographer) Baron Wolman.

SFRE PORTE R .CO M /A RTS /ACTI N G O UT

ACTING OUT Faith, Trust and Adobe Dust or the 99th year (no really), the Santa Fe Playhouse presents its Fiesta Melodrama. Since the spring, a team of local theater-folk writers have been cataloging all the dumb local drama that’s gone on around Santa Fe and found ways to cast it humorously, while also mining national politics and universal truths about our weird little city. The resulting show is always campy and perhaps rough around the edges— and this year is no exception, though some standout performances and ballsy jabs made it particularly fun.

In this year’s story, out-of-town investor Dick Phillip-Lay (Evan Galpert) comes to the humble, backwards hamlet of Santa Fe to start his new megacorporation, aiming to “bring true culture and civilization to what could be a great town.” (Booooo, hisssssss.) He teams up with an artist named Mia Wulf (an extra-spooky Tristan Van Cleave) and his (their?) collective of humanoid creatures who glow under blacklights.

There’s a robot involved.

But something seems fishy, and investigative reporter Calamity Daniels (a heroic and self-deprecating Christina Comer) seeks to get to the bottom of Dick Phil-Lay’s economic pursuits. “This spat-wearing so-and-so is brainwashing the locals, and I have to do something about it!” she exclaims.

With the help of local go-getter La Reina Lorena Larrañaga (Roxanne Tapia) and her comfort burritos that you can bring into any restaurant in town, she investigates Phil-Lay and Mia Wulf’s evil plot to break Santa Fe apart and—gasp!— cancel Fiestas. (“You can’t just ignore

revisionist history!” Lorena pleads in defense of the event.)

Between mercifully short song parodies (the requisite “Despacito,” “La Macarena” and Marty Robbins’ “El Paso” all make appearances) accompanied by energetic pianist Mitchell Gustin, the cast offered plenty of eye-rolly one-liners clearly thrown in just for “look we talked about it”’s sake mixed in with stuff that was really legitimately funny. Standout performances came from a particularly fun Galpert, who has just the right facial expressions/facial hair for a dapper

villain, as well as Eeyore-esque deadpan delivery of relentless horse puns from Horsé Martinez, played by Phil Johnson.

(In the audition call for this show, the character description for Horsé simply said: “A horse.”)

I couldn’t get enough of Katie Johnson’s Molly Coddle, a finishing-school rich-white-lady suffragette interloper whose family “owns many small businesses off the sqwuuuuuuuuh.” Her perfect Dowager Countess-style voice modulation, stupid pronunciation and often-blank facial expression never grew forced or tired. I could have watched her all evening.

I’d be remiss not to mention Felix Cordova’s Buck Starr, who shifts effortlessly between a Curly Howard-style New York city slicker (“I’m headed to Arizona, where I hear there’s a fortune to be made in the private prison industry!” he says in the first scene) and his alter ego, an overthe-top Good Ol’ Boy police chief who sports a plate-sized hunk of turquoise: Al Hurricane’s Mystical Bolo Tie. A funny performance also came from Scott Plunket as Don Coyote Webber, the ultra-dopey mayor, but we kind of shrugged at the character in general—our actual Don Alcalde Alan Webber hasn’t really done anything of note since he was elected in May, and to make fun of him and/or his office to such a degree seems a bit premature. Next time, writers, wait till we have a scandal or a weird quote or something.

This production was co-directed by Artistic Director Vaughn Irving and SFPH board member Andy Primm, and

THEATER

was probably a bit like herding cats— though it should be noted that the cats look awesome, as the duo also coordinated a spate of fantastic costumes.

Lastly, it seemed important for SFR to cover this particular Melo because, without a doubt, the heroine is based on a journalist from our publication; Calamity Daniels talks about having reported on a “plywood hut” being rented out as living quarters and about prison labor, both of which SFR covered this year. (To be fair, the Melodrama has made some pretty cutting remarks about SFR in previous years, so it’s not like we’re a darling or anything.)

Also notable is the quite intense vitriol spewed forth on social media from Meow Wolf supporters when, amidst a constant stream of glowing press, SFR had the nerve to publish two toothlessly neutral stories about the mega-collective (one of which asked the standard philosophical question, “But is it art?” and one of which said that a festival was fun, if perhaps sparsely attended). So to have Mia Wulf in cahoots with the villain that Calamity fights raised our eyebrows.

To be made fun of or even turned into a villain in a Melo, however, is perhaps the ultimate form of flattery in town. “It just means they’re a part of Santa Fe, and they’re a part of the community,” one of the anonymous writers tells SFR. “Everybody who gets to that point gets reamed in the Melo. And frankly, we’re not that mean. I think our jokes are kind-hearted enough while still being revealing enough.” And of course, it’s not usually SFR’s style to use an anonymous source, but the Melo has been uncredited for 99 years—who are we to break tradition?

Particularly chuckle-worthy was when Calamity entered Mia Wulf’s glowing den to be entertained by the characters therein.

“You guys really are great!” she exclaims. “Is there anything you can’t do?”

A character pipes up from the back: “Take a joke.”

After opening weekend, SFR asked Meow Wolf Director of Marketing John Feins if the company had a statement about this year’s Melodrama. He said they don’t, and that all employees are currently too busy.

Editor’s note: About an hour before press deadline, we learned the Melo has officially sold out. Hang out outside the theater for your chance, maybe?

FOOD

Main Squeeze A humble juice bar food truck provides a fresh take on chia pudding, green juice and saving the planet

BY MARY FRANCIS CHEESEMAN a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

T

he newest addition to our town’s food truck scene is the Santa Fe Juice Bar, a cheerfully painted white and hot-pink trailer offering a beachy, breezy menu of fresh-squeezed juices and smoothies. An envelope thanking the business for its donations to the Santa Fe Dreamer’s Project is taped up next to an “Ecobrick.it” sticker from Upcycle Santa Fe. “They pick up my plastics to be made into building materials, or sometimes I drop them off,” owner Abel Martinez explains of his business’ recycling practices.

He pulls at his plastic glove and gestures to the stacks of to-go cups and spoons. “People don’t think about it, but restaurants generate a lot of waste. We’re doing our best to cut down and help out.”

It’s a sweet sentiment, and a natural one given that Martinez is committed to living a low-impact lifestyle that allows him the freedom to spend as much time outside as possible. A native of Guadalajara, Mexico, Martinez grew up in the laid-back beach town of Sayulita, a small tourist hotspot north of Puerto Vallarta and known to be a low-key surfer hangout. Between teaching surfing lessons and hosting private tours of the beach, he worked a management position in the longtime local institution, the Sayulita Café, and later owned a small coffee shop called Aroma.

There he met his future wife, Santa Fean Kimberly Lopez, and together they moved to Nashville, Tennessee, where he continued his culinary pursuits at the popular farm-to-table restaurant Adele’s

Nashville. He’d later sign on to help open celebrity chef Jonathan Waxman’s restaurant Bajo Sexto Taco, located inside the Country Music Hall of Fame and named for a stringed instrument commonly used by mariachi bands. It was here that Martinez developed a flair for using local, seasonal ingredients while Lopez worked to become a nurse practitioner. A few years later the couple moved to Lopez’ hometown of Santa Fe, where a combined passion for both the culinary and health worlds bore fruit—their juice bar trailer opened last June.

Using the fresh fruit stands common to the streets of Sayulita as inspiration, Santa Fe Juice Bar strives to offer seasonal and colorful concoctions, ranging from the bright orange-tinged Rise and Shine ($7.95), a strongly citrus-driven mix of orange, turmeric, lemon, carrot, ginger and honey, to the Viva La Greens ($7.95), a green lemonade of apple, cucumber, spinach and kale that is decidedly veggie-forward and not at all sweet. The real treat, though, are the smoothie bowls for $8.95, which can also come in traditional smoothie form for $7.50. The bowl is a delicious delivery system for blended fresh fruits, as well as more substantial nutritious additions, such as granola, shreds of coconut, seed blends and chia pudding—a mix of chia suspended in coconut milk, designed to effectively unlock its superfood-esque properties.

I got the El Super Bueno, a mélange of strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, banana, pineapple, mango, kale, spinach and almond milk. It came topped with the aforementioned garnishes, and also goji berries, granola, honey,

sliced strawberries, figs and kiwis. It tasted fresh and fruity, but the hidden greens prevent it from becoming overly sweet, even with honey drizzled on top. The granola and coconut provided satisfying texture and crunch, and Martinez supplied the breezy conversation while I sat on the bright pink bench outside the trailer’s window. He says he designed his bowls for those who enjoy an active lifestyle but still want to eat healthy.

“I used to surf every day,” he says.

“Nowadays, I love waking up really early and hiking in the mountains, although a lot of the time I’m here now. Many of my customers, they’re the same way.”

Martinez says he’ll change up his winter hours only slightly to 8:30 am, an hour later than usual, and that he’s worried the demand for smoothies and fresh juice won’t be as strong in the off-season.

“If we could find a warehouse space or a market where we could be inside, that

might be better,” he says. “In Guadalajara they have these mercados, these marketplaces that are full of vendors who sell everything, meats and fish and street food and fresh fruits. Something like that would be perfect for us in Santa Fe.” Previously located at the corner of Paseo de Peralta and Guadalupe Street, the truck is temporarily closed for relocation and will reopen Sept. 10 at the corner of Paseo de Peralta and Old Santa Fe Trail.

Martinez plans to make even stronger motions away from using plastics by offering the bowls and smoothies in glass containers. Every little bit helps, and hopefully Santa Fe Juice Bar will continue to provide a healthy, refreshing respite from the demands of modern urban living, in more ways than one.

SANTA FE JUICE BAR Paseo de Peralta and Old Santa Fe Trail, 490-5157; reopens Monday Sept. 10.

+ DIVERSE CAST

There’s nothing in this story that is easy to watch.

Even during the flashbacks of hushed moments of intimacy, we’re cringing because of the rest of the context. The only thing that keeps our minds on track is the thought that adults in New Mexico are no longer allowed to subject their kids to what goes on in The Miseducation of Cameron Post.

The state Legislature outlawed so-called “conversion therapy” in 2017, but it was perfectly legal in the state of Pennsylvania in 1993, the setting for this story. Cameron, played by Chloë Grace Moretz (Carrie, 2013), lands in the God’s Promise boarding school after a prom night that ends with shocking revelations to her highschool boyfriend. All the coded language and stunning agendas emerge at once, and Cameron herself seems paralyzed, numbed, unable to figure out whether she wants to or can be cured of

her gayness, or whether she should plot an escape.

The sparse dialog from the teen at first makes the biting words of the adults even sharper.

“You,” says creepy psychologist Dr. Marsh, “are at an age when you are especially vulnerable to evil.” Jennifer Ehle (Fifty Shades of Grey) makes us believe she’s willing to go to any length to break the kids, and the basic message here is that “there is no such thing as homosexuality,” and teens with same-sex attraction are acting out some sort of deficiency in their lives that can be fixed with more Bible and fewer orgasms.

But don’t get us wrong—it’s not an even slightly funny take. The teens predictably suffer dam-

age by this philosophy and by severed relationships with their parents. Their characters are deep in the omission of details—and just what we don’t know also seems to offer a plethora of clues.

We manage to cheer a little inside when it’s clear Cameron won’t take the bait, and we celebrate the way like minds can still find each other in the guarded friendships she forms.

+ INTERESTING SETTING - EVERYTHING ELSE, PARTICULARLY THE (LACK OF) PLOT

A self-described horror movie, The Little Stranger simply doesn’t have the stuff to match up to even the most mediocre adherents of the genre. Horror tends to rely on suspense, mystery and empathy for the characters to scare viewers—or, at the very least, to interest them. This film strays from these core concepts, however, instead focusing on irrelevant, halfbaked characters and occurrences that do little to further the plot.

Domhnall Gleeson (Star Wars) plays Doctor Faraday, a country healer who treats a fallen-from-grace aristocratic family of three in the English countryside. He’s supposed to be the protagonist, more or less, but winds up exceedingly bland and lacking any semblance of character development. Like most movies of this sort, there is a forced love interest named Caroline (Ruth Wilson), a member of the family and the only likable character.

But she and Faraday have absolutely no chemistry—he barely manages to summon a smirk when interacting with her. Caroline is sharp and friendly, though, despite her brother Roderick (Will Poulter), a creepy burn victim

dynamic of class-conflict; I personally didn’t find it particularly compelling or to have any interesting insights. The terror that the director may have been attempting to convey—how social class can make people feel claustrophobic—felt unexplored.

“Oh my God,” says the lady in the background. “I just realized we’re in The Little Stranger.”

+ PERFECT TIMING FOR THIS FILM - MAYBE ONE TOO MANY MESS HALL BRAWLS

Best of luck to any director on the planet who’d try and topple the newest effort from German filmmaker Robert Schwentke (RED, The Time Traveler’s Wife) as the year’s most horrifying, beautiful examination of humanity’s inhumanity.

The Captain, presented in Schwentke’s native tongue with English subtitles, traces the true story of Willi Herold (Max Hubacher) through the final days of World War II, as the Reich is cratering in on itself. Herold, like so many others, has deserted the German army.

As the film opens, he runs, then staggers from his still-Nazi pursuers. We are immediately drawn to Herold, mesmerized by his plight as CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

The Captain is chillingly appropriate for right now, but also just one hell of a movie.

he escapes, then comes across a Nazi captain’s uniform in a broken-down military vehicle. He is terrified, alone, exhausted and hungry.

His transformation unfolds with blinding speed. In black and white, Schwentke develops Herold into quite the imposter as he dons the Nazi garb: He will now play the part of a German captain hunting deserters. Schwentke’s eye for clear shots and perfect light/shadow balance makes what should scare us all as nearly too watchable. Herold assembles a team of other deserters to comb the bombed out countryside, where they find, then kill more deserters.

Hubacher’s performance drives the film’s message, relevant now as ever: People fall in line to the cold machinery of authoritarianism so, so easily. By mid-film, Herold has taken over a concentration camp and ordered the killings of hundreds of German soldiers who had deserted.

What’s so different and compelling about The Captain is its in-your-face brutality as shown, viscerally as hell, from the German perspective.

This is not some dry, removed recounting of the dangers of fascism. Instead, Schwentke manages to show us in the space of two incredibly short hours that one needn’t be smart, stupid, calculating or subservient to fall for the allure and terror of fascism at the person-to-person, relationship level.

When it’s self-preservation on the table, anyone could become part of Herold’s murderous crew—in 1945 Germany or in 2018 Anytown, USA. (Jeff Proctor) Center for Contemporary Arts, R, 120 min.

THE HAPPYTIME MURDERS

4

+ A FEW MILD LAUGHS - BORING AND NOT WELL-CRAFTED

Jim Henson’s son Brian Henson attempts to expand his father’s wildly popular puppet empire into the adult arena with The Happytime Murders, a sort of alt version of the Muppet world mashed up with 1988’s groundbreaking Who Framed Roger Rabbit? but without any of the smart humor, strong characters or solid writing.

In a bizarre version of modern-day Los Angeles, puppets live alongside humans but are treated like second-class citizens. Years prior, a popular puppet-led sitcom wowed TV viewers, but now its principal cast members are being killed off one by one, forcing former cop-turned-hard-boiled private investigator Phil Phillips (a puppet) back into service alongside his ex-partner Edwards (Melissa McCarthy), who is the catalyst for legislation preventing puppets from joining the force.

A past wherein the puppets’ performative talents were appreciated is hinted at, but most of the non-human characters introduced are pornographers, addicts, criminals and/or foulmouthed sex fiends—cue crude jokes and absurd violence. It seems like Henson and company overshot their desire to distance themselves from a family-friendly image by a mile.

After the initial novelty of adult-themed puppets wears off, The Happytime Murders mostly seems like a quick cash-in based on 20- and 30-somethings’ Muppet nostalgia. Dialogue feels improvisational at best or, at worst, like

actors were working with a hastily slappedtogether script. Worse yet, the movie is almost never funny despite appearances from comedic champions like Maya Rudolph and Joel McHale, and the mystery is utterly lacking in intrigue, twists and turns—you’ll probably figure it out quickly. And even if you don’t, it’s unlikely you’ll care.

Which is sad, because there’s always been a certain cheese factor to Henson films that is forgivable (and even enjoyable) when presented in the right context. Maybe magic skips a generation or something, but The Happytime Murders does not live up to its hype or its pedigree. Maybe skip it, unless you have plans to get real stoned first. (Alex De Vore) Regal, Violet Crown, R, 91 min.

+ VERY PRETTY; WU IS THE BEST - CHECKS OFF ALL THE STAID ROM-COM BOXES

It’s been well over 20 years since a mainstream American-produced film featured an entirely Asian cast (the last one was The Joy Luck Club in 1993, by the way, and Asians still remain the least-represented ethnicity in movies)—but with the release of the explosively popular Crazy Rich Asians from Now You See Me 2 director John M Chu, this alarming issue may change. Or at least be addressed better by Hollywood? Fingers crossed.

Representation matters—even if the underlying plot of the Kevin Kwan book-turned-movie follows a relatively formulaic plotline. Constance Wu (Fresh Off the Boat) is Rachel Chu, a young NYU econ professor who has fallen for the uber-charming Nick Young, heir to bazillions of family dollars, but who hasn’t told Rachel that he’s rich despite

their year-long relationship—an interesting factoid she only discovers once the pair heads to Nick’s homeland of Singapore for a wedding. A seriously fancy-ass wedding.

Cue mild drama (she forgives him for not mentioning the rich thing pretty quickly) and jokes about how things sure are different over there.

Wu asserts her leading-lady position brilliantly, a comedic actor with a knack for sublime timing and who has proven her chops on television for years. Here she portrays a cool and up-for-anything type who bravely fields Young family drama from Nick’s mother (the talented and graceful Michelle Yeoh of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon fame), vindictive, jealous exes and petty rich types; get this woman in more projects immediately, someone.

Elsewhere, B-plot elements feel shoehorned in at best, particularly the crumbling marriage of Nick’s sister Astrid (Gemma Chan) and a wildly pointless role portrayed by Silicon Valley’s Jimmy O Yang. Henry Golding (who you probably don’t know yet) is serviceable as the handsome and apparently magnetic Nick (he hangs out at the YMCA and borrows Rachel’s Netflix password so, like, he’s not one of those rich people). As is the case with most characters, we get a primer in his deal within the film’s early minutes, though nobody outside of Rachel really develops beyond their baseball card stats. Community vet Ken Jeong is, as almost always, underused, even if his daughter (played by rapper Akwafina) does provide some of the most organically funny moments of the film. Nico Santos (of NBC’s Superstore) feels misused as well, a very funny actor who gets only a few lines that mostly just reaffirm that his character is gay.

But it’s fun to see sweeping aerial shots of Singapore, especially when used in conjunction with the over-the-top lifestyle of the Young family.

Fireworks happen, y’all.

And then eventually we’re fed a rom-com trope about Rachel and Nick’s undying love having nothing to do with money or status or making overbearing family members happy.

The sorta-kinda-twist, however, lies in the stark reality of drastically differing social stations. This feels perhaps more true-to-life than plenty of the genre’s other examples, but still—wouldn’t you know it—love conquers all.

Thank goodness, then, for the fantastic music found throughout Crazy Rich Asians that generally comes in the form of hit American or British songs covered in Chinese. This really sets a tone that makes non-Asian viewers feel welcome but still out of our element, a seemingly small yet clever touch in a film that is definitely aiming for fun rather than high art. Hopefully, though, it won’t be another two decades before Asian filmmakers and actors get another shot at the big screen of this scope. Frankly, it shouldn’t have to be a novelCONTINUED ON PAGE 43

BLACKKKLANSMAN

10

+ IMPORTANT HISTORY LESSON; BRILLIANT PERFORMANCES

- LITERALLY NOTHING BAD TO SAY

Spike Lee’s newest is a film that should make you break down sobbing—dor the past, the present, and for the potential future, given this low point in human history. BlacKkKlansman so vividly and powerfully captures our attention, taking us right up to the brink of hope before abruptly pulling us back down to reality; where racism is very much alive and well, where former KKK grand wizard David Duke can appear publicly, without fear, where protesters are run down for daring to point out that Black Lives Matter and where non-white Americans struggle daily for their very humanity.

America first? Fuck you.

John David Washington (Ballers) is Ron Stallworth, the real-life Colorado Springs detective who, in 1979, infiltrated the ranks of a local KKK chapter by simply making phone calls to local white supremacists and even David Duke himself (Topher Grace). Jewish officer Phillip Zimmerman (played here by Girls and Star Wars alum Adam Driver) poses as Stallworth for in-person goings on, and the small investigative team uncovers and thwarts an assassination attempt on a black student activist (Laura Harrier of Spiderman: Homecoming). It’s a fascinating bit of American history and the actual Stallworth even penned a book about it (Black Klansman: A Memoir)—though Lee’s version is dramaticized. Before now, Stallworth’s story was ultimately relegated to the trivia pile for most Americans. Hopefully this film changes that.

Washington is electric as Stallworth, his lifelong desire to be a cop at odds with his burgeoning radicalism. Can change occur from the inside? Maybe so. Harrier wows as well, a strong black woman with a penchant for subtle vulnerability and a streak of well-earned rage. Even the white guys (some of ’em, anyhow) start to get it as best they can, but the racism rampant on the streets of Colorado Springs and within Stallworth’s department itself is shockingly casual— conditioned, maybe, but no less ugly. That casual hate grows bolder throughout the film, starting at something about how the Klan “is non-violent” and culminating in cross-burning and explosives among intense, heartbreaking, powerfully delivered lessons in black history. Corey Hawkins as Kwame Ture alone is worth watching.

But it’s not all heavy doom and gloom.

There is pain, shock and awe, yes, but artfully chosen moments of levity punctuate the more challenging elements and the editing and pacing are damn near perfect. And we should never look away, even if BlacKkKlansman proves hard to watch—especially for white people, and rightly so. If the events of Charlottesville or the similar re-rise of no-longer-afraid white supremacists haven’t clued you in to how the fight must continue, perhaps pop culture will. Either way, there’s a lot to learn and a lot to consider here thanks to Lee’s masterful filmmaking and the real Stallworth’s incredible achievements. (ADV) Regal, Violet Crown, R, 135 min.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - FALLOUT

MOVIES

Cruise) past come back to haunt him as a cache of plutonium is lost on his watch, and it’s up to the Impossible Missions Force (ugh) to combat a group of terrorists called The Apostles in retrieving it. Fans of the series will appreciate the gunplay, fistfights, mask-wearing and daredevil stunts provided by Cruise, anyone else will find a serviceable action flick that works OK for late summer.

Cruise is loose—hydrated and unstoppable, remarkable for a 56-year-old actor. Henry Cavill (Man From UNCLE), meanwhile, looks as if he’s been sleeping in his car for the last few weeks.

He’s so puffy, he can’t fully put his arms down.

Ving Rhames is surprisingly soulful as Luther Stickell, however, and his long-standing relationship with Cruise’s Ethan Hunt takes the forefront, further strengthening their 23-year bond.

Elsewhere, Rebecca Ferguson (Life) has the most spectacular character entrance in the film, and although she is underused, she is easily the biggest scene-stealer. Simon Pegg further proves he belongs in the series with some of the best scenes coming from his familiarity with every single recurring character. Alec Baldwin shows up, too, basically playing himself, but Angela Bassett capably counters his forgiving-father archetype with a stern mother character as head of the CIA. Sean Harris, the stereotypical villain, growls and makes threats. An honorable mention does go to True Detective alum Michelle Monaghan as it was particularly nice to see her come back to the series.

Christopher McQuarrie returns as well as series writer/director, following up his success with the fifth installment, Rogue Nation. McQuarrie’s directing style is competent enough as far as action scenes go, but between the too-frequent double crosses and an excess of cheesy lines (21 by this author’s rough count), his writing skills feel weak. The sets and cinematography simultaneously scream “pretty” and “fake.”

Still, as we approach late summer, there are far worse choices. Fallout is as silly as it comes, but at least it isn’t a disappointment. (Matthew K Gutierrez) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 147 min.

This adorable kitten was adopted by an older person and has more energy than her owner could handle. TEMPERAMENT: HONEY BEE is very outgoing and playful and should be adopted into a home with another young cat to play with. Her colored patches are actually ‘torbie’ which is a mix of tortoiseshell and tabby.

AGE: born approx.

4/7/18.

MICKEE MOUSE and his siblings were rescued at two weeks old and raised by a foster mom. TEMPERAMENT: MICKEE MOUSE got his name from his black and white tuxedo markings and his small size.

MICKEE MOUSE is the baby of the litter. He seeks out the adult females in the house to snuggle up to & knead upon. He would be a perfect companion for an affectionate big sister.

AGE: born approx. 5/1/18.

MIND BODY SPIRIT

Rob Brezsny

Week of September 5th

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Now is an excellent time to feel and explore and understand and even appreciate your sadness. To get you in the mood, here’s a list of sadnesses from novelist Jonathan Safran Foer: sadness of the could-have-been; sadness of being misunderstood; sadness of having too many options; sadness of being smart; sadness of awkward conversations; sadness of feeling the need to create beautiful things; sadness of going unnoticed; sadness of domesticated birds; sadness of arousal being an unordinary physical state; sadness of wanting sadness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): When Warsan Shire was a child, she immigrated to the UK with her Somalian parents. Now she’s a renowned poet who writes vividly about refugees, immigrants, and other marginalized people. To provide support and inspiration for the part of you that feels like an exile or fugitive or displaced person, and in accordance with current astrological omens, I offer you two quotes by Shire. 1. “I belong deeply to myself.” 2. “Document the moments you feel most in love with yourself—what you’re wearing, who you’re around, what you’re doing. Recreate and repeat.”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Do you have any feral qualities lurking deep down inside you? Have you ever felt a mad yearning to communicate using howls and yips instead of words? When you’re alone, do you sometimes dispense with your utensils and scoop the food off your plate with your fingers? Have you dreamed of running through a damp meadow under the full moon for the sheer ecstasy of it? Do you on occasion experience such strong erotic urges that you feel like you could weave your body and soul together with the color green or the sound of a rain-soaked river or the moon rising over the hills? I ask these questions, Taurus, because now is an excellent time to draw on the instinctual wisdom of your feral qualities.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Once in a while came a moment when everything seemed to have something to say to you.” So says a character in Alice Munro’s short story “Jakarta.” Now I’m using that message as the key theme of your horoscope. Why? Because you’re at the peak of your ability to be reached, to be touched, to be communicated with. You’re willing to be keenly receptive. You’re strong enough to be deeply influenced. Is it because you’re so firmly anchored in your understanding and acceptance of who you are?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “Close some doors today,” writes novelist Paulo Coelho. “Not because of pride, incapacity, or arrogance, but simply because they lead you nowhere.” I endorse his advice for your use, Gemini. In my astrological opinion, you’ll be wise to practice the rough but fine art of saying NO. It’s time for you to make crisp decisions about where you belong and where you don’t; about where your future fulfillment is likely to thrive and where it won’t; about which relationships deserve your sage intimacy and which tend to push you in the direction of mediocrity.

CANCERIAN (June 21-July 22): To casual observers you may seem to be an amorphous hodgepodge, or a simmering mess of semi-interesting confusion, or an amiable dabbler headed in too many directions at once. But in my opinion, casual observers would be wrong in that assessment. What’s closer to the symbolic truth about you is an image described by poet Carolyn Forché: grapes that are ripening in the fog. Here’s another image that resonates with your current state: sea turtle eggs gestating beneath the sand on a misty ocean beach. One further metaphor for you: the bright yellow flowers of the evening primrose plant, which only bloom at night.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In 1928, novelist Virginia Woolf wrote a letter to her friend Saxon Sidney Turner. “I am reading six books at once, the only way of reading,” she confided, “since one book is only a single unaccompanied note, and to get the full sound, one needs ten others at the same time.” My usual inclination is to counsel you Sagittarians to focus on one or two important matters rather than on a multitude of semi-important matters. But in accordance with current astrological omens, I’m departing from tradition to suggest you adopt Woolf’s approach to books as your approach to everything. Your life in the coming weeks should be less like an acoustic ballad and more like a symphony for 35 instruments.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Not many goats can climb trees, but there are daredevils in Morocco that do. They go in quest of the delicious olive-like berries that grow on argan trees. The branches on which they perch may be 30 feet off the ground. I’m naming them as your power creature for the coming weeks. I think you’re ready to ascend higher in search of goodies. You have the soulful agility necessary to transcend your previous level of accomplishment.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): From 49-45 BC, civil war wracked the Roman Republic. Julius Caesar led forces representing the common people against armies fighting for the aristocracy’s interests. In 45 BC, Caesar brought a contingent of soldiers to Roman territory in North Africa, intent on launching a campaign against the enemy. As the general disembarked from his ship, LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I want to make sure that the groove you’re in doesn’t devolve into a rut. So I’ll ask you he accidentally slipped and fell. Thinking fast, he unexpected questions to spur your imagination in unpre- exclaimed, “Africa, I have tight told of you!” and clasped the ground, thus implying he had lowered himself on dictable directions. Ready? 1. How would you describe the untapped riches in the shadowy part of your person- purpose in a ritual gesture of conquest. In this way, he ality? 2. Is there a rare object you’d like to own because it converted an apparent bad omen into a positive one.

And indeed, he won the ensuing battle, which was the would foster your feeling that the world has magic and turning point that led to ultimate victory and the war’s miracles? 3. Imagine the perfect party you’d love to attend and how it might change your life for the better. 4. end. That’s good role modeling for you right now.

What bird most reminds you of yourself? 5. What’s your PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Below are sweet words I’ve most evocative and inspiring taboo daydream? 6. In your borrowed from poets I love. I invite you to use them to past, were there ever experiences that made you cry for communicate with anyone who is primed to become more joy in ways that felt almost orgasmic? How might you lyrically intimate with you. The time is right for you to attract or induce a catharsis like that sometime soon? reach out! 1. “You look like a sea of gems.” —Qahar Aasi 2.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): By volume, the Amazon is the “I love you with what in me is unfinished.” —Robert Bly 3.

“Yours is the light by which my spirit’s born.” —E. E. largest river in the world. But where does it originate?
