HOTEL OCCUPANCY, ONE OF THE BEST GAUGES OF TOURISM IN CHARLESTON, IS DOWN ROUGHLY 30 PERCENT FROM PREVIOUS YEARS

COVID-cation

Health experts cautious of continued travel even as tourism numbers remain low BY HEATH ELLISON

CHARLESTON CITY PAPER 08.26.2020

Coronavirus case numbers are down from recent months — but so is Charleston tourism.

“Hotel occupancy is probably one of the primary metrics,” said Perrin Lawson, deputy director of the Charleston Area Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB). “Hotel occupancy is right around 48 percent … It’s probably down roughly 30 percentage points.” But even as they come in fewer numbers and the CVB continues marketing to potential tourists from afar, public health experts are still wary to recommend travel during the pandemic. Kathleen Cartmell, a professor at Clemson University, said when people vacation in heavily populated areas, it can increase the likelihood of COVID-19 spreading. “I think the most serious examples of that have been when lots of people descended on S.C. beaches this summer, and it seems like many of them took COVID back to their families and friends back home,” she said. Although COVID-19 numbers have fluctuated a bit in recent weeks, case counts remain far below the highs reached in July. South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control announced 543 new

cases on Monday. Aug. 17 only saw 439 new cases. The single-day high for new cases came on July 19 with 2,335. On Aug. 14, Dr. Brannon Traxler with DHEC noted there was a four-week downward trend in cases, but he said it’s possible this is because of a decrease in testing. “We are cautiously optimistic about this trend because the daily number of cases alone doesn’t paint the whole picture of where we are as a state.” Cartmell recommends that vacationers go somewhere more remote while still practicing preventative measures. Face masks, social distancing and practicing hand hygiene, you might have heard, can “go a long way in helping to prevent the spread of COVID-19,” she said. Danielle Scheurer, chief quality officer for the Medical University of South Carolina, said there’s no correct answer, but travelling during a pandemic is still considered “risky.” “You certainly don’t want to travel to an area where the prevalence is higher than where you currently live,” Scheurer said. “Even traveling to an area of lower prevalence

carries some risk because you have to be able to get there.” She added that traveling is a risk that each individual or family needs to take into consideration. Scheurer also believes that following standard preventative measures will reduce the possibility of transmitting or being infected with COVID-19. Charleston’s Visitors Bureau is attempting to keep tourists informed on the local rules, including the ordinances that require masks worn in public places and restaurant capacity slashed. “There is a concern over making sure everyone does what the CDC and DHEC have asked and certainly complies with the ordinances in the various communities that make up the Charleston area,” Lawson said. If COVID-19 is not kept under control, he added, “We unfortunately are not going to see much of an improvement in our industry and by extension many others.” Asked how tourism will rebound from the pandemic, Lawson said the visitors bureau has shifted their marketing to “dry markets” — places that are six-to-eight hours away. “The biggest thing we can do is make sure that South Carolina on the whole and the Charleston region in particular does everything it can to reduce the rate of COVID

“The biggest thing we can do is make sure that South Carolina on the whole and the Charleston region in particular does everything it can to reduce the rate of COVID cases.” —Perrin Lawson

cases,” he said. “You can see a direct correlation between an increase in reported cases and how visitation goes.” Cancellations of large gatherings such as Spoleto Festival USA and the Cooper River Bridge Run eliminated some of the reasons why visitors would travel to Charleston. Lawson said the CVB is working with some of those event planners for next year’s festivities, but whether they happen is up to the organizers. “If they decide to proceed, we certainly will do everything we can that we would typically do to support them,” he said. Lawson has an optimistic view of the local tourism industry’s future, believing they will make “steady, consistent progress to getting back to normal.”

CLYBURN TALKS CHARLESTON’S PAINFUL RACIAL HISTORY IN DNC SPEECH

House Majority Whip James Clyburn spoke Aug. 17 in support of Democratic nominee Joe Biden during the Democratic National Convention’s first night. Clyburn took the moment to reference Charleston’s integral history to the trans-Atlantic slave trade and the Emanuel AME Church shooting in 2015. “The ground beneath our feet is seeded with pain that is both old and new,” he said. “But from that soil we always find a way to grow together.” Clyburn, whose district covers parts of downtown Charleston and the Midlands, pointed to the toppling of the Calhoun statue and the construction of the International African American Museum as evidence that the country is laying the groundwork for “a more just future.” “We can only succeed if we move forward together,” Clyburn said. “So, we will need a president who sees unifying people as a requirement of the job. A president who understands the true meaning of community—and how to build it through trust and humility.” —Heath Ellison

APPEALS DENIED TO HALT DEVELOPMENT OF GHOST ISLAND The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control has denied three requests for review of plans to develop Ghost Island on Aug. 12. Sent by Charleston-area organizations and advocates, the appeals to a pending DHEC permit asked for the small island off the coast of Maryville to be inspected before further building takes place. The island, also called Lining Island, has been at the center of ongoing environmental and historical controversy among residents of Maryville. With conflicting histories backed by the historical record dealing with the presence of family burial grounds, questions remain about existing conditions on the island. In July, DHEC granted a permit allowing utility infrastructure to be extended to the island from the historically black Maryville

neighborhood in West Ashley. The Coastal Conservation League, the Maryville-Ashleyville Neighborhood Association and resident Charlie Smith all filed appeals to stop drilling under marshland and other development until further investigation can be done. “Though the direct impacts of the critical area from this drilling project do not significantly negatively affect the wetlands adjacent to mainland West Ashley and the marshes adjacent to Ghost Island,” CCL officials wrote in an appeal. “There is a significant risk that the project will impact significant historic and cultural resources that have not been surveyed and documented properly.” The parties said they are considering further action, but did not elaborate. —Skyler Baldwin

PANDEMIC BUMPS SC MEDICAID ENROLLMENT

6

The number of adults covered by Medicaid in South Carolina rose 4.9 percent from March 1 to July 1 as the impact of the recession caused by the coronavirus pandemic roiled the state. Experts say the rise could be just the beginning of an enrollment spike in a program that accounts for billions of dollars in the state budget. “More people may be coming,” Palmetto Project Director of Programs Shelli Quenga said this week, adding that she was surprised it hadn’t risen by more. “(4.9 percent) seems like a low number.” Meanwhile, Democratic lawmakers are increasing calls to expand eligibility for the program. As part of the Palmetto Project’s InsureSC program, Quenga and others work to help South Carolinians find affordable health care coverage, including helping them navigate the Medicaid process. She said she has received more calls from people saying they thought their job was coming back but after several months of waiting, they now need health coverage as the state is seeing yet another uptick in those seeking unem-

ployment insurance. The increase to Medicaid’s Healthy Connections program in South Carolina from March to July has been 51,681 people, according to data obtained from Medicaid agency S.C. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). As of July 1, Healthy Connections, which offers state and federal subsidized insurance for adults, covered 1,091,999 people. In South Carolina, only about 40 percent of beneficiaries are adults, according to DHHS. Walhalla Republican Sen. Thomas Alexander said the increase in enrollment was expected. “That’s not unusual when we’ve seen economic downturn over the years, it normally goes up some. That is consistent and does not surprise me under the circumstance,” he said. Alexander and Beaufort Republican Rep. Bill Herbkersman lead the budget subcommittees on DHHS spending. “As we all know, Health and Human Services is the biggest part of the budget for the state. It would definitely make an impact,” Herbkersman said. “It’s all specula-

tion right now but it’s not going to be good.” In the 2018-2019 budget year, South Carolina spent $1.8 billion on Medicaid services with a $6.2 billion match from the federal government, according to a January 2020 presentation from DHHS. Democratic lawmakers say the pandemic has exposed the state’s need for expanding Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. S.C. is one of 12 states that has yet to expand Medicaid to include adults earning 100 percent to 200 percent of the federal poverty level. Recently, Missouri, Oklahoma and three other states passed Medicaid expansion via ballot initiatives. In addition to failing to pass legislation expanding Medicaid, S.C. Democrats have failed to get such ballot initiatives passed to let voters decide. “South Carolina and other states like us with high levels of poverty, we can’t afford not to,” said Hopkins Democratic Rep. Wendy Brawley, adding that the first years of expansion would be shouldered by the feds. “The number of lives it can save and the number of opportunities (it will create) is going to save on money.” —Lindsay Street

BUS RAPID TRANSIT IS COMING, BUT ADVOCATES PUSH FOR ALTERNATIVES

The Lowcountry Rapid Transit project aims to connect Summerville, downtown and everywhere in between. But activist William Hamilton has continued to push for other options as congestion remains a pressing issue in Charleston, and a local political leader and former member of county council said he has a point. “The latest iteration of this transit plan is operating in regular traffic, but they claim it’s still a rapid transit system. I don’t see it that way,” said William Hamilton, the founder of Best Friends of Lowcountry Transit. Hamilton is no stranger to standing alone as a vocal advocate, but on this issue he has found an ally in Colleen Condon, the chair of the local Democratic Party and a former member of Charleston County Council. “If you’ve been following Hamilton for a while, you know he’s a quirky guy,” said Condon. “But, damn he’s committed. CARTA has improved so much in the last 10 years, but we still almost exclusively have people who ride public transit by necessity, not by choice. The only way people are going to want to use it is if it provides comfort and a timely route.” Currently, the proposed bus rapid transit (BRT) line would shuttle specialty buses in dedicated lanes along Rivers Avenue before merging into mixed traffic to connect outlying areas with downtown. With one-way commutes over the full line estimated to be one hour, it may be a start, but Hamilton said the workers who rely on it will still spend too much time in traffic. “If we don’t have meaningful bus rapid transit, there’s no reason to even try, because this isn’t even BRT, it’s just transit,” Condon said. “We know how much traffic has changed in the last 20 years, adding more lanes only adds a temporary Band-Aid that we soon outgrow again. There needs to be meaningful change, and that has to include meaningful BRT.” Hamilton and Condon have proposed running a downtown portion of the line under I-26, where the city has planned to build a park system, Lowcountry Lowline. “I’m trying to reach out to my former colleagues at the county and CARTA to say, ‘Come on, guys, help me understand why we can’t put Lowline and BRT under I-26,’” Condon said. “BRT can be exactly where the rail line currently is, and there’s plenty of room under I-26 for the park next to it.” —Skyler Baldwin

After being detained for driving under the influence, a man described his drunkenness quite eloquently, saying that on a scale of one to 10, one being sober and 10 being highly intoxicated, he was a solid four. But officers know: If you say you’re a four, you’re probably closer to an eight.

The Blotter is taken from reports filed with Charleston Police Department between Aug. 12 and Aug. 19. No one described in this section has been found guilty, just unlucky. A check for $5,950 was stolen from a man’s vehicle parked in downtown Charleston. Free financial advice: Leaving a check for thousands of dollars in an unlocked car is not a great move. A man sent $4,000 worth of gift cards to a man he believed to be Mark Zuckerberg on WhatsApp. He realized he was being scammed after “the real Mark Zuckerberg” messaged him to tell him that his Instagram had been hacked. If more people would read the Blotter, there would surely be fewer counts of flim-flammery in these entries. A West Ashley man told responding officers that his motorcycle, which had chrome on it “like the bike from Ghost Rider” was stolen. Staying on theme, some impressive drag marks were left at the scene that the owner said he didn’t leave himself. We can only hope that the culprit is in fact the real Ghost Rider, and the bike is in better hands now.

The saga continues: Officers responded to the maintenance building at a West Ashley apartment complex after receiving a call that a black pressure washer was missing. That brings the total number of stolen pressure washers in the Blotter over recent weeks up to three, and the culprit has graduated from shoplifting to burglary. Stay safe out there, folks. Two adults distracted employees at a West Ashley beauty store while three children roamed the store, filling bags brought from home with merchandise before escaping through the front door. Apparently the term “crime family” is a bit more literal these days. After officers found a plastic bag of marijuana on a suspect, they discovered a glass pipe containing a white crystal-like substance in his underwear. We definitely don’t know anything about illicit drugs, but keeping your probable meth pipe in your underwear seems like a bad idea.

If we’ve learned anything from this week’s Blotter, it’s that there’s nothing more terrifying than a woman with a pink stun gun four vodka martinis deep on a Wednesday. You don’t want to know. A woman admitted her birthday was in April 2002, while being questioned by police for public intoxication. As she was arrested, her “other” ID, which listed the date of birth as April 1998, slipped out of her bag. Whoops.

Officers located a car reported stolen, still in the same parking lot it was stolen from. They contacted the owner, but before he was able reach the car, the thief managed to drive it away after police left the scene. Come on, guys, this is on you.

Pandemic public comments can make a difference

E

CHARLESTON CITY PAPER 08.26.2020

ven as the coronavirus pandemic wreaks havoc on our institutions, at least one venerable mainstay of local government has remained: the public comment period. It’s easier than ever to give an earful to your public officials — and easier than ever to notice when they ignore it. Tune in to any livestreamed council or commission meeting these days and you will likely see sometimes expressionless politicians staring into their screens as disembodied voices of residents hold the virtual floor for a few seconds. Public comment periods are usually reserved for dogged activists, NIMBY curmudgeons and various others with the means and the time to attend an in-person weeknight meeting. In normal times, a long list of public commenters is a show of force that can often tilt a controversial vote. Whatever the result, elected officials know they’ll have to answer for their decisions on the way out of the meeting room or at the ballot box. But for those who aren’t there when it happens, meeting video archives are rarely adequate and often get stashed five-clicks-deep on a government website. With virtual videoconferences and time-shifted informational meetings now the norm, governments have gotten more creative to make sure people can still have their say. And since it’s 2020 and we’re confronting demons ranging from structural racism to public health, there has been plenty to discuss. Phone, recorded and written public comments have contributed to discussions around Lowcountry Rapid Transit, the removal of the John C. Calhoun statue, and the city’s and police department’s

reactions to the May protests. On the other hand, without hard-and-fast policies on how to deal with public comments, they can easily be brushed aside. During the Aug. 19 Charleston Planning Commission meeting, staff members did their best to work through public comments, but glossed over some points from residents about the massive Laurel Island planned development, which was ultimately approved after a threehour meeting. Local governments should develop across-the-board policies for how to gather and record public comments during the pandemic, even for small local boards. As public meetings continue virtually and we have little in-person interaction with our leaders, it’s more important than ever to continue to exercise your democratic privilege to participate in public meetings. Charlestonians can visit innovate.charleston-sc.gov to find out how to participate in upcoming public meetings. Local residents can also weigh in on two important public proposals right now: You can review Charleston’s 10-year comprehensive plan at charlestoncityplan.com. Mount Pleasant residents can submit public reactions to proposals to expand S.C. Highway 41 where suburban sprawl threatens the historically black Phillips community. The pandemic is forcing us all to reevaluate how we do things. Expanding ways people can petition their elected leaders for redress of grievances during public meetings using technology is one novel piece of democracy that should outlast COVID-19.

A FEW WORDS | BY ANDY BRACK

The Absentee Election Don’t get conned on postal service, election process Don’t let yourself be conned by the Con Man in Chief: Postal workers will deliver your mailed-in ballot just fine, thank you very much. In fact, President Donald Trump, who unpatriotically has been denigrating the U.S. Postal Service, believes in mail-in voting so much that he’s going to vote (wait for it) by mail. What Trump is trying to do is make you believe our postal workers, who deliver billions of holiday packages every year, can’t effectively deliver several millions of absentee ballots. They can. It will be a walk in the park for them. Trump is desperately trying to sow the seeds of confusion to make you believe there could be a problem in final results. He assumes Democrats across the country are so eager to see his rear end booted from Washington that they’ll vote as early as they can. And he knows if he makes Republicans think there’s something wrong with mail-in voting, then they’ll tend to vote in person on election day. Why is this even a thing? Because mail-in ballots take longer to process. On election night, in a close race, in-person results will tumble in first. Initially, it could appear in some states that Trump is ahead, particularly if lots of Democrats vote by mail and GOP

voters cast ballots in person. But when absentee ballots are added to election day ballots, Democratic nominee Joe Biden could end up with more votes. That sets the stage for Trump to do what he really wants — to complain the election was “stolen” from him. Hogwash. It’s all a Trump con job. “Elections in the United States have been the envy of much of the world for a very long time,” said Lynn Teague of the League of Women Voters of South Carolina. “Anything involving many millions of people has occasional hiccups, but on the whole, our election processes are tried and true.” In this pandemic year, people want to vote absentee because they don’t want to stand in long lines and potentially be exposed to the virus. “Voters should understand what that means,” Teague said. “States that don’t permit processing absentee ballots before Election Day will report their results late, possibly quite a few days after Election Day. The results, and the winners, will change as the absentee ballots are counted.” In other words, early outcomes that may seem conclusive may shift as all ballots are counted. “This is NOT evidence of incompetence or fraud and it does NOT mean that the election is in some way illegiti-

mate. It is simply the process of vote counting playing out. We hope that the political parties will not mislead voters and that media will not play into misperceptions about this by attempting to ‘call’ elections before all absentee ballots are counted. This election matters too much to become embroiled in manufactured controversy.” So here’s what state legislators need to do when they return next month: Make it easier for South Carolinians to vote absentee by allowing the pandemic as an authorized excuse for a mail-in ballot, just like they did in the primary. And, they need to allow county election officials to start counting the expected deluge of absentee ballots early so there aren’t delays in reporting. Such a process worked in June, S.C. Election Commission Executive Director Marci Andino wrote to legislative leaders in July: “The primaries were successful overall as voters were able to vote in a timely and efficient manner, and election officials were able to count those votes and report totals on election night.” Legislators: Rise to the occasion and make the changes so election officials can do their jobs in November. Voters: Trust the system and postal service, not the president’s attempt to con you. Andy Brack is publisher of Charleston City Paper.

BEATING  THE ODDS

‘I’ve already won’: Meet the man seeking to dethrone Graham By Lindsay Street

Jaime Harrison is used to being an

10

“I came into this world as an underdog,” Harrison told the City Paper. “The odds were always long for me in terms of whether or not I could succeed and break out of the generational poverty.” But he’s also been an uncommonly successful underdog, seen now in his competitive bid against incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. Graham came into 2020 one of the “safe” Republicans up for reelection in the U.S. Senate, but Harrison closed the gap on fundraising and then at the polls as the coronavirus pandemic swept the nation. “You have hit the perfect storm is what’s happened. Jaime is an ideal kind of Democratic candidate for this moment,” Furman University politics professor Danielle Vinson said. “He understands people from South Carolina, understands working class South Carolina and he’s a more moderate Democrat by virtue of being a South Carolina Democrat.” Camden Democratic Sen. Vincent Sheheen said the national “giant Democratic wave” in 2020 will help Harrison. “Clearly, he’s capitalized on national trends but you only do that if you are the right person who’s willing to take the risk at the right time and he was,” said Sheheen, who has twice run statewide as a Democratic nominee for governor. “When he decided to run, he had no chance in winning and that takes a lot of courage.” As the election season has worn on, speculation has grown nationally about whether Graham could fall. This month, Cook Political Report changed its election forecast for the race from “likely” Republican to “lean” Republican, meaning that Graham still has the advantage, but it is less secure than it once was. Graham has held the seat since 2003 with no competitive general election foes, according to Vinson. South Carolina’s two U.S. Senate seats have remained Republican since 2005, after Sen. Fritz Hollings, a Democrat, decided not to run for reelection and the seat was seized by Jim DeMint. FiveThirtyEight shows a narrow race with Graham holding a 3-point lead over Harrison in the most recent poll and a virtual tie in a poll earlier this month. Harrison said he’s not surprised.

underdog. The 44-year-old black man was born to a single, teenage mother and raised by his grandparents in poverty in Orangeburg.


Harrison’s first success was catapulting himself from a high-poverty high school to getting his undergraduate education at Yale University and earning a law degree from Georgetown University. His next was breaking into Washington, D.C., first as a staffer for U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn, and then as a lobbyist. Then, he became the first African American to lead the S.C. Democratic Party. And it all started with a terrible moment in middle school, when Harrison’s grandparents lost their home in what he calls a scam. He said the loss is the reason why he went to law school and then into politics. Later, as a lobbyist, he accomplished his goal by buying his grandparents a home. He said it was one of the best days of his life. Now, he’s set his sights on the U.S. Senate, a seat previously held by John C. Calhoun and “Pitchfork Ben” Tillman, who sought to deny others opportunity and freedoms because of the color of their skin. “What I’m trying to do and the reason why I’m running is that I don’t want to be an outlier. I don’t want my story to be an anomaly. I want it to be the typical that we expect in this country,” Harrison said. “I remember some of the kids that I grew up with who were just as smart, just as good, but because of one thing or another, they got trapped and therefore derailed and therefore the dreams that they had turned into nightmares.” It’s difficult to separate Harrison’s political and family life. Even on their first date in 2008, wife Marie

‘Good trouble’ Middleton said he’s happy voters are getting to know a “genuine” character. “People have been seeing what I and many others have known since the first day of interacting with Jaime. You can’t teach it, you can’t fake it, this is as real as it gets,” said Middleton, who met Harrison while both were in Washington in 2001 while Harrison was working in Clyburn’s office. Sheheen used similar words to describe Harrison. “Jaime has a very calming influence on people. He is sincere, he is calming, he is very much about uniting people and trying to bring people together,” Sheheen said. Harrison said he is just being “the guy that my grandparents raised me to be.” He said he looks to his grandparents and to civil rights icon U.S. Rep. John Lewis of Georgia, and the racism they faced. Lewis died earlier this summer, and Harrison said he considered him a friend. “(Lewis) was a man who had dogs sicced on him, was spat upon, who was beaten, his skull was fractured. But he was the most gentle and the kindest person you could ever meet. And the same thing with my grandparents,” Harrison said. “You would think after going through that, you would have a spirit that would be angry and upset with folks, holding a

“WE ARE SEEING THE CLOSING DAYS OF THE OLD SOUTH AND I BELIEVE THAT THIS RACE WILL BECOME ONE OF THE VERY FIRST STEPS TO MOVE INTO A NEW CHAPTER IN OUR HISTORY CALLED THE NEW SOUTH, ONE THAT IS BOLD, THAT IS INCLUSIVE, THAT’S DIVERSE.” —Jaime Harrison

grudge and what have you, but none of that.” Harrison considers his race against Graham to be what Lewis would call “good trouble,” a step toward what he calls the “new South.” “We are seeing the closing days of the old South and I believe that this race will become one of the very first steps to move into a new chapter in our history called the new South, one that is bold, that is inclusive, that’s diverse,” Harrison said. He said it would be quite an accomplishment not only for a black man to hold the seat of Calhoun, Strom Thurmond and Tillman, but also for South Carolina to have two African-American senators for the first time in its history. U.S. Sen. Tim Scott, a Republican, has held the seat since 2013.

LINDSEY GRAHAM ON HIS REELECTION U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham is seeking reelection to a fourth term in office. We reached out to discuss the campaign and why South Carolinians should vote for him. Here’s what he had to say:

‘A Democrat my entire life’ Leading up to the 2014 campaign season, Sheheen saw Harrison as the future of the Democratic party. He saw a man, raised in poverty in South Carolina, who had years of experience working under Clyburn and in Washington, D.C. He said he urged Harrison to lead the state Democratic party. Harrison took the helm. “Am I Democrat? Yes. Been a Democrat my entire life but that’s not what defines me. What defines me are the values that I hold and the experiences that I’ve had in life,” Harrison said. In his senatorial bid, Harrison has affirmed he supports a right to abortion, the expansion of Medicaid, increasing the minimum wage, the Democratic push on climate action and legalizing marijuana. When it comes to endless wars, Harrison described himself as “a diplomacy-first type of person” — in direct contrast with Graham’s interventionist politics. “Will (voters) always agree with me on every issue? Probably not. I don’t always agree with my wife on every issue and I love her from here to the moon,” Harrison said. “They should always know I am going to do what’s in the best interest of people, to find the good in everything and find the good in every person.” Last week, the Graham campaign began hitting Harrison over his lobbying experience. From 2008 until 2016, Harrison worked for the Podesta Group, where he represented major corporations like Lockheed Martin, Walmart, the S.C. Ports Authority, the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity and the University of South Carolina, among others. In a conversation with the City Paper, Harrison said the lobbying gig was a job that paid down student loan debts and helped him buy his grandparents a house. “You have clients and clients have issues and you represent your clients. That doesn’t always mean that your clients’ beliefs are your personal beliefs,” Harrison said. “I will always represent the people’s needs first.” Vinson said Harrison’s lobbying work — especially his representation of job-creating entities and helping to secure funding for dredging the Charleston Harbor — may not be a negative in business-minded South Carolina. “In some ways, Harrison is less threatening as a Democrat to the business wing of the Republican Party,” she said. “That’s one of the reasons he can be competitive. He’s not a scary Democrat.” Learn more about Harrison on his campaign website: jaimeharrison.com.

EDITOR’S NOTE: We requested an interview with Graham, but after weeks of communication with the campaign, we got the equivalent of a big fat nope. For more on Graham, visit his campaign website: lindseygraham.com.

‘An anomaly’

Boyd said her future husband discussed issues and talking to people in South Carolina — 12 years before his first campaign ad aired. “Jaime talked a lot about South Carolina and I came away from that first in-person meeting really feeling that he had a great commitment to his family, and to his friends many of whom were like family,” she said. “I knew from that initial conversation that he was just so passionate about the state and the issues.” Friends and family say, politics aside, Harrison is a talent in the kitchen. Friend Clay Middleton of Charleston said Harrison could sell his red velvet cake, it’s so good. Boyd likes his macaroni and cheese. His two sons, ages 1 and 5, like his pancakes. Middleton said Harrison’s No. 1 priority, especially as a man who grew up without his father around, is to be “the best father he can to his boys.” Harrison said he was “blessed to have father figures throughout my life,” including Clyburn, his uncles, his stepfather and others. Harrison said he has a cordial relationship with his father as an adult.

“I always knew I could win this. I wouldn’t have gotten in if I thought I didn’t have a shot,” Harrison said. Political observers say a Harrison win will rely on registering voters and getting them to the polls. “He literally has to have everybody,” Vinson said. “I won’t believe (Harrison can win) until the last vote’s counted.” No matter the outcome of the election, Harrison said his campaign’s success shows a change coming to South Carolina. “See, I’ve already won. Seriously, I’ve already won,” he said. “This campaign is about bringing hope back. It is about inspiring a whole new generation of leaders. Letting folks know that they can do things that they can achieve and be what they want to be.”

artifacts ‘OUTER BANKS’ IS LOOKING FOR SEASON 2 EXTRAS AND HAS ‘A GREAT NEED FOR TEENS’

SAUNDRA DEATHOS-MEERS PLANS ON PRESENTING “THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO” WITH A FULL SYMPHONY, VIRTUAL OR OTHERWISE

A New ‘Marriage’ College of Charleston expands their opera program with a production of ‘The Marriage of Figaro’ BY VINCENT HARRIS Saundra DeAthos-Meers has been singing for as long as she can remember. But, she didn’t find her true calling as a vocalist until she was a junior at Central Michigan University. DeAthos-Meers was studying to become a music teacher — she now teaches voice and opera at College of Charleston — when she went on a trip with her classmates and professors and made a profound discovery. “I picked up some CDs in the library for the drive,” said DeAthos-Meers. “I had my little portable CD player with my headphones, and I was laying in the back of the van, and I played this CD of Maria Callas. She was singing ‘Vissi d’Arte’ from ‘Tosca,’ and it was so life-changing. I laid on that seat and just wept, and I had no idea why I was crying. It was a visceral response to the music she was making, the words she was saying, even though I had no idea what they were; she just seemed to be singing from the center of her being.” DeAthos-Meers was hooked. “I just had to hear more,” she said. “So when I got home, I bought all of her CDs. I listened to everything I could get my hands on, which led me down the rabbit hole of learning about all these operas ... It all happened very fast once I discovered it.” As a teacher and a performer, DeAthosMeers has amassed a long and impressive

resume, spending 10 years as music coordinator in the theater department at Illinois Wesleyan University and performing in title roles for a handful of well-known operas.

“I want (CofC) to be one of those schools on the list of young aspiring opera singers.” — Saundra DeAthos-Meers, Voice and Opera Professor

DeAthos-Meers performed Brahms’ “Ein Deutches Requiem” with the Charleston Symphony Orchestra in 2012. That’s when she first met Robert Taylor and professor David Templeton from CofC, a connection that led to her eventual hiring in 2017. The College already put on children’s operas for elementary schools, but DeAthos-Meers wanted to stage full operatic productions with orchestral backing. “The students have been doing cut-down versions of opera or one-act operas,” she said. “My predecessor had always done the performances in the recital hall, but we didn’t have any backstage space, and we had to take seats out to fit an orchestra.” But in 2019, CofC announced the renovation of the large, elegant school-owned

Sottile Theatre and the College began looking for large-scale events to celebrate its 250th anniversary. DeAthos-Meers proposed a plan to stage two operas per year, one as a full performance with sets, costumes and an orchestra. The first production at the College will be Mozart’s 1786 opera “The Marriage of Figaro,” which is scheduled for performances in February 2021. And DeAthos-Meers is going to push ahead with putting it together, even with the cloud of COVID-19. “The plan is we will be doing a full production with the Charleston Symphony Orchestra alongside our players,” she said. “It will be a big event, and I know I can move it forward, even if it has to be virtual for a while. I’m going to cast the opera, even if it’s a socially distanced performance.” And DeAthos-Meers has bigger plans in store if the new program goes well, mostly thanks to her students. “I have to say, these students I’ve worked with for the past two years have exceeded my expectations,” she said. “My long-term goal is to have a full undergrad opera program, with young singers having the ability to play lead roles on the main stage. I want (CofC) to be one of those schools on the list of young aspiring opera singers.”

Netflix’s smash hit Outer Banks is returning to Charleston to begin filming season two and agents are looking for extras, according to a casting call sent Thursday. “Though we will have a great need for teens and young adults, there will be plenty of opportunities for all ages to work on the production throughout the duration of filming,” read a press release from TW Cast and Recruit. Extras will be paid $80 for an 8-hour workday, with overtime beyond that. Filming begins on Aug. 31, according to the release. Outer Banks, filmed along the Charleston coastline in 2019, and was released April 15, sitting at No. 1 on Netflix in the weeks following Tiger King. Netflix announced that the series was renewed for a second season in July. Outer Banks is an “action-adventure” series following the puberty-fueled lives of well-to-do (the Kooks) and workaday teenagers (the Pogues) in fictional communities along North Carolina’s ... Outer Banks. Filming may be returning to Charleston, but an Instagram post announcing season two teased, “See you in the Bahamas.” Is Charleston the North Carolina Outer Banks and also the Bahamas? Who knows? Interested in applying? Follow TW Casting at facebook.com/ TWCastandRecruit. —Sam Spence

MEMORIAM 

BY PARKER MILNER Looking for an affordable wine to sip on the patio, pool or boat? Sella & Mosca cannonau 2017, Italy, $19.99 – “From the isle of Sardinia, cannonau is the island’s version of grenache. Soft and spicy with bright red fruit notes makes this a guzzler on the porch,” van Beyrer told us. Monarch Wine Merchants (1107 King St.) owner Justin Coleman also sells several bottles he said fit into the “summer red” category. Here are two: Indigeno, Vino rosso, Abruzzo, Italy NV $27.99 – “A red wine from Abruzzo, Central Italy, made from 100 percent Montepulciano,” Coleman said. “Spontaneous fermentation in open vats and skin contact for one day. Tart black berries and raspberries mingle with pepper and dried herbs. Light, crisp and refreshing on the palate with a great earthy finish. Our go-to pizza wine.” Macatho ‘Segundo Flores’ Valle del Maule, Chile 2017 $29.99 – “Made from three tiny parcels of 150-year-old país grown in the Maule Valley on granite clay soils. A grape brought to the Americas by Spanish missionaries to be used for sacrament wine. continued on page 17

You’ve probably run through your share of frozen drinks, alcoholic seltzers and proseccos by this point in the summer, so it’s as good a time as any to switch up your beverage of choice. National Red Wine Day is coming up on Aug. 28, so we wondered: What are some refreshing reds to enjoy in the summer heat? “As a sommelier, I get this question quite a bit from guests that prefer reds all year round or simply are not fans of white wines,” said Jonella Orozco, co-founder of Mantra Wine Distributors. “I look for reds with a lighter body and higher acidity so that the palate remains ‘quenched,’ so to speak.” “French gamay, namely Beaujolais, is a great option. I prefer these because their fruitiness just shines when they are slightly chilled and they just seem more adequate when drunk in the S.C. heat.” Bottles Beverage Superstore has just the wine, available by the case at its Mount Pleasant store (610 Coleman Blvd.). Lapierre raisin Gaulois 2018, Beaujolais, France, $16.99 – “From arguably the greatest producer in Beaujolais, this organic gamay noir is the winery’s second label that crushes with soft red berries notes and plush, lush texture,” said Bottles wine director Mike van Beyrer.

continued from page 15 Super light and bright with tart strawberry, raspberry and a ton of spice: cardamom, mace, pepper. A perfect wine for grilled meats,” Coleman said. Stems & Skins (1070 East Montague Ave.) co-owner Matt Tunstall knows you don’t want to drink the same red wine in August that you would in December. “The key to drinking red wines in the summer time is to stay light and refreshing. Choose grape varieties that are higher in acidity and thin-skinned. Also, wines fermented by carbonic maceration can give you wines very light on their feet too. That’s gonna give you what you need for refreshment.” Here are Tunstall’s picks for fun, hot weather reds from his Park Circle wine bar. 2019 Iruai “Shasta-Cascade” red, Calif., $27 – “Tangy, high-toned dark fruit, and it drinks like adult Kool-Aid.” 2017 Robert Chevillon Bourgogne passetoutgrain, Burgundy, France, $31 – “A more serious wine, and a good way to get into Burgundy without the price tag. Passetoutgrain is always a blend of gamay and pinot noir.” Graft Wine Shop (700 King St.) coowner Femi Oyediran has a rosé — he said that’s technically in the red wine family — that he suggests for this time of year. 2019 Lamoresca rosato, Italy, $36 – “Lamoresca’s rosato — yup, a rosé — has been one of my favorite things to drink this summer. It’s a blend of Nero d’Avola and frappato from Sicily. For notes, think pomegranate, sour watermelon, cherry and hints of peach. The texture and acid here is just perfect for warm weather. While it is labeled as a rosato, it’s certainly dark enough to warrant glares from some lighter reds on our shelves.”

MONARCH WINE MERCHANTS HAS RED WINE THAT PAIRS WITH PIZZA AND GRILLED MEATS

POST HOUSE SET TO REOPEN WITH DRAMATIC UPDATES

Post House Restaurant + Inn has reopened in Mount Pleasant after undergoing significant renovations led by Kate and Ben Towill of design and hospitality firm Basic Projects. Evan Gaudreau, a 2019 James Beard Foundation Rising Star Chef nominee, will lead the kitchen as executive chef. The Old Village Post House closed in February 2019 after 16 years at 101 Pitt St. The Towills completely redesigned the circa1896 space, moving the main dining room to the back of the restaurant and the bar to face Pitt Street. The space is adorned with antiques, vintage rugs, local art, archival wallpaper and handcrafted fixtures. Gaudreau, a Boston native and Culinary Institute of America grad, joins Post House after spending the last six months working at Spade and Clover, a small farm on Johns Island. Prior to his work on the farm, Gaudreau was a cook at The Ordinary, sous chef at Xiao Bao Biscuit and executive chef at Renzo, where he earned the Rising Star Chef nod. His regional menu will feature seasonal snacks, raw bar options, fresh pastas, local seafood and an assortment of vegetarian dishes. Littleneck clam spaghetti, vegetarian green curry and South Carolina swordfish with horseradish mustard are some of the main dishes that will pair with starters like crab toast and raw oysters. The restaurant will also feature an expansive wine list with bottles from around the world. Post House is open for dinner Tuesday through Saturday from 5-10 p.m. starting Aug. 22, with weekend brunch following soon. For more information, visit theposthouseinn.com. —Parker Milner

CATCH RODNEY SCOTT IN ‘CHEF’S TABLE’ SEASON 7

Acclaimed local pitmaster Rodney Scott of Rodney Scott’s BBQ will make an appearance on season seven of Chef’s Table, Netflix’s original series highlighting chefs from around the world. Scott, who owns restaurants in Charleston and Birmingham with another on the way in Atlanta, will be featured in the third episode. “It’s unbelievable, humbling and exciting,” said Scott. “It’s a dream come true to be recognized on another level of media. Netflix is huge.” Scott joins Sean Brock, who appeared on season six, as the only chefs with Charleston ties to appear on Chef’s Table. “I’ve never shot that long with a crew,” said Scott, who explained the episode portrays his day-to-day routine. “I got to see how certain scenes are made with other TV shows.” The entire season will be released on Sept. 2. Scott wasn’t sure when and where he would be watching the episode. “No major plans right now,” he said. “I’ll probably just be at home to watch it with the family.” —PM

GLIZZY WROTE AND RECORDED HER LATEST MIXTAPE IN TWO WEEKS

Top Gear Glizzy goes into Overdrive after burnout on new mixtape

CHARLESTON CITY PAPER 08.26.2020

BY ALEX PEEPLES

22

Da’Zuanay McJimpson, better known as rapper Glizzy, proved to be one of the hardest working people in local music when she released her mixtapes Glizzel da Don and Welcome to West Carolina back to back in 2018 and 2019. Not only did she pour all of herself into those two projects, she is also a mother and was working six days a week as a bartender at the time. Like a lot of artists on a local level, burnout will settle in when you have to make a living for yourself and loved ones. “Since the last mixtape I made I did not want to make music,” McJimpson said. “Any bit of artistry that I had in me was on the backburner.” That was until “about a month ago” when she was up late writing. “My sister texted me saying, ‘Make sure that you write, you need to put out there what it is that you’re going through because so many other people are dealing with the same things,’” she recalled. “That encouraged me to write and then, literally, the new mixtape was done in about two weeks.” Not long after her burst of writing, she went into Twin D1st Century Entertainment’s studio with local producers Qualos and Big Hoove. After two threehour recording sessions, her new mixtape, Overdrive, came to life.

It’s a perfect title for this project. She chose to creatively kick herself into gear to lasso the whirlwind of work and motherhood, harmonizing her personal and creative lives. “It’s me talking to myself and reminding myself, ‘You went through that stuff and you fell sometimes but get up, look in the mirror and tell yourself that you’ve got this; you’re a mom, a bartender, a rapper, a friend, an aunt, a cousin and you’re going to stay positive even in a trying time,” she said. For Glizzy fans, Overdrive has everything that made her last two tapes so strong. Her rapping exudes the same clever, grown up confidence and rolling steam engine rhythm that stays tightly fused with Qualos and Big Hoove’s beats. The tracks where she raps are where the fun is, but don’t sleep on the slower numbers where she opts to sing. The move into the sensual R&B tracks is almost jarring, but Glizzy proves she can do both with the same conviction. That self-assurance takes on different shades. “My style is always going to be tough,” she said. “I rap, but I definitely don’t consider

myself a rapper, because that’s not all that I do. There’s a lot of singing on this, like I wrote my first song for my son on this mixtape. But I do like hard rapping too because I always see myself as an underdog.” That love present in the song about her son is what drives Overdrive — and Glizzy as an artist. For some, the idea of her unapologetic, high-speed rapping about her own sexual confidence may not seem like an example of that, but she says everything comes out of compassion for other working-class people. “There’s a lot of people like me. I’m no different from your everyday mom, from the girl down your street that does your hair, or the bartender at that other restaurant you went to,” she said. “We glamorize and glorify the rich and things that shine. I’m not trying to turn dust into diamonds, I’m just trying to put it out there so that people respect what we go through, our hustle, our wit.” Overdrive debuted on streaming services Aug. 20, which is also Glizzy’s late grandmother’s birthday. “I always wanted to dedicate something to her. That made me want to go all out with this one.” Listeners have every reason to believe that she has done just that.

Firefly Distillery will open its doors for more social-distanced concerts Sept. 5 with the fall Safe Sounds series.

MEL WASHINGTON AND WYATT DURRETTE KNOW ‘LOVE WINS’ ON LATEST SINGLE

Local singer-songwriter Mel Washington released a new single inspired by racial unrest, “Love Wins,” Aug. 19. The tune premiered with American Songwriter. “Love Wins” was written and performed with Wyatt Durrette, a local songwriter who has worked for years with the Zac Brown Band. The song is a slow tune with a powerful message: Through the pain and tiredness, love will win. Washington told American Songwriter the song came out of a conversation. “We wanted to talk about what we’re all feeling without making it political, without yelling at one another, but really helping each other understand our experiences and our perspectives a little better,” he said. The message is perfectly expressed through the lyric, “I know you’re scared, brother, I am too, but know fear don’t stand a chance against ‘I love you.’” It sets the tone for others to understand they’re not alone in their feelings. —HM

Dream pop artist Estee will release a music video for her new single “Nature” Sept. 1. The video’s vintage vibe is a fitting accompaniment to the tune’s ’80s aesthetic. “The song is about a first love but I really didn’t want to get too literal with the video by role-playing a storyline with a couple,” Estee told the City Paper. “I would rather create something visually interesting than tell a story, though that can be cool too if done properly. The space we chose spoke for itself.” The video for “Nature” depicts Estee and dancers Chelsea Ray and Jade Amani grooving through a roller skating rink, with grainy footage and an innocent setting highlighting the theme of young love. Millennial nostalgia is so ingrained in the music video that it starts with static and a blue screen, like a worn home movie in a VCR. It’s got a subtle charm, much like the song’s pulsing rhythm and airy vocals. Even the idea for a video based around dance moves, choreographed by Ray, was inspired by ’90s pop. Estee had free reign to highlight these aspects of the song as the video’s director, as well. The cinematography, done by Dr. Mambo drummer Stephen Massar, helped bring it to life. This is the second video Estee has directed and the third she self-produced. “Nature” was independently released. “There’s a history of men taking credit for and framing the conversation around the art of women, especially in the world of music,” Estee wrote in a press release. “It has been important for me, especially as a Middle Eastern American woman in the South, to own my contributions.” Although “Nature” dates back to 2018, the single appears on Estee’s LP In the Dream,
