CORRECTION In the September 19 Development Issue, the location for the new Apex headquarters should have been identified as the parking lot on the north of ACAC’s downtown location.

Rough seas on the Rivanna at Darden Towe Park on Saturday, September 29, may have changed the location of the FLOWtilla Spontaneous Art Boat Parade, but that didn’t slow down Billy Hunt’s first-place-winning rainbow water dragon. FLOW: The Rivanna River Arts Festival, which celebrates the local waterway, was curated and organized by Chroma Projects’ Deborah McCleod, who told C-VILLE that the afternoon was an opportunity to be outdoors and enjoy the “restorative pleasure of being in nature and by the water.” In addition to showcasing work by artists and musicians, the event also featured information from several environmental organizations, including the Piedmont Group of the Sierra Club, Piedmont Environmental Council, Rivanna Conservation Alliance, Thomas Jefferson Soil and Water Conservation District, and DCR Virginia Scenic Rivers Program.

Glaring exception Interesting reading and well done [September 19 issue, ‘White hot’: Building still booming—but not for everyone].

You omitted our condo project at 1130 E. High St. called Eleven-30 condominiums, which has many features none of the others have...including sales. Richard Price, the architect and developer, has reimagined a half-acre lot and created a vibrant, small community focused around a central green space. The city wanted mixed use so we have two office condos that have the option of living above, and 10 residential condos behind, all looking onto the central, green courtyard.

From the city’s standpoint, the tax assessment will go from about $350,000 to $5,000,000—an increase of $44,000 per year in revenue for the city. Ten to 12 more families or individuals can now walk downtown. All the capital and labor was sourced locally. No building is more than two stories high.

Too dense

ON SALE THIS FRIDAY OCTOBER 5 AT 10AM JOHN PAUL JONES ARENA BOX OFFICE TICKETMASTER | 800-745-3000

I want to correct a misrepresentation in the September 19 print edition (thank you for clarifying it online) about the 1011 E. Jefferson St. project. Our neighborhood is a big fan of affordable housing. First of all, from earlier meetings neighbors attended with the developers, it seemed clear that they were going to put the promised four units of affordable housing elsewhere—in one of their less expensive buildings. Maybe the fuss we’ve made has caused them to reconsider, which would be wonderful since it has always been our preference that the affordable units be in our neighborhood.

In any case, our problem has always been with the extreme density of the building; where the special use permit allowed them to quadruple the allowed density. No transition zone. Just a 120-unit, five-story apartment building plopped into our small neighborhood of mostly modest homes.

The lawsuit was about the city process: how they ignored the advice of the planning commission and how they didn’t give us due process—the proper amount of time to speak at a hearing. We also objected to the continual postponement of the hearing until July 5, when many neighbors were away. We are disheartened at how little power neighborhoods seem to have in these dealings, and hoped our lawsuit might make a difference for other neighborhoods in the future.

t’s been an eventful couple years, and if you want to speak up when it matters (by voting in the midterms on November 6) your deadline to register is October 15. With that in mind, we also want to remind 15,000 voters in Albemarle County that their polling places have changed.

The county has added three new precincts and folded the Belfield precinct into Jack Jouett, says Albemarle registrar Jake Washburne.

Split are Cale, which begat the new Biscuit Run precinct; Crozet and Brownsville, which gave birth to Mechums River; and Free Bridge, which adds Pantops precinct.

And voters in the University precinct who had cast ballots at the soon-to-be demolished U Hall will now do so at Slaughter Rec Center.

The splits will make Election Day lines more manageable, says Washburne, and there’s another deadline he’s considering: “After February 1, 2019, we can’t change any precincts until after the 2020 presidential election.”

Some are predicting massive turnout in November. Compared to last September, Albemarle has added 2,000 voters. And Washburne mailed over 700 ballots on the first day of absentee voting, compared to 94 on the first day of the last midterm election in 2014.

In the city, registrar Rosanna Bencoach says there’s always a surge of registrations in September and October from the student population. But according to the state elections website, Charlottesville has 922 more active voters as of October 1 than it did a year ago.

Bencoach issues a caveat to would-be voters: Don’t wait until the last minute to register or to request an absentee ballot, which must be applied for by 5pm the Tuesday before the election.

“With the current postal delivery practices, that’s way too late,” she says.

Pot arrests surge Despite decriminalization and legalization around the country, Virginia’s marijuana arrests hit their highest levels in a decade last year.

Arrests statewide spiked 20 percent and convictions still carry the possibility of a six-month driver’s license suspension and up to $800 in fines, according to the Virginia Mercury.

INDIGENOUS PEOPLES DAY “We have been categorized as people of the past,” Karenne Wood, an enrolled member of the Monacan Indian Nation, told C-VILLE in March. She pointed out that in school textbooks, American Indians are often written about in the past tense: They lived in this type of house; they ate squash and corn; they wore feathers.

But she also hopes those textbooks will tell the story of Virginia Indians present and future. For Wood, director of Virginia Indian Programs at Virginia Humanities, that means working with textbook writers to tell a fuller—not just colonist—history of Native Americans.

“We have adapted to live in this century along with everybody else,” she says.

To acknowledge their history on Indigenous Peoples Day, and to give a native perspective on how the story of Virginia’s first people can be expanded, Wood will give a talk called “Stone, Bone, and Clay: Virginia Indians’ History of 18,000 Years” on Monday, October 8, from 6:30-8pm at Lane Auditorium in the Albemarle County Office Building.

Monacan tribal dancers will perform immediately following her presentation.

Charlottesville spent $921,334 over the August 12 anniversary weekend putting downtown on lockdown, and the University of Virginia reports its costs were $422,981.

Adding the Virginia State Police’s expenses of $3.1 million, that puts the police-heavy weekend at around $4.4 million—and that’s not including Albemarle County’s costs.

he city’s lengthy list of items prohibited on the Downtown Mall over the August 12 anniversary weekend swept “far too broadly,” says Judge Bob Downer. In a September 28 hearing, he dismissed a charge against a disabled veterans activist for possession of razor blades that were purchased August 11 at CVS. John Miska, 64, bought two cases of Arizona iced tea, a can of bug spray, light bulbs, and a pack of razor blades, and was arrested outside CVS for possessing prohibited items in the downtown area, where access was limited to two entry points on Water Street. Citizens attempting to walk onto the mall had to have bags and wallets searched before they were allowed to enter—although Miska was able to open carry a firearm. Metal beverage cans, aerosols, and razor blades were prohibited, but Miska was only charged for the blades.

Miska entered a not guilty plea and was represented by the Rutherford Institute, a local civil rights organization.

Virginia State Police Sergeant S.W. Johnson, one of the 700 state police in town for the weekend, testified that he’d been alerted to Miska’s plans to purchase the forbidden items because the vet “made certain statements about his intentions to go to CVS” to the checkpoint staff. Johnson stopped Miska when he came out of the store with his walker, which carried the cases of iced tea, and he said he could see the other alleged contraband in the plastic CVS bag.

“He said he had common items for household use,” said Johnson. “He said he likes tea.” Miska declined Johnson’s offer

to help him take the items to his car, and the officer took him into custody, Johnson testified.

Other people on the mall were drinking out of cans in restaurant patio areas, but Johnson did not arrest them because they appeared to be “part of private establishments,” he said.

Downer ruled in favor of Miska’s motion to dismiss, and seemed to take a dim view of the city’s ban of certain items while allowing businesses on the mall to sell them, commenting, “If the city really wanted to prohibit these items, they should have shut down all the stores that sold them.” He also said the restrictions were “too much” and that the ban was too broad.

Constitutional attorney and Rutherford president John W. Whitehead was more expansive: “This case—in which a dozen police swarmed a disabled veteran with a walker buying cans of iced tea and bug spray from a CVS—is far from the only example of a dysfunctional, excessive government that overreaches, overspends, and is completely out of sync with the spirit of the Constitution.”

Also heard in Charlottesville General District Court were five other cases of those arrested over the anniversary weekend.

Former C-VILLE Weekly contributor Toby Beard, who was charged with “obstruction of free passage” August 12 during a march from Washington Park to downtown, pleaded guilty to a lesser infraction of walking in the street when a sidewalk was available. He was given a $15 fine, which was suspended.

His attorney, Janice Redinger, said after the hearing that the commonwealth dropping the charge from a Class 1 misdemean-

John Miska was arrested for possessing the razor blades he’d just purchased at CVS.

Longtime WINA morning host given the boot

By Lisa Provence lisa@c-ville.com

R

egular listeners to WINA’s “Morning News” may have noticed the absence last week of co-host and producer Jane Foy, but they didn’t know she wasn’t coming back.

Foy, who had been on vacation and was coming back to work September 25, only learned in a phone call the night before that she was no longer on the show on which she’d worked since 2001, at the station where she’d worked for almost 20 years.

“It was a surprise,” says Foy. “You always know it’s coming because it’s the nature of the business, but you’re always shocked when it’s your time.”

The morning show is being “retooled,” Foy says she was told. The 6-10am drive-time slot will lose an hour and go down to one host (her former co-host Rick Daniels).

“It’s just a programming change,” says Charlottesville Radio Group’s general manager Mike Chiumento. “The show with Rick and Jane hasn’t changed in 11 years.” The new version will have more features from CBS and be “more like the ‘Today Show,’” he says. (Except, of course, that the “Today Show” has multiple hosts.)

“It was extremely difficult to think about and execute,” says Chiumento. “She’s just a stellar part of the community.”

“I don’t know how I’m going to wake up every morning,” says regular listener Mary Miller. “Jane’s program was centered on local events. I appreciated her ability to keep us in touch” with news around town.

“I never like hearing this stuff,” says Joe Thomas, who hosts the morning show at competitor WCHV, and says he once got fired on the way to a public event. Foy’s abrupt ouster, he says, “unfortunately is way too common in corporate radio.”

Charlottesville Radio Group includes ESPN Charlottesville, 106.5 the Corner,

3WV 97.5, Z95.1, and Country 92.7, and is owned by Michigan-based Saga Communications, which purchased the locally owned Eure Communications in 2004.

“I feel for her as somebody who’s committed this much time and effort in the community,” Thomas says. “She brought a great professionalism in journalism from the storied stations she’d worked with.”

A Pittsburgh native, Foy, 70, started her career in broadcast at a television station there nearly 50 years ago, doing film editing, public relations, and promotions. One day, a general manager at a local radio station called to ask what she thought of a show.

She described it as “yawn radio,” which must have been the right answer. He hired her to take over the program, and she became the first female AM talk show host in Pittsburgh, at age 24.

Foy’s colleagues at WINA declined to comment, including Rob Schilling, who himself was dropped by the station 10 years ago. He’d filled in as Foy’s co-host on the “Morning Show” after Dick Mountjoy, an-

other staple of local radio, died in 2008, and then Schilling was given his own show.

After Saga pulled the plug, Schilling’s fans launched a campaign to bring the conservative host back, which it did in January 2009.

State Senator Creigh Deeds was surprised to learn Foy is off the air and calls her “a voice that everybody knows and an essential part of everyone’s morning.” He’s been appearing on her show since he was first elected to the Senate in 2001, and says she’s a tough interviewer. “I knew I wasn’t going to get softball questions.”

When reached on the phone, Foy sounded upbeat, and says her severance agreement was “very satisfactory.” Another bright side: She won’t be getting up at 4am and going to bed at 8:30pm.

And despite being the full-time caregiver for her husband, who has dementia, she says she will be looking for another job and hopes to do some volunteer work as well.

She’ll still be hosting the Walk to End Alzheimer’s on October 20—only this time it won’t be as Jane Foy of WINA.

“A female approached him and begin to scream and curse,” said Hylton. Clevenger “snapped and leaned over and shouted” at Fitzhugh.

Video showed Fitzhugh screaming “go home” and “get the fuck out of my town” at Clevenger.

He replied multiple times, “If history is forgotten, you are bound to repeat it.” He also said that Fitzhugh was touching him and asked officers to arrest her. In the video, he stands saluting the statue while Fitzhugh continues to shout at him, until he suddenly turns to confront her, which, he testified, was because she insulted his father’s military service.

“I was there peacefully protesting,” said Clevenger. “You can see her spitting at me.

That’s assault.” He said he acted in self-defense when she disparaged the “honor of my father.”

Downer said the case was one of the most difficult to decide because of the latitude required by the First Amendment. But he said “the conduct of Ms. Fitzhugh certainly provoked” Clevenger’s reaction, and found Clevenger not guilty.

Outside the courthouse, anti-racist activists followed Clevenger into the Market Street Parking Garage and shouted at him and the police officers there. Clevenger sped out of the garage on a motorcycle.

Shouts of “fuck you racist” followed Miska as he left the courthouse with his attorney, Elliot Harding.

Says Miska, “Perhaps we’ve shown the screaming meemies there is a way to protest government overreach within the system.”

Chloe Lubin was charged with assault and disorderly conduct, and was ordered to do 50 hours of community service by January 31 for each charge. An obstruction of justice charge was dropped, with the condition that it could not be expunged, and a misdemeanor charge of carrying a concealed weapon also was dismissed.

North Carolina resident Algenon Cain, who was charged with two counts of trespassing, did not appear in court. He was found guilty and fined $250 on the first count, with $200 suspended, and $250 on the second charge.

Veronica Fitzhugh was charged with misdemeanor assault and entered an Alford plea, which is a guilty plea that acknowledges the prosecution has enough evidence to convict but the defendant maintains her innocence.

She was sentenced to complete 20 hours of community service by January 31.

Spotsylvania resident Martin Clevenger was charged with disorderly conduct following an encounter with Fitzhugh at Market Street Park. According to state trooper J.M. Hylton, who was standing behind a barricade in front of the Lee statue, Clevenger walked up to the statue and saluted.

M

usic and real estate mogul Coran Capshaw’s Riverbend Development, known for 5th Street Station, the Flats, and City Walk, among many other projects, is now aligning itself in a different direction: a partnership with Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority to build new public housing for residents of the crumbling Crescent Halls.

Riverbend and the nonprofit Virginia Community Development Corporation will build units on city-owned Levy Avenue—now a parking lot for city employees—and green space on South First Street.

“They’re not looking to make a profit,” says former mayor and current CRHA redevelopment project coordinator Dave Norris. “They’ve agreed to waive the developer’s fees.”

The housing authority owns and manages all public housing in Charlottesville, and had a request for proposal for a redevelopment partner, says Norris. “Riverbend submitted a proposal and rose to the top because they’re local, they know the community, and they know how to negotiate the process.”

Says Norris, “They want to be part of the solution. I don’t think it’s a coincidence Coran’s office is across the street from Crescent Halls.”

Residents have complained for years about the deteriorating condition of the Monticello Avenue highrise, including its malfunctioning elevators and air conditioning, and, earlier this year, a plumbing backup that left the first floor smelling like sewage.

The actual redevelopment of Crescent Halls is not part of phase 1, which relocates the building’s 105 households, says Norris.

He says they will be given the option of replacement units, housing vouchers, or assistance moving into market-rate housing.

The project is going to be resident-directed, he says, and Riverbend’s willingness to work with the residents is “pretty extraordinary.”

Not all are comforted by Riverbend stepping in. Community activist Jojo Robertson says, “There is much skepticism and mistrust in the community, which we must acknowledge. I am concerned that people may be homeless during this process.”

Norris acknowledges that those living in Crescent Halls have been hearing for years about redevelopment plans. “I think what residents want to see is action rather than talk.”

He notes that it’s a “long, long wait” to get in public housing, and the redevelopment plans are “not just about improving the quality, but also the quantity” of public housing.

City Councilor Wes Bellamy calls Riverbend’s foray into the affordable housing arena “major. It is absolutely major.” He says city officials have been working on the issue for years.

While Riverbend is getting a lot of accolades for its move into public housing, there’s some skepticism because the company has its own projects that will be coming before City Council, including a massive apartment and mixed-use development in the heart of Belmont.

“I think it’s specifically to curry favor, and I’m all in favor of currying favor,” says Belmont resident Joan Schatzman, who has been a critic of Riverbend’s Belmont plans, but commended its involvement in public housing.

The notoriously press-shy Capshaw did not return a request for comment from C-VILLE, nor did Riverbend president Alan Taylor.

Capshaw also manages the Dave Matthews Band and owns Red Light Management. Last week’s announcement of DMB’s upcoming tour said a portion of proceeds from the two shows at John Paul Jones Arena will support redevelopment of public housing in Charlottesville.

“C

Johnson and other resident association leaders realized they needed a collective voice to advocate for their rights. The groups “passed a hat,” as Johnson puts it, to cover the cost of filing an application for nonprofit status, and PHAR was born.

JACK LOONEY

A

Westhaven, Charlottesville’s first public housing project, was built in the 1960s to house residents displaced by the destruction of Vinegar Hill.

“This taking of black land and community was fundamentally unfair, and left a once thriving community in ruins” says Collins.

It’s something he says people have “barely had a chance to try to recover from.”

The Westhaven Tenants Association, began by its residents, was a step toward that recovery. For two decades prior to Johnson’s arrival it had been advocating for tenants’ rights—but on a relatively small scale.

“Even though the tenant organization was well-organized and on point with what they were saying, their biggest fear was to speak in front of City Council,” Johnson says. But she was more than happy to take on that role.

At her first City Council meeting, Johnson highlighted the issues the group wanted addressed—trash in yards, lack of fencing, and deteriorating conditions. At the time, the city councilors were also the housing authority board of commissioners, and they questioned Johnson’s motives, wondering if she was speaking for herself or for everyone at Westhaven.

“The idea was to make it like it was just me complaining,” she says. “They had been the city councilors and housing authority commissioners for years but had not set foot in public housing.”

Soon after that first meeting, the city councilors and other city officials toured Westhaven. After that, Johnson says, things started to move more quickly.

Still, by the late ’90s, the city had an unimpressive rating from the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development on its public housing management and maintenance. Charlottesville had eight public housing developments, most built in the 1970s and not significantly updated or improved since their construction. And while each of the housing developments had its own advocacy association, like Westhaven’s, they were generally focused on individual improvements, and sometimes pitted against one another. When it came to citywide housing policy, low-income residents still didn’t have a seat at the table.

s Johnson’s advocacy experience grew, she began traveling to national housing conferences and learning from other activists, like Willie “J.R.” Fleming.

Fleming calls himself a human rights enforcer. He was born in Chicago’s Henry Horner Homes and spent his formative years at Cabrini-Green, one of the country’s most notorious public housing complexes.

Cabrini-Green, at its height, had 3,607 units and housed more than 15,000 people on Chicago’s Near North Side. Though infamous for violence and neglect, Fleming says it’s often overlooked that the housing development also served as a community for its residents. People knew their neighbors and looked out for each other, they shared what they had with others who didn’t have as much or any, and they felt a sense of place.

Just like at Westhaven, there were CabriniGreen residents who were actively advocating for their rights as tenants—even as the buildings were coming down around them.

J.R. (stands for “Just Righteousness”) saw how his sister was forced to relocate when the city began demolishing the complex in 1995, and he was inspired to act.

At 45 years old, J.R. has now been a housing activist for more than half his life, but he says he was “an infant in organizing” when he met Johnson.

“PHAR was determined to fight off bad public housing policy regardless of who stood with them,” Fleming says. “I was impressed by their willingness to work in a collective and their commitment to learn different ways of fighting for residents’ rights.”

harlottesville’s history with public housing, like most cities’, is tainted by its direct connection to urban renewal in the 1960s,” says Brandon Collins, PHAR’s lead organizer.

The city’s first public housing development, Westhaven, was built for residents displaced by the destruction of Vinegar Hill, a 20-acre historically black neighborhood situated just west of downtown. Commercially, the land was in an incredibly valuable location, and the city used a measure allowing the new housing authority to demolish “unsanitary and unsafe” homes to force residents out. But while the neighborhood may have had some issues, like any other, it was also home to the city’s largest concentration of black-owned businesses. Former residents say it was a tight-knit, independent community.

On September 29, PHAR celebrated its 20th anniversary with a party at Carver Recreation Center.

October 3 – 9, 2018 c-ville.com

From those early tenant association meetings, Johnson went on to become an integral leader in the organization and became known for speaking up. (In the annals of Charlottesville’s local news, Johnson’s name is hard to miss.) In 1998, she helped the city’s disparate public housing associations and tenants’ groups band together into a single advocacy organization: the Public Housing Association of Residents.

PHAR gave Johnson and all of the residents of the city’s 376 public housing units a vehicle to make themselves heard. Two decades later, the organization’s role has grown from advocating for repairs and improvements to individual public housing developments to becoming a voice in the city’s ongoing debate around low-income and affordable housing.

From leading a class-action lawsuit against the city’s housing authority for excessive utility fees to making sure residents have a say in redevelopment, members of PHAR have fought for the rights of Charlottesville’s lowincome, chronically underrepresented citizens. Sixty-seven residents have taken part in PHAR’s internship program, and most have gone on to serve on PHAR’s board of directors. A handful have served on the board of the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority, which controls the city’s public housing, and more have worked on various other city boards and commissions.

Rather than passively allowing the city to determine housing policies, PHAR’s members seek to lead the city’s public and affordable housing redevelopment and improvement process. And the years of showing up at meetings, getting in front of the microphone, and saying what residents want and need has paid off. CRHA Director Grant Duffield says PHAR’s 2016 policy publication, “Positive Vision for Resident-Directed Redevelopment,” has become “a guiding document for CRHA and the community as a whole.”

“For 20 years, PHAR has shown anyone who might think otherwise that the most vulnerable members of our community can speak up and advocate for themselves,” says UVA researcher Laura Goldblatt, a member of the Charlottesville Low-Income Housing Coalition. “They’re a model of what responsible and respectful community organizing and solidarity looks like.”

Fleming and members of his Anti-Eviction Campaign, which he co-founded in 2009, partnered with PHAR to offer their expertise working in public housing advocacy.

One result is a project PHAR began last year, in collaboration with the housing authority and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville. The program trains public housing residents to repair and maintain homes, paying them to work 40 hours a week alongside Habitat volunteers and learn construction skills. With money the housing authority had allocated to repair 20 vacant public housing units, the first group of trainees set to work last spring.

Richard Shackelford, a 65-year-old Charlottesville native, is a resident of Crescent Halls and serves on PHAR’s board of directors.

He’s committed to addressing the problem of housing affordability in Charlottesville.

“I’ve been here 65 years,” he says. “I’ve got some history.” He says that working people like teachers, police officers, and nurses, who could afford to own homes in the city decades ago, are now priced out.

The median home price in Charlottesville is currently $412,700, according to Zillow. com. The median rent is $1,600—that’s roughly $1,200 more than someone making minimum wage (which is set at $7.25) could afford, according to the National Low Income Housing Coalition. “Fair market rent,” set by HUD at 40 percent of typical rents, is higher in the Charlottesville area than in 95 percent of the state.

In taking on the affordability crisis, PHAR tries to lead by example, paying its interns $11 an hour—a sum that’s significantly higher than minimum wage, if still not enough to cover Charlottesville rents.

PHAR has also incorporated the larger issue into its advocacy work. In 2017, the group worked with the Legal Aid Justice Center and other community leaders to create a new advocacy organization, the Charlottesville Low Income Housing Coalition, to push for a city housing strategy that respects low-income residents and to raise awareness of gentrification.

many cities are moving toward, does not serve many of the individuals we are proud and committed to serving here.”

Plans call first for developing new public housing on city-owned land on South First Street and on Levy Avenue. Crescent Halls tenants would move there, and that complex would be redeveloped. PHAR members and CRHA are working together to hammer out the details, ensuring that residents have a say as development moves forward.

PHAR is also working on a program that will provide economic and employment opportunities for residents as the city undertakes redevelopment and development programs, like the partnership with Habitat for Humanity. The group is no longer just “at the table,” Collins says: PHAR is setting the table, serving the food, and letting folks know when it’s time to eat.

J

ohnson has led PHAR now for two decades. As its members celebrate those years and look to the future, many of them, Johnson included, are seeking the next generation of leaders to take the helm.

“To quote my co-worker’s 5-year-old, ‘It’s important work,’ says Wandae Johnson, PHAR’s new intern coordinator. “There is a large group of people who are no longer part of our community because they couldn’t keep pace with the rising cost of living facing us over the last decade.

“Housing is related to my child’s educational outlook, my job satisfaction...It’s related to my sense of safety, and my ability to be active within my community.”

“It’s important,” she concludes. “Why isn’t everyone involved?”

“PHAR was determined to fight off bad public housing policy regardless of who stood with them,” CHICAGO HOUSING ACTIVIST J.R. FLEMING

O

ver the years, PHAR has had some contentious moments with city government, and even within the organization—some residents have criticized it as too confrontational and reactive. So the group’s Positive Vision for Redevelopment plan was built around the

idea of focusing on public housing initiatives residents support, rather than those they are against.

The organization worked with hundreds of residents to find a consensus on ways they can help lead the city’s process of improving public and affordable housing. The resulting 18-page document outlines residents’ key priorities, including green space, workforce development, and access to medical care, childcare, grocery stores, and other businesses. Residents also say they want to be kept informed and involved in decisionmaking, and want to preserve the positive aspects of existing communities.

Much of what residents are seeking in the ‘Positive Vision’ is what was lost in Vinegar Hill. Rather than simply calling for redevelopment, PHAR organizer Collins says, the document asks for an approach that places residents in control, increases affordable housing stock, confronts gentrification, and makes some amends for urban renewal and the rest of Charlottesville’s negative racial history.

CRHA Director Duffield says that while his agency and PHAR haven’t always gotten along, he is looking to change that: “I am imparting on my staff the tremendous value that PHAR brings to the issue of affordable and low-income housing,” he says.

Charlottesville’s public-housing discussion differs from the conversation in much of the rest of the country, because the city is investing not just in maintaining or renovating current properties, but in building more.

“Charlottesville is unique in saying that public housing is valuable,” Duffield says. “A system that solely embraces private, voucherbased affordable housing, which is what

ichard Shackelford—”Shack” to his friends and neighbors—grew up in Charlottesville, on the corner of Fifth and Harris Streets. In 2014, in his 60s, he moved to Crescent Halls, a public housing high-rise for elderly and disabled residents, after he and his wife lost their house.

Residents of Crescent Halls have long complained of poor maintenance and deterioration in the 105-unit building, which was built in 1976. In 2016, protesters outside the Monticello Avenue complex told of broken air conditioners and roaches. According to media reports, the cooling problems continued in 2018, when a backed-up sewage line also caused foul-smelling flooding.

When Shackelford heard about PHAR’s six-month internship program, which teaches residents to become advocates, he decided he wanted to be part of a group fighting for change.

The training initiative, begun not long after PHAR’s founding, remains one of the organization’s flagship programs, and a major part of its efforts to build capacity, or “people power,” as Johnson likes to say. The goal is to continue to build the network of community organizers and activists fighting for housing rights.

“At first, we had to help residents understand that they already had the skills, they were already ‘organizing,’” Johnson says.

“In their day-to-day lives, they are organizers. Getting kids ready for school, having a cookout, planning a trip—that’s organizing.

We’re teaching them to use those skills they already possess to become leaders.”

Nearly all the residents who complete the program go on to find jobs, the group says, and many have continued to work actively as housing advocates. Two former interns, LaTita Talbert and Audrey Oliver, are currently commissioners on the CRHA board Shackelford completed the internship in 2016. It not only showed him that his concerns were bigger than himself, it taught him how to advocate for those concerns as a part of the policy-making process. “The internship program got me motivated to help people do better,” he says. “I thank God for PHAR.” Now, Shackelford serves as a member of PHAR’s board of directors and the CRHA Redevelopment Committee, and he is vice-president of the Crescent Halls Tenant Association.

Evan Felker is full of stories, Southern twang, and soul. As frontman for the Turnpike Troubadours, Felker delivers tales of loss and love bolstered by the fiddling and electric strumming of his Oklahoman bandmates in tunes that swing from listening moments to dance-your-ass-off numbers.

Playing bigger stages hasn’t changed the band’s accessible, laid-back approach to making music. “The show is about people having fun,” Felker says. “The more fun they have, the more fun we have, and the better off everybody is.” $29, 7pm. Sprint Pavilion, 700 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. 245-4910.

When your dad and his brother and most of his friends are musical legends, the pull of the stage is in your blood. Devon Allman answered the call with a punk band at age 13, and by the time he forged a relationship with his famous dad, Gregg, at 17, he was a skilled guitarist in his own right. “I did not grow up studying the Duane [Allman] licks and knowing my dad’s catalog,” Devon told Rolling Stone. “I liked heavy metal. I liked the Cure and the Smiths. I loved blues.” His new six-piece band, The Devon Allman Project with special guest Duane Betts, pays tribute to his family legacy and showcases his 26-year career as a singer, songwriter, and guitarist. $22-25, 8pm.

athaniel Star gets most of his ideas in the shower. It’s where he ruminates on a beat, hums melodies, and devises lyrics.

When he knows he has something good, he’ll hop out of the shower, wrap himself in a towel and dash, water dripping all over the floor, into his studio to record it.

“I’ll be recording wet,” he says over pita-wrapped falafel, a cup of Moroccan stew, and a mug of “Soul Soother” tea at Twisted Branch Tea Bazaar.

He laughs while describing his song-making process, noting that while other musicians might use candles, incense, or lush fabrics to create a certain in-studio mood, all he needs is “a microphone, my computer, and some software. I don’t need candles.”

Star (a moniker, not his real name), who will play his first local live show in about a decade at The Front Porch on Saturday, grew up on South First Street and has been making music his entire conscious life. At first, he harmonized on gospel songs with his mom and sister; then he wrote country-esque songs with titles like “Hey You” on an electric guitar; and as a home-schooled teen, he snuck over to the Music Resource Center, back when it was on the UVA Corner, to rap.

Those raps, Star says, were “good from a lyrical standpoint” but also “extremely violent,” and he felt it wasn’t music he could put out into the world. If it wasn’t something his religious mother’s ears could hear, he wouldn’t release it.

Inspired by singers and songwriters like D’Angelo and Bilal, Star later sang and played guitar in local neo-soul act Acoustic Groove Trio. “Everyone [in] the audience making out, because it was real sensual music,” he says, laughing. Acoustic Groove Trio broke up about 10 years ago when the percussionist and bass guitarist moved out of town. Star stopped performing, but he continued making music.

Star released his debut solo album, Collide-A-Scope, in December 2016, and two EPs, Nat-Blac Presents: EH-SUH-TER-IK and C.R.A.C.K., this year. He works with Vintagebeatwitsoul, making beats for other artists, and he writes music for documentary films, including Tanesha Hudson’s forthcoming A Legacy Unbroken: The Story of Black Charlottesville, directed by Lorenzo Dickerson and produced by Sarad Davenport. Star has also written music for Maxine Jones (a founding member of En Vogue). By day, he’s an elevator mechanic.

All the while, he’s waited for the right moment to return to the stage. “It’s time, it’s time. It just felt right again,” he says.

“I breathe music and bleed lyrics. You can’t live without breath and blood,” Star says of his songs about life and love, songs

“Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready,” says Nathaniel Star. The soul singer and songwriter is ready to get back to performing live.

“I breathe music and bleed lyrics. You can’t live without breath and blood.” that are influenced by black culture and

by African culture, by the potential of music to heal.

“Ghetto Physics,” off of Collide-A-Scope, is a song about overcoming, and “Via Dolorosa” is a song that compares Jesus’ walk to his crucifixion to black people’s walk through life. “Everything imaginable, in a wicked way, was done to Jesus right before they killed him. Everything imaginable, in a wicked way, has been done to black people the world over,” says Star. “But in the end, of course, it’s triumphant.” Jesus rose, says Star, and in the song, he and others will, too.

“Stab me, shoot me, do whatever you can, but ultimately, I will rise again,” he says.

Star plays with genre on all of his records, oscillating between neo-soul, 1980s and ’90s R&B, funk, go-go, soul, and rap, sometimes blending the closely related genres together.

He likes to make people think, including double, even triple meanings in many of the record and song titles, and in the lyrics, too.

On the C.R.A.C.K. track “Respect the Shooter,” Star could very well be singing about shooting a gun, or shooting drugs. But he’s

actually talking about a guy who’s taking a shot with his girl.

“You need to make people feel,” says Star.

“A lot of music now just gets you amped.

There’s nothing wrong with that, but I like a full scope of emotions—get hyped, but feel vulnerable, too. Feel like you wanna go march down the street. Feel emboldened to do.”

Star records lyrics on the fly so he can capture that full scope of feeling, and he doesn’t mess with the words much after the fact—he might switch parts around, or lay

down some harmonies. “If you can create from that place, that’s the purest form,” he says. “How do you refine that?”

And while that purity, that genuine reflection of a moment, is important to Star as a musician, there’s more to it. He looks down at his bowl of Moroccan stew, chock-full of vegetables, then looks back up, inspired.

“Music should be an onion,” he says earnestly. It should be of the earth. It should be strong and sharp and robust. It should taste good, and it should make you cry. There should be layers in layers in layers. “It’s seasoning,” says Star. “And even when it’s gone, it lingers.”

bombs, Mundt says there will be more programming at The Hive that celebrates African American artists and professionals who have contributed to the Charlottesville community. UVA English professor and seamstress Lisa Woolfork will lead evening sewing classes in the lounge’s mezzanine workshop area. Mundt discovered Woolfork and her work by following the Instagram hashtag #cvilleart, which led her to Woolfork’s account @blackwomenstitch.

“I was like, ‘Is she in Charlottesville? There are black women in Charlottesville sewing?’

So I contacted Lisa,” says Mundt. “She keeps sending me project ideas. The number-one thing people have asked for is sewing classes.”

Anderson and Mundt will serve as craft-tenders behind the bar to provide tools and fuel for visitors purchasing an art project. When they’re not helping with a workshop or hosting a private party, Mundt and Anderson hope to find time for their own artistic pursuits. Anderson wants to

hat happens when two artists walk into a bar?

Ask textile artist Tobiah Mundt and painter Kim Anderson and you’ll get the same answer: It’s an immediate connection. Both women relocated to Charlottesville with their families, Mundt from northern Virginia and Anderson from Nebraska, and sought a stronger connection to the art community. This past January, Mundt was looking for a studio and felt the space where she created her wool sculptures shouldn’t be “quiet and lonely.” After her children started attending school, Anderson reached a similar conclusion: When surrounded by people, she became a better artist.

The two connected during Craft CVille’s Galentine’s Day pop-up over their shared vision for a creative and collaborative maker space. Eight months and one big renovation later, that vision will become a reality. On October 6, Mundt and Anderson will open The Hive, an art-and-craft lounge in McIntire Plaza where visitors can order up an art project along with coffee, small bites, beer, or wine.

“The art bar is 16 feet long,” Mundt says.

“The [project] tray comes with instructions and everything you need. You’ll be able to order from a seasonal menu that will change.”

For Anderson, what makes the space unique is that visitors can walk in anytime the lounge is open and create a tangible work of art. The price of each art project on The Hive’s menu will range from $1 to $20.

Coffee and treats come from Milli Coffee Roasters and Paradox Pastry.

“You’re engaging with the arts without having to invest,” Anderson says.

The lounge’s décor also celebrates the work of local artists and entrepreneurs.

Sculptor Lily Erb created The Hive’s sign and a fence surrounding an interior play area for children, and Wade Cotton of Timber Made Company created the lounge’s bar from fallen trees around Charlottesville.

Four art studios for rent inside the lounge will be named after African American-owned businesses demolished in the razing of Vinegar Hill. So far, two of the four studios have been named after Carr’s and Bell’s, Vinegar Hill businesses Mundt identified with the help of Tanesha Hudson, an activist and executive producer of the forthcoming documentary A Legacy Unbroken: The Story of Black Charlottesville.

“When my husband told me we were moving here, I Googled Charlottesville,” Mundt remembers. She says the history of Vinegar Hill was the first thing she found.

“I had to ask myself, ‘How can I raise my family here? How can I build my business to honor what happened here?’”

In addition to hosting maker workshops that range from bows and arrows to bath

What makes the space unique is that visitors can walk in anytime the lounge is open and create a tangible work of art.

continue teaching custom chalk painting and stenciling classes. Mundt plans to sculpt her wool creatures when the space isn’t busy.

She says it will be an interesting artistic challenge, as much of Mundt’s work is deeply personal. Her needle-felted creations are simultaneously haunting and child-like, akin to the stuff of science-fiction monsters or a child’s nightmare.

“I think a lot of people make assumptions about my work and about me,” Mundt says.

“The Hive is an open place. I want people to ask about [my work]. What’s scary about it?

Not all of our artists are sugary sweet artists. ...Everyone has many sides to them.”

Two artists with studios in The Hive are multi-media printmaker Emily Vanderlinden and jewelry maker Kelly Cline. Anderson and Mundt will rent the studios on a yearly basis and hope to add more artists and studios in the future. They also plan to take The Hive on the road by hosting workshops for children in the hospital.

“If you don’t have the words, you put it in sculpture or draw it,” says Mundt. “We want to make art in alternative ways.”

On any given day, Mundt says kids visiting the lounge might get to paint on the wall with their feet, or they might use “loads and loads” of what Anderson and Mundt cite as most parents’ least favorite art material: glitter.

“It will become a beautiful patina on our floor,” Anderson says.

Co-owners Tobiah Mundt and Kim Anderson will offer art projects, maker workshops, and more at their new art-and-craft lounge, The Hive.

alking into the downstage theater at Live Arts, the sounds are familiar. Vocal warm-ups have begun, and musical director Kristen Baltes shouts from the balcony that this is “real life,” signaling to the actors to fill the space with their voices (not easy to do in that room).

Seated in the hallway, with the singing in the background, is Ike Anderson, the director of Live Arts’ 2018-19 season opener, Ragtime.

“This is the craziest thing I’ve ever done,” Anderson tells me, speaking of the enormity of the task he’s undertaken, professionally and personally. “To direct the season opener for the largest theater organization in Charlottesville—and I’m black.”

The last time Live Arts had a black director was almost 10 years ago, when Ray Smith directed Lynn Nottage’s Intimate Apparel.

This season, Live Arts has two pieces directed by African Americans.

While there are still glimpses of the usually jovial Anderson, there is a new seriousness, a new shadow, that comes with directing a piece that deals with such intense issues. With a smile on his face, in jest or sarcasm, Anderson talks about the day of callbacks. He stepped out of his home excited to meet the day, take on the world, and was met by a racial slur.

Anderson took on the telling of Ragtime because he felt, “If not me, then who?” His mission is to move the audience’s understanding of what it is like to be black in America.

“This play is about white people that kill some niggas, and walk away,” says Anderson.

It’s a dark place to spend more than 10 weeks.

Based on the novel by E. L. Doctorow, (book by Terrence McNally), the musical features African Americans, upper-class whites, and Eastern European immigrants.

A well-to-do family takes responsibility for Sarah, an African American woman, who tries to bury her baby alive in the family garden because her husband has left her.

Immigrants arrive to Ellis Island hoping for a better life, only to realize that the American dream is not accessible for everyone. A socialist movement forms in New Rochelle. As New York changes, the upper-class family moves to Atlantic City to escape the aftermath of a riot. Immigrants and African Americans fight to be heard and taken seriously, taking matters into their own hands. Everyone in the story goes through a transformation, but this is not a happy musical.

Live Arts has been a pillar in the theater community for more than 20 years, and the

Ike Anderson directs Live Arts’ season opener, Ragtime. The not-so-happy musical depicts the influence of race and class through three different perspectives.

appointment of Bree Luck as Producing Artistic Director signaled a new direction for the non-profit.

“One thing we need to do at Live Arts is make sure we’re not just telling stories about a couple of white people sitting around the dinner table,” Luck told C-VILLE when she accepted the director position in 2017.

Ragtime, says Luck, is a story that draws parallels to the struggles of Charlottesville in the wake of August 12, 2017, when three people lost their lives. The musical speaks about how race and class can influence the path of a life. That influence is not always recognizable as negative or positive. With three dramaturgs, each focusing on different aspects of the time, it is clear that there is a deep commitment from the theatrical team to tell a true and visceral story.

“We’re dealing with epic issues, on a small stage—which is where Charlottesville is.

We’re dealing with epic issues, and we’re a small town,” says Luck. For some theaters this is a bucket-list show, and despite the complications of producing it, Luck rose to the challenge. “It’s my job to respond to the needs, talents, and desires of the community,” she says when explaining how the entire season was chosen. Those wants and needs

have certainly changed since the beginning of her tenure.

Deandra McDonald, who plays Sarah, says she was drawn to the role by the opportunity to tell black stories that are not normally told.

The link between this revitalization and the changes in what theater audiences want to see has direct lines to what Charlottesville has been through, and the start of the African American Heritage Center’s Charlottesville Players Guild, an all-black theater company.

More black artists are getting opportunities, and Ragtime is a part of that.

“This story is not only a black story, it’s an immigrant story, a story of privilege, and how those worlds blend,” says McDonald.

Ragtime Live Arts Through October 27

Live Arts’ Ragtime has the makings of everything that makes life-altering theater: a compelling story, a cast of Charlottesville’s best and brightest actors, and a director with vision. They have come together to tell a story that is as old as time, hoping the audience will understand that this story is still very much real life.

While there are still glimpses of the usually jovial Ike Anderson, there is a new seriousness, a new shadow, that comes with directing a piece that deals with such intense issues.

f you’re going to shamelessly mine classic films for plots, there are worse choices than Planet of the Apes. And if the goal is to keep a child occupied for two hours, you can do worse than Smallfoot. It’s the ultimate synthesis of what makes kids’ movies good without resorting to the lowest common denominator: screaming animals, musical numbers from a celebrity cast, gags for the adults, and a plot that’s smart but accessible for developing minds.

The story follows an isolated society of yetis on a remote mountaintop whose entire way of life is turned upside down when Migo (Channing Tatum) makes contact with a “smallfoot” (a human) in the form of TV wildlife celebrity Percy Patterson (James Corden). The nonexistence of the smallfoot

is written on one of many stones that outline the laws of yeti civilization, and the discovery has dire implications. If that stone is wrong, others might be too, and then what is anyone supposed to believe? The Stonekeeper (Common) keeps order with a calm, soothing confidence while denying what is plainly obvious, making him the film’s villain. But what if the stones, while not factual, serve a larger truth? What do you do when fact and truth are not the same?

When Smallfoot works, the loftiness of its story and the madcap slapstick of its presentation come together in harmony. When it doesn’t, it’s just a kids’ movie with lots of goofy hijinks. Zendaya, voicing the Stonekeeper’s daughter, has a nice little song, Corden does an enthusiastic remix of Queen’s “Under Pressure,” and Common commits to his expository rap. Tatum shows enthusiasm in his songs, and the fact that he is not as musically seasoned as his co-stars works to his character’s advantage. Migo is not an exceptional yeti in any way other than his commitment to

Michael “Doc” Doyle believes that the hardest thing you experience in life is your best chance to find out who you are.

For Doyle, a carpenter who studied metal sculpture in art school, that chance came in the form of jail time.

After battling addiction and depression, Doyle attempted suicide in such a way that he was deemed a threat to society, and he was sentenced to more than a year in jail. He spent time in a psych ward, where a counselor introduced him to mindfulness.

Upon returning to jail, he began meditating, practicing yoga, reading, and drawing. Art became part of his therapy—he’d ask the universe to send him an image as a means to understand and process what he was thinking and feeling, however difficult it was.

“These images feel gifted to me,” says Doyle of the few dozen pen-on-paper drawings exhibited in his show, “Drawings from Jail,” on view this month at the New City Arts Initiative’s Welcome Gallery.

They are allegorical images of the psyche, exhibited semichronologically beginning to the left of the gallery’s entrance.

One of the drawings, “Melancholia,” was inspired by a 1514 engraving of the same name by German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. A huddled figure hugs his knees to his chest, his back to the viewer. He’s surrounded by a host of symbols: an hourglass (time), scales (justice, balance), a gavel (a sentence), a book (knowledge), a pencil and a drawing (creativity), a sphere (the mystery of life, always right behind you). In the near distance, a tombstone (death), a ladder (a way out), as well as a village (human connection), a radiant sun, and a rainbow—hope.

Many of the drawings Doyle made while in jail aren’t on display; he used some to barter for cigarettes, food, or coffee, and gave away others that meant something to someone.

For Doyle, the show is a final send-off to a finished chapter of his life; he’s ready to move on.

He hopes the messages contained in these works will encourage people to stop avoiding and start talking about addiction and depression.

After all, Doyle says, “even though these images are deeply personal, they are universal.”

Guadalajara turns 30 this month, and everyone’s invited to a three-day birthday celebration, which will include discounted meals and giveaways at all four restaurant locations.

But for all its warmth and history, the future of the downtown Guadalajara is not clear. “The only sad part about this restaurant is that I never bought the building,” Lopez says. “My mistake.”

In 2016, the city acquired the site of the original Market Street branch and the neighboring Lucky 7 convenience store. When their leases expire, in roughly three years, both businesses may be demolished to make way for a parking garage.

Still, former City Manager Maurice Jones, who stepped down in July, left open the possibility of bringing the businesses back as tenants in a future mixed-use development.

“I’m hoping for that,” says Lopez. We bet the Guad’s downtown regulars are, too.

Although upwards of 25 new Mexican places have pushed their way into the area since Guadalajara’s founding, the Mexican eatery has managed to hold on to its place in the city’s heart.

body,” Lopez acknowledges, “but I feel if I have good service, good food, and a clean restaurant, it won’t bother me.” Lopez says Guadalajara stands out for its authentic dishes, like traditional Mexican mole and enchiladas. His sugar-rimmed jumbo margaritas, too, are a crowd favorite.

The welcoming atmosphere Lopez describes is so pervasive it can actually be anticipated from the parking lot, where mariachi music spills out onto the asphalt.

Inside, gleeful guitar riffs pepper the space like piñata confetti.

What’s the best part of this gig? Lopez, time and again, underscores the joy he gleans from serving people. Every so often, he pauses politely in the interview to toss a sincere, “How are you?” to a familiar customer. “They take care of me,” he says, “so I take care of them.”

Ornelas, a frequent presence in the dining room all these years later, agrees. “[I like to] actually serve the customers,” he says.

hen Gilbert Lopez and his family opened the original downtown Guadalajara, named after Lopez’s hometown in Mexico, he had only 20 years of life under his belt and a pooled savings of $18,000 in his back pocket. The early years were synonymous with sacrifice, meaning 14-plus-hour shifts and tight circumstances. “My son, my wife—we all lived in one one-bedroom apartment for probably three or four years until we got the restaurant going and could afford…a better [place],” he says.

The Guadalajara founding fathers—Lopez, his wife’s cousin, Juan Ornelas, and his father-in-law, Jesús Arellano—banded together to establish one of only a handful of Mexican eateries in the Charlottesville area on October 10, 1988. The landlord before them had recently folded a restaurant of the same kind. “I don’t think he thought I was going to make it,” Lopez recalls. “He probably saw me as a young kid who didn’t know what he was doing.” Ornelas, in a phone interview, remembers telling his 20-something self to hang tight and keep the faith— to “wait and see what happens.”

Now, nearly 30 years later, Guadalajara is a local chain and a Charlottesville institution. On a mild early autumn afternoon, Lopez is back in the original location off East Market Street, excitedly relaying the details of the restaurant’s forthcoming threedecade celebration.

A cluster of framed awards are arrayed above the hostess station, each a testament to the joint’s influence. A crowd of lunchgoers pressing nearer to their chips and salsa, colorful fajitas, and cheese-sprinkled beans serves as further confirmation that Guad is the place to be.

It didn’t take long for Guadalajara’s name to gain ground, and in the early ’90s a Greenbrier Drive location was added to the map.

Branches on Fontaine Avenue and Pantops soon followed. Although upwards of 25 new Mexican places have pushed their way into the area since Guadalajara’s founding, the Mexican eatery has managed to hold on to its place in the city’s heart. “[Increased competition] eats up on the market for every-

Raw and ready Dairy herdshares give members access to unprocessed milk

Charlottesville

MARKETS CITY MARKET Every Saturday 100 Water Street April – October 7:00 am – 12:00 pm November – December 8:00 am – 1:00 pm

SWEET LAND FARM

Managed and operated by City of Charlottesville Parks & Recreation

Buy into a herdshare, and you’ll get a weekly delivery of unpasteurized, unhomogenized milk produced by the grass-fed cows at Sweet Land Farm.

@eatdrinkcville

Shop fresh produce, herbs, plants, grass-fed meats, crafts, and baked goods from over 100 local vendors.

SNAP accepted at both markets.

October 3 – 9, 2018 c-ville.com

or proponents of raw milk, there’s simply no substitute: “No other health food is so easy and so complete to consume,” says Robby Lisenby of Sweet Land Farm. Fans of unpasteurized, unhomogenized milk from grass-fed cows say it contains more enzymes, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals than processed milk, that it boosts immunity through its abundant probiotics, and that it can ease a panoply of health problems from allergies to eczema.

You’ll often find raw milk users making yogurt, cheese, and kefir at home, too.

As for safety, advocates say raw milk contains its own anti-microbial system and is safe when good farming practices are followed. Government agencies don’t tend to agree, which is why you can’t buy raw milk in Virginia. But wait! There is still a way to access the stuff without keeping your own cow. A “herdshare” arrangement lets milk drinkers become the part-owners of a dairy herd, then pay a farmer a fee to care for the cows and bottle their milk.

At Sweet Land Farm, for example, where Lisenby and his wife Erin tend 17 cows in Franklin County, members pay $55 to buy

into the herdshare, then $11.25 weekly for a boarding fee that includes a gallon of raw milk, delivered to three different Charlottesville locations. (Extra gallons are $9.25 weekly.) He’s been at it for eight years and, with 300 members, is beginning to feel that his farm is sustainable. “It’s a really hard life,” he says, “but we’re finally not at the point where we’re struggling every day.”

Like Lisenby, Ben Beichler of Middlebrook’s Creambrook Farm stresses that testing every batch of milk for safety is one of his most important practices. He and his wife Kristen launched Creambrook in 2017 but he’s been raising cows for about a decade, and now has around 100 members. To buy into his herdshare costs $34 and the boarding fee is $10 per week, including a gallon of milk. Beichler delivers to several spots in Charlottesville as well as others outside town.

Raw milk doesn’t only come from cows.

Kathy Mullins keeps 80 goats at A Better Way Farm—soon to move from the Shenandoah Valley to just outside Charlottesville—and charges a $40 buy-in fee plus $40 monthly for a boarding fee that includes half a gallon of raw goat’s milk each week.

Her members pick up milk right on the farm, the better to meet the goats.

Lucky for us, pork’s fatty cut is here to stay

P

ork belly has been the darling of restaurant kitchens—from gastropubs to bistros to fine-dining rooms—for more than a decade now, and the fatty cut doesn’t appear to be going anywhere.

“It appeals to a lot of people,” says Parallel 38’s Justin Ross, whose pork belly gyro recently won top prize at the Cured Central Virginia Bacon Festival. “There are just so many things you can do with it—what kind of smoke you use, how you cook it, what you pair it with.”

Take that gyro. Parallel shaves roasted belly thin and pan fries it before layering it on grilled naan with Lebanese yogurt, pickled shallots, cucumber, and arugula.

The multi-step preparation yields a pile of meat that’s mostly crisp, but with tender strands tangled throughout.

And that’s not the only place you’ll see pork belly on the Parallel 38 menu; whole chunks of roasted belly are also seared “a la plancha” for texture and served with a cherry gastrique.

Craig Hartman at The Barbeque Exchange agrees that pork belly—”one of the best cuts there is”—thrives on its versatility. At the Exchange, you can take away belly in bulk, in bites, on a platter with sauce and sides, or along with lettuce and tomato for a refined BLT. Ross says pork belly’s popularity has only been heightened by the current bourbon craze. The smokiness of the barrel-aged spirit, whether sipping it neat or blending it into glazes and garnishes, pairs perfectly with bacon’s more authentic cousin.

And while pork belly might never be a standard in personal kitchens, Ross says it’s perfect for restaurants looking to get the biggest bang for their buck.

“For people at home, pork belly takes up more space, and most people just don’t want to work with it,” he says. “For a restaurant that’s going through it more quickly, you wouldn’t buy just bacon when you can buy the whole side of pig and break down the belly.”—Shea Gibbs

By Rob Brezsny

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Japanese entrepreneur Hiroki Terai has created a business that offers crying therapy. His clients watch short videos specially formulated to make them weep. A professional helper is on hand to gently wipe their tears away and provide comforting words. “Tears have relaxing and healing effects,” says an Okinawan musician who works as one of the helpers. Terai adds, “It has been said that one drop of tear has the effect of relieving stress for a week.” I wish there were a service like this near where you live, Scorpio. The next two weeks will be a perfect time to relieve pent-up worry and sadness and anxiety through cathartic rituals like crying.

What other strategies might work for you?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Fling out friendly feelers!

Sling out interesting invitations! Figure out how to get noticed for all the right reasons!

Make yourself so interesting that no one can resist your proposals! Use your spunky riddle-solving powers to help ease your tribe’s anxieties. Risk looking odd if that will make you smarter! Plunk yourself down in pivotal places where vitality is welling up! Send out telepathic beams that say, “I’m ready for sweet adventure. I’m ready for invigorating transformation!”

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “Someone spoke to me last night, told me the truth,” writes poet Dorianne Laux. “I knew I should make myself get up, write it down, but it was late, and I was exhausted from working. Now I remember only the flavor.” I offer these thoughts, Capricorn, in the hope that they’ll help you avoid Laux’s mistake. I’m quite sure that crucial insights and revelations will be coming your way, and I want you to do whatever’s necessary to completely capture them so you can study and meditate on them at length.

Aquarius

63

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson offers this observation: “When you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. [But] the most successful people in life recognize that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation.” I think Tyson’s simple wisdom is exactly what you need to hear right now, Libra. You’re primed for a breakthrough in your ability to create your own fate.

Christ’s sake, you didn’t invent sunlight.

There was sun dazzle before you. But you talk as if you made light or discovered it.” I hope his frisky tone might inspire you to try something similar with your own idols. It would be healthy to be more playful and lighthearted about anything or anyone you take too seriously or give enormous power to.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): In his book Till We Have Faces, C. S. Lewis writes, “Holy places are dark places. It is life and strength, not knowledge and words, that we get in them. Holy wisdom is not clear and thin like water, but thick and dark like blood.” In that spirit, and in accordance with astrological omens, I suggest you seek out dark holy places that evoke wonder and reverence, even awe. Hopefully, you will be inspired thereby to bring new beauty into your life. You’ll be purged of trivial concerns and become receptive to a fresh promise from your future life.

Aries (March 21-April 19): Electra is an action-packed story written by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles. It features epic characters taking drastic action in response to extreme events. In contrast to that text is Marcel Proust’s novel In Search of Lost Time, which draws from the sensitive author’s experiences growing up, coming of age, and falling in love, all the while in quest for meaning and beauty. Author Virginia Woolfe compared the two works, writing, “In six pages of Proust we can find more complicated and varied emotions than in the whole of the Electra.” In accordance with astrological omens, I recommend that you specialize in the Proustian mode rather than the Sophoclean. Your feelings in the next five weeks could be as rich and interesting and educational as they have been in a long time. Honor them!

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Researchers in Maryland have created a new building material with a strength-to-weight ratio that’s eight times better than steel. It’s an effective insulator, and in some forms can be bent and folded.

Best of all, it’s biodegradable and cost-effective. The stuff is called nanowood, and is derived from lightweight, fast-growing trees like balsa. I propose that we make it your main metaphor for the foreseeable future.

Why? Because I think you’re primed to locate or create your own version of a flexible, durable, robust building block.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): The U.S. Secretary of Defense paid an official visit to Indonesia early this year. The government arranged for him to observe soldiers as they demonstrated how tough and well-trained they were. Some of the troops shimmied through broken glass, demolished bricks with their heads, walked through fire, and bit heads off snakes. I hope you won’t try stunts like that in the coming weeks, Gemini. It will be a favorable time for you show off your skills and make strong impressions. You’ll be wise to impress important people with how creative and resourceful you are. But there’s no need to try too hard or resort to exaggeration.

Cancer (June 21-July 22): i confess that i have a fuzzy self-image. With odd regularity, i don’t seem to know exactly what or who i am. For example, i sometimes think i’m so nice and polite that i need to toughen up. But on other occasions i feel my views are so outrageous and controversial that i should tone myself down. Which is true? Often, i even neglect to capitalize the word “i.” You have probably experienced some of this fuzziness,

my fellow Cancerian. But you’re now in a favorable phase to cultivate a more definitive self-image. Here’s a helpful tip: We Cancerians have a natural talent for inspiring people to love us. This ability will come in especially handy as we work on making an enduring upgrade from i to I. Our allies’ support and feedback will fuel our inner efforts to clarify our identity.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): “I am a little afraid of love, it makes me rather stupid.” So said author Simone de Beauvoir in a letter she wrote to her lover, Nelson Algren. I’m happy to let you know, Leo, that during the next 12 months, love is likely to have the opposite effect on you.

According to my analysis of the astrological omens, it will tend to make you smarter and more perceptive. To the degree that you expand your capacity for love, you will become more resilient and a better decision-maker. As you get the chance to express love with utmost skill and artistry, you will awaken dormant potentials and boost your personal power.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your theme in the coming weeks is the art of attending to details.

But wait! I said “the art.” That means attending to details with panache, not with overly meticulous fussing. For inspiration, meditate on St. Francis Xavier’s advice: “Be great in little things.” And let’s take his thought a step further with a quote from author Richard Shivers: “Be great in little things, and you will be given opportunity to do big things.” Novelist Tom Robbins provides us with one more nuance: “When we accept small wonders, we qualify ourselves to imagine great wonders.

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): As a young man, Aquarian poet Louis Dudek struck up a correspondence with renowned poet Ezra Pound, who was 32 years older. Dudek “admired him immensely,” and “loved him for the joy and the luminosity” of his poetry, but also resented him “for being so magnificent.” With a mix of mischief and adulation, Dudek wrote a poem to his hero. It included these lines: “For
