Biden’s pledge looms with Supreme Court opening U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn’s mid-debate nudge of then-candidate Joe Biden to pledge to nominate a Black woman to the U.S. Supreme Court came back into focus last week with the news of Justice Stephen Breyer’s retirement at the end of the current Supreme Court term, which will likely come in late spring. With South Carolina’s 2020 Democratic primary still up in the air, and as Biden seemed aimless in the Feb. 25 debate, Clyburn urged his longtime Capitol Hill colleague to make a public commitment that could push him over the edge. A new excerpt from Lucky, an upcoming book by reporters Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, tells the tale:

News 02.02.2022

He made a beeline for the backstage area. Pete Buttigieg approached to greet the most powerful Democrat in South Carolina politics. Clyburn brushed Mayor Pete aside. His eyes darted around, and he finally found Biden. They huddled together out of earshot of the other candidates. There wasn’t much time until Biden had to be back onstage for the final segment of the debate. “You’ve had a couple of opportunities to mention naming a Black woman to the Supreme Court,” Clyburn lectured his friend of nearly half a century, like a schoolteacher scolding a child. “I’m telling you, don’t you leave the stage tonight without making it known that you will do that.”

Biden went on to make the pledge, earn Clyburn’s endorsement the next day, win the primary and eventually win in November. Unlike past confirmation fights, Republicans seem resigned that Biden will get his first Supreme Court justice confirmation in the coming weeks. “Elections have consequences, and that is most evident when it comes to fulfilling vacancies on the Supreme Court,” said U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, who marshaled former President Donald Trump’s past two confirmations as chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, in a Jan. 26 statement. The South Carolina connections don’t stop with Clyburn. U.S. District Judge Michelle Childs, based in Columbia, is among the sitting jurists that could be on Biden’s short list to replace Breyer, according to the Associated Press. Childs has served on the U.S. District Court since being nominated in 2009. —Sam Spence

Charleston coalition seeks alternative to proposed sea wall A group of local leaders, environmental and preservation advocates, engineers, business owners and concerned citizens formed the Charleston Water Coalition (CWC) in an effort to protect downtown Charleston from rising tides and floodwaters. “The Charleston Water Coalition is committed to finding solutions to the multidimensional challenge of water management.” said former Charleston city councilwoman and CWC spokesperson Marie Delcioppo. “Our first action is asking city leaders to pause moving the proposed peninsula seawall to PED [pre- construction, engineering and design] phase.” Delcioppo said much of the public lacks an understanding of what the PED phase is: a commitment of forward momentum with little adjustment to the planned wall. The coalition, she said, seeks to provide a more clear picture of what the project actually commits taxpayers to. “A single solution cannot solve the complicated, multifaceted threat facing our city,” said Jamey Goldin, former counsel for the S.C. House of Representatives and an energy attorney with Google. “Surrounding the city with a wall, which will reportedly loom as high as 11 feet in some areas, will permanently scar our city and draw money and resources away from other much-needed projects.”

Delcioppo said while perimeter protection is a good step for some areas, a “single-purpose monolithic 8.5-mile concrete wall” is not the answer for everyone. “The city deserves a comprehensive water management plan with groundwater assessment that addresses all of our flooding concerns city-wide,” she said. Robinson Design Engineers, in a July 2020 report to the Army Corps of Engineers during its public input period, acknowledged the need for a storm surge barrier, but said the proposed structure “contradicts the core principles of building resilient cities.” The report encourages city leaders and the community at large to reject the proposal and instead embrace alternatives that “promote the ecological integrity of our natural defenses against floodwaters,” like marshlands. “As has been suggested in the Dutch Dialogues, that perimeter protection must be multifunctional and beautiful, that any perimeter protection must be logical, practical and forward looking, and that alignments must take a multi-benefit approach,” Delcioppo told the City Paper. “To advance a no-regrets approach, and before any further steps are taken regarding this single-purpose linear wall, all options must be considered and agreed upon.” —Skyler Baldwin

COVID data reporting prompts questions Questions are being asked about a week of delayed reporting of COVID-19 data at a time when the pandemic has been at the peak of its fourth surge. State Sen. Margie Bright Matthews, D-Colleton, said last week she heard lots of grumbling about the agency in charge of reporting the data, the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control. “Someone really needs to go in and look at what is really going on at DHEC,” she said Jan. 28. “I’m getting complaints.” The agency was unable to push full daily COVID updates last week, reportedly due to a record number of reported tests. When asked whether the agency was embarrassed by being overwhelmed by data, DHEC spokesman Ron Aiken told

City Paper sister publication Statehouse Report, “The unprecedented numbers of tests and cases generated by the omicron surge strained not just the state’s, but the entire country’s existing COVID-19 reporting infrastructure. We are no exception. “No one wants delays of any kind, but the upside for the public of a temporarily challenging situation is that when issues such as this arise that expose a weakness, it affords you the opportunity to correct it in a responsible and responsive way that makes those process[es] and systems even more robust than they were before.” At mid-week, DHEC resumed reporting of the numbers of new cases and deaths, but results for the number of tests administered

and the percentage of positive test results — both of which are indicative of the severity of the pandemic now — were still delayed. A Jan. 27 statement said reporting roadblocks have been removed and full results soon will be available. “The delay was corrected Wednesday afternoon,” according to DHEC Public Health Director Dr. Brannon Traxler in a statement to Statehouse Report Jan. 28. “It began Monday [Jan. 24] due to an extraordinary volume of testing data funneling into a single software system. The long upload times of the large data files created a backlog that could not be accelerated, nor could the data waiting to be uploaded be analyzed and responsibly vetted.” —Skyler Baldwin, Andy Brack

sure my district is getting what it needs — a livable community we can get around in, with new businesses opening up and thriving, without introducing some of the division — and pitting parts of the city against each other — that has become all too common.” And Bowden said he believes he has the confidence of those in his district who elected him to make those tough decisions. “I am the one talking to stakeholders — and certainly those in my district are stakeholders — so I’m not making these decisions alone,” he said. “But at the end of the day, I’ll make the decision and live with the consequences.” Some of those tough decisions have already been made, like his support for the racial conciliation commission that has proved divisive both on council and among Charleston residents. But regardless of controversy, he said the decisions he makes are those he believes will only benefit the city. “This city is going to sink or swim together, and I intend to see it swim.” DISTRICT 12

Caroline Parker

Councilwoman Caroline Parker was also sworn in on Jan. 11, after unseating firstterm Councilwoman Carol Jackson to represent James Island. And while she knew what to expect, she said she wished her first meeting wasn’t as contentious. “I had certainly hoped that my first council meeting would not have been made into an event where people felt divided and needed to protest outside,” she told the City Paper in an email, referring to the proposed racial conciliation commission. “I understand there are very contentious items on the agenda, and that I ran a campaign that opposed some of these items that some don’t agree with. I was certain that my time on council was surely going to be ripe with discussion. I just wish it didn’t have to be my first night in council chambers.” Asked about upcoming projects City Council will be tackling this year, Parker said she wants to be directly involved in outreach programs, something she said is important to help strengthen the community. “Unfortunately, I won’t always be able to make everyone happy — that is the most difficult aspect for me,” she said. “I will certainly always try to find a middle ground, if there is one.” “I will continue to approach everything with an open mind and an open heart and hope that my fellow council members will do the same,” Parker said. “Just because we have different opinions doesn’t make mine wrong and theirs right. We have to work together to accomplish what we were elected to do, which is taking care of our tax-paying citizens and ensuring that the city is providing them with their core government services.”

Blotter of the Week

A man sleeping on a downtown sidewalk past curfew told officers, after they woke him up, that he wasn’t sleeping, and that he was just eating fruit. To be fair, he did have fruit on his person.

RUNNERS UP A West Ashley man who had rammed his car into a tree told officers he felt fine and would like to drive home, despite his car being in no condition to drive. Officers discovered why the man was so reluctant to leave the car when they found the bag of weed in the center console. To clarify, he was not high when he wrecked the car … he was drunk. A downtown man told officers the plastic bag of what they assumed was weed was actually edibles from a dispensary in Las Vegas. Police noted the substance was consistent with ground marijuana to be rolled into a cigarette. Listen, guys, it was probably just imported. Police approached a downtown man they suspected to have been driving under the influence. When police asked if the vehicle was his, the driver responded, “No, it’s my brother’s.” Unfortunately for him, the alcohol in his system wasn’t going to be passed off that easily.

EDITORIAL

Charleston leaders losing sight of the long-term C

harleston city leaders sure seem to be doing a whole lot of talking and not a lot of acting in recent months. Every few weeks, they seem to reinvent the wheel. Defer this, study that. We understand there are a lot of important, urgent issues facing the city that leaders must be able to address head-on. But that’s just not happening. Charleston seems to be adrift without a vision and without a plan. It’s not the mayor’s fault or any one leader’s fault, but city hall as a whole has failed to earn and maintain trust from Charleston residents new and old. As reporters covering the city’s day-to-day business, we have a pretty good idea of what your leaders have been up to — at least more so than most residents who shouldn’t have to be worried about 80 Broad St. But even we can’t say for sure that city leaders have things under control. That’s sad. All of this may be a fair assessment to some. Others may quibble on specifics. But we don’t think anyone can make the case that things are firmly in hand. Whether that’s a problem of perception or reality, it’s a problem. City leadership has undergone significant change in the past 10 years: Eight of the 11 members of city council have changed and Joe Riley, who served as mayor for 40 years as Charleston flourished, retired. Mayor Joe wasn’t perfect, and most everyone expected a rough patch after his departure. There were going to be long-ignored projects that would need to be addressed. Parts of Charleston that got less attention under Riley would need extra attention.

But like him or not, and his foibles notwithstanding, people knew Riley’s vision to build Charleston as a successful, culturerich city that’s beautiful and liveable for all. Without Riley’s vision and stubborn force of will, city business has become something of a free-for-all. No one knows where they want the city to go, so nobody knows how to get there, leaving city leaders to fight in five-hour marathon meetings about the best strategy. Mostly, they just make it up as they go. The result: little to no progress on anything. Take, for example, the proposed Human Affairs and Racial Conciliation Commission, a relatively straightforward city office devoted to rooting out systemic racism. Not only is this a no-brainer policy item our city should be eager to back, but city leaders already have a mandate to do just that. A 2018 vote by city council to apologize for the city’s role in institutional slavery empowered its leaders to take the next steps to right the wrongs of the past. Instead, city council members and the mayor have avoided any tough talk by dancing around the subject while detractors spew angry political scare tactics to stop progress. Worst of all: They’re winning; the city still hasn’t approved the commission. The stalled commission is just one symptom of Charleston’s directionless leadership. Our leaders seem to have forgotten they were elected and entrusted to make real and tough decisions for this city and its residents. It’s time for them to step up and lead. Get past the current crises, and set Charleston on a course for the long-term future.

GOP must be smoking weed on abortion bills By Andy Brack Domineering Republican men in the legislature who are making decisions about women’s bodies must be just plain arrogant. If they harbor any notion they are helping poor and young women in South Carolina by curbing abortions, they’re smoking the weed that the state Senate has been talking about this week.

If our state legislators keep pushing soulless abortion bills to score political points with their voting base, they’re sentencing too many young women to pain, suffering and horror. Why? Because legislating against abortions won’t make them go away. They’ll just cockroach them into the shadows.

Democrats Margie Bright Matthews of Walterboro and Marlon Kimpson of Charleston voted against the measures. One bill, S. 988, would define the beginning of life at fertilization and, according to the Associated Press, hold that “any doctor who performs an abortion after that point could face similar charges to murder.” The measure, sponsored by Cash, is considered an abortion ban, but would allow birth control and contraception as well as abortions if a mother’s life were in danger or an egg was fertilized outside of the womb. If approved, this “trigger law” would take effect if the U.S. Supreme Court, which is taking a serious look at the landmark Roe v. Wade abortion rights decision, were to turn abortion rights over to states. Another proposal, S. 907, calls for doctors to give a written statement that drug-induced abortions could be reversed after one dose of a two-dose drug, which opponents say is medically inaccurate and unproven. Last year, the General Assembly passed a law banning most abortions by requiring ultrasounds for a “fetal heartbeat” and, if Andy Brack is detected, bans abortion except in cases of rape, incest or danger to publisher of the mother’s life.

LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

“

We’ve kept 680 tons out of the landfill in 2021. That’s a pretty big accomplishment.

”

Elizabeth Fisher, Owner

Since 2006, GlassEco Surfaces has worked with its sister company, Fisher Recycling, to create beautifully crafted Terrazzo-style glass countertops. Fisher Recycling has offered curbside recycling pick-up for commercial businesses since 1992, but it also offers two public glass recycling drop sites for residents. About 10% of the glass is then used to create custom countertops for homes and businesses. The remaining glass is processed in a recycling plant in Beaufort. “We recycle 100% of our glass, which is a big deal,” said owner Elizabeth Fisher. “We’ve kept 680 tons out of the landfill in 2021. That’s a pretty big accomplishment.” Fisher, who owns both Fisher Recycling and GlassEco, operates the family-

run companies and hopes to see even more of a recycling movement in the coming year to keep glass out of landfills. Though most of the recycled glass countertops are purchased by homeowners and designers, Charleston-area businesses are also customers of GlassEco. You can spot the uniquely designed counters in breweries, restaurants, offices and yoga studios around town. Interested customers can customize their recycled glass countertops to reflect their personal styles and complement their homes or businesses. Make an appointment to visit the showroom in North Charleston, and create a custom sample out of beautiful, brightly colored recycled glass from businesses around Charleston.

13 photos the City Paper didn’t publish in 2021 Words and photos by Ruta Smith

hen I tell someone on a photo shoot, “I’m just testing my light,” I’m usually lying. After all, telling people to “just act natural!” never works. Could you act naturally with someone pointing a camera in your face?

Some of my favorite shots come in the moments before and after the photos the City Paper art director chooses to be published in our weekly issues. So we filed through a bunch of our favorite shots from last year to find those moments — the photos that didn’t run in 2021.

Feature 02.02.2022

Mounting the cannon, History of Charleston for Morons

I knew what I was getting myself into with these guys — I’ve worked with Greg Tavares from Theatre 99 before. I didn’t ask them to bring any props, but they did. They came fully prepared. I wanted to do some simple shots along the Battery — it’s near where they start their comedy bus tour. My son was with me that day, and he was climbing on the cannon. So I very jokingly said, “What if you guys did that?” I did not expect three grown-up men to get up there. It’s big. They had to help each other up. They were struggling — it made me laugh so much. I wanted to make sure this picture saw the light of day.

Valentine’s Day, Life Raft Treats

You would be surprised how many shoots happen on the floor with big massive doors open. This is on a warehouse floor at Cynthia Wong’s James Island commissary kitchen with an open garage door just out of frame. In case you can’t tell, squares give me anxiety — they never fit right. Having a square cake on a square box on a square plate on a square newspaper … That’s why all these are slightly turned.

Sushi Chef, Shiki

Herring dish, Pink Bellies

When I saw Pink Bellies chef-owner Thai Phi was doing this dish, my jaw dropped. It’s a very, very traditional Eastern European dish I grew up eating in Lithuania during Christmas, and he nailed it. Usually, it has pickled herring, boiled carrots, beets, potatoes and egg. It has a very distinct look because you have to layer it. I talked to him about it, and he said he wanted his restaurant to offer unexpected things.

Cooks in the kitchen, Chasing Sage

As I took this picture, I kind of knew it wouldn’t make it into the paper, because there’s no real space to put words in the corners, the people in the photo are just too busy or the details would have kind of disappeared because of the size of the paper or the quality of the print.

Cocktail, Coterie

I appreciate the restaurants that put in the extra details. As a photographer, it’s a chance to pull out your macro lens, and you can get up close to capture those details. CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

It’s always special when you go into family-run businesses like Shiki, because the families always make things their own ways. They’re just very specific, so I just follow their lead. Here, the restaurant was closed, and the light was just beautiful, it was quiet, and owner David Park is just shaving this cucumber.

Photographer FROM PAGE 13

Melissa Polutta, Trash Gurl

I really wanted to get a shot of one of her containers in a very recognizable spot. It was 6 o’clock in the morning, so it wouldn’t be busy, and I needed to stand in the middle of King Street. This was probably one of my favorite stories of the year. The way it started, during one of our meetings, someone said, “What do you guys think about those purple Trash Gurl containers?” I also got an elevated shot where they put me on a tractor and lifted me up — I was about 25-weeks pregnant — so, that was fun.

Feature 02.02.2022

Distillation column, Charleston Distilling

I had heard Charleston Distilling moved from its old location on King Street because the owners said they outgrew it. When I was done with a shoot at the new location on Johns Island, I was packing and just happened to glance up. For all that’s said about Charleston being a small place, this 50-foot component of the still is pretty massive.

Espresso martini, Bodega

This was for a Dish story about espresso martinis, and I’ve heard even more about them since then. But this shot specifically, I think every photographer loves that — the perfect light, the drip. It might not be the best shot for the paper, but it’s a fun picture. When you take so many cocktail pictures, it’s just a lot of the same. And getting this shot is not necessarily difficult, but a lot of things need to happen for the drip in the shot to look like that.

I always look at the light — the way the light hits the face. Sometimes the location is important, sometimes not. What’s behind them? Sometimes I’ll get lucky with one of those, “Hey, I’m testing my light” shots. But usually the good shot will come from the beginning or the end, it’s never really in the middle of the shoot. Sometimes they’re overthinking it, or toward the end they’re just more comfortable. Sometimes, like with Fernando Soto (lower right), they’re comfortable in front of the camera. And we rarely shoot people without some kind of public eye on them. Anyway, we live in an age when everyone is super aware of cameras around them.

Cuisine 02.02.2022

By Michael Pham

One of Charleston’s most unique cocktail spots opens this month on King Street. Self-identified “retailista” Emily Heintz always wanted to open her own retail store. And with over 30 years of experience in retail and sales, her longtime dream has come to fruition. With an open date of Feb. 14, Heintz is opening her first shop, Sèchey, selling socalled “alternative spirits” at 420 King St., next to Blue Bicycle Books. Sèchey launched as an online store in September 2021, with pop-ups at Second Sunday on King. The journey leading to Sèchey started when Heintz purchased a house in Charleston in 2019. She didn’t live in the house quite yet, but knew she wanted property in the city. While living in San Francisco, she rented her Charleston home. But when it was time for a change of scenery, she moved into the house in 2021 with the goal to open her own shop — an idea that sat in the back of her mind for years. “I had my own store in my early twenties,” said Heintz. “But e-commerce was a lot different back then. You didn’t have the same support system or access to capital, so we ended up closing that business.” She didn’t know what the store was going to be, but knew it was time. “It was a struggle. It was always, ‘Where’s your idea?’” The inspiration came to her when, during quarantine in the early months of the pandemic, she went on cleanses and started looking for alcohol-free spirits and cocktails to drink at home. “COVID was tough,” she said. “We were all drinking so much and after a while, I quit drinking to stay present with my day and make clear decisions. I was in San Francisco, away from my family and had a house in Charleston. I needed to stay present.” The amount of research she had done herself, combined with the connections she had made with non-alcoholic spirit brands, Heintz had come to realize a hole in the market for the product. There was a demand for non-alcoholic spirits, but not a single place to source from. “I felt that if I’m feeling this way, I’m sure

Sèchey owner Emily Heintz said the inspiration for her alternative spirits business came in the early months of the pandemic-prompted quarantine there’s so many other people feeling this too, and want alternatives to drinking,” added Heintz. “So I started to play around with the idea and came up with the word ‘Sèchey’ because ‘sèche’ means ‘dry’ in French and sèche was already taken, but sèchey was available and its tied to being dry, so I said, ‘you know what? Let’s do it.’” On it’s website, Sèchey is described simply as, “Dryish.” To determine the products carried at Sèchey, it was Heintz’s own research during the conception of the e-commerce store. She would buy directly from the brand to taste, then reach out and explain her vision for Sèchey. “I started developing relationships with brands very early on and explaining my vision,” she said. “And when we launched the website in September, from there, people are finding me now.” Once Sèchey launched online, it was always in the plans to open up a physical location. But with Charleston being a craft beer and bar-heavy city, especially downtown, opening a store selling non-alcoholic spirits was a difficult task. “I’ve been looking since July [of last year], knowing I wanted to open up this little store,” she said about finding a location. “We had an incredibly difficult time, given we’re a start-up, people don’t understand the space, I’m new to the city and don’t know anyone and we’ve only been in business six months.” “We were getting turned down constantly,” she added, until a colleague referred Heintz to Prime South Group.

With a space secured, Heintz already has a vision for the interior design. At the beginning of the year, Sèchey held a pop-up at The Port at the Restoration Hotel. It was an open space, with shelves along the walls. In the back of the space was a bar, where one could order a cocktail using one of the many non-alcoholic spirits the store carries. The cocktail menu itself was all non-alcoholic. However, the option to add alcohol was there. “You don’t have to ask for a mocktail because the cocktail menu is the cocktail menu. The option to add alcohol is just there, which is the opposite at bars and restaurants,” said Heintz. “We know we want to do part of the store as a bar and food concept that’s flipping the script with the bar and having alcohol as an option,” Heintz said. “But we’re still deciding what’s going to work best.” “At the pop-up, it worked really well. It didn’t matter what was in your glass,” she added. “It just removes that judgment and the ability for people to say stuff like, ‘why aren’t you drinking?’ There’s a lot of stigma and we want to get away from it when someone says they don’t drink.” Other plans for the store include workshops and classes, according to Heintz. Sèchey will be located on 420 King Street. Curbside pick-up is available Mon.-Fri. from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Call 854-202-1443 prior to pick-up. Free local delivery within an 8-mile radius of downtown Charleston or $5 delivery to the metro area. Official retail hours coming soon. Order online at sechey.com.

ADVERTISE IN THE EMAIL CRIS@CHARLESTONCITYPAPER.COM

Free Will Astrology ARIES (March 21-April 19): Aries actor Bette Davis said that if you want to improve your work, you should “attempt the impossible.” That’s perfect advice for you right now. I hope to see you hone your skills as you stretch yourself into the unknown. I will celebrate your forays into the frontiers, since doing so will make you even smarter than you already are. I will cheer you on as you transcend your expectations and exceed your limits, thereby enhancing your flair for self-love. Here’s your mantra: “I now have the power to turn the impossible into the possible and boost my health and fortunes in the process.” TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Ancient Chinese philosopher Sun Tzu wrote, “Opportunities multiply as they are seized.” You’ll be wise to make that your motto during the next five months, Taurus. Life will conspire to bring you more and more benefits and invitations as you take full advantage of the benefits and invitations that life brings. The abundance gathering in your vicinity may even start to seem ridiculously extravagant. Envious people could accuse you of being greedy, when in fact, you’re simply harnessing a crucial rule in the game of life. To minimize envy and generate even more benefits and invitations, be generous in sharing your plenitude. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “’Because there has been no one to stop me’ has been one of the principles of my life,” wrote Gemini author Joyce Carol Oates. “If I’d observed all the rules, I’d never have got anywhere,” said Gemini actor Marilyn Monroe. “Play the game. Never let the game play you.” So advised Gemini rapper and actor Tupac Shakur. “Who I really am keeps surprising me,” declared Gemini author Nikki Giovanni. I propose that we make the previous four quotes your wisdom teachings during the next four weeks. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Your animal symbol is usually the crab. But I propose we temporarily change it to the tardigrade. It’s a tiny, eight-legged creature that’s among the most stalwart on planet Earth — able to live everywhere, from mountaintops to tropical rainforests to the deepest parts of the sea. In extreme temperatures, it thrives, as well as under extreme pressures. Since it emerged as a species half a billion years ago, it has survived all five mass extinctions. I believe you will be as hardy and adaptable and resolute as a tardigrade in the coming months, Cancerian. You will specialize in grit and resilience and determination. PS: Tardigrades are regarded as a “pioneer species” because they take up residence in new and changed environments, paving the way for the arrival of other species. They help create novel ecosystems. Metaphorically speaking, you could be like that. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I regularly ask myself how I can become more open-minded. Have I stopped being receptive in any way? What new developments and fresh ideas am I ignorant of? Have my strong opinions blinded me to possibilities that don’t fit my opinions? In accordance with astrological omens, Leo, I encourage you to adopt my attitude in the coming weeks. For inspiration, read these thoughts by philosopher Marc-Alain Ouaknin: “If things speak to us, it is because we are open to them, we perceive them, listen to them, and give them meaning. If things keep quiet, if they no longer speak to us, it is because we are closed.” VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Like all the rest of us, Virgo, you have limitations. And it’s important for you to identify them and take them into consideration. But I want to make sure you realize you also have fake limitations; you wrongly believe in the truth of some supposed limitations that are, in fact, mostly illusory or imaginary. Your job right now is to dismantle and dissolve those. For inspiration, here’s advice from author Mignon McLaughlin: “Learning too soon our limitations, we never learn our powers.” LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Develop enough courage so that you can stand up for yourself and then stand up for somebody else,” counseled poet and activist Maya Angelou. Author Toni Morrison said, “The function of freedom is to free someone else.” Author and activist Nikki Giovanni wrote,

By Rob Brezsny

“Everybody that loves freedom loves Harriet Tubman because she was determined not only to be free, but to make free as many people as she could.” I hope the wisdom of these women will be among your guiding thoughts in the coming weeks. As your own power and freedom grow, you can supercharge them — render them even more potent — by using them to help others. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Man, sometimes it takes you a long time to sound like yourself,” testified Miles Davis, one of the most unique and talented jazz trumpeters and composers who ever lived. Popular and successful author Anne Lamott expressed a similar sentiment: “I’m here to be me, which is taking a great deal longer than I had hoped.” If those two geniuses found it a challenge to fully develop their special potentials, what chance do the rest of us have? I have good news in that regard, Scorpio. I believe 2022 will be a very favorable time to home in on your deepest, truest self — to ascertain and express more of your soul’s code. And you’re entering a phase when your instinct for making that happen will be at a peak. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In the course of human history, 3 million ships have sunk to the bottom of the Earth’s seas. At one extreme have been huge vessels, like the Titanic and naval cruisers, while at the other extreme are small fishing boats. Many of these have carried money, gems, jewelry, gold, and other precious items. Some people have made it their job to search for those treasures. I believe there could and should be a metaphorical resemblance between you and them in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. Now is a favorable time for you to hunt for valuable resources, ideas, memories and yes, even treasures that may be tucked away in the depths, in hidden locations and in dark places. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “It is astonishing what force, purity, and wisdom it requires for a human being to keep clear of falsehoods,” wrote author Margaret Fuller. That’s the bad news. The good news is that your capacity for exposing and resisting falsehoods is now at a peak. Furthermore, you have a robust ability to ward off delusions, pretense, nonsense, inauthenticity, and foolishness. Don’t be shy about using your superpowers, Capricorn. Everyone you know will benefit as you zero in and focus on what’s true and genuine. And you will benefit the most. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “All things are inventions of holiness,” wrote poet Mary Oliver. “Some more rascally than others.” I agree. And I’ll add that in the coming weeks, holiness is likely to be especially rascally as it crafts its inventions in your vicinity. Here are the shades of my meaning for the word “rascally”: unruly, experimental, mischievous, amusing, mercurial, buoyant, whimsical, and kaleidoscopic. But don’t forget that all of this will unfold under the guidance and influence of holiness. I suspect you’ll encounter some of the most amusing and entertaining outbreaks of divine intervention ever. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The year 1905 is referred to as Albert Einstein’s “Year of Miracles.” The Piscean physicist, who was 26 years old, produced three scientific papers that transformed the nature of physics and the way we understand the universe. Among his revolutionary ideas were the theory of special relativity, the concept that light was composed of particles, and the iconic equation, E = mc squared. With that information as a backdrop, I will make a bold prediction: that in 2022 you will experience your own personal version of a Year of Miracles. The process is already underway. Now it’s time to accelerate it. Homework: What is the wisest foolishness you could carry out right now? Newsletter. FreeWillAstrology.com

Stella Gaskins

AURORA YOGA PRESENTS FIRE

mom talked her out of it, and both animals were rescued. Further, at only seventeen pounds Stella was an accomplished herd dog, having the ability to swiftly corral any rogue cow back to the safety of their pasture at her grandparent’s property. In her spare time, Stella loved chasing tennis balls and ripping them apart. She also never tired of destroying her toys — she found great pleasure in chewing them open and proudly biting out the squeaker. She loved car rides and insisted on sitting in the driver’s seat with the window rolled down and wind against her face. She also thoroughly enjoyed partaking in “drive by barking” — startling unsuspecting people and dogs while bike riding with her mom. She is survived by her mom, sister Bella Cat, grandparents Cindy and Norman Gaskins, aunts Brandy Gaskins and Nikki Campbell and a handful of furry cousins and plush toys sans squeakers. Stella will be greatly missed by many but none moreso than her mom. Through thick and thin, she loved her with all her heart, and though the pain she feels without her is immense, it in no way would compare to having never had Stella in her life. In lieu of flowers, Stella’s mom is requesting that you eat the dessert, ride with the window down, share the bacon and make room on the bed. Most important, remember that grief is a small price to pay for the wonderful gift that pets provide: the priceless treasure of unconditional love.

Stella Gaskins, a beautiful black and tan dachshund, passed peacefully alongside her mom of nearly six years on Monday, Jan. 24, 2022. Born in 2012, Stella was adopted by her mom, Kelly Gaskins, on March 11, 2016, and quickly became her best friend. Stella was a member of the Dachshunds of Charleston and was active in the community, from strutting her stuff annually in local Christmas parades to running in the weiner dog race (second place champ!). She also enjoyed running with her mom on timed 5ks around the Lowcountry. Stella took seriously her job to protect and serve. She never let a doorbell ring without sounding her very vocal alarm, she never let a palmetto bug infiltrate the perimeter and she restricted the squirrels to a designated tree along with evicting various rodents, ground moles and bunnies from the backyard. She also helped around the house by sucking up at record speed any crumbs or pieces of food dropped on the floor. Proving not all heroes wear capes, Stella is credited with sniffing out an abandoned baby squirrel once as well as a turtle stuck between a fence.

Music 02.02.2022

By Chelsea Grinstead

While singer-songwriter LaFaye is fairly new to Charleston and to songwriting, it’s been a beautiful transition. When she was living in Savannah, Georgia, during a five-year stint as a vocalist in the Army, Charleston was her getaway place to see live music. Less than a year after she made the move to Charleston permanent in 2020, LaFaye starred in the Charleston Music Hall & ZD Experience production, Simply the Best: A Tribute to Tina Tuner, proving her innate ability not only to stand out in the crowd, but to find her tribe. “2020 made me think, ‘Look, sis, you need to get it together and have a plan B, have a plan C, because you just don’t know,’ ” LaFaye. “It put me in a humble space and allowed me to learn to appreciate being creative. It gave me a better outlook on where I plan on going and where I plan on taking this music stuff in general.” And where she’s taken it is a Charleston rendition of the live band concept she formed in Savannah called LaFaye & the Fellas with a varying cast of local musicians, plus an upcoming EP she’s shooting to release in the spring. “I always try to incorporate rock ’n’ roll, of course; I can’t get away from the soul part. I call it rock soul,” she said of her style as a performer. “When it comes to my band, I’m able to do more than stand behind a microphone and sing. You’re going to get a very interactive it’s-just-me-and-you kind of thing.” LaFaye’s 2019 single, “Flaws & All,” is a cool, calm neo-soul number strung together with self-affirming perceptions, a steady first step into the role of a songwriter. She’s used the past two years to hone her craft, which didn’t necessarily come easily to her at first. Now she finds herself writing all the time, reworking little lines and excerpts she hears to make them her own. She’s currently working with Atlanta producers Jyrin Cox and SangriaTheProducer as well as local musician Stephen Washington to structure the sound she’s looking for on her upcoming EP, which won’t stray far from the vibe she brings in a live setting as she learns the dynamics of being in the studio.

Valentine’s-themed shows at Forte Jazz Lounge

Rūta Smith

Local singer LaFaye is bringing her dynamic stage presence into the studio for her next songwriting project to follow up her 2019 single, “Flaws & All”

“

2020 made me think, ‘Look, sis, you need to get it together and have a plan B, have a plan C, because you just don’t know.’ ” —LaFaye

Foundational to her persona is the drive to make people dance and to master the genre-melding dynamics of powerhouse performers who have come before her. “Someone like Nina Simone is my inspiration for that,” she said. “We know her for jazz, but she infused classical jazz, blues, folk, R&B, gospel and pop into one thing.

She used all of those genres to get a message across. I try to use my platform in a way that she did — whether it’s making sure people are kind to each other, making sure people treat each other with respect, and also speaking up for women when nobody else will.” She will get a chance to tap more into jazz during her Feb. 12 shows at Gibbes Museum of Art, a P.U.R.E Concert Series Valentine’s special called “P.S., Love Is …” Besides jumping between genres, she’ll perform some of her unreleased originals she wrote during the pandemic — “you’re gonna be okay, you’re gonna be alright type of songs.” “This Valentine’s show is actually going to pan my entire love life: before I met ‘the guy,’ to when I met him, to when we got married, to when we got divorced — learning how to be okay and love again and love myself again — to being happy with just being.”

Forte Jazz Lounge will offer four evenings of music and dancing to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Vocalist Joe Clarke and the Forte house band will be joined by local singers Charles Grant and Ivory Collins at 7 p.m., Feb. 11, to present love songs through the decades. Singing sisters Gracie & Lacy will bring their signature harmonies and tap dancing Feb. 12 for an evening of hit love songs at 7 and 9:30 p.m. Feb. 13 is swing night with local swing mainstay Stephen Duane at 6 p.m., and Joe Clarke Big Band will present “Fall in Love Again” at 7 p.m., Feb. 14. —CG

Pop/Rock/Cult brings Charleston vintage covers Local cover band Pop/Rock/Cult is relatively new to Charleston, taking shape about six months ago as a fivepiece outfit with drummer/vocalist Mike Besta, bassist Sandip Roy, and guitarists/vocalists Joe Fisher, Daniel Bennett and Frank Royster. “I think there’s something for everyone,” Bennett said. Catch Pop/Rock/Cult at Burns Alley on Feb. 5 and 26, as well at the St. Patrick’s Day Block Party and Parade in Park Circle on March 12. —CG
