2020 ELECTION

Raising Hands

Charleston school board members face a short term with high stakes BY SKYLER BALDWIN and SAM SPENCE

Five members of Charleston County school board will be elected to short terms in November after a year of contentious reforms that triggered state-level political intervention and COVID-19 precautions that forced officials to rethink their approach.

CHARLESTON CITY PAPER 10.07.2020

Before the pandemic brought a hard stop to business as usual, Charleston County School District trustees were charting dramatic “Mission Critical” changes that were aimed at eliminating achievement gaps and boosting promising programs. But local legislators cried foul once they caught wind of some of the big-ticket program proposals involving school closures and consolidations, pumping the brakes on the changes and enacting some of their own. As a result, district representation will move to singlemember districts in 2022. Until now, members were elected to four-year terms by voters countywide for nine seats divided between downtown, East Cooper, North Charleston and areas west of the Ashley River. The five members elected this year will serve two-year terms for two seats in West Ashley, two in North Charleston and one downtown. Starting in 2022, the entire board will be elected by residents within districts that align with Charleston County Council.

West Ashley Despite what he said in the past, West Ashley incumbent Chris Fraser isn’t ready to give up his seat and possibly pass up the opportunity to make a difference. Fraser is defending his seat and incumbent Priscilla Jeffries opted not to run, leaving her seat open. Fraser served on the board from 2008 to 2014, taking up the mantle once again in 2019 to fill a vacancy. Since then, he’s acknowledged many of the issues the school board is dealing with are much the same as they were more than a decade ago.

However, with the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, some long-simmering problems have gotten worse. Issues like privatization initiatives and lack of transparency between the board and parents are top of mind for some, as others take an interest in other challenges separate from the pandemic. Now that her own kids have experienced every level of Charleston County schools, Erica Cokley has seen first-hand some of the issues she hopes to address, such as the overprivatization of schools she witnesses when charter schools siphon money from smaller public schools, like the ones she grew up in, leading to their eventual closure. John R. Prioleau said he wanted to get further involved in administration after seeing the condition of public school students as the president of his high school’s alumni association. “I think more could be done for our educators, and it’s not that they’re not trying,” Prioleau said. Hunter Schimpff is a former teacher with experience in roles in and out of the classroom, now with his own daughter enrolled in elementary school. Schimpff said he believes local students’ achievement levels are unacceptable, and more work needs to be done to support the county’s students in order to achieve a greater level of success. Francis Marion Beylotte III is again running in West Ashley for the seat he first sought in 2018. With a background in research and as a parent with children in the school system, Beylotte said the current board just isn’t asking the right questions when it comes to analyzing what’s going on around them, particularly when it comes to reviewing various academic models.

North Area

Incumbents Chris Collins and Kevin Hollinshead are seeking reelection, along with three challengers. Hollinshead said he’s not happy with progress made to cut achievement gaps in North Charleston, including Title I schools where low-income students come in with fewer opportunities on day one. He’s also skeptical about Acceleration Zone plans initially set out in the Mission Critical proposals that would strike partnerships with outside groups to operate targeted education programs within the district. Kristen French, a North Charleston mother with a background in scientific research, said if elected, she would devote more resources to neighborhood schools that have fallen out of favor with the push toward programs designed to give parents more choices. “My biggest concern of choice is that it has been used as a way to take resources away from neighborhood schools,” she said, also pointing to “outside operators” tied in with public-private partnerships. Software industry professional Charles Monteith said his interest in local schools started years ago when officials began discussing expanding his child’s Park Circle-area elementary school into a full Montessori program. Describing the inner workings of the school board as “ineffective” and “chaotic,” Monteith said district leaders “didn’t seem to be totally focused on the needs of the students.” Monteith said there needs to be hard metrics and research backing district decisions that affect students of all backgrounds. Courtney Waters, a former teacher who works with Teach for America, said leaders need to step up “to be what children need,” especially when it comes to services. To aid neglected local schools, “Any sort of innovation that comes, that is very much needed, needs to come working in, within and alongside neighborhood schools,” Waters said. Collins did not respond to interview requests.

Downtown

Todd Garrett is not seeking reelection, leaving one downtown seat up for grabs among six candidates. Lauren Herterich, who has been running a nonprofit organization called Kids on Point, said witnessing the deep educational disparities cutting through the district is what pushed her to run for the school board this year. “We have to make sure each school has the support from the district to address all of the emerging needs of our families,” she said. School district reading interventionist Regina Duggins said her experience on the local constituent board has been good, but she wants to further her responsibilities. Building on her own grassroots work, Duggins wants to help residents understand what the constituent board’s role is in local neighborhoods — especially students and parents downtown. Charleston native Lee J. Bennett Jr. said his potential involvement with the school board would be about service. He said his primary concern would be the reentry into classrooms amid the coronavirus pandemic, as well as the effectiveness and efficiency of online instruction. “But, the desire to provide many options for the reentry could later prove some unintended consequences,” he said. “I would look at that as well.” Helen Frazier of Hollywood said, especially in rural areas, proposals to close neighborhood schools force students to face long bus rides and gut communities of cultural landmarks. More family and student input is needed, she said. Tony Lewis is a longtime activist who previously ran for school board. Lewis said he was running this time “to be a voice for those who feel that no one listens.” The Rev. Charles Glover Sr. did not respond to interview requests. Election day is Nov. 3, but absentee by mail and in-person absentee voting has begun. View a sample ballot and find more at scvotes.gov.

BY CITY PAPER STAFF The publication dedicated its coverage to food, music, the arts and local news. It was “more about the fun stuff going on than the bad stuff happening. Not only did we get to observe Charleston transform from a sleepy Southern town into a much-lesssleepy Southern town, but sometimes we had influence on that change too, writing stories and conducting investigations that highlighted issues and problems that weren’t being looked at by the daily newspaper, which at the time was way more entrenched in the South of Broad aristocracy than it is these days.” In October 2019, the owners sold the newspaper to a publishing partnership owned by Ed Bell of Georgetown and Andy Brack of Charleston. “We are incredibly saddened by Noel’s passing,” said Brack, the current publisher. “His energy, determination and spirit to excel continue to permeate the pages of the City Paper — and always will.” Last year in announcing the sale, Mermer said the City Paper had the “best audience in America. This is exciting news for our community because it will allow an experienced local ownership team to take the reins of what has become Charleston’s preferred news outlet for students and young families who want the best local information on arts, culture, music, and more.” McGuire recalled how Mermer was driven to make the paper successful with his team. “A testament to that success is how many employees have been here as long as they have been,” he said. “We used to laugh when the first person was here eight years.” Today, some of the City Paper team have been working at the newspaper for more than 15 years. At the end of his 2018 column, Mermer concluded, “We are extremely grateful to the friends and family who have helped carry us through this terrible past year and a half. We are thankful for all the blessings we have, despite this disease. And we will likely create a way to fundraise to further find a cure to ALS. Thank you all for your love, concern and support.” Funeral arrangements are being handled by J. Henry Stuhr Funeral Home. The family requests no flowers. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to a new foundation that will be announced soon. Noel Stephen Mermer, 1967 to 2020. Rest in peace.

Noel Mermer’s adult beverage of choice was Budweiser. The colder it was, the bigger the smile on his face. Many days after working on the latest edition of the Charleston City Paper, he’d stop by a favorite watering hole, have a couple of drinks with friends and talk over the day. There would be big laughs and snarky jokes, interspersed occasionally with a dose of the serious. Longtime friend Raymond McGuire, once a bartender at the Bubble Room, often would welcome Mermer, the newspaper’s publisher, and co-owners Stephanie Barna, the editor, and Blair Barna, the advertising director. “Stephanie would drink martinis and Noel would have Budweisers,” said McGuire, named the city’s best barMERMER tender by the newspaper in 1999 and 2000. Noel Stephen Mermer, 53, died late Saturday after a long battle with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease. He is survived by his wife Christine, and sons, Noel and Bennett. He also is survived by a sister, Sheila Mutz (Bryce) of Atlanta, Ga., and nephews, Bryce and Blake Mutz, also of Atlanta, and his in-laws, Suzanne Boren of Mount Pleasant, and Cecil (Cindy) Boren of Greensboro, N.C. “As a highly active, Type-A personality, I have to say it’s been hell on earth. ALS sucks,” Mermer wrote in December 2018 when he described his battle with the disease. “A motor neuron disease, it affects the function of the nerves and muscles, and the way it affects each person varies. There are two types of ALS, sporadic and familial. I have the sporadic version, meaning my two sons are not at risk genetically. “We finally told our boys in July (2017), when their ages were 9 and 12. They have emerged as even better versions of themselves as their helpfulness, leadership, compassion and kindness have become even stronger. We are both very proud of what wonderful young men they are and how much they help.” Mermer and the Barnas started their “scrappy little newspaper” in 1997 at the dawn of the modern Charleston renaissance. “Rents were cheap, bars were open all night long, and Granny’s Goodies — our first advertiser — was a mecca of hippie weirdness,” Mermer and the Barnas wrote last year.

CHARLESTON LAUNCHES SMALL BUSINESS LOAN FUND USING CARES ACT MONEY

Charleston Mayor John Tecklenburg and Charleston LDC CEO Steve Saltzman and other local groups announced an $850,000 revolving loan fund to help businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The city of Charleston was awarded the funds in partnership with community lender LDC under the federal CARES Act to supplement the city’s existing Economic Development Administration revolving loan fund. Over the past 20 years, the agency has loaned more than $4 million to small local businesses. As a tourism-anchored city, Charleston has felt the economic impact of coronavirus-related public health precautions that triggered an overnight halt in travel to the Holy City. Flights into Charleston airports have begun to recover, but were still more than 30 percent down in August compared to 2019, according to the Charleston Aviation Authority. “These additional funds will be of enormous assistance to small businesses across the city, including women and minority owned businesses that were left out by traditional lending institutions during the height of the pandemic,” according to Ruth Jordan, the city’s minority- and women-owned business enterprise. Initial loans can range from $10,000 to $100,000 and can be used to cover expenses related to a variety of COVID-19 related activities, like hiring and retaining employees, developing websites, remote service technologies, outdoor service, delivery vehicle service and compliance with COVID-19 safety precautions. Loan repayments will return to the revolving fund to be re-allocated to local businesses. Business owners can begin to apply for a loan by contacting the Charleston LDC at info@charlestonldc.org or calling (843) 973-7298. —Skyler Baldwin

SC POET LAUREATE RESIGNS, SAYS POSITION NEEDS MORE SUPPORT

Marjory Wentworth has resigned from her position as South Carolina’s poet laureate after 17 years. In a letter dated Sept. 28 informing Gov. Henry McMaster, Wentworth noted her resignation was effective Oct. 1. Wentworth, who was appointed poet laureate for life by former Gov. Mark Sanford in 2003, left the position with the hope that the state will put new blood into the job. “This really should be a rotating position,” Wentworth told the City Paper Friday morning, citing a proposal to appoint a new state poet laureate according to a defined term. “It’s an awkward thing because it’s a great honor.” She was the sixth person to serve as the state’s poet laureate, created by the legislature in 1934. Wentworth admitted she felt a little burned out by the position and suggested that it needs to be revamped. “It’s something that needs to be supported through the Governor’s Office,” she said, adding that Sanford was the last state leader to bolster a poet laureate. In 2015, former Gov. Nikki Haley was sworn in for her second term without the poet laureate’s customary recitation — a spokesman said the program was full. A spokesman for McMaster did not reply to an email regarding Wentworth’s resignation. During Wentworth’s time as poet laureate, she published several books of poetry, including “Despite Gravity” and “The Endless Repetition of

Andrew Allen

an Ordinary Miracle.” In 2016, Wentworth, author Herb Frazier and historian Bernard Powers published We are Charleston: Tragedy and Triumph at Mother Emanuel, recounting the 2015 Emanuel AME Church shooting and the days following. Wentworth lives in Mount Pleasant and is currently an educator at the College of Charleston. —Heath Ellison

WITH CENSUS WRAPPED, REDISTRICTING UP NEXT

As the U.S. Census comes to a close, state lawmakers are readying for a decennial undertaking in 2021: Picking their voters. “We believe that, perhaps, South Carolina’s biggest problem in redistricting is not the protection of party but the protection of incumbents,” said Lynn Teague of Columbia, vice president of issues and action for the League of Women Voters of S.C. “One way or another, it leads to very few competitive districts.” With only 18 legislative seats seen as competitive in November out of 170 seats up for reelection, Teague said too many are settled in the primary or fail to field a challenger at all. “People should not be drawing their own lines,” Teague said.

Redrawing of state and congressional districts usually begins in March or April after the 10-year census within the state legislature. More than 98 percent of households nationwide were counted as of Sept. 29, with 96.5 percent of S.C. households responding. The state uses a list of criteria to draw the districts, including compactness, contiguity, preservation of political subdivisions, preservation of communities of interest, preservation of the cores of prior districts and avoidance of pairing incumbents. State law does not require public access or input, but maps can be subjected to gubernatorial veto. The last redistricting process began in April 2011 and ended in July 2011. —Lindsay Street

TRUMP MEMO KILLS OFFSHORE WIND IN SC, ENERGY GROUP SAYS

A presidential memorandum that halts offshore drilling and testing off South Carolina waters also puts an end to the burgeoning offshore wind industry, clean energy advocates say. The memo initially seemed to be good news for conservationists: President Donald Trump signed earlier this month a memo halting new leases for offshore drilling exploration for South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida from July 1, 2022, until June 30, 2032. Sure, it could easily be undone with another memo, it doesn’t apply to any current leases already issued and it wouldn’t stop seismic testing completely. But it was something and appeared to be in the direction South Carolina officials have pushed: putting an end to chants of “drill, baby, drill” in Palmetto waters. The Southern Alliance for Clean Energy’s (SACE) Chris Carnevale of Charleston said he was “surprised” by the moratorium. “When that came out, my brain was not even thinking about offshore wind,” he said. Turns out, that got banned too, Bloomberg News reported. “The withdrawal includes all energy leasing, including conventional and renewable energy, beginning on July 1, 2022,” Bureau of Ocean Energy Management spokeswoman Tracey Moriarty told Bloomberg News. South Carolina has been hailed as a potential offshore wind energy leader in recent years. A 2019 report said the state could land a $70 billion industry, create thousands of jobs, and generate more power than its consumers needed. “South Carolina has worked for over a decade to get prepared for offshore wind energy,” Carnevale said. “We have a number of businesses in South Carolina that are in the wind energy supply chain.” North Charleston is home to a wind turbine research center with Clemson University, making it a key spot for wind power innovation. “Delaying or halting development of local offshore wind energy could mean potentially less of a developing local market for the facility,” said SACE’s Jennifer S. Rennicks of Asheville. Carnevale said the Trump memo shows that elections have consequences. “(The ban) can be undone as easily as it was done,” Carnevale said. “With a stroke of a pen, he can just change it … It is in the hands of the president.” —Lindsay Street

Avery’s New Leader Tamara Butler hopes to cultivate communities as executive director BY HEATH ELLISON

Provided

TAMARA BUTLER GREW UP NEAR CHARLESTON AND DID PART OF HER STUDIES AT CofC

Members of staff continued providing research and education opportunities, but they are excited to add Butler to the team, said outreach assistant Courtney Hicks. “When we met Dr. Butler, we automatically knew that she was going to be our director,” Hicks said. “Being from the Lowcountry, already having that Southern decorum and grace, we knew that she was not only able to help guide us, in terms of what we do, but also how we interact with the community that we serve.” “The thing that I think makes Avery so unique is that it’s multi-layered,” Butler said. “You can walk into the replica of the 19th century classroom. If you’re feeling lucky, you can dig in the boxes in the archives, you can talk to the archivists. You can bring your family and you can take a tour of a building that’s been standing since the 1800s. It’s always been a space that’s been about teaching and reminding and celebrating.” Avery’s work aligns with the big questions being asked about American fundamentals, after a summer of protests and the surge in interest in antiracism. But Butler’s vision hasn’t wavered. “There’s a very key part to antiracism that I think people leave out, that Avery has always been at the forefront [of], and that’s anti-Blackness,” she said. The real test of antiracism, she said, is a willingness to have open and educated conversations. If someone is committed to discussing racism, Butler said, they can “go to Avery, find those materials, be in conversation, dig in the archives, attend the digital classrooms, read the books.”

Tamara Butler took over as the executive director for the Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture in August, amid a year of sweeping civil rights protests across the nation and in Charleston. During a time when antiracist literature is climbing bestseller lists, Butler hopes the research institute can continue to provide community education for all people. Butler was born and raised on Johns Island, immersed from the beginning in African American history and culture, she said. Upon attending college in New Orleans for biochemistry, an African American studies professor taught her about the historical significance of the Lowcountry’s sea islands. “[They] helped me see that the sea islands is a place that has been studied and can be studied and has a rich history, which just reinforces something that my family told me,” she recalled. After Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, Butler returned to South Carolina to complete her degree at the College of Charleston. “I started studying more things that had to do with Black studies and then I found myself back here,” she said. “My path was already lined up.” As the new executive director, Butler’s vision for Avery is to help cultivate communities. “The original mission of Avery was to train critical educators,” she said. Butler added that the research center is looking for a variety of different ways to prepare educators to discuss Lowcountry history, “from the family historians, to the people who love to learn, to the K-12 educators.” Instead of creating a uniform curriculum for people looking deeper into local Black history, Butler said Avery wants to ask schools and community members what they need. “How can we help teachers identify the local Black stories?” she asked. “We have so many people who want to give oral histories; how can we use those as a curriculum? How can we invest in ways to bring in speakers?” COVID-19 has forced Avery to go digital in many ways, but the leadership plans to expand its virtual classrooms in the coming months with conversations that highlight Black women and items in Avery’s archives. “We’re looking to launch our website soon,” she said. “We’ll have a brand new website that will allow people to dig into the archives without coming in and sticking their heads in the boxes.” In the 16 months since Avery’s previous director, Patricia Williams Lessane, took another job at Morgan State University, a two-year, $2.5 million renovation of the center’s historic Bull Street facility has wrapped up, adding a new roof, windows and HVAC system.

“Liberty Bell” is an augmented reality project at the Battery through next year BY TYNISHIA BROWN

CHARLESTON CITY PAPER 10.07.2020

Like many symbols of the American Revolution, the Liberty Bell is a symbol of independence and civilian freedom in the United States. The cracked Liberty Bell on display in Philadelphia reflects a larger truth: that freedom remains distorted and inconsistent in our country to this day. The imagery of the cracked Liberty Bell inspired Nancy Baker Baker Cahill’s project, “Liberty Bell,” currently on display in Charleston through July 2021. You can find “Liberty Bell” at the Battery, near White Point Garden and facing Fort Sumter. “From its origins in American history, ‘liberty’ was only available to a certain demographic and came at great expense to others,” Baker Cahill said. “You can’t have a conversation about freedom and not talk about the history of slavery and inequality in the United States. A bell can be a warning or a celebration; something spiritual or a wordless means of communication. In an age of pandemic, surveillance, injustice and disinformation, who is actually free? That’s the conversation we need to have.” “Liberty Bell” is an augmented reality (AR) project that can be viewed through a phone app called 4th Wall. The AR drawing appears as an animated 3-D piece. Baker Cahill partnered with the Art Production Fund, a national nonprofit that commissions “ambitious” public art projects for the concept. Locally, Baker Cahill partnered with the Center for Heirs Property Preservation to present the work. The image of “Liberty Bell” features entangled ribbons that are red, white and

blue. Baker Cahill said that while she came up with the idea for “Liberty Bell,” she also collaborated with AR techs to make the imagery and sound come to life for viewers to experience. You can visit “Liberty Bell” now through July 2021. While Baker Baker Cahill prefers the viewer to experience “Liberty Bell” in person, she briefly spoke about the detail on the inner workings of the project, in particular, the bell sounds the viewer experiences. Each bell sound denotes collected history from different parts of the world. You can find Baker Cahill’s “Liberty Bell” in several cities known for historical relevance in the United States, including Boston, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. Many of America’s first enslaved Africans were forced into the country through Charleston’s slave ports, making the Battery and the Charleston Harbor a relevant place to view “Liberty Bell.” Baker Cahill said it is best to encounter the artwork closest to the fence directly in front of the Confederate Defenders statue at White Point Garden. The artwork is cleverly placed in front of the statue, where Confederate flag supporters meet every Sunday. The program adjusts to the position of the sun, so you should still be able to view the work even on cloudy days. Baker Cahill emphasized her choice in positioning the design toward Fort Sumter, where the Civil War began. When we checked out “Liberty Bell,” we noticed how the bell sounds seem to be connected effortlessly with nature. Baker Cahill said the intertwining of the ribbons

resembles our connections with each other as individuals in this country. In the artwork, each ribbon sporadically rose and fell on its own, showing a symbolic dissonance between people. There is a sound similar to static disturbance when viewing the artwork that creates the illusion of turbulence — embodying bell’s crack. As for Baker Cahill’s upcoming projects? “I’m open to collaborating with art that stands for a meaning,” she said. She also reiterated that she “doesn’t have all the answers and doesn’t pretend to.” In the journey toward fixing the country’s race relations and environmental issues, Baker Cahill stated she is open to listening and learning how she can make a change and help where she can.

Charleston’s favorite prankster Bill Murray got a cease and desist letter from the lawyers for rock band the Doobie Brothers, and it exceeds expectations. The law firm King, Holmes, Paterno & Soriano called on Murray to no longer use the Doobie’s classic “Listen to the Music” in ads for his William Murray-brand golf polo called Zero Hucks Given. More importantly, they take time to dunk on the president and quote French existentialist Jean Paul Sartre. The letter was reported in The New York Times and elsewhere. “Given that you haven’t paid to use it, maybe you should change the company name to ‘Zero Bucks Given,’” lawyer Peter Paterno wrote. Paterno doesn’t get too specific about the extent of the law that Murray allegedly broke because he’s “too lazy to look up” the subparagraph in the United States Copyright Act. But, he does tell Murray that he has already earned “eternal damnation” for Garfield and Garfield: A Tale of Two Kitties. The letter also references that Murray is using their other clients’ music for his ads, as well, but doesn’t give any specific artists. The law firm bringing charges against Murray has pretty impressive credentials, representing Metallica in their landmark case against Napster and Pharrell Williams in the “Blurred Lines” copyright infringement case. To be fair, Murray and the Wu-Tang Clan are on pretty good terms last time we checked. Why he didn’t use “Protect Ya Neck” or “C.R.E.A.M.” to sell golf shirts, we’ll never know. —Heath Ellison For daily updates, check out the Arts+Movies section at charlestoncitypaper.com.

UNLIKE CONTEMPORARY SENSATIONALIST DOCS, THE WAR AT HOME PRESENTS INFO WITHOUT PREACHING

one almost weirdly prescient moment involving President Nixon ignoring student protestors to watch a football game. The War at Home is a wonderful documentary. I can see why it made such a splash when it was initially released. I can also understand why some viewers may be turned off by the lack of sensationalistic melodrama they may have become accustomed to over recent years. While the doc was once merely a time capsule showing how protests took us to a better place, the 2020 reality has transformed this piece of history into a renewed call for action. It deserves to be rediscovered.

Some things shouldn’t be relevant anymore. At least, we hope they wouldn’t be. The exhausting, hopeless conclusion of the BBC’s 1984 anti-nuke film, Threads, seems like it shouldn’t be a possibility anymore. The defeated mania that looms over Elia Kazan’s A Face in the Crowd shouldn’t feel more relevant today than it did when first released in 1957 but I’ll be damned if it doesn’t. It would seem like Stanley Kubrick making bleak jokes and observations about the futility of war in Paths of Glory, Full Metal Jacket and Dr. Strangelove would, in an idyllic world, shut down the argument for endless conflicts — but apparently it didn’t take. Watching the 4K restoration of Glenn Silber and Barry Alexander Brown’s 1979 documentary, The War at Home, I couldn’t help but think about two documentaries I’d watched recently, and how different this ‘70s documentary was from the contemporary films I’ve seen. The first was a solo screening of the pro-Trump, QAnonfriendly documentary, American Deep State. For over two hours, I felt my little liberal synapses explode as I watched the hastily thrown together film drone on about Barack Hussein Obama, the deep state and ultimately, about Trump’s greatness. It was not so much a documentary as it was an amateurish creepy ramble. A couple weeks later, I saw Jimmy It doles out the information Carter: Rock & Roll President, a movie that celebrated and chronicled our and, like many docs in an 39th president’s ascension and the era before reality TV and binding ties of music. I definitely liked it way more than American 24 hour news channels, Deep State; but in the end, it didn’t doesn’t condescend. rise to more than a decent way to I really appreciated that. pass a couple hours. It was a pleasant movie that only reaffirmed my positive opinion of Carter. Both films, one more grossly than the other, essentially adored their subject and spoke to their base. The definition of documentary has expanded. Depending on your perspective, you could say it has evolved or devolved. Some documentaries, like the Fran Lebowitz doc Public Speaking, are entertaining personality profiles. Some, like Ava DuVernay’s 13th, hold up an unflinching mirror, calling for change, while others, like Jiro Dreams of Sushi can simply make you hungry. Some, like Silber and Brown’s film, lean more in the cold observation category, leaving you, the viewer, to make up your own mind. The War at Home begins with newsreel footage from the early ‘60s. Next we see a young man being interviewed as he burns his draft card followed by a montage of protestors holding signs like “Get Out of Vietnam,” “Support Southern Sit-Ins” and “No Nation Can Win a Nuclear War” as a Bob Dylan song plays underneath. From there we watch war footage, news footage of former presidents and interviews with anti-war protestors in the late ’70s recounting when they joined the movement. We’re even treated to Lyndon B. Johnson’s popular, gamechanging “Daisy” political ad. What will stick out to the viewer will be the overall lack of a bombastic soundtrack or rapid edits while tracking the growing nonviolence movement and civil disobedience. The documentary doles out information and, like many docs in an era before reality TV and 24-hour news channels, doesn’t condescend. I really appreciated that. There were quite a few recollections that are quietly jolting, including

A stretch of renovated freedman’s cottages on Jackson Street are home to Tobin’s Market, a new counter-service restaurant specializing in Asian-inspired food, local beverages and live music. Brothers Danny and Mike May are leading the kitchen churning out sandwiches and salads during the day and charcuterie boards, bao buns and tuna tartare at night. “They redid these and made them the Jackson Street Cottages in 2017,” said Danny. “[The property’s owners] wanted to do a restaurant concept, so they asked us to come in and said build a kitchen and let’s get rolling.” The cottages in the peninsula’s Eastside neighborhood were constructed in the 1880s as housing for formerly enslaved people of African descent. The four one-room houses are listed on the National Register of Historic Places and ranked as local preservationists’ highest priorities for saving in recent years. Patrons enter the small market to place orders before heading outside, where the ambiance is different from most downtown restaurants. There’s bar seating, chairs and cozy couches on the expansive Astroturfcovered back patio that also boasts a small stage for musicians. It’s airy and casual with a refined touch that’s highlighted by the food and beverage offering. “They flew me out here from Chicago. I was doing fine dining the last five years of my life,” said Mike, who worked at a high-end seafood restaurant in downtown Chicago before arriving in Charleston. He’s spent

Geechie Boy Mill is transitioning its brand identity to Marsh Hen Mill three months after the company announced it would change its name. The company supplies grits, cornmeal and other grains to restaurants in Charleston and around the country. Owners Greg and Betsy Johnsman acquired Geechie Boy Mill in 2003 and kept the name intact. Over the summer, the couple chose to change the name amid criticism that included accusations of cultural appropriation. In the Lowcountry, Gullah Geechee refers to the people and culture of those descended from enslaved Africans who settled in tight-knit communities along the coast of the Carolinas and into Florida. According to a press release, the new name is a nod to the couple’s own family history. “On a trip to her family farm on Wadmalaw he was introduced to the sea islands, rivers, marshes and wildlife … Combining his knowledge of milling from a third-generation miller and her love for farming, the new name reflects their beginnings.” —Parker Milner

time at 5Church and the Park Cafe prior to Tobin’s Market’s September opening. “We want to stay as local as we can and be very community-driven,” Mike said. “Because of how it looks, we try to put our dishes as the best representation of the ambiance here.” Look for edible handhelds like street tacos, bao buns and burritos along with refined fare like tuna tartare and fresh lump crab dip with wonton chips. Beverages run the gamut with several local draft beers and reasonably priced bottles of wine. “When you come here and walk into the market, it just hits you that it’s a little more classy than you might have expected,” Danny said. Danny, a former Revelry Brewing bartender and full-time musician, has local bands like John Heinsohn and The Destinators entertaining the dinner crowd nightly. “The Charleston music community is a family itself, but there are these little pockets where there’s groups that stick together,” he said. “It’s been great for us.” Danny and Mike said there will be changes at the restaurant once they settle into the space. They eventually plan to add graband-go breakfast, a mobile bar and indoor seating. Starting Oct. 13, they also plan to test out a Tuesday night tasting menu with three courses for $35. Each week will have a theme, with the first dinner featuring Italian dishes like butternut squash risotto, porchetta with salsa verde and coconut panna

The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (DNR) opened the 20202021 season for the commercial and recreational harvest of oysters and clams 30 minutes before sunrise on Thursday. The season will run until May 15, 2021, according to a DNR press release. Approximately 50 percent of South Carolina’s 90 or so culture permits — harvesting areas designated by perimeter boundaries — are divided among individuals and corporations while the other half are owned by the state. Lowcountry Oyster Co. founder Trey McMillan said the biggest difference in this year’s shellfish season will be the fact that “there are hardly any state grounds open this year” due to overharvesting by commercial license holders in the past few years. The season technically goes until May, but McMillan said it effectively ends in January for commercial harvesters. That’s because the harvesting season is broken into trimesters — there will be three state grounds open during the first trimester, seven open during the second and just one open during the last 10-week period. According to the SCDNR press release, 52 state-managed shellfish grounds are open for commercial harvesting, with an additional 33 managed exclusively for recreational harvesting. In total, there will be 1,210 acres of state shellfish grounds open to harvest this season. For more info, visit dnr.sc.gov. —PM

CHARLESTON CITY PAPER 10.07.2020

Mama Ana’s brings classic Colombian arepas to the Lowcountry BY PARKER MILNER The pandemic provided food and beverage industry veteran Ana Alexandra the time to start a concept churning out arepas, a traditional Colombian treat rarely found in the Lowcountry. These Colombian cornmeal cakes are made using water, masa flour and salt and can be baked, fried or grilled. They come in different shapes and sizes and are traditionally found in Venezuela and Colombia, where Alexandra’s mother grew up. “My mom was born and raised in a little town outside of Cali, Colombia, and lived there until she was 23,” said Alexandra, who moved to Charleston in 2013. “I used to go there as a kid, and eating that food was always one of my favorite things.” Alexandra said only a handful of Charleston food trucks serve arepas, mostly as side dishes, and she couldn’t even find a frozen version at the local specialty grocery store. So she took matters into her own hands. “During the quarantine, I started cooking Colombian food because I had the extra time,” said Alexandra, who found her initial arepa recipe online. “To be honest, it’s three ingredients: water, salt and masa, and you kind of just have to nail the hydration and the humidity,” she said. You might recognize Alexandra from her Instagram account @beergirlmeetsworld where she chronicles her adventures at local bars and breweries. She’s also worked at Daps Breakfast & Imbibe, Holy City Brewing, Freehouse Brewing, Melfi’s, Little Jack’s Tavern and most recently Herd Provisions, where she first served her arepas during a staff family meal in July. She received a five-star review from her coworkers, so when Herd Provisions was forced to temporarily close due to the pandemic, she turned arepa-making into a small business, launching Mama Ana’s in mid-July. Alexandra makes her arepas each week in the Herd Provisions kitchen before selling them online for pickup or delivery. The first few batches of Mama Ana’s arepas, which are pan fried in a cast iron skillet, were relatively simple, but she quickly expanded the operation to include fillings like guava and cheese (Bocadillo)

and sweet pepper relish. She later added Herd Provisions meat to the menu with her Desayuno (sausage and cheese) arepa. Order three Mama Ana’s arepas for $13, six for $25 or 12 for $45. She’s also selling homemade jams, two rotating meat sauces and crispy arepitas chips. To place an order, send Alexandra a direct message to her Instagram account @mamaanasarepas, or visit one of her pop-ups at local

establishments like Two Blokes Brewing or Fatty’s Beer Works, where she’ll be on Oct. 10 from 3-7 p.m. “I’m really kind of just winging it,” she said. “I feel lucky that I get to eat arepas everyday.” For more information and to place an order, follow Mama Ana’s on Instagram @mamaanasarepas.

Free Will Astrology ARIES (March 21-April 19): “A person’s best ally is someone who takes care of herself,” says actress Susan Clark. I heartily agree. The people with whom you can cultivate the most resilient bonds and most interesting synergy are those who have a high degree of self-sufficiency — those who take rigorous responsibility for themselves and treat themselves with tender compassion. In the coming weeks, Aries, I think it’s especially important for you to emphasize relationships with allies who fit that description. Bonus! Their exemplary self-care will influence you to vigorously attend to your own self-care. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): According to my reading of the astrological potentials, the coming weeks will be an excellent time for you to take a vacation in reverse. What’s that? It’s when you devote yourself to renewing and reinvigorating your relationship with the work you love. You intensify your excitement for the vocation or job or long-term quest that teaches you important life lessons. You apply yourself with sublime enthusiasm to honing the discipline you need to fulfill the assignments you came to earth to accomplish. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “If you are not having fun you are doing something wrong,” said comedian Groucho Marx. He was exaggerating so as to drive home his humorous point, but his idea contains some truth — and will be especially applicable to you in the immediate future. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you have a temporary exemption from feeling frantically dour and unpleasantly dutiful. As crazy as the world is right now, you have a cosmic mandate to enjoy more playtime and amusement than usual. The rest of us are depending on you to provide us with doses of casual cheer. CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Leave the door open for the unknown, the door into the dark,” writes Cancerian author Rebecca Solnit, adding, “That’s where the most important things come from.” I think this is good advice for you in the coming weeks. What exactly does it mean? How and why should you do what she advises? My first suggestion is to reframe your conception of the unknown and the dark. Imagine them as the source of everything new; as the place from which the future comes; as the origin of creative changes. Then instruct your imagination to be adventurous as it explores brewing possibilities in the dark and the unknown. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “If something comes to life in others because of you, then you have made an approach to immortality,” wrote author Norman Cousins. Whether or not you believe the “immortality” part of his formulation, I’m sure you understand how fabulous it is when you help activate beauty and vitality in someone. You may even feel that inspiring people to unleash their dormant potential is one of the most noble pleasures possible. I bring these thoughts to your attention, Leo, because I suspect that you now have exceptional power to perform services like these for your allies, friends, and loved ones. I dare you to make it one of your top priorities. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “The messiah will come when we don’t need him any more,” said author Franz Kafka. In that spirit, and in alignment with current astrological omens, I will tell you that the precise help you wish you could attract into your life will show up as soon as you make initial efforts to provide that help to yourself. Here are some additional nuances: The gift or blessing you think you need most will be offered to you by fate once you begin giving that gift or blessing to yourself. A rescuer will arrive not too long after you take steps to rescue yourself. You’ll finally figure out how to make practical use of a key lesson as you’re teaching that lesson to someone you care for. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran author Ursula K. Le Guin said that we don’t just naturally know how to create our destinies. It takes research and hard work. “All of us have to learn how to invent our lives, make them up, imagine them,” she wrote. “We need to be taught these skills; we need guides to show us how. If we don’t, our lives get made up for us by other people.” I bring this to your attention, Libra, because the coming weeks will be an

By Rob Brezsny

excellent time to upgrade and refine your mastery of these essential powers. What can you do to enhance your capacity to invent your life? Which teachers and information sources might be helpful? SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In 1984, hip hop group Run-DMC was the first to achieve a gold record in their genre, meaning they sold more than 500,000 albums. Their next album sold over a million. They were pioneers. In 1986, legendary producer Rick Rubin encouraged them to do a remake of “Walk This Way,” a song by the hard rock band Aerosomith. The members of Run-DMC didn’t want to do it; they felt the tune was in a genre too unlike their own. But Rubin eventually convinced them, and the cross-pollination was phenomenally successful. The Run-DMC-meets-Aerosmith collaboration launched a new genre that sold very well. The song was later voted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In this spirit, and in accordance with current cosmic rhythms, I urge you to try a bold hybrid or two yourself, Scorpio: blends of elements or influences that may seem a bit improbable. They could ultimately yield big dividends. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You Sagittarians periodically go through phases when you specialize in stirring up fresh intuitions. I mean, you’re always one of the zodiac’s Intuition Champions, but during these special times, your flow becomes an overflow. You have a knack for seeking and finding visions of the interesting future; you get excited by possibilities that are on the frontiers of your confidence. From what I can tell, your life in recent weeks has been bringing you these delights — and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Take maximum advantage. Aggressively gather in the gifts being offered by your inner teacher. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Calling on my expert knowledge of healing language and imaginative psychology, I have formulated a mantra for you to use in the next six weeks. I suggest you say it five times after you wake up, and again at mid-day, and before dinner, and before sleep. It should help keep you intimately aligned with the dynamic groove that the cosmos will be conspiring to provide for you. For best results, picture yourself as glowing inside with the qualities named in the mantra. Here it is: StrongBrightFree ClearBoldBrisk DeepNimbleKind AdroitSteadyWarm. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The Grammy Museum in Los Angeles features displays that extol the musicians who’ve won Grammy Awards over the years. A few years ago, a distinctly unfamous musician named Paz Dylan made professional-looking fake posters touting his own magnificent accomplishments, and managed to sneakily hang them on the museum walls. They remained there for a month before anyone noticed. I’m going to encourage you to engage in similar gamesmanship in the coming weeks, Aquarius. It’ll be a favorable time to use ingenuity and unconventional approaches to boost your confidence and enhance your reputation. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “Relationships never stop being a work in progress,” writes author Nora Roberts. That’s bad news and good news. It’s bad news because even for the most loving bond, you must tirelessly persist in the challenging task of reinventing the ways the two of you fit together. It’s good news because few activities can make you more emotionally intelligent and soulfully wise than continually reinventing the ways the two of you fit together. I bring these thoughts to your attention because the coming weeks will be a fertile time for such daunting and rewarding work.

pulse THE REVOLUTION IS STILL NOT TELEVISED ON BRANDON NOIR’S NEW SINGLE

Opening Doors

Local rapper Brandon Noir released a new single, “Blood on the Streets” on Sept. 25. The song starts with a dexterous guitar line. When Noir comes in with vocals, his voice takes the lead with heavy bass and electronic backing. At the end of the song, Noir lets the instrumentals come back and he closes with that same guitar sound. “Blood on the Streets” discusses the current political climate in the United States. The song sends a powerful message with lyrics like, “We frustrated, sick of hearing lies, want to start a revolution and it won’t be televised.” The song directly correlates to the Black Lives Matter movement as mentioned in hashtags on Noir’s social media. “I ain’t political, but sometimes you gotta make your voice heard,” Noir wrote on Instagram. “Blood on the Streets” is the second single Noir has put out recently following “DRMRS” featuring Tappster Beats.

Orange Doors’ new album is an unpredictable ride BY VINCENT HARRIS

DEAD SWELLS DANCES WITH FRIENDS IN NEW VIDEO, ‘TIGER STRIPES’

Ruta Smith

THE ORANGE DOORS CREATED A COLORFUL WORLD ON THEIR LATEST LP

that Slaphappy sounds as big as a marching band. Every song on the album is like an aural mosaic; you can hear something new every time you listen to it. According to Russell, each track has at least 50 different layers of vocals, synths and field recordings. “We both tried to put a lot of ambient sounds in the background to fill it out,” Ewens added, “and in order to get that bigger brass band sound, we’d have to do like four tuba tracks and six trombone tracks.” The musical alchemists who form the nucleus of Orange Doors met in high school at the Governor’s School in Greenville. Ewens and Russell’s friendship has led to a prolific sixyear run of releases. Starting with 2014’s Silver Sun, the band released nine other albums and singles leading up to Slaphappy. Given the level of work the duo puts into their recordings, it seems fair to ask if that meticulous approach ever leads them to burnout. But Russell said that

their method actually keeps them from getting tired of their songs. “Every time we add something to it, it’s more exciting, because it will completely change how that section of the song sounds,” he said. “And when you start thinking of other things that could go into that new layer that you added, you realize it could work in a different section of the song or even a part of a different song.” So if these two are adding stuff to a song that they thought they finished a year ago, how do they know when they’re actually finished? “It’s done when we stop working on it,” Ewens laughed. “When we feel like that’s enough.” As studio bound as Slaphappy seems, the five-piece version of Orange Doors has been playing most of the songs live for a couple of years now. So whenever they’re able to play live again, Ewens said that you can expect to see them playing a lot. “It’s not a very advantageous time to release a record,” he said. “But as soon as we’re able to play shows, we’re planning on touring pretty hard.”

Psychedelic band Dead Swells released a music video for its single “Tiger Stripes” on Sept. 27. The video features vocalist Paul Nederostek, Kelly Morris of rock band the Mobros and Rialto Row producer Wolfgang Zimmerman dressed from head to toe in patterns, prints and blazers. The visual’s vibe matches the song perfectly. The funky beat takes over every aspect of the video from the fashion to the feel-good dance moves. The energy is infectious. “Tiger Stripes” is the first new single Dead Swells released since its 2020 selftitled album. Dead Swells was recorded largely by Nederostek during his quarantine isolation, he told the City Paper in August. Zimmerman co-produced the newest album, adding those signature Rialto Row textures to its space-rock influenced sound. The video can be seen at charlestoncitypaper.com or youtube.com. —HM

Slaphappy, the new album by Charleston rock band Orange Doors, is perhaps the most aptly named release of 2020. It’s a startling, disorienting funhouse where nothing is as it seems, and everything is constantly shifting, stretching out, contracting or transforming. Take “No Following,” the opening track: It’s 2 minutes and 40 seconds of fieldrecorded industrial clanging, psychedelic sound effects and demonic moaning that suddenly explodes into a Beach Boys-style crescendo before an extended fade-out with a wailing brass. That’s merely the intro to a multilayered maelstrom of an album featuring choppy guitars, offbeat percussion, angular song structures and unexpected tonal shifts. You’ll find hard-rock, indie-pop, psychedelic madness and unwieldy horns in this music. It simultaneously makes no sense and all the sense in the world. It’s the work of mad musical scientists throwing everything but the kitchen sink at their songs but somehow making them infectiously melodic at the same time. It’s demented and beautiful. And that’s just how multi-instrumentalists Ian Russell and Michael Ewens intended it. They spent the last two or three years meticulously layering and constructing the 13 songs on Slaphappy, creating the illusion of chaos through careful composition. “I think it’s definitely an intentional thing to try to make the songs different by having an unpredictability to them,” said Ewens, who generally handles bass and keyboards. “It makes it more fun and engaging for us to play as well.” In terms of influences, the duo cites acts like Radiohead, Neutral Milk Hotel and the Dodos, but Russell also draws on his time in a marching band. Wait, what? “I did marching band for four years,” said Russell, who sings and plays guitar and drums. “And I took a lot of inspiration from the way that music was written. I kind of tried to put that into this album. For example, with the brass hits, we’ll have big builds, a big melody and then it will switch to something else. There are a whole lot of different rhythms going on in a marching band, and it’s basically about tension and release.” One thing’s for sure: At the very least, Russell and Ewens spent a lot of time making sure
