EDITOR’S NOTE WET, SCARY WEEKEND During the weekend, Hurricane Irma (which spanned at least 70,000 square miles and reached speeds of 185 mph) made landfall on the coast of Florida after ravaging areas of the Caribbean and moving on to the Bahamas and Cuba—all while relief efforts following the devastation Hurricane Harvey wreaked on Texas are still in full swing. Also over the weekend, the Andres Muschiettidirected film adaptation of Stephen King’s epic novel It brought in more than $123 million, making it the biggest opening weekend in cinema history for an R-rated horror movie. Apart from an unintentionally (I hope) tone-deaf sentence in a lauded film magazine about how Irma’s threat to Florida and Georgia could cause a drop in weekend It attendance, the two subjects couldn’t be more disparate. Irma and Harvey delivered real-life terror, the after-effects of which people will be dealing with for years (Katrina still seems fresh in our minds), while It provided a couple hours of well-crafted escapism. Though we’ll be keeping an eye on both Irma and It, rather than add yet another take on either (OK, other than what you’ve just read), in this issue we did what we do best and kept it close to home. On Page 5, Senior Staff Writer Harrison Berry looks at a new partnership between the City of Boise and Interfaith Sanctuary, which provides jobs in the city parks and recreation department for members of our homeless community. On Page 18, Staff Writer Lex Nelson investigates how Rolling Tomato, a local food recovery service, has turned more than a ton of soon-to-be food waste into healthy meals for underserved communities in the area. And even though he’s far away, News Editor/Film Fanatic George Prentice is bringing it home. He’s in Canada at the Toronto International Film Festival giving us us a sneak peek of some incredible premieres.

A partnership between the City of Boise and Interfaith Sanctuary is helping homeless people meet professional goals

DACA recipient Ruben Estrada spoke at the Sept. 9 rally at the Idaho Statehouse.

PRESIDENT TRUMP’S MOVE ON DACA LEAVES IDAHOANS IN LIMBO

HARRISON BERRY Kneeling down behind a bush in Platt Gardens—a cluster of flowers, foliage and water features sandwiched between the Boise Depot and a grassy vista overlooking Capitol Boulevard—Scott Austin was busy pulling weeds. Between the rustling sound of the shrubs as he pulled and the hum of a nearby riding lawnmower, Austin’s voice was barely audible as he told the story of how, before joining a Boise Parks and Recreation work crew at the beginning of May, he hadn’t seen a paycheck in almost a year. Austin felt a stint of homelessness had made him invisible to potential employers. “Just because you’re homeless doesn’t mean you don’t have wants and needs and aspirations like other people,” he said. Austin’s fortunes are changing. His work in Platt Gardens is part of a pilot program, the Interfaith Sanctuary Work Program with Boise Parks and Recreation, that employs sanctuary guests on Parks and Rec seasonal work crews for $9.25 per hour. Austin and others in the program do everything from weeding and pruning to lawn mowing. The aim is to build up resumes and savings accounts, and ultimately to help people experiencing homelessness find permanent jobs, transportation and housing. The partnership, which started May 1 and will last until Parks and Rec phases out seasonal employees Tuesday, Oct. 31, circumvents the deep challenges faced by people seeking employment after periods of not having a fixed address or getting paychecks. Interfaith Sanctuary has helped participants in the program obtain Social Security numbers, identification and bank accounts, thereby fulfilling City of Boise hiring requirements. “It was just the right match. Parks and Rec crew are so nice, it works so well, and our guests really like being in the parks,” said Interfaith Sanctuary Shelter Director Jodi Peterson. Austin said when the seasonal job winds to a close at the end of October, he will seek out other, similar work, and wouldn’t mind returning to BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Scott Austin is part of a pilot program between Interfaith Sanctuary and Boise Parks and Recreation that puts guests at the shelter to work.

Parks and Rec in the spring. “I don’t foresee myself being unemployed very long after this program,” Austin said. Another participant, Andrew Rule, leaned on a rake that looked like a twig in his strong hands. He joined the pilot project since mid-August, and before that, it had been “a couple months” since his own last paycheck. A Boise native, Rule held down a number of jobs, but was unable to save money. Low wages, lack of security, a limited set of work skills and other factors meant he couldn’t make ends meet, and for the last 2 ½ years he has stayed at Interfaith Sanctuary. Seasonal work has been stimulating for him. “Around every corner there’s something to do,” he said. “I was stuck in a loop, and I was, like, ‘Enough!’” Rule has learned essentials of Idaho horticulture, and the steady pay, he said, is helping him “get a head start.” “I just want my life back,” Rule said. “My own place, transportation, steady employment.” The program started with a single crew working 30 hours per week, but participants showed their supervisors they were motivated, and their shifts were soon extended. Several participants dropped out but additional Interfaith guests rushed to fill the gaps. Currently there are two crews with five workers each, with a handful of other potential participants in reserve. Several people in the program have already secured housing or transportation of their own. One of the crew chiefs managing employees from the shelter is Andrea Wurtz, a 10-year veteran of Parks and Rec with three years experience managing seasonal laborers. She has joined with her current crop of workers on standard fare like

weeding and pruning, but also post-flood Greenbelt repair and maintenance. Interfaith Sanctuary has kept her ranks filled with people “happy, willing and able to work.” “We show them the overall outcome. They need very little instruction to complete the task,” she said. In addition to a crew chief, every batch of workers in the program has a case manager, who serves as a kind of intermediary between participants and Parks and Rec. According to Parks and Rec Director Doug Holloway, the case managers provide much-needed structure and pre-employment services for participants. “They have a very structured program in place,” he said. “They ask their guests, ‘If you want to be part of the work program, first thing you have to do is become part of their case management program, including how to get yourself set up in order to get a job.’” On Wurtz’s crew, the case manager is John Davis, who ensures participants get to and from the job site and have access to one provided meal per day. He knows each of the workers personally, and is on hand to satisfy ancillary needs and help with conflict resolution. Davis has been with the Interfaith Sanctuary/Parks and Rec program since it began, and said rekindling faith between people who have experienced homelessness and employers can be a challenge, but one that’s worthwhile to overcome. “[Homeless people] don’t have a lot of trust in employers or systems,” he said. “We can rebuild a little bit of trust on their side. … If we can offer them a little opportunity, we could really make their lives better.”

Rixa Rivera Sandoval was 1 ½ years old when her parents brought her from Guadalajara, Mexico, to the United States. Growing up, Sandoval wanted to be a police officer, and she distinctly remembers talking about her career plans with her mother. “I remember Mom looking at me and being, ‘Mija, I don’t want to tell you this, but I think you can’t. We’re not here the legal way,” she said. Sandoval is a Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipient—one of approximately 800,000 nationwide and 3,100 in Idaho. Under the program, which was created by an Obama-era executive order, she has been able to attend school, obtain a driver’s license and hold a job—free from the threat of deportation. She cannot, however, receive benefits through social programs like Social Security. Sandoval was one of several DACA recipients to speak before approximately 1,000 demonstrators at the Idaho State Capitol on Sept. 9. The rally was to show support for people like Sandoval and protest President Donald Trump’s rescinding the program Sept. 5, passing the buck to Congress. No new enrollees will be allowed, and the deadline for current recipients to re-apply is Thursday, Oct. 5. Sandoval plans to attend Boise State University to study material sciences and biomedical engineering, but is taking a year off to save money working for Wells Fargo. She is ineligible for federally backed loans to finance her education. “It’s hard being a DACA student and undocumented immigrant, a Latina and a woman in Idaho,” Sandoval said. Ruben Estrada, who came to the U.S. from Guanajuato, Mexico, soon after his seventh birthday, learned about his undocumented status when he thought about getting his driver’s license. DACA allowed him to get his license and study at College of Western Idaho. He plans to transfer to Boise State to major in business. “I just hope I can prepare myself to be successful,” he said. He has little optimism, however, about the future of the program. “It would be better to have immigration reform, but how it is with Donald Trump in office, I don’t see anything happening,” Estrada said. — Harrison Berry BOISEweekly | SEPTEMBER 13–19, 2017 | 5

CAMPFIRE THEATRE FESTIVAL

HYDE PARK STREET FAIR

According to the International Rescue Committee, it costs $85 to apply for a Green Card and $265 to apply for American citizenship. Many aspiring Americans can’t afford the price—and that’s where Paper Plates: A Feast for Freedom comes in. Created by the IRC, this fundraising dinner is meant to “uplift Boise’s vibrant refugee and immigrant community through international cuisine, music, art, and craftsmanship.” All of the proceeds will go toward funding Green Card and citizenship applications. Dinner is included in the ticket price, and diners can ﬁll their minds as well as their stomachs, with speakers like New Roots Director Liz Urban, Boise City Council member Lauren McLean and Boise State Refugee Alliance President Freddy Nyakulinda. 6-9 p.m., $35 (avail. online only). C.W. Penthouse at C.W. Moore Plaza, 250 S. Fifth St., 208-331-3516, paperplatesboise.com.

Boise may be home to an array of art- and literature-based events, but it’s rare to see a festival designed by and for people of the theater. Campfire Theatre Festival fills that void, offering three days of workshops, guest performances and social activities centered around the stage. Each day features performances and readings at Boise Contemporary Theater by dancers, comedians and playwrights, including Noah Diaz, Iris Dauterman, Heidi Kraay and others. There will be workshops on topics like “Creating Natural Character” and “Writing for Film.” Each night will wrap up with an afterparty at The Mode Lounge. Check online for a full schedule of events, and snag a ticket to become a storyteller in training. Friday: 4 p.m.-midnight, Saturday: 9 a.m.-midnight, Sunday: 9 a.m.-10:30 p.m., $10 individual performance/workshop pass, $50 full festival package. Boise Contemporary Theater, 854 W. Fulton St., 208-331-9224, campfiretheatrefestival.com.

For the last 37 years, Hyde Park Street Fair, the colorful explosion of North End pride that ﬁlls Camel’s Back Park, is sending summer off in style. The fair stretches across three days and will feature rows and rows of booths full of local art, crafts and food, dancing, boozy sips and more, with all of the proceeds circling back into the North End through grants and other programs. Plus, more than 20 bands—including headliners Ned Evett Glass Guitar Experience, Jeff Crosby and The Refugees, and Matt Hopper and The Roman Candles—will perform over the course of the weekend on two separate stages. If you’re in need of a dose of community spirit, kindness and positivity, make the Hyde Park Street Fair a top destination.

GOV’T MULE, SEPT. 15, KNITTING FACTORY These days, bands that sound as good live as they do in the studio are a rare phenomenon indeed. If raw, real, powerful sound has been missing in your life lately, stop by the Knitting Factory Friday, Sept. 15 for “An Evening With Gov’t Mule,” a night of live music featuring the iconic American rock band fronted by Grammywinning guitarist and singer-songwriter Warren Haynes. The band’s newest album, Revolution Come…Revolution Go (Fantasy Records, 2017), is its tenth studio release, and combines blues, rock, country, jazz and soul for a hard-hitting, introspective look at the self and current politics. The album has already been well received, hitting multiple high-ranking spots on the Billboard chart, and everyone who buys a ticket for the Friday night show will get free copy of their very own. With more than 2,000 headliner shows under its belt, Gov’t Mule knows how to kick some musical ass. —Lex Nelson

TROYBOI, SEPT. 20, KNITTING FACTORY Rather than fitting neatly into a specific genre, London-based producer Troy “TroiBoi” Henry fuses elements of house, hip-hop, rap, R&B, dance, trap and more to create a sound he dubs “my style.” TroyBoi’s mind-bending music will come to bear in Boise at the Knitting Factory on Wednesday, Sept. 20, in the first leg of a huge tour, which has the unique artist crisscrossing North America—with a few stops in Europe—behind his highly anticipated, hot-off-the-press debut album, Left Is Right (T Dot Music, 2017). Though TroyBoi is known for stellar collaborations with artists like Flosstradamus, Ekali and Nefera, Billboard writes “out of the 20 tracks on Left Is Right, only five feature guest vocalists, the big hitter coming from hip-hop legend Ice Cube on second-to-last track ‘Look At Me.’ Truly, TroyBoi’s space-age flavor is the star of the show.” Don’t miss this chance to see TroyBoi shine. —BW Staff With Daktyl, Gent & Jawns, and Meaux Green. 8 p.m., $16-$35.

A fabulous foursome emerges at Toronto International Film Festival GEORGE PRENTICE CAFILM.ORG/THEFENCER

Ask any of the actors, directors or screenwriters who brought movies to the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival about the “O” word, and you’ll get two different answers— one public and the other private—about the chance of an Oscar nomination. Publicly, they’ll dismiss any talk of an Academy Award: “That’s very kind of you to bring that up,” they’re inclined to say, “but I’m not really thinking about awards.” Ask them again privately, and the answer is much different. “Are you kidding? Have you looked at a calendar?” they’ll ask, aghast. For most of us, this is simply the month of September. Step through the Hollywood looking glass, however, and you will find it’s also “award season.” The actors, directors and screenwriters don’t have their hearts set on winning a trophy, though. They want an Oscar or Golden Globe nomination. Between the time Golden Globe nominations are announced in mid-December (they’re handed out in January) and Oscars are awarded in March, nearly three months will pass, and in that time span, the true Hollywood currency is based on whether someone has landed a nod for the Best Picture, Actor, Actress, Director or Screenplay awards. The buildup to those nominations has officially begun—and the award clock is ticking loudly in Toronto. The slate at TIFF this year hasn’t really culled the herd of potential nominees, though. Instead, the field has been widened because the quality of films is top drawer—however, four stand out above the rest and pass the test of real cinematic greatness, something no other medium can duplicate. Think, for example, of what made Citizen Kane, An American in Paris, The Apartment or Raiders of the Lost Ark so special. Movies like these are created through a magical alchemy of BOISE WEEKLY.COM

storytelling and technology that sets flimmaking apart from theater, music or literature. More importantly, the experience requires a big screen to frame its largesse, literally and figuratively. In those rare instances when that magic jumps from the screen and pierces the dark, you feel at one with the film, if only for the moment before you hear other moviegoers around you laughing, crying or gasping—just like you. In those flashes of time, going to the movies is like no other collective experience and, to this day, remains a wonderment. My favorite film so far at TIFF is also the most captivating movie I’ve seen in some time: The Shape of Water, a fantastical tale of spirit, compassion and dimension. When I say this is the best film yet from director Guillermo del Toro, remember this is the man who gave us the masterful Pan’s Labyrinth (2006). In his latest wizardry, del Toro conjures another stunning visual display, only to be outshone by a luminous performance by Sally Hawkins (Maudie) starring as a mute cleaning woman who discovers a subaquatic half-man, half-amphibian being held captive at a topsecret laboratory. The movie is a reminder that, like The Hunchback of Notre Dame, being a true monster has nothing to do with appearance. I was also bowled over by Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing, Missouri, from darkhumor master writer/director Martin McDonagh. The billboards mentioned in the title

become canvasses for the expression of rage by a mother (Frances McDormand) who blames the police department in her town for failing to arrest her daughter’s rapist and murderer. McDonagh’s script is barbed with visceral satire only someone as skilled as McDormand can deliver. McDormand’s performance alone is worth the trip to Ebbing, but her supporting cast is equally superb and includes Peter Dinklage, Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell. The Florida Project, a small-budget, independent film from director Sean Baker (Tangerine) is equally worthy of attention. It peels the tan off the tourist town of Orlando, Florida, by focusing on the lives of four spirited urchins, ages 6 to 8, whose dance of joyous youth is only a step away from poverty. Willem Dafoe delivers the performance of his career as a harried motel manager who is, too often, the children’s only protector. Call Me by Your Name should also be on your watchlist. This adaptation of a novel Vanity Fair called a “modern classic of gay literature” is a breakthrough and certain to win over art house audiences. Featuring a stunning performance by Armie Hammer, this magnificent film looks at identity, sexuality and the capacity to love in a respectful fashion rarely seen of late.

WINESIPPER OKTOBERFEST FESTBIER

PAYETTE BREWING $1.59-$1.89 This local festbier pours a golden amber with a decent head that collapses quickly. There’s a bit of earthiness to the cracked wheat, soft malt and fruit aromas. Lightly toasted, smooth malt dominates the palate, backed by fresh baked bread, touches of herb and peach, and just a whiff of hops. It’s a credible nod to Oktoberfest brews. SIERRA NEVADA $1.59$1.80 Each year, Sierra Nevada collaborates with a German brewery to craft a Festbier. This year it’s Brauhaus Miltenberger, a golden brew with a decent head and aromas of roasted corn, caramel and spice. Beautifully balanced in the mouth, there’s a nice hop profile, sourdough bread flavors and lightly sweet malt. What’s not to like? WEIHENSTEPHANER $2.49-$2.89 This is the real deal from a German brewery with a history dating back 1,000 years, making it the world’s oldest. This crystal clear festbier is a straw color with a nice mix of malt, grain, herb and hop aromas. The palate of bright fruit flavors, smooth malt, spice and just the right hit of hops is absolutely delicious, making this a near perfect festbier. —David Kirkpatrick 18 | SEPTEMBER 13–19, 2017 | BOISEweekly

FOOD IN (FOOD) RECOVERY

L E X N E L SON

Despite the name, Oktoberfest kicks off at noon on Saturday, Sept. 6, when the Mayor of Munich, Germany, taps the first keg. Billed as the world’s largest fair, millions attend Oktoberfest each year, washing down wurst, sauerkraut and steckerlfisch (fish on a stick) with large mugs of the local quaffable lager. You don’t have to travel to Deutschland to get a taste of the celebration, though. The spirit of the festival has traveled around the world in both German and local festbier-style brews. Check out the Oktoberfest offerings from these breweries:

With Rolling Tomato, a local entrepreneur is waging war on food waste one veggie at a time LE X NEL SON Every Saturday at 12:30 p.m., Julie D’Agostino shows up at the Boise Farmer’s Market clad almost entirely in red: a bright red T-shirt, a straw hat trimmed with red and white ribbon and a red and white striped apron with a tomato emblazoned across the front. D’Agostino dons her uniform each week before she picks up leftover produce from farmers at the market for Rolling Tomato, her fledgling food distribution and recovery business. “This way, they see me coming,” D’Agostino said with a smile. “It helps speed up the process.” As the market shuts down, D’Agostino and a small team of volunteers dart from stall to stall, collecting unsold fresh fruit, vegetables, bread and flowers that would otherwise end up in the landfill or compost pile. At every table, they’re greeted with waves and smiles. “Do you have anything for me today?” D’Agostino asks over and over. Each time, the answer is a resounding “Yes!” Quickly, her carts fill with fragrant cantaloupes, boxes of jewelgreen zucchini and multi-colored heirloom tomatoes. One weekend, she collected nearly 350 pounds of food (a record for Rolling Tomato, worth more than $1,050) in less than an hour, packing the back of her truck so full, the overflow had to be transported in another vehicle. Without Rolling Tomato, this produce would go uneaten, joining the estimated 17,000 tons of edible food tossed annually into the Ada County landfill, or the more than 6 million pounds of produce and other natural waste the new Boise Curbit program has turned into compost. With a bit of initiative, D’Agostino created a better alternative: Rolling Tomato delivers produce directly to local homeless shelters, senior centers, schools and independent living houses, putting it straight into hungry mouths. When she moved to Boise last year, D’Agostino immediately sought out a food recovery nonprofit to volunteer for, hoping to continue the work she’d done in Marin County, California, at Extra Food, a food recycling nonprofit founded in 2014. When D’Agostino couldn’t find an Extra Food equivalent, she started her own, using her background as a user

interface designer in the tech sector to keep the process streamlined for donors and recipients alike—produce generally makes it from point A to point B in 30 minutes or less. Seeking to “make [her]self useful,” D’Agostino began a process she calls “matchmaking” between market vendors and nonprofits, establishing resources (what kind of produce is available, how much, and when) and needs (what type of produce can be used, what kind of kitchen facilities are on hand, etc.) for each side. So far, she has overseen many happy marriages. Since its inception in Nov. 2016, Rolling Tomato has recovered more than a ton of fresh produce from the Boise Farmer’s Market alone. D’Agostino currently works with almost 20 market donors and six local nonprofit recipients, and both numbers are growing. For the last few months, liaising with potential donors and recipients has become a nearly full-time job, and D’Agostino has been doing freelance consulting work to pay the bills. The majority of her time working on Rolling Tomato is spent on education: filling donors and recipients in on the legal ins and outs of food recovery. “There are food laws that go into this,” she said, “There’s the Federal Bill Emerson Good Samaritan Food Donation Act, which protects the donors, and was passed in 1996 to encourage food producers and food sellers to donate their excess. That’s a piece of education that I’d like to get out there. It already exists…we’re not recreating the wheel here.” Along with illuminating these protections, D’Agostino provides donors with itemized receipts, which they can file for a tax deduction of up to 15 percent of their income. So why haven’t farms and food production companies taken the issue of donating into their

own hands? The Idaho Food Bank, which has begun doing large-scale food recovery work in recent years, says the barriers of cost and time can impede those who would otherwise be donors. “There was a time where it actually made more financial sense ... to leave [extra produce] in the field,” said IFB Public Relations Coordinator Mike Sharp, “because the amount of labor that you’re going to have to pay to pick it and load up the trucks, the trucker that you’re paying, the gasoline, the logistical measures you’ll have to take to transport, those are all considerations.” Sharp added that grants help IFB offset those costs. Like D’Agostino, IFB is always looking for help to ensure produce gets to food-insecure Idahoans, a population it says includes one out of every seven people in the state. With truckloads of fruit, vegetables and grains rolling in throughout harvest season, having volunteers ready and waiting is imperative. “In 2008, 50 percent of our food was canned. At this point, it’s 75 percent frozen and refrigerated,” said Sharp. “The 10 a.m. shift is what we call our ‘Harvest Helpers,’ it’s a shift that we’ve designed to try to get as much of that fresh produce packaged up and out of the building as quickly as possible.” Although they operate on vastly different scales, the Idaho Food Bank and Rolling Tomato share the same mission: making sure fresh, edible produce goes to those who need it, instead of going to waste. While IFB is focusing on recruiting more volunteers, D’Agostino is looking to expand Rolling Tomato’s reach beyond the farmer’s market so that she can recover food year-round.

CITIZEN LECIA BROOKS

On Charlottesville, rightwing extremist recruitment and the civil rights movement HARRISON BERRY

The Unite the Right rally swept through Charlottesville, Virginia, during the the weekend of Aug. 11-12. Ostensibly a protest against the removal of a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee from a local park, the rally opened with a torchlit parade, anti-semitic chanting and demonstrators from white nationalist and white supremacist groups, including neo-Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan, marching openly. The event was punctuated by violent clashes between them and counter-protesters, and an act of terror that left many injured and one young woman dead. Lecia Brooks knew a demonstration by white nationalists was coming, but said she was shocked at the scale and violence of what happened in Charlottesville. The outreach coordinator for the Southern Poverty Law Center and director of the Civil Rights Memorial Center in Montgomery, Alabama, Brooks has watched the shifting sands of identity politics and racial acrimony from the standpoint of a civil rights educator and diversity advocate. She offered some insight into those issues ahead of her keynote speech at the 14th annual Change Your World Celebration in Boise on Friday, Sept. 15, which benefits the Wassmuth Center for Human Rights.

What was your own reaction to those events? Even though we track it, it was still shocking in that we’ve never seen such a large contingent of white nationalists just take the streets like that, out and bold. It was frightening. We’re the ones that predicted this was coming, but it was incredible. A poll found 44 percent of African-Americans are against removing Confederate statues. What’s going on here? I think people aren’t educated about what [the statues] represented when they were erected. We think they’re tremendously valuable in museums and archives, but they don’t need to be in public spaces of honor.

What do you do at SPLC? Of late, I’ve been talking a lot about the rise in hate extremism from the far right, in particular, what’s happening on college campuses.

What are the challenges facing the civil rights movement today? I think the No. 1 challenge is voting rights and voter suppression, in particular. We were certainly alarmed by the Supreme Court ruling in 2013 that gutted the Voting Rights Act. In the aftermath we saw all of these voter ID laws pop up and some pretty bold moves to further restrict voting. This last primary election, they said I was an ‘inactive voter.’ I said, ‘Are you kidding me? I vote all the time.’ We made tremendous strides with LGBT equality, and now we see the transgender ban in the military. With the DACA decision, we feel like we’re getting hit from all sides.

What’s new about far-right extremism? There has been a concerted effort that really began last year early in the presidential campaign in terms of recruitment efforts on college campuses specifically targeting young, white college students. They get people to believe that white folks are being dispossessed. That’s been happening more online and since the campaign, they’ve been coming out of the woodwork.

What is the factor that brings diverse groups together under the banner of civil rights? This is why we saw such rapid movement in LGBT equality: Young people have grown up in a more diverse world, and they don’t see issues as segmented as older folks do. For them, the issues are really connected, and they have friends across racial groups, across sexual orientations.

What’s missing from the conversation about what happened in Charlottesville? The conversations that began in the immediate aftermath were pretty transparent and pretty honest about what they saw. There’s a focus now on, what about these far-left extremists, Antifa? The conversation seems to be more about that than the fact that over 11 white nationalist groups marched together and killed a woman.

What gives you the greatest sense of hope? The increased youth engagement, because if we look at issues globally, nothing really changes unless youth push for that change. We see it globally, and we saw it here in the modern American civil rights movement. Forty-thousand people came out after the events in Charlottesville to take a stand. It was beautiful.

PAGE BREAK $GYLFH IRU WKRVH RQ WKH YHUJH BETTER LATE THAN NEVER DEAR MINERVA, A woman who has been a co-worker and a very good friend in the past left me a happy birthday voicemail 5 ½ years ago. I never returned the call, and she lives in the same town! I’ve seen her walking down the street and just kept driving because I’m ashamed and unsure of how she’ll react. The longer I wait, the more I feel paralyzed. What do I do? Sincerely, Tardy to the Party

THE FULLY BEARDED BEARD COMB Are you a badass with a beard? If so, this beard comb may be exactly what you didn’t know you were looking for. Made from cellulose acetate, a by-product of cotton known as a “high performance thermoplastic,” and modeled after brass knuckles to ensure a comfortable ﬁt, this comb has a sleek, edgy look paired with a utilitarian design. The unique material makes the tool strong and luxuri$25 per comb, available at ous to the touch, and every comb fullybearded.com is different since no two sheets of cellulose acetate are quite the same. Fully Bearded spokesman Neil Ward said in a PRWeb news release that the comb came out of a desire to “build a premium product a lot like a good whiskey: a product made in small, handcrafted batches, with each one carefully crafted and individually inspected.” —Lex Nelson Taken by instagram user harrisonberry0725.

You are deﬁnitely holding on to this if you remember you forgot to return a phone call that long ago! While 5 ½ years is a long time to hold on to guilt for something as seemingly innocent as an unreturned phone call, I am guilty of doing the same thing. I truly think most people don’t worry about stuff like that. We all lead busy lives, and it is easy to space something like a return call. For your own piece of mind, next time you see her, just bring it up. Not only will she likely be impressed by your memory, it will be a giggleworthy icebreaker to rekindle your friendship. What if she feels shook, triggered or offended, you ask? Well, if that is her reaction, at least you no longer need to feel paralyzed. I imagine all of us have been guilty of these little faux pas at one time or another, and most adults don’t take it personally. Good luck, sweetness.

TED RALL

JEN SORENSEN

HOBO JARGON

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Two animals are pictured prominently on the Australian coat of arms: the kangaroo and the large flightless bird known as the emu. One of the reasons they were chosen is that both creatures rarely walk backward. They move forward or not at all. The founders of Australia wanted this to symbolize the nation’s pledge to never look back, to remain focused on advancing toward the future. The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to make a similar commitment, Aries. Is there a new symbol you might adopt to inspire your intention?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Love won’t exactly be free in the coming weeks, but there should be some good deals. I’m not referring to risky black-market stuff obtained in back alleys, either. I mean straightforward liaisons and intriguing intimacy at a reasonable cost. So if you’re comfortably mated, I suggest you invest in a campaign to bring more comedy and adventure into your collaborative efforts. If you’re single, wipe that lovestarved look off your face, and do some exuberant window-shopping. If you’re neither comfortably mated nor single, money may temporarily be able to buy you more happiness.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The Simpsons is an animated sitcom that will soon begin its 29th consecutive year on TV. During its run, it has told over 600 stories. The creators of another animated sitcom, South Park, once did an episode entitled “Simpsons Already Did It,” which referenced their feelings that it was hard to come up with new tales because their rival had already used so many good ones. I bring this up, Taurus, because I suspect your life story will soon be spinning out novel plots that have never before been seen, not even on The Simpsons or South Park. You could and should be the Best Storyteller of the Month.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The current state of your fate reminds me of the sweet confusion alluded to in Octavio Paz’s poem “Between Going and Staying”: “All is visible and elusive, all is near and can’t be touched.” For another clue to the raw truth of your life, I’ll quote the poet William Wordsworth. He spoke of “fleeting moods of shadowy exultation.” Is the aura described by Paz and Wordsworth a problem you should try to fix? Is it detrimental to your heroic quest? I don’t think so. Just the opposite, really: I hope you can hang out for a while in this pregnant mystery—between yes and no, between dark and light, between dream and reality. It will help you learn what you’ve been too restless to tune in to in the past.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The imminent future will be a favorable time for refurbished models and revived originals. They are likely to be more fun and interesting the second time around. I suspect this will also be an auspicious phase for substitutes and alternatives. They may even turn out to be better than the so-called real things they replace, so be artful in formulating Plan B and Plan C, Leo. Switching over to backups may ultimately bring out more of the best in you and whisk you toward your ultimate goal in unexpected ways. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In the coming weeks, you might want to read the last few pages of a book before you decide to actually dive in and devour the whole thing. I also suggest you take what I just said as a useful metaphor to apply in other areas. In general, it might be wise to surmise the probable outcomes of games, adventures and experiments before you get totally involved. Try this fun exercise: Imagine you are a psychic prophet as you evaluate the long-range prospects of any influences vying to play a role in your future. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Dear Dr. Astrology: I’m feeling lost, but am also feeling very close to finding my new direction. It hurts! It would be so helpful if I

could just catch a glimpse of that new direction. I’d be able to better endure the pain and confusion if I could get a tangible sense of the future happiness that my pain and confusion are preparing me for. Can you offer me any free advice? —Lost Libra.” Dear Libra: The pain and confusion come from the dying of the old ways. They need to die a bit more before the new direction will reveal itself clearly. I predict that will happen soon—no later than October 1. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Welcome to “Compose Your Own Oracle,” a special edition of Free Will Astrology. Departing from tradition, I’m temporarily stepping aside so you can have the freedom to write the horoscope you want. Normally, you might be in danger of falling victim to presumptuous arrogance if you imagined you could wield control over how your destiny unfolds, but in the days ahead, that rule won’t be as unyielding, because cosmic forces will be giving you more slack than usual. Fate and karma, which frequently impel you to act according to patterns that were set in place long ago, are giving you at least a partial respite. To get the maximum benefit out of “Compose Your Own Oracle,” identify three plot developments you’d like to weave into a self-fulfilling prophecy for your immediate future. Then start weaving.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Almost two-thirds of us confess that if we are alone, we might sip milk directly from the carton rather than first pouring it into a glass. Fourteen percent of us have used milk as part of our sexual activities. One out of every five of us admit we have “borrowed” someone else’s milk from the fridge at work. Most shockingly, four percent of us brag we have blown milk out our noses on purpose. I expect in the next two weeks, you Sagittarians will exceed all these norms. Not just because you’ll be in the mood to engage in mischievous experiments and playful adventures with milk, but because you’re likely to have a looseygoosey relationship with almost everything.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In his novel The Jungle, muckraker Upton Sinclair (1878-1968) exposed the abominable hygiene and working conditions of the meat-packing industry. The uproar that followed led to corrective legislation by the U.S. Congress. Sinclair remained devoted to serving the public good throughout his career. He liked to say the term “social justice” was inscribed on his heart. Drawing from his inspiration, Aquarius, I suggest you decide what your soul’s main motto is—and imagine that it is written on your heart. Now is a perfect moment time to clarify your life’s purpose and intensify your commitment to it; to devote even more practical, tender zeal to fulfilling the reason you were born.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The coming weeks will an excellent time for you to raise funds in support of political prisoners, or to volunteer at a soup kitchen, or to donate blood at a blood bank. In fact, any charitable service you perform for people you don’t know will be excellent for your physical and mental health. You can also generate vivid blessings for yourself by being extra thoughtful, kind, and generous toward people you care for. You’re in a phase of your astrological cycle when unselfish acts will yield maximum selfish benefits.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You know that “patch of bothersome weeds” growing right in the middle of your life? Is it really a patch of bothersome weeds? Or is it perhaps a plot of cultivated blooms that once pleased you but has now turned into a puzzling irrelevancy? Or how about this possibility: Is it a chunk of languishing beauty that might flourish and please you again if it were cared for better? Those are excellent questions for you to pose in the coming days, Pisces. According to my interpretation of the astrological omens, it’s time for you to decide on the future of this quizzical presence.
