Three Charleston City Council incumbents face challengers Nov. 2

Off-year elections set tone in Charleston, Mount Pleasant

By Sam Spence Municipal elections set for Nov. 2 could bring new leadership on Charleston City Council as it grapples with major infrastructure projects and in Mount Pleasant, where development remains a hot-button issue.

Charleston City Paper asked candidates for office in Charleston, Mount Pleasant and Summerville to complete a short questionnaire about the issues. Those responses and City Paper Editorial Board endorsements are available to read at charlestoncitypaper.com.

Challenges in Charleston

Incumbent Charleston City Councilmen Dudley Gregorie, Kevin Shealy and Mike Seekings are unopposed this year, meaning

they’ll return for another four-year term.

Downtown, District 4 Councilman Robert Mitchell faces a challenge from retired marine engineer Tim Weber. Mitchell has represented District 4 since 2002.

A recently retired housing counselor, Mitchell says his constituent services set him apart on council. Being its senior-most member, he says, affords him a greater amount of respect and influence. Recently, he was among the minority of council members who supported a report by the city’s Special Commission on Equity, Inclusion, and Racial Conciliation to root out structural racism in local government.

Weber has put a focus on violent crime at the center of his campaign. An Eastside resident who also owns a handful of rental properties in the area, Weber says stronger local leadership is needed to bring down murder

and violent crime figures. Charleston did see an increase in violence over 2020, part of a statewide jump in violent crime.

District 10 Councilman Harry Griffin, who works for a cargo shipping company, is finishing up his first term on council, where he’s been its most critical member. That outspokenness landed Griffin in trouble last year when he initially committed to speak at a protest against city leadership attended by members of the Proud Boys extremist group. Griffin later apologized but was remove from the city’s equity commission.

In recent months, he’s remained critical of city COVID-19 protocols and voted with the majority of council against the equity commission report, though he says he agrees with most of its contents.

Recent investments to add a berth, increase cargo capacity and deepen Charleston harbor provide critical opportunities for the Port of Charleston, said Jim Newsome, the president and CEO of the S.C. Ports Authority who announced his retirement during an annual report card Oct. 19 about the agency.

Newsome has led an unprecedented port expansion since he joined the agency about 13 years ago. The $1 billion Phase One of Hugh K. Leatherman Melvin Terminal opened in March 2021, marking the first container terminal to open in the U.S. in more than a decade and the only new container terminal capacity planned in the U.S. until 2030.

Barbara Melvin, who currently serves as Newsome’s second-in-command, will take over port operations July 1. She will be the first female leader of a major U.S. port and reportedly will earn a $500,000 annual salary. —Staff

‘They’ll take a little bit of me every time’

Cancer survivor haunted by Camp Lejeune’s toxic water When James Island resident Rose Ann Boxx’s brother turned 32 in the late 1970s, he was diagnosed with colon cancer.

The diagnosis for Robert Thomas came as a surprise. But another surprise loomed for kids like Rose Ann and Robert who spent formative years in the late 1950s at Camp Lejeune where their father was a Marine — the water was toxic, poisoned by chemicals. Thousands — including Robert and, eventually, Rose Ann — got cancer.

Last week, she recalled how her older brother Robert went through several rounds of chemotherapy and radiation treatment.

Still, he managed to make jokes about the disease that would kill him.

“They’ll take a little bit of me every time, but that’s OK,” he would tell Boxx.

For a while, things improved. But then the cancer returned, this time in his lymph nodes. Robert died Sept. 30, 1982.

He was 37.

Nearly 40 years later, Boxx is still trying to make sense of her brother’s death. She counts herself among the thousands of family members of veterans fighting for recognition and compensation from the U.S. military over decades of negligent water contamination at Lejeune that caused myriad cancers and other significant negative health impacts in servicemembers, their dependents and employees on the base.

A new bill currently working its way through Congress aims to provide relief.

The Camp Lejeune Justice Act would allow anyone exposed to contamination on the base between 1953 and 1987 to sue the government for damages. A separate bill, the Toxic Exposure in the American Military, or

Provided

Rose Ann Boxx of James Island with a photo of her brother Robert Thomas when he was a child TEAM Act, would provide health care for veterans exposed to a number of toxic substances, including those at Lejeune.

Despite some 75 cosponsors, the Justice Act has remained stalled in committee. On Oct. 21, the bill was referred to the House Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights and Civil Liberties. But advocates — a step short of hopeful — remain determined to push it across the line.

“I don’t want some politician to say ‘I’m sorry this happened to you,’ because he’s not,” Boxx said. “I would rather have 39 years of my brother not dying. But that’s not going to happen.” —Lewis Kendall

Legal ‘heavyweight’ Crump joining Sutherland family to push for charges Prominent civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who represented the family of George Floyd in 2020, is now representing the family of Jamal Sutherland, a Black man who died in law enforcement custody in Charleston County jail in January.

The family, with the Rev. Nelson Rivers of North Charleston, attorney Carl Solomon and Crump on Oct. 19 called for Lindsey Fickett and Brian Houle — the deputies involved in Sutherland’s death, who were later fired — to be charged.

“We have new counsel for justice for Jamal Sutherland,” said Sutherland’s father, James. “We will not rest. We will not forget.

Now, in the fight for civil rights, we have a heavyweight … known nationally and rec-

ognized worldwide.”

James Sutherland compared the fight to a marathon, instead of a sprint, after Ninth Circuit Solicitor Scarlett Wilson previously declined to press charges against the deputies. Wilson called for further investigation by the U.S. Dept. of Justice, something Crump also said he would be calling for.

“At some point, it just becomes reckless, reckless, reckless, no matter how you look at it,” Crump said. “And it is enough to have probable cause to be charged with involuntary manslaughter.”

Wilson said a conviction was unlikely, but Sutherland’s mother, Amy, said she wouldn’t rest until change was brought about from her son’s death. —Skyler Baldwin

Charleston officials narrowed down the next potential operators to the city’s bikeshare program Oct. 20, the final two being a startup and one of the world’s largest bike and scooter share companies.

The City of Charleston put out a request for proposals (RFP) over the summer to operate the city’s bike share program, as the existing agreement with Gotcha nears its end in November. With time ticking, a three-month extension was added to that contract to extend the current program’s operation in Charleston until February, Charleston’s new transportation director Robbie Somerville told the City Paper.

Six companies submitted bids by the August deadline, including Bolt, the Florida company that acquired Gotcha last year.

In the end, Blue Duck Express, Inc. and Neutron Holdings, the parent company of international juggernaut Lime, will be the two companies invited to share plans with the city’s selection committee in-person, Somerville said Oct. 21.

The bike-share market has shifted since 2014, when Gotcha launched Holy Spokes in Charleston. Electric scooters rose in popularity nationwide, driven by startups.

After attempting to rapidly scale-up operations by dropping scooters in cities unannounced, some cities, like Charleston, reacted by banning them.

The scooter trend seems to have cooled a bit, partially because easy-to-ride e-bikes — electric bikes and electric-assist bikes — have also grown in popularity as technology advanced.

Somerville said the companies will be scheduled to present plans in Charleston in the coming weeks, with the intent of selecting a partner to take over the program in 2022.

The committee will primarily be evaluating options for a bike program, since scooters remain banned in Charleston, he said.

“The committee went through and wanted to shortlist it and get [the companies] in front of them and check out the bikes,” Somerville said.

The scope of Charleston’s program included a minimum of 500 bikes starting in the downtown area, with the possibility of expanding in West Ashley, Daniel Island and James Island. E-bikes that go less than 20 miles per hour would be considered, according to the city’s RFP. Providers would also be required to maintain an app-based system that allows users to check out bikes, similar to how Holy Spokes currently operates.

Elsewhere in S.C., B-Cycle operates in Greenville, while Bolt operates in Columbia.

Best of the Blotter Runners Up

As a teaser for our annual Best of the Blotter issue, here are a handful of our favorite runners-up so far this year: Officers noticed a “suspicious bulge” in the pants of a man sitting on a downtown sidewalk. To their relief, and ours, it was discovered to be a 16-ounce can of beer.

A West Ashley man whose moped was stolen told officers he believes the culprit to have been a part of a larger, organized crime syndicate specializing in small motor vehicles. Guys, we got the new Fast and Furious movie.

During a routine traffic stop, police told the driver of a gray Dodge Charger to step outside, to which the man behind the wheel replied, “Why don’t you step outside, so I can beat your ass?”

A West Ashley woman’s car was struck by another in the parking lot of a West Ashley clothing store, and the other vehicle continued driving around the parking lot, apparently looking for a space.

Elections CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4

County public defender Stephen Bowden has cast himself as a new voice for West Ashley residents in District 10. A newcomer to politics, this is Bowden’s first run for political office — same as Griffin four years ago.

Griffin and Bowden largely agree flooding and traffic are among the top issues for District 10, with both candidates saying more projects are needed in West Ashley to mitigate potential flooding disasters. The two diverge slightly on time spent considering the proposed federal project that could build a seawall around parts of downtown, with Griffin calling it a waste of time altogether and Bowden saying less-dramatic measures should be considered.

In District 12, incumbent Councilwoman Carol Jackson, a retired nonprofit executive,

is facing local Realtor and teacher Caroline Parker. Again on James Island, flooding remains a leading issue.

In responses to City Paper questionnaires, Jackson and Parker differed in their views on how to deal with impacts of climate change, with Jackson stressing funding as a sticking point and Parker saying political divisions are among chief concerns.

Both candidates said they would work collaboratively to reduce the bickering on council, with challenger Parker pointing the finger back at her opponent. Jackson said she’s been “chagrined” at some council interactions, saying polarizing decisions should not be a reason for disrespect.

Bonus: Charleston City Council district lines will likely change as voting maps are redrawn statewide over the next six months to reflect population changes from the 2020 census. District footprints could shift dramatically, meaning potentially big changes

on council in 2023 and 2025.

But this year’s elections proceed with the current districts remaining intact.

Mount Pleasant mayor, council on the ballot

Will Haynie is nearing the end of his first term as Mount Pleasant’s mayor after being swept into office during an antiincumbent wave election four years ago.

Things have settled down a bit since then, but the Charleston suburb that’s grown into one of the state’s biggest cities still has its growing pains.

Haynie, a former radio host, columnist and leader of Lowcountry Land Trust, says traffic and housing affordability are the biggest issues facing Mount Pleasant.

Haynie told the City Paper that working with other local leaders to try to protect the town’s “character, charm and environ-

mental health” distinguishes his candidacy for reelection.

Kathy Landing, a financial planner who served one term on Mount Pleasant Town Council and ran unsuccessfully for the Republican nomination in the 1st Congressional District race in 2018, said public-private partnerships are key to unlocking Mount Pleasant’s independent economic vitality — a topic both Haynie also stresses as important.

Brandon Armstrong, who owns a painting business and describes herself as a Constitutional conservative, is also running for mayor, but has maintained a low-profile campaign compared to Haynie and Landing.

Mount Pleasant will also elect four members of town council. Check charlestoncitypaper.com for full responses from participating candidates for that race and others.

Local governments’ ‘legitimate’ and ‘compelling’ interest for vaccine mandates U

Views 10.27.2021

.S. District Judge David C. Norton of Charleston recently had the chance many of us wished we had for the last 10 months — to pick apart disingenuous anti-vaccine arguments to show them to be, as he wrote, “half-baked.”

Most squabbles over vaccine rules come in sudden or disjointed spurts in passing or on social media. But 1990 Bushappointed Norton’s Oct. 21 order denying a request by a group of government employees to stop their employers’ vaccine mandates systematically dismantled the case against vaccinations.

More than 125 local public employees filed the federal suit after local officials in Charleston County, the cities of North Charleston and Charleston, as well as the St. Paul Fire District, announced plans in September to require employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19. The plans vary slightly, but all phase-in by mid-November. All include exemptions for people with documented religious or other exceptions, requiring them to undergo regular virus testing.

Raising objections to vaccine mandates in federal court may seem like a fool’s errand, since it has been, after all, the federal government that has (mostly) led the pandemic response. But to be fair to the employees bringing lawsuits, federal judges have been deferential to people who raise challenges on the basis of “sincerely held religious beliefs” — the standard for civil rights protections derived from the First Amendment.

But of course, the policies do provide religious exceptions.

And Norton was having none of the spurned employees’ arguments.

“The court will not countenance this so-called ‘spaghetti approach’ to litigation whereby the parties ‘heave the entire

10

contents of a pot against the wall in hopes that something [will] stick,’” he said, quoting previous case law.

The fact is, North Charleston Mayor Keith Summey, followed by fellow Charleston-area leaders, showed leadership and good judgment by swiftly enacting these mandates together in early September. Of course, record virus case numbers over the summer and widespread vaccine availability made it a no-brainer decision. Nonetheless, local leaders deserve credit for putting their weight behind the urgent push for vaccinations.

It’s not politics. It’s a public-health issue.

“Because the vaccine undisputedly reduces the spread of COVID-19, the government has not only a legitimate interest in limiting its employees’ freedom to express themselves by vaccine refusal, but a compelling one,” the judge wrote.

Norton saw through specious claims of politicization as well, saying local leaders “have presented substantial evidence that the policies are based not on the fact that plaintiffs hold a certain belief regarding vaccination, but rather on the legitimate threat that their unvaccinated condition poses to public safety and effective governmental operations.”

Yes, many agencies are already strapped due to the pandemic and preexisting workforce shortages. But as Norton wrote, “No plaintiff is imprisoned and facing vaccination against his or her will.”

All-business, Summey reacted simply: “The city is hopeful that some plaintiffs, having read Judge Norton’s order, may now comply with the vaccination order to retain employment.”

Thanks to local leaders who stepped out to enact the requirements. Public-sector vaccine mandates will make more people get the shot. Let’s keep it up.

By Clay N. Middleton

There are some words that evoke strong feelings and strong opinions. Gentrification is undoubtedly one of them.

Defined as a process in which a poor area experiences an influx of middle-class or wealthy people who renovate and rebuild homes and businesses, gentrification is, by definition, the modern-day colonialism.

That may sound harsh to some, but as we take a step back to objectively observe the ways in which gentrification has disproportionately benefited some and displaced others, we must be clear and honest with both our assessment and solution-making.

Here in Charleston, gentrification has taken place and continues in many parts of our city. While growth is good and many positive things have resulted, one cannot ignore who has benefited the most. Quite simply, we planned for gentrification; what we failed to plan for was life after gentrification.

Now that we’re here, it’s up to us — a committed community of citizens, neighborhood leaders and city government — to prevent further displacement and create solutions for more inclusive prosperity for those who have been deeply affected by what gentrification has done to too many of our neighbors.

Life after gentrification requires demanding more If we’re not careful specifics early in the process, accountability and and intentional being part of the decision-making throughout — not becoming an afterthought on the backend. We need about the future to involve residents who we don’t always agree with to ensure constructive feedback is received and ideas are of our city, the implemented. It may sound too simple, but involving the segregation of our residents who live in a neighborhood in the planning of what becomes of that neighborhood will dramatically blemished history change the outcomes of how and when those same residents are affected upon completion of any major project. will repeat itself.

If we’re not careful and intentional about the future of our city, the segregation of our blemished history will repeat itself. Do we really want Charleston to be a segregated city in the 21st century? How can we stand toe-to-toe with our peer cities and expect to be a leader of diverse talent and inclusive decision making if that does come to pass is the case?

We must continue to have sustained growth. What we can no longer afford is ignoring the harsh realities of the side effect of that growth. In fact, growth itself is not the issue — equity is. Life after gentrification has not lifted everyone equitably. It has not closed income, wealth or education gaps of those displaced and the neighborhood in which the transformation has occurred. Amenities are provided for those coming, not those who are here now. We must keenly focus our urban planning and development not just to account for environmental changes or immediate benefits but to also account for the residual effects of that community and its people. If we don’t, we will merely become a case study of what not to do.

We can set the example for how cities respond to the ramifications of gentrification by providing property tax relief for longtime low- and middle-income homeowners, create policies that ensure residential stability for renters and create affordable commercial space for business owners.

Now that we’ve seen how life after gentrification looks, do we care enough to improve how we collaborate, plan, develop, make decisions and respect those who have more to lose than gain? Or are we satisfied with the path we are on?

“When people stop and engage with an animal, they start to feel more comfortable in a sense — more open to sharing how they’re really doing.”

Specially trained dogs punch the clock and get to work

By Skyler Baldwin

It can be tempting to rush over to pet that fluffy dog with a bright, happy face, but if it’s wearing a special vest or bandana, it could be hard at work, and it may have some very important responsibilities.

Any animal can perform tasks that help his or her owners, but some of the most important jobs are as service animals, therapy animals and emotional support animals.

The differences can be nuanced, and sometimes it can be difficult to see at a glance if an animal is working, leading to other troubling misconceptions.

“It can really discredit those who rely on their dogs for survival,” said Diana Bouchet, who has an emotional support animal, a 6-year-old husky named Meika. “It’s just a matter of education and communication, letting people know that when we’re in a store, or she’s in her vest, she’s working.”

Interacting with one of these working animals can distract them from their tasks at hand, which can make daily life more difficult for those who rely on their help.

John Hayes, trainer with The Dog Wizard in Charleston and Good Shepherd, based in Chattanooga, has been working with service animals in training for eight years.

“Very early on in my life, I started learning about dog behavior,” he said. “The first service animal I trained was for myself.

She was amazing, and I thought, ‘Man, I want to help other people.’ I just dropped everything, leapt into that world and haven’t looked back since.”

Hayes said training a service animal can look intense and intimidating at first, but to a dog, it’s fun. “We make it fun for the dog,” he said. “We call it a job for the dog, but to them, it’s a game.”

I want a dog that, I can say, ‘Heel,’ a year in the making.

Has owned Charleston location for the last two years, also owns location in Louisiana “We have had more Victoria’s Secret panties found in poop than I can count. Dogs have eaten the little lacey underwear, and we’ve given them back, cleaned them up and sealed them in a bag. If they want them, they can have them. That’s happened repeatedly.”

“We had one time where a family was going on vacation and they sent an 8-by-10 photo of the family. They wanted us to stand at the cabin — we call them cabins because they’re going to camp — and show the dog the picture for five minutes every day. And we did it!”

“We had a parent call and say, ‘I think I sent the wrong food for my dog.’

We opened it up, and it was a bag of weed.”

“We’ve had people who want us to feed their dogs specific food like chicken and feed them with a fork, so we’ve done that too.”

Owner of The Dog Wash, Carrie Montgomery Opened grooming service in 2017

“Our dogs are so funny because we have to give them baths, and none of them are excited about it. So I think if you could play sad music in the background, it would be the funniest thing.”

DOLLY Owner: Katherine Doe

“We’ve been doing a lot of color with dog-safe dye lately because one person finds out and then everyone wants a pink tail or blue ears. So when you do that, the parents always freak out thinking it’s the best thing ever, and the dogs always have that little extra pep in their step because they’re like, ‘Oh, now I have a dye job!”

“One year we called them our DSS — drunk sorority sisters. Every photo they looked like they needed a White Claw in the background because it was just mouths open, tongues out.”

“It’s been amazing to see the relationships these dogs develop with each other. We had a chocolate lab, and her best friend was a yellow lab, and I called them my labordorks, but their parents were not even friends outside of Dog Tired. Because of the dogs’ friendship, the owners were able to establish a friendship, too. They even coordinated their schedules so that their dogs could come on the same day. The two of them just had to be side-by-side. They even coordinated Halloween costumes for the party.”

“Working with the dogs all day and trying to keep them calm and comfortable, you end up talking in a high-pitched voice for most of the day, and your baby talk is on point. If anyone could hear us and not know what we’re doing, it would probably be hilarious. You’re just constantly saying things like, ‘Oh, you’re so cute.’

But you can get stuck in the voice and I’ll find myself talking to the other girls that work with me like that.”

there for support. Whether someone comes to them and sits down to talk one-on-one, or Russell brings Kevin to a workspace for a sense of comfort, just a short time with Kevin makes a big difference.

“When people stop and engage with an animal, they start to feel more comfortable in a sense — more open to sharing how they’re really doing,” she said. “That’s given me a lot of opportunities to normalize not being OK and destigmatize mental health. He’s a great catalyst for getting people to open up.”

“After just 10 minutes with a therapy animal, those feel-good hormones [like dopamine or serotonin] start to get released,” Russell said. “I’ve worked with a lot of people who, just after a few minutes of petting Kevin, will start opening up about their day. Before that, their responses may have been just, ‘Good,’ ‘Fine.’”

Kevin’s training was less rigorous than what service animals go through, with most centering around advanced behavioral training. But what sets him apart from other pets are the cues when he’s on the job — notably, his wardrobe of bandanas.

“When he sees that therapy-animal bandana, he knows he’s about to be working,” Russell said.

Kevin has worked in schools, hospitals, county jails and more — he was the pioneer therapy dog at the University of Central Oklahoma, where he and Russell worked before moving to Charleston in 2019. Most recently, he’s been traveling to local workplaces to help Russell lead mental health workshops for businesses in the Lowcountry with her new startup, Mental Health Minded.

Emotional support animals

Emotional support animals also serve a similar role to therapy animals, providing a sense of comfort and companionship that often goes beyond a pet-owner relationship.

While Meika is in training to be a service dog, she is also registered as Bouchet’s emotional support animal.

“When I was in school at the University of South Carolina, I was stressing about a heck of a lot of stuff,” Bouchet said. “She must have been 11 months old at the time, but she walked over to me and looked up at me, like, ‘It’s OK. You got this.’ That little comfort, that look, and I started thinking about how interesting it was she could pick up on that.”

But that support and comfort is where the similarities between emotional support animals and other working dogs end.

Support animals don’t need any specific training, and they don’t get the same protections as service animals Meika being Bouchet’s emotional support animal wasn’t always the plan. In fact, Meika was originally a foster dog, only meant to be taken care of for a short time.

But Bouchet couldn’t bear to give her back.

“You don’t really think about it,” she said.

The lowdown on working dogs Working dogs are often exempt from pet restrictions, often providing vital support systems for their handlers.

Service animals can go just about anywhere their handlers can, and are offered protections by the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): • All people with disabilities have the legal right to use their service animal in public areas • “No-pet” policies do not apply to service animals, even in places that sell or prepare food • Service animals come in all breeds and sizes and are not required to wear special identifiers when at work (though it does help differentiate them from other pets) • Businesses may not ask a person to prove their disability or for proof of service animal certification • Others should always ask before touching a service animal. Any form of distraction could cause problems for the handler — even when the handler is seated Emotional support animals aren’t awarded most protections that service animals qualify for. But they may be eligible for exemptions for pet bans in housing under the federal Fair Housing Act (FHA). And the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) requires airlines to allow emotional support animals to accompany their handlers in the cabin of the aircraft. In both cases, documentation is often required.

Despite going through more training than an emotional support animal, therapy animals are afforded even fewer of the privileges given to service animals, even when in “uniform.” Since they aren’t trained for specific tasks, rarely are they a necessary companion to their handlers, meaning they can’t accompany them in stores or other private locations where animals are prohibited. And they don’t qualify for the same housing exemptions granted by the FHA or ACAA. “You always think, ‘Oh that’s just my dog.

My cool dog. My pretty dog.’ But she had this skill at pretty much a puppy age. That’s when everything started to click for us.”

One of the greatest benefits of an emotional support animal is how easy it is for your beloved pet to become one.

“I think every dog has the ability to do the same thing Meika does, it’s just a matter of whether people will encourage it or not,” Bouchet said. “It’s just up to the owner.”

Steve Locke set for keynote speech

Arts 10.27.2021

By Michael Smallwood

The Gibbes Museum of Art’s Distinguished Lecture Series brings world-renowned artists to Charleston for programs designed to stimulate conversations around art. Nov. 3, Gibbes will host artist Steve Locke for a talk about the future of public art installations and the form they should take.

Locke was born in Cleveland and spent his formative years in Detroit. His master’s of fine arts degree, earned in 2001, is from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. He also received the Guggenheim Fellowship from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation in 2020. His acclaimed work throughout the years, including painting, sculpture, photography, and installations, is what led the Gibbes to offer Locke the invitation.

“It’s a time where my work is starting to move into the public realm in a new way,” Locke said. “And we’re having a big conversation about how to think about things in public as a country. And I think they were thinking about that particularly in South Carolina.”

From the murder of George Floyd and through the debates over the Calhoun statue at Marion Square — a year of racial injustice protests and discussions on how to move forward as a community have made Charleston the perfect place for Locke’s brand of artistic expression and activism, he said.

“The city’s History and Culture Subcommittee for the Special Commission on Equity, Inclusion and Racial Conciliation, has been involved in discussions over the past year on how we can address and correct systemic inequities as a community,” said Angela Mack, executive director of the Gibbes Museum of Art. “As Charleston’s leading arts institution, we are committed to extending engaging and thought-provoking programs that address issues in our community. We believe this discussion by Steve Locke will be one of the most sought-after and timely of the year, especially since greater public discussion and programming is a key recommendation in the special commission report.”

Liza Voll

The Department of Music at the College of Charleston presents a show honoring two key African-American musical artists.

Contralto Marian Anderson and bass-baritone/actor/activist Paul Robeson are the focuses of the upcoming concert, Thank you, Marian, Thank you, Paul: A tribute to Marian Anderson and Paul Robeson at 7:30 p.m., Monday, at the Sottile Theatre.

Tickets are $25 for adults, $10 for CofC students and youth (18 and under), and $15 for CofC faculty/staff. Purchase tickets online through the Sottile Theatre box office, emailing gsbo@ cofc.edu or calling (843) 953-4726.

Artist Steve Locke said he believes in confronting the causes of injustice rather than glossing over them with what he calls decorative gestures

Terrace Theater’s drive-in series finale

“I love working in the public realm, but I’m not interested in public art,” Locke said. “I’m much more interested in how we remember things in public than just, like, making objects for contemplation.”

His Boston installation, Three Deliberate Grays for Freddie, was described as a “public site of mourning” rather than an individual memorial.

“I’m very interested in what is ‘public memory,’” he said, “and how it is preserved and how we talk about it.”

Locke confronts the causes of injustice instead of just glossing over those injustices with decorative gestures. His 2017-2019 work, #Killers, challenges the murders of Black people by illustrating the murderers directly. This series includes Dylann Roof, who killed nine people in 2015 at Charleston’s Emanuel AME Church.

“The source is these men and the inchoate and unnameable whiteness that creates and supports them,” he said. “In these drawings, I make that whiteness visible … it is the condition that makes these people and their crimes inevitable.”

Locke speaks passionately about the idea of public memory over simply installing objects.

He views monuments and statues as lost opportunities to address actual issues in the community. “When you look at some of these statues that were built to honor people,” Locke said, “are we really doing that, or are we doing it to intimidate other people?”

He acknowledges that many of our statues were put up in periods to remind

Closing out the double feature drive-in series on Halloween weekend, the Terrace Theater is bringing out the big guns: the original Halloween and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

John Carpenter’s 1978 Halloween is the film that launched a franchise whose latest installment, Halloween Kills, was the No. 1 movie in America last week. It also introduced one of the most enduring movie monsters of all time in Michael Myers.

Tickets to the double features are $35 per car, and shows begin at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night.

people of America’s past during periods of civil rights battles and justice. So for Locke, the conversation is less about glorifying people who can disappoint, but rather creating works of art that help educate the public to historic events and can help with the healing of those spaces.

The removal of the Calhoun statue feeds into the larger national conversation of memorials to problematic historical figures, and what to do with those spaces when the original monuments are removed. Locke’s feelings on statues to commemorate our shared history is a fitting perspective for the Charleston community. What, or who, should replace these problematic figures poses a unique challenge in Locke’s eyes.

“Do we need a statue, or do we need to talk about what happened?” he asked. “In some ways, people making statues is a way to talk about representation without talking about the problem. I don’t need a statue, I need redlining to stop.”

“So when we talk about public memory and we talk about sites or places for us to remember things in public, I think those are more necessary than ever. I don’t think we need to be organized around a person or around an effigy of a person. I think that we can organize ourselves around events, around different activities of people.”

Steve Locke will speak Nov. 3, 6 p.m., at the Gibbes Museum of Art as part of its Distinguished Lecture Series speech. For info, visit gibbesmuseum.org.

Invisible returns for benefit screening Queen Street Playhouse will host a benefit showing of Invisible at 7:30 p.m., Saturday. Directed by T.J. Parsell, Invisible is a feature-length film about the gay women who have excelled in country music as singers/songwriters.

The film follows the journeys of the women and one transgender man who have navigated the country music landscape to become influential voices and chart-topping recording artists while staying true to themselves.

Invisible has been making the festival rounds, and returns to Charleston for another lowcountry viewing. —MS

Short on space but with a big interest in tabletop gaming, Sarah Reuter and Marshall Tyers took matters into their own hands earlier this year when they opened Owlbear Cafe, making sure they always had room for games with friends.

“We are big Dungeons & Dragons people, and we were always looking for a place to play because a lot of us didn’t have the space at our houses to accommodate the big table,” Tyers said. “So we decided to create the space we wanted to see.”

Owlbear opened in Mount Pleasant's Shoppes at Seaside Farms development about four months ago.

The cafe’s namesake comes from the game they love. An owlbear is a creature originally created for Dungeons & Dragons in 1975 — a cross between, you guessed it, an owl and a bear.

The investment to get started with Dungeons & Dragons or other games can be significant. But at Owlbear, customers have the chance to try out games before they buy them.

The café is welcome for any type of player — experienced and novice, young and old, group play and one-on-one.

“We have games for everyone. We have

kids games, we have group games, we have solo games, party games, even some first-date games," Reuter said. "It’s a great way to connect."

In addition to creating a space where people can connect over games, it had been Reuter’s dream to open a coffee shop since she worked as a barista in college.

“I didn’t have the money right out of college, so I went into accounting and stuck with it for a little over 10 years,” Reuter said. “Once we thought this might happen, in my spare time outside of accounting, I started working in events and worked as a barista at a local coffee shop on the weekends to get my feet wet.”

Reuter brought her growing interest in coffee and Tyers brought years of experience working as a chef in the Charleston area at Vintage Café and The Obstinate Daughter.

All of Owlbear's coffee drinks are made with Springbok Coffee Roasters and all syrups are made in-house. The rose cardamom latte and the Gold Dragon Latte are two of the couple's favorites.

“The inspiration for the rose cardamom latte came from a coffee shop in Greenville and the Gold Dragon has ginger, turmeric CONTINUED ON PAGE 23

LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT “

Artist Emily Cook uses sand from local beaches to craft her glass jewelry and art. Photo by DreamPop Media.

The palette of the South Carolina Lowcountry inspires our one-of-a-kind creations that explore the bounds of glass.

Emily Cook, Owner

Unique jewelry that explores beauty of glass E

luCook Designs showcases the beauty of glass in the jewelry, fine art, home decor and unique custom pieces by local artist Emily Cook. The artworks created in her Mount Pleasant studio are found online and in 11 local shops.

Cuisine 10.27.2021

“I love the intensity of color and clean lines that glass offers,” she says. “I enjoy coming up with new and inventive ways to use it. After years of experimentation, I’ve developed a technique that incorporates sand from various beaches around Charleston into fresh, unique pieces that let people bring some of the beach inside their home.”

22

Jewelry. Emily’s glass jewelry — from beautiful pendants and earrings to rings, bracelets and cufflinks — are wearable works of art.

Art. Her fine art pieces are explorations of the capabilities of kiln-fused glass that integrate different materials.

Home decor. Make your table special with beautiful glass centerpieces that are a marriage of form, function and fashion.

and cinnamon in it,” Reuter said.

But since it is fall, Owlbear also offers pumpkin spice lattes, made with housemade pumpkin spice syrup.

To go with the coffee, Owlbear serves breakfast and lunch dishes that are accessible, presented in new and creative ways.

“We’ve got your staples like the breakfast sandwich and avocado toast, but instead of scrambled or fried egg, we do an herbed frittata every morning which we garnish with housemade garlic aioli and freshtossed arugula,” Tyers said.

Other popular items include the grilled cheese and chicken salad sandwich, served on bread from North Charleston's EVO Bakery. Local beer and other drinks are also available.

“We care a lot about supporting our community because we love it here, and this is our home,” the couple said. “This is the place that we love, so we try to give back as well. We work with Burnt & Salty sauces, and they make a great Korean mustard that we love, we offer only local kombuchas, and we try to stay local with our beers.”

Owlbear also offers vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free menu items for those with dietary restrictions.

They offer free WiFi for customers and serve a lot of remote workers and regulars during the week.

“We have really great repeat customers and regulars,” Reuter said. “The community has been really receptive and supportive and it’s great to be able to provide that personal experience.”

As one of two board game cafes in the area — Game Night Charleston also recently opened in Park Circle — the couple wants to remain a go-to hangout for locals looking for something different.

“We don’t want to be a bar — we want to be family-friendly and have that café vibe of back in the day when it wasn’t just in and out," Reuter said. “We want you to sit and stay.”

The first Wednesday of every month is D&D night, and the last Wednesday is open mic night at Owlbear. Keep an eye on @owlbearcafe on Instagram for updates on special events.

Beer Week kicks off with chef competition and more Charleston Beer Week is upon us, beginning this Friday and running until Nov. 7. The 10-day celebration of Charleston’s craft beer scene is making its return for its eighth year after being cancelled in 2020, with over 50 events throughout the city.

This year’s events mark Revelry’s seventh year, a Palmetto Brewing art competition and the inaugural Hop Chef Competition, pairing some of the city’s best chefs with local breweries for a food-centric Beer Week event, crowning the city’s first “Hop Chef.”

More info on the competition, plus the 50 more events over the 10-day period, can be found out charlestonbeerweek.com. —MP Be the first to know. Read the Cuisine section at charlestoncitypaper.com.

Halloween is this weekend, and it’s not just about candy anymore.

Dashi will host an ice cream carnival from 12-4 p.m. outside on the patio, featuring games, prizes and of course, ice cream. Kids, adults and pets are welcome to arrive in costume to join the Halloween spirit. Dashi’s Dessert Camper will be outside serving scoops of Cirsea ice cream, and Dashi’s full menu will be available throughout the day to cut through the sweetness of candy and ice cream.

On the savory side, Wild Common is offering their NO BOOS Wagyu Burger Package, a $30 dinner with a Wagyu beef patty, homemade brioche bun, foie gras-caramelized onions and truffle aioli, along with a side of hand-cut fries and an apple hand pie for dessert. The dinner package can be purchased in advance, with pick-up available 4-6 p.m.

Halloween. —Michael Pham

Pulse Trolls of Amsterdam release Southern funk album, Wilson Drive

Central to the new grungy Americana album by Mike Martin (seated) is the concept of exploring the origins of his style

Local musician Mike Martin goes home

By Kevin Wilson Indiana native and hardcore troubadour Mike Martin has spent much of the last decade traveling in a van with his appropriately named band, The Beautiful Mess.

But when he is not exploring America’s backroads and beer halls with his likeminded friends, Martin hangs his hat in Charleston.

A bona fide honky-tonk hero, there is scarcely a Lowcountry juke joint or music venue where Martin has not held court in recent years.

Weaving country-rock infusions, Martin’s distinctive output embodies what Gram Parsons of The Byrds once described as “cosmic American music.”

Although he is known for a certain style now, Martin told the City Paper he experienced an internal evolution that unfolded as he transformed himself from a consumer into a creator.

“For a while I was really into hip-hop and hard rock, like most kids from my generation,” Martin said. “I really only reimmersed myself in country music when I first picked up a guitar.”

From the beginning, industry outsiders such as Willie Nelson, Townes Van Zandt and The Grateful Dead were among Martin’s major influences, teaching him lessons of what he did and did not want to

become along the way.

“Because of guys like that, who were making it by doing things their own way, I fully embraced not being pop,” Martin said.

“Sensing that artistic integrity was the most important thing to me, I realized that I had to work on the craft of songwriting. I guess I figured that true success would only follow great songs in the end.”

As he was coming into his own as a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, he found himself more drawn to the eclectic musical landscape of the Holy City.

“At a certain point, I was looking at setting up shop in either Nashville or Charleston. And Carolina country seemed more suited to my approach.”

But while spending time with his family in the Midwest, he recently got the news his mother had been diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a cancer of the blood, and with that revelation, the idea for his latest project was suddenly hatched.

“Being home at that moment with my mom, and being able to go to her weekly treatments with her was a huge blessing for us all. We’re a very tight-knit family, and our matriarch was for the first time needing the support and not being the endless supply of it,” Martin said. “We were faced with the reality that my mom is human, not Superwoman.”

“

I really only re-immersed myself in country music when I first picked up a guitar.”

—Mike Martin

“Who am I and where did I and my parents come from? Why do I even sing country music? These were the questions that suddenly became important for me to answer.”

In an attempt to make sense of it all, The Beautiful Mess went to work on a new concept album simply dubbed Home.

“I had been gone so long and had run so hard, pushing for the music, that home had become just a place I had been but was now in the rear view in a lot of ways,” he said.

Yet Martin concluded during this particular musical exploration that his home had made him the man he is today.

There will be several shows to celebrate Home’s release, including the official party on Oct. 30 at Burns Alley.

“We approach the live show like a jam band. It’s always going to be three or so hours of fun, from Hank to Hendrix and all points in between.”

Artist Formula helps local artists become discoverable

Music services company Artist Formula has been helping artists in the wide world of DIY distribution and publishing since 2017. The record group is the brainchild of Charlestonturned-Los Angeles musician Tyler Boone and Nashville-based cofounder Sean Carpenter.

Following up its first compilation, Sounds of Rock, Artist Formula released Songs to Groove To featuring local acts Dead Swells, Slim S.O.U.L. and Ryan Janeiro, along with Atlanta funk band Cadillac Jones. —CG

Shovels and Rope resurface with ‘Domino’ Charleston’s beloved husband-wife folk duo, Shovels and Rope, speed up the tempo on the group’s new song, “Domino,” a tune reminiscent of Queen with its doo-wop vocals and piano-driven rhythms.

The simplistic music video with Monty Python-style animated caricatures draws you into the beat with retro illustrations of vintage cars with wings and airships with octopus tentacles.

The lyrics tell the story of James Dean’s ghost surveying the U.S. entertainment culture, a press release said. —CG

North Augusta musician Stephen Wilson brings funk-soaked rock on Wilson Drive, his second album under the moniker Trolls of Amsterdam.

In his 25 years as a musician, he’s performed with greats like The Blues Brothers, The Wailers and James Brown, who is Wilson’s single-biggest influence.

The 10 new tracks consist of Wilson’s original songs written across some 18 years, plus reworked material from when Trolls’ was a three-piece out of Half Moon Bay, California.

Songwriter Elizabeth Covington sorts through her thoughts

30

The subject of Elizabeth Covington’s debut song, “sleepovers on the phone,” is quite the opposite of her new single, “prove me wrong.”

The intimacy of falling asleep on the phone with your long-distance boyfriend is far from the sentiment heard on the new track, which is filled with apprehension and mistrust.

She sings, “If I were to call you would you even pick up? If I were to run into you out would you even give a fuck?”

The new lyrics sprang from revisiting past relationships and interweaving those scenarios with personal narratives, like having coffee and fries for breakfast while you ponder the power dynamics behind romance. “ ‘prove me wrong,’ I wrote like a year ago around this time — I don’t know if Mercury was in retrograde around then too — but all my friends were going through it in their relationships,” Covington said.

“Being a writer, especially a songwriter— most of us are very empathetic. I was the group therapist at the time, giving everyone advice and reflecting on past relationships.”

Covington has always written little stories, but the first fully formed song she wrote was in fifth grade inspired by seeing her classmate reunite with his father after he had been away for two years on active military duty.

She ended up singing at a veteran’s event where Gov. Nikki Haley was in attendance and went on to sing at a military tribute event affiliated with family friend Darius Rucker of Hootie & the Blowfish, which isn’t a bad way to start out.

Her upcoming LP out of Coast Records with omnipresent locals Matt Zutell on drums and Scottie Frier on guitar is Covington’s first foray into recording.

Being immersed in creativity at Savannah College of Art and Design has doubled her realization that music is what

Brooke Pizio

Up-and-coming alternative artist Elizabeth Covington delivers a slow tune she wants to do professionally, yet helps her retain a balanced view of her art.

“I go on TikTok and see some of the best singers I’ve ever heard in my life. I’m like, ‘How is this possible?’ I think what keeps me going more than anything is that I have stories to tell which are unique to me, and I want people to hear them.”

When it comes to music as medicine, she feels like listening to the singer-songwriters like Joni Mitchell and Phoebe Bridgers is similar to having someone read out loud to you, reminiscing over preCOVID times.

“Now people are writing songs about being in quarantine — that’s a coping mechanism in itself. When you’re emotional it’s nice to hear other people going through it and writing about it and making music to listen to for when you’re sad or music for when you’re happy, which is kind of why I did polar-opposite songs.”
