As the lead plaintiff in the groundbreaking lawsuit Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt, Hagstrom Miller successfully fought those laws in Texas, and now she’s bringing the fight to FEATURE 18 Virginia (Falls Church Medical Center v. Oliver is set for spring 2019). But her real mission is broader—to eliminate the shame and stigma surrounding abortion, and treat women facing the “crisis point” of an unplanned pregnancy with compassion, dignity, and respect.

That’s important work, and it’s not the work of one lawsuit, one year, or even one lifetime.

I’m writing this on the morning of Election Day, a day that could bring historic levels of women, people of color, and first-time candidates into governor’s mansions and the halls of Congress. But no matter what the midterm results, the task of making sure that everyone is represented, that all voices get heard, and all people get treated with compassion, dignity, and respect, is a long game.

Martin Luther King III addressed a sold-out Virginia Film Festival crowd at the Paramount Theater on Saturday, November 3, following the premiere of Charlottesville, a documentary about the August 2017 violent white supremacist demonstrations in the city and at the University of Virginia. Earlier in the day, the son of Martin Luther King Jr., who was 10 years old when his father was assassinated, spoke at Old Cabell

Volume 30, Number 45

Hall, where his dad had stood before students, faculty, and community members 55 years earlier. Larry Sabato, whose UVA Center for Politics was one of the documentary’s producers, told the Paramount audience that the elder King, who was invited to the university by a small group of African American students, drove himself up from Georgia, and called for increased enrollment of black students at Southern colleges. According to Sabato, the standing-room-only crowd that day included no members of UVA’s administration, which had branded King a “troublemaker.”

UVA’s Student Hip-Hop Organization and I.M.P. Society denounced “blatant discrimination and violence” at an October 27 party they hosted at Beta Theta Pi, the Cav Daily reports. After deciding not to allow additional guests, white guys guarding the doors let their friends in, and fraternity members set up a separate, exclusive space from other partygoers, creating an unwelcome environment for minority students.

The fraternity apologized November 2.

irginia ranks as one of the worst states in the country when it comes to ease of voting, according to a recent study from Northern Illinois University. Our state has slipped in the “cost of voting index” since 1996, when we ranked No. 42, to the “second most difficult” place to vote in 2016—just ahead of Mississippi, says co-author Michael Pomante.

Voter fraud is often cited as the reason for the restrictions, but Pomante says, “We don’t see voter fraud in other states that make it easier to vote.”

And what does No. 1 look like? That would be Oregon, home to automatic voter registration and where every voter on the

rolls is mailed a ballot, which can be mailed or dropped off, says Pomante. “It makes voter turnout much higher.”

The next step for researchers is to look at voter disenfranchisement, says Pomante. “We do know there’s a correlation with minority population and voting. States with higher minority populations make it more difficult to vote.”

And on the cost of voting index, most Southern states wallow in the bottom half of the scale.

 Voter registration deadline: It’s three weeks before Election Day, while some states have same-day registration, automatic registration, or even pre-registration for those about to turn 18.  Photo ID: without it, voters have to cast provisional ballots.  No early voting.  Absentee voting: You’d better have a darn good excuse to do so.  Felon disenfranchisement: While not quite as bad as Florida, where 10 percent of the citizens can’t vote because they’ve spent time in jail, Virginians who have served their time have to petition the governor to get back their voting rights.

Transit boss declares CAT buses bug-free During the summer, C-VILLE Weekly learned of Charlottesville Area Transit drivers being plagued by irritations that they attributed to bug bites. The city confirmed it was aware of “two or three cases,” but said the drivers had not seen the bugs they believed responsible for the bites.

“They have never found a thing,” says transit director John Jones.

“There aren’t any bugs on the buses. There are bugs on people.”

When passengers visibly sporting bugs catch the CAT, says Jones, “We call Foster’s Pest Control immediately.”

City buses are vacuumed every night, cleaned every week, and

bug-bombed regularly, he says. In fact, one driver’s rash came from the cleaning products. “They’re harsh,” says Jones.

A new trolley will have hard plastic seats to further thwart insect infestations, he says.

He also notes that a sofa in the drivers lounge that employees wouldn’t touch was replaced by a leather one that turned up in the city warehouse. “One of the judges downtown was getting rid of some nice furniture.”

Jones reassures CAT riders: “We never found an infestation of bed bugs or anything.”

Uninvited callers Activists confront United Daughters of the Confederacy

A

s the United Daughters of the Confederacy gathered in Richmond last week for its annual convention, members were met with some unexpected visitors.

Around four dozen demonstrators from Charlottesville and Richmond, many of them wearing hats, pearls, and white gloves, stood outside the UDC’s mausoleum-like headquarters on the Boulevard on November 4. They came to accuse the bastion of genteel Southern womanhood of perpetuating white supremacy through the Lost Cause narrative in textbooks, Confederate monuments, and an early alliance with the Ku Klux Klan.

The ladies were scheduled to dedicate a flagpole and plaque at their headquarters that afternoon, but they canceled the event when they got word that activists—“outside agitators” is how Virginia Flaggers describe them—planned to show up.

Protesters carried signs that read, “Even white people are tired of white supremacy,” “UDC: Take back your statues and your booKKKs,” and “No shrines to white supremacy. Take ’em down now.”

The United Daughters of the Confederacy erected hundreds of Confederate monuments across the South, including the recently toppled “Silent Sam” in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and the “Johnny Reb” statue in Charlottesville’s Court Square. And they’ve been known to sue when localities try to remove them. The Daughters’ Shreveport, Louisiana, chapter filed suit when the parish tried to remove a Confederate statue in front of the courthouse after last year’s Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville. And the UDC sued Vanderbilt University in 2002 when it wanted to rename a dorm called Confederate Memorial Hall.

“The UDC are the ladies behind the Lost Cause lie,” says activist and UVA religious studies professor Jalane Schmidt. They got textbooks into schools that “poisoned the minds of generations of white Southerners,” she says, and normalized “white supremacy as ‘heritage.’”

Protester and Charlottesvillian Anne Garland Mahler, dressed in a peach dress with a hat and white gloves, says, “We’re taking our Southern heritage back.”

Hat-wearing protesters gathered in front of the United Daughters of the Confederacy headquarters in Richmond to ask the group to take back the monuments it had planted throughout the South.

A few Daughters of the Confederacy emerged from their headquarters to check out the demonstration.

EZE AMOS

The UDC was founded in 1894—almost 30 years after the Civil War had ended. Reconstruction was over and Jim Crow laws were reasserting white supremacy. The organization’s members say its mission is to honor the memory of those who fell during the “War Between the States,” as they prefer to dub the Civil War, as well as “historical, educational, benevolent, and patriotic” efforts.

But activists say the group quietly has done more to spread white supremacy than other more flagrantly racist organizations, by recasting the history of the war the South lost into a noble Lost Cause myth. In 1914, one of its members, Laura Martin Rose, praised the KKK in her book, The Ku Klux Klan or Invisible Empire. Schmidt brought copies of that tome to return to the UDC. On Sunday, three Daughters of the Confederacy braved the crowd to check out the demonstrators, and one asked who the organizer was. Another proclaimed, “I’ve never encountered such hatred.”

UDC member Peggy Palmer, from South Carolina, declared, “It’s a bunch of bullcrap,” and said the demonstrators didn’t know their history.

But she seemed unaware of a 1926 UDC marker honoring the KKK outside Charlotte, North Carolina, highlighted in a Daily Beast article on the UDC that ran the same day, and she asked a reporter and a couple of protesters where the marker was.

Trey Peters with the Richmond chapter of Democratic Socialists of America talked to Palmer, and he describes the reaction of the Daughters as one of “indignation. They were very unhappy with our demonstration.”

The ladies recently got into a feud with Virginia Humanities’ Encyclopedia Virginia and its entry on the UDC that documents its role in white supremacy. Ginger Stephens, the president of the Virginia Division of the United Daughters of the Confed-

eracy, urged members to write the encyclopedia to correct its “negative article” on the organization.

Editor Brendan Wolfe responded with an article titled “United Daughters of the Confederacy & White Supremacy” to explain how the ladies’ seemingly benevolent work to care for Confederate widows, raise funds for monuments, and sponsor essay contests for white students turned the Lost Cause narrative into a “nostalgic elevation of a society the foundation of which was the violent enslavement of other human beings.”

Under the Lost Cause, the Civil War was not about slavery, but about states’ rights. African Americans wrenched from their families and homeland in chains were portrayed as better off as slaves under well-meaning masters who introduced them to Christianity.

“By asserting that slavery was not that bad and that white people had always acted honorably and in the best interests of blacks, the Lost Cause became an argument for a society in which white people belonged at the top of the order and blacks at the bottom,” writes Wolfe.

“That’s white supremacy.”

Stephens did not immediately respond to a request for comment, nor did four other Daughters of the Confederacy contacted by C-VILLE. Several of the demonstrators also are descended from Confederates—and they weren’t celebrating that legacy. Richmonder Pat Bjork and her sister, Martha Wright, carried signs noting their greatgrandfather was a Confederate doctor. “Honoring Confederates is not ‘history,’ it’s wrong,” says Wright’s sign, and both urged resistance to white supremacy.

Schmidt considered the Daughters’ cancellation of their dedication a success for the demonstrators.

“The Lost Cause needs to be lost once and for all.” she says.

ive anti-racist activists were in court October 30, following their arrests at an August 30 special meeting of the Albemarle County School Board. But many community members feel like only one received the verdict she deserved.

While Lara Harrison’s trespassing charge was dropped, four others were convicted of trespassing or obstruction of justice.

“There’s a little history to this,” said defense attorney Janice Redinger, who represented Harrison and Andrea Massey.

Both moms were charged with trespassing after allegedly disrupting the meeting and refusing to leave.

At an August 23 meeting, the activists —many with the Hate-Free Schools Coalition of Albemarle County—showed up to speak during the public comment period to ask the school board to ban Confederate imagery from the division’s dress code. Most didn’t get the chance.

Redinger said in court that Harrison was the only person allowed to speak before the school board shut the meeting down for alleged disruption. Activists were snapping their fingers in agreement with Harrison’s comments, “the least disruptive thing that one can do in order to share your support,” Redinger pointed out. But the school board alleges other disruptive activity, such as cheering.

The aborted meeting was continued August 30, but the school board did not allow for any public comment. So some activists decided to hold their own “community meeting” in the lobby outside Lane Auditorium, she said.

These activists, including Harrison, began chanting, singing, and clapping for their cause. Alleging that they were still

disrupting the meeting happening inside the auditorium behind closed doors, County Executive Jeff Richardson testified that he approached Harrison and another woman and asked multiple times, “Please quiet down or you will have to leave.” He said he never specifically directed any officer to begin making arrests. “My goal was for the group to just quiet down.”

Richardson said he turned to Lieutenant Terry Walls and expressed concern that the activists weren’t quieting down or leaving, and Walls testified that he then began making arrests, starting with Harrison.

Redinger argued that the arrest was unconstitutional because Richardson never explicitly directed Walls to break out the handcuffs. Judge William Barkley agreed, and dropped Harrison’s charge.

“It was vindicating...to hear that the judge agreed that it was an unjust arrest,” says Harrison. “At the same time, I felt very anxious for my co-defendants.”

Massey, Redinger’s second client, wasn’t as lucky. She was inside Lane Auditorium peacefully protesting with tape over her mouth, holding a large banner that said, “RACISTS DON’T GET RE-ELECTED.” Witnesses agreed that the board meeting remained uninterrupted until an unnamed woman burst into the room to call for help, yelling that activists outside were being “brutalized” by police. Board Chairwoman Kate Acuff ordered her out, and Massey, speaking for the first time, said, “You’re being ridiculous.”

Immediately, Acuff ordered Massey to leave as well and directed the police toward her, Redinger said. Redinger argued that the meeting had already been disrupted when the woman burst in, and there were no grounds to arrest Massey.

NEWS But the judge said Massey’s failure to leave after being asked to by Acuff and an officer was enough to find her guilty of trespassing.

Sabr Lyon, who was inside the meeting with Massey, was also found guilty of trespassing.

With tape over her mouth, and holding her own sign, Lyon stepped away from her seat and moved closer to the podium at the front of the auditorium. But her defense attorney, Andrew Sneathern, said she never said a word until she was being arrested.

According to prosecutor Juan Vega, Acuff gave Lyon a warning and asked her to leave. Her arresting officer testified he wasn’t specifically asked to arrest her and said he attempted to get her to leave without being arrested. Lyon allegedly said, “It’s up to you,” and left peacefully when he cuffed her and escorted her out.

Last up was Francis Richards, who got caught in the commotion outside of the auditorium. He said he saw a man grab a friend of his and he inserted himself between them to protect her.

The man turned out to be Deputy Police Chief Greg Jenkins, who was in plainclothes

County school board member questions origin of fossil fuels and existence of climate change

By C-VILLE writers

S

cience class was in session at an October 25 Albemarle County School Board meeting, when board member Jason Buyaki paused to question not only the existence of climate change but also the nature of fossil fuels themselves.

Buyaki, who represents the Rivanna District, recently wore a tie bearing pictures of Confederate flags to a meeting to consider banning Confederate imagery from county schools. He later told the Daily Progress he chose his neckwear as a historical lesson about “various flags flown over the U.S.” His latest lessons, this time in geology and climatology, came as the board discussed a proposal for county schools to commit to using renewable energy sources and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Buyaki’s ire focused on the proposed resolution’s second paragraph, which said, “there is scientific consensus regarding the reality of climate change and the recognition that human activity, especially the combustion of fossil fuels that create greenhouse gases, is an important driver of climate change.”

“When I read this thing, there’s a lot of hot buzzwords in here and phrases that are questionable, and we should question it,” he

Gasapo not guilty, veteran gets protective order Veteran and activist John Miska, who was followed by a group of protesters and called a “Nazi” after a recent court hearing, filed a criminal charge for abusive language against a member of what he called a “mob.” On November 5, a judge found her not guilty.

Judge Robert Downer ruled that her speech is protected, and noted that there was no evidence showing Gasapo making physical contact with Miska.

“As you know, in this community, we have been pushing the limit of the First Amendment,” said the judge.

Miska, who has a disability that requires him to use a cane, said Gasapo spit on him and that her behavior intimidated him.

He called an officer who observed the interaction to testify.

The cop confirmed that a large crowd followed Miska and screamed at him, but said he couldn’t remember the details.

and who testified that he announced he was an officer. But several others testified that they didn’t hear him and had no idea who he was.

Richards, who was charged with trespassing and obstruction of justice, was found guilty of the latter.

The prosecutor asked for a 60-day jail sentence for Richards because his encounter was physical, and 30-day sentences for Massey and Lyon. He wanted all of the activists to be banned from the county office building and school board meetings for two years.

The judge suspended the sentences on the condition of good behavior for two years, but chose to convict them to send a message. Samantha Peacoe, who was also arrested for obstruction of justice, entered a plea deal before the trials and was sentenced to 30 days with all time suspended.

“We’re disappointed but not surprised by the judge’s upholding of white supremacy by targeting and finding guilty peaceful protesters that should have never been arrested in the first place,” says Harrison.

“Every time we’re faced with the state trying to silence us and intimidate us into stopping what we’re doing, we just show up stronger.”

Walt Heinecke, an associate professor at UVA who observed the trials, says he found them “troubling and problematic.”

It’s as if public dissent has become illegal, he adds.

“We’ve gotten to a point where if someone snaps their fingers, it’s a national security threat.”

Firearm safety comes to high school health class

harlottesville’s physical education teachers are already tasked with teaching a range of heavy topics in health class, from the dangers of opioid addiction to how to avoid unhealthy relationships. Now, gun safety will be added to the list.

Fifteen of the city school division’s PE teachers traded a day in the gym last week for a day in the classroom, where they joined volunteers from the local chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. The group shared a training it developed called “Be SMART,” and asked the educators to take the information back to their school communities. Meanwhile, the school division will be working on adapting the curriculum for 10th graders at CHS, who will be the first in the area to learn it in a classroom.

“In America, we do have an issue with gun violence,” says Kristen Martin, a Moms Demand Action volunteer. She presented a range of security methods parents can use, including free gun locks handed out by many police departments upon request, and expensive safes that a gun owner can open only with his handprint.

Securing all firearms, unloaded and away from ammunition, is “the single most important thing we can do,” to protect against accidents, suicides, and kids toting their parents’ guns to school to commit mass shootings, she adds.

Moms Demand Action is now working with Jessica Brantley, the city school division’s health and physical education instructional coordinator, who will implement the gun safety course at CHS. “They’re almost adults, so soon they’ll possibly be able to own a firearm and be responsible for its use,” says Brantley.

“They will then have to understand the risk

of having it in a home where there are other people.”

And it’s important for students to be trained on proper gun use, she adds. “If they are going to use them, it’s just like driving a car—you don’t just get in and drive.”

The gym teacher of 16 years says she thinks students will be shocked by some of the statistics presented by Moms Demand Action.

Every year, nearly 300 children under age 18 unintentionally shoot themselves or someone else—often fatally. American kids are 11 times more likely to die from gun violence than those in other developed countries. And 1.7 million children in the U.S. live in homes with guns that are both loaded and unlocked.

Priya Mahadevan, the leader of Charlottesville’s Moms Demand Action chapter, says they initiated the training because educators are crucial to the conversation of gun violence and school safety.

“We are proud of this inroad we’ve made and we hope that this will be the first of many in our school districts,” she says.

he confirmation of conservative Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court has raised fears that Roe v. Wade could be undercut or even overturned. In fact, abortion access has been under attack for decades by restrictive state laws and regulations (more than a thousand restrictions have been passed since Roe, almost a third of them between 2010 and 2016).

But Charlottesville’s Amy Hagstrom Miller is fighting back. As the lead plaintiff in Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt, she helped secure a crucial victory against abortion restrictions in Texas, which has since been used in at least 12 other states. Now, she’s challenging similar restrictions in Virginia. Being a plaintiff, she says, serves her broader mission: to eliminate the stigma and shame surrounding abortion. On that front, she says, “I’m a ninja.”

Hagstrom Miller is founder, president, and CEO of Whole Woman’s Health LLC, which operates seven abortion clinics in Texas, Maryland, Illinois, and Missouri as well as its newest clinic in Charlottesville.

Most provide comprehensive gynecological care in addition to abortion services. Whole Woman’s Health is “committed to providing holistic care for women,” says its website, and the design of its clinics and offices make that stance clear: Walls are painted a soft lilac, clinic rooms are named for notable women (including Heather Heyer), and empowering quotes from Rosa Parks, Frida Kahlo, Eleanor Roosevelt, and other influential women are stenciled everywhere.

The Charlottesville clinic is on a quiet, tree-lined street; its waiting room has wood floors, a working fireplace, herbal tea, and purple fleece blankets. But outside, the precautions are evident—the signage is small, the parking lot is hidden behind the building, and entry is controlled by intercom.

Hagstrom Miller, 51, is tall, strongly built, and smartly dressed. She looks like the high school athletic champion she was, and like the national entrepreneur she is. Her square black glasses are stylish, her blond hair is

Amy Hagstrom Miller is the founder, president, and CEO of Whole Woman’s Health LLC, which operates seven abortion clinics in Texas, Maryland, Illinois, and Missouri, as well as its newest clinic in Charlottesville. “I don’t care whether a woman has an abortion [or not],” says Hagstrom Miller. “But whatever she decides should be provided with dignity.”

Amy Hagstrom Miller wants to change the narrative around abortion streaked, and her lipstick is bright. Her appearance is part of her work, as she sees it, to take on and take down stereotypes. When she went to hearings in front of Texas legislators, she wore business suits and pearls to counter their preconceived ideas about “abortionists.”

Now a nationally known advocate, she continues to spend time in her Charlottesville clinic working with patients and staff, making sure that both feel supported.

Midwestern roots

Nearly one in four American women will have an abortion during their reproductive years (15-45). This means it’s likely a woman you know has had or will have an abortion.

with effective sex education, reproductive counseling, and affordable birth control. One example she cites: In 2009, a grant from billionaire Warren Buffett’s family underwrote low-cost or free IUDs in Colorado’s public health clinics, and over the next eight years the teen pregnancy rate dropped by half and the teen abortion rate by almost two-thirds.

A different approach Hagstrom married her college boyfriend, Karl Miller, and in 1994 the couple moved to New York City. Karl started graduate work in history at NYU, and Amy got a job at an abortion clinic in the city. It was an eyeopening change.

As a counselor in St. Paul, she had often started with a non-judgmental, open question like “How did you come to be here today?” to allow the woman to acknowledge her feelings about the decision facing her.

With her New York patients, the same question elicited very different answers, more like “I got here on the subway. Why?” In New York, a place with more opportunities and more cultural and religious diversity, women saw ending an unplanned pregnancy as a serious decision, but not as a moral failure, she recalled. Her conclusion: ending the stigma about abortion—and the deliberate shaming of women facing that decision—was central to empowering women to pursue their own dreams, goals, and lives.

Soon, Hagstrom Miller moved into clinic management, the business side of abortion services (what she calls “my M.B.A. time”).

Even in New York, she found, getting an abortion was too often a demeaning, impersonal, and non-supportive experience. In addition, limited public funding or health insurance coverage hit low-income and poor women—the majority of those seeking abor-

tions—the hardest. “It was sad,” she remembers, “to see women pawning their possessions to pay for a procedure they needed.”

Hagstrom Miller wanted to build her own, holistic approach to providing abortion services. When she was recruited to turn around a struggling abortion clinic in Austin, Texas, in 2003, the couple picked up stakes.

Her husband, who had finished his Ph.D., got a job at the University of Texas at Austin.

And Hagstrom Miller set to work revamping the Austin clinic, drawing on her counseling and managerial experience from St. Paul and New York City. She also had the support of a group of high-powered and committed professional women working in reproductive health and social justice, who called themselves “the November Gang.” Formed in November, 1989, the group had been meeting twice a year ever since. They provided Hagstrom Miller with advice on clinic administration, staff development, and finance.

Her new company, Whole Woman’s Health, concentrated on patient service—“everything from how we answered the phones to what the waiting room looked like,” Hagstrom Miller says—and on employee support and empowerment. In the process, she tripled revenue. “I found that I could expand access, improve the quality of counseling, and justify the counseling end to the business people, while keeping our focus on that seminal moment [for the individual woman].”

Her success made Hagstrom Miller the go-to person for abortion providers looking to sell or retire. By 2004, she owned three clinics in Texas, and was actively involved with every patient, she says. Next, she bought a clinic in Maryland, where her role was more to train the manager and staff in the Whole Woman’s Health approach. In the process, she was building a national company and developing her business and employee development skills.

Building her own firm was Hagstrom Miller’s graduate education in finance. “I’ve used CONTINUED ON PAGE 22

Amy Hagstrom grew up in Minnesota in the 1970s, in a culture she describes as “Democratic farm and labor, committed to being citizens of the community—supporting bike trails, libraries, things like that.” Her upbringing was “traditional, progressive Christian/Presbyterian.” She calls herself part of the Title IX generation, because that landmark support for girls’ athletics gave Hagstrom, the youngest of five children, an outlet her two older sisters didn’t have. Participating in sports—Nordic skiing and both competitive and synchronized swimming— enabled her to recognize her personal strength and competitive drive; both her teams were state champions.

At Macalester College in St. Paul, Hagstrom began as a religious studies major. A semester abroad in India “changed my psyche and affected my behavior,” she says. Her Indian host mother faced discrimination and disapproval, even from other women, because she was a widow. “One time she went to get her beautiful long hair trimmed,” Hagstrom recalls, “and the hairdresser cut it off in a short bob, without her consent, because the hairdresser felt my Indian mother should have shaved her head after her husband died.”

Her university-educated host sister’s plan to marry for love was still viewed as unusual.

“I thought so much about the things I had taken for granted and the paths many of these Indian women were still having to forge,” Hagstrom says. Back at college, she

added a major in international studies and women’s issues, doing her thesis on arranged marriage and bride-burning.

In 1989, Hagstrom went to Washington, D.C., for the nation’s first national march to support reproductive rights and counter an increasingly violent anti-abortion movement. (The New York Times tallied over 100 clinic bombings and incidents of arson; over 300 invasions; and over 400 incidents of vandalism at abortion clinics between 1978 and 1993.) After graduation, committed to taking a stand on women’s rights, Hagstrom took a job at Planned Parenthood in St. Paul.

She started as a receptionist, handling eight phone lines and the front desk; soon she was involved in every task in the clinic, as well as assisting an outside physician who performed abortions. She began to see an unintended pregnancy as a crisis point at which a woman confronts an intimately personal choice affecting not only her life but, often, the life of her family. “Abortion and other reproductive decisions are not simply medical matters,” she later wrote.

“When a woman makes a decision about her pregnancy and her body, she undergoes an intense evaluation of her beliefs, identity, goals, and dreams for the future.”

She witnessed anti-abortion protesters accosting women right up to the clinic door and shouting taunts and threats at patients as well as clinic staff. “The Jesus I was taught about would be holding the hands of the women inside the clinic,” she has said. “He wouldn’t be screaming at them.”

Hagstrom’s experience at Planned Parenthood solidified her conviction that the abortion debate isn’t really about abortion. “I call abortion ‘the hole in the donut,’” she says.

“What’s driving the issue is what’s around that hole”—how our society views a woman’s biological and social role and her right to make her own decisions. She sees anti-abortion activists restricting access to abortion without any concerted effort to reduce the need for it, by providing women (or men)

every form of financing there is,” she says, “because you can’t get a bank loan as a female abortion provider.” She has built her business using angel investors, seller-financing, and now foundation funding through the Whole Woman’s Health Alliance, a non-profit that owns several of her clinics while Whole Woman’s Health LLC manages them. All her clinics accept Medicaid and health insurance, and work to find funding sources so that no woman is turned away because she can’t pay.

While Hagstrom Miller has become a successful entrepreneur—on the table in her corporate office waiting room are fact sheets about abortion, a copy of House & Garden, and an issue of the Harvard Business Review—her goal is not making money: “What we are providing is the supportive experience,” she says. “I don’t care whether a woman has an abortion [or not], but whatever she decides should be provided with dignity.”

‘I had to litigate’ By 2010, the Hagstrom Miller family’s life was full: Whole Woman’s Health was running six facilities, Karl was making a name for himself as a professor and scholar of American popular music, and the couple had two sons. But at the same time, the Texas legislature was enacting significant restrictions on abortion providers. Clinics around the state were closing. “It became a matter of survival,” Hagstrom Miller says.

“I had to litigate.”

Hagstrom Miller’s first lawsuit challenged a Texas law mandating that a woman seeking an abortion undergo an ultrasound first, a requirement with no medical basis. She won in district court in Austin, but lost in the Fifth District circuit court in New Orleans, and decided not to appeal. The experience did, however, open her eyes to how abortion opponents around the country were using state legislatures to undercut Roe. The man-

62%

datory ultrasound law she challenged in Texas, for example, was later passed in Virginia and several other states.

In 2013, Hagstrom Miller and pro-bono lawyers from the Center for Reproductive Rights filed Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt. It challenged Texas law H.B. 2, which required abortion clinics (the majority of which are outpatient facilities) to meet the same regulatory standards as ambulatory surgery centers. The bill’s supporters claimed this was necessary to protect women’s health, but the immediate impact was to force clinics throughout the state to close, including two owned by Whole Woman’s Health. Women were calling in desperation, trying to find a clinic that was still open. In a 2016 interview, Hagstrom Miller recalled, “One woman told us ‘I can’t travel to San Antonio, I have three children, I’m working two jobs—I’m going to tell you what’s in my medicine cabinet and what’s under my sink, can you tell me how to do my own abortion?’ We have many stories like that.”

Sean Mehl, now clinic director at Whole Woman’s Health in Charlottesville, was working at Hagstrom Miller’s clinic in Fort Worth when H.B. 2 went into effect. “Everything was up in the air,” he recalls.

“When the law closed us down, we had to call patients to cancel their appointments [for abortion procedures] and we couldn’t reschedule.” When the district court ruled for Whole Woman’s Health and issued an injunction, the clinic re-opened—but no one knew for how long. “We would see as many patients as we could while we could.”

Because their San Antonio clinic was attached to an ambulatory surgical center, it could stay open; “we would refer women there, even bring our Fort Worth patients in,” he says. “But Texas is a big state, we couldn’t help everyone.”

Challenging the law had its costs, however. Whole Woman’s Health had to provide the court with more than 10,000 emails and seven years’ worth of clinic documents demonstrating the law’s impact.

In 2014, 62 percent of women who had an abortion identified themselves as “religiously affiliated” (24 percent Catholic, 17 percent mainline Protestant, 13 percent evangelical Protestant, 8 percent other).

60%

Almost 60 percent of women having an abortion are mothers.

“The sad thing was that the load of paperwork involved took the best and brightest of my staff off actually helping patients,” Hagstrom Miller says.

Trying to keep clinics open while handling litigation costs left Hagstrom Miller “hugely in debt.” And it made her a public figure, recognized wherever she went. Looking back, she says, “I didn’t know it then, but my husband believed he had to get me out of Texas.”

As an employee at a state university, Karl was also affected by the state’s increasingly conservative government. When the University of Virginia’s McIntire Department of Music recruited Karl in 2014, the family was ready to go. Hagstrom Miller liked Charlottesville’s greenery and changing seasons—“more like Minnesota”—and its university town atmosphere.

For the next two years, while Hagstrom Miller waited on the litigation process, she was living in Charlottesville. “Nobody knew me here—it was surprisingly nice,” she says.

“I hadn’t realized how much [the atmosphere in Texas] had affected me. And it was really good for our family.” One day, another mother on a school field trip recognized Hagstrom Miller from the abortion rights documentary Trapped, which the local Planned Parenthood chapter had screened for a fundraiser–without realizing one of the film’s featured advocates was living nearby.

The Whole Woman’s Health decision finally came down on June 27, 2016. The Supreme Court ruled 5-3 that states cannot place restrictions on the delivery of abortion services that create an undue burden on women seeking an abortion. One factor in the decision: Texas’ lawyers maintained the law’s restrictions were intended to protect women’s health, but when questioned could not produce any medical studies or statistics supporting those claims.

Above Hagstrom Miller’s standing desk in her Charlottesville office is a photograph

is less than 1 percent, far lower than the complication rate for other office-based procedures such as colonoscopies, vasectomies, and sedation dentistry. The vast majority of abortions performed today do not require an incision, general anesthesia, or an operating room.

Sources: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, “Abortion Surveillance—United States, 2014” (November 2017); National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, “The Safety and Quality of Abortion Care in the Unites States” (March 2018); Guttmacher Institute; plannedparenthood.org; factcheck.org

tive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia (not a party to the lawsuit), says, “Having Amy and Whole Woman’s Health in Virginia is really welcome—they are an advocate as well as a provider, and they bring clout.” The lawsuit, Falls Church Medical Center v. Oliver, is set for trial in April 2019.

There are women’s rights advocates and legal strategists who shy away from bringing challenges now that Justice Kavanaugh has been seated. Does Hagstrom Miller have concerns that the Virginia lawsuit, or the ones in Texas and Indiana that Whole Woman’s Health is part of, might provide the Court an opportunity to limit or even overturn Roe? “Winning at the Supreme Court [with the Texas H.B. 2 challenge] was a long shot,” she

points out. “What if we hadn’t brought up our case because we were worried about how [Justice] Kennedy would vote? It’s not just about winning, it’s about the chance to raise the narrative about abortion in this country. Women deserve to be treated with respect and with dignity.”

She recalls the day of the Whole Woman’s Health ruling: “I knew we had won because [Justice] Breyer was reading the decision.

And then he kept on reading… and I realized how many states we could help.” And then you see the inner steel of the champion athlete, the social conscience of the Midwestern progressive Christian, the commitment of the woman who came back changed from India: “It’s always the right time,” she says, “to do the right thing.”

The state of abortion laws in Virginia In 2006, the Guttmacher Institute, a research and policy organization focused on reproductive rights, classified Virginia as one of 19 states “hostile” to abortion rights.

The organization identifies states as “supportive/middle-ground/hostile/extremely hostile” based on an analysis of state laws and regulations. At that time, only Ohio and Alabama were classified as “extremely hostile.” By 2016, Virginia had become one of 22 “extremely hostile” states.

The following abortion restrictions are among those on the books in Virginia as of May 2018: • Health insurance for the state’s public employees covers abortion only in cases of rape, incest, danger to the woman’s life, or fetal impairment.

• Medicaid funding for abortion is only allowed in cases of rape, incest, danger to the woman’s life, or fetal impairment.

• Health plans in the state’s Affordable Care Act health exchange can cover abortion only in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the woman’s life.

• If the woman is a minor (under age 18), her parent must consent and must be notified before the procedure is performed.

• A woman seeking an abortion must be given state-mandated information, including booklets designed to discourage abortion, at least 24 hours (or two hours if she lives more than 100 miles away) before an abortion procedure.

• The “Two-Trip Mandatory Delay Law:” A woman seeking an abortion must undergo an ultrasound at least 24 hours (two hours if she lives more than 100 miles away) before undergoing the procedure; the abortion provider is required to offer her the option to view the ultrasound image.

• Abortions, even those induced by medication, must be performed by a physician, excluding advanced practice clinicians, licensed nurse practitioners, and physician assistants (who are qualified and allowed to perform abortions in many other states).

• Second-trimester abortions must be performed in a facility that meets all the regulatory requirements of a licensed hospital. This law was enacted in 1975, when most second-trimester abortions were performed by inducing premature labor—a procedure now rarely used.

Falls Church Medical Center v. Oliver, scheduled to be heard in April 2019, challenges the last four restrictions cited above.

In addition to these barriers, as of 2014 roughly 92 percent of Virginia counties did not have a single clinic providing abortion services.

LESS THAN The complication rate for properly performed abortions

Planned Parenthood estimates its health education and family planning services will prevent at least 400,000 unintended pregnancies in 2018—saving government health and child support programs hundreds of millions of dollars, and decreasing the need for abortion.

Still fighting

of her on the steps of the Supreme Court that day, beaming against a summer-blue sky. The first thing she did was hold a conference call with her staff and clinic managers in Texas, to tell them of the victory and let them know the clinics would stay open.

“It was a very powerful thing, to see my work bear fruit,” she says.

Overturning the Texas law, however, doesn’t automatically wipe away restrictions in other states; each state’s laws have to be challenged in court. “Before, we challenged a law so we could get an injunction to stop it being implemented,” she says. “Now we have the basis to clear out laws based on a new standard.” Whole Woman’s Health has been used to support lawsuits in at least 12 states, including Virginia. Part of Hagstrom Miller’s national strategy is to open clinics in states like Virginia that are classified as “extremely hostile” to abortion rights, so she has standing to bring legal challenges.

In 2016, Hagstrom Miller bought an existing clinic in Charlottesville. Women’s rights groups here and around Virginia were excited. “Virginia women now have an additional option for quality, compassionate, affordable reproductive health care access, and a fierce advocate for women’s dignity and autonomy,” says Anna Scholl, executive director of Earlysville-based Progress Virginia, an advocacy organization promoting progressive policies. While the purchase was part of Hagstrom Miller’s legal strategy, it also allowed her to return at least part-time to clinic services. “I missed the touchstone of working with women,” she says. “And from here, we are within reach for so many underserved women. There’s only one abortion provider south and west of here, in Roanoke; only one in West Virginia; and clinics in North Carolina are closing.”

In June 2018, Whole Woman’s Health and three other abortion providers in Virginia filed a new lawsuit in federal court in Richmond, challenging a range of laws, regulations, and licensing requirements built up over the last 40 years. Tarina Keene, execu-

To understand the music of composer David Dominique, shuffle a playlist that features Charles Mingus, Sun Ra Arkestra, and Igor Stravinsky, then add in a few tracks from Sonic Youth. Known for his rhythmically complex and emotionally provocative avant-garde compositions, the Richmond-based William & Mary professor is so versatile that his work ranges from writing for a jazz octet to performing at Coachella, plus scoring the experimental theater work Starcrosser’s Cut, “a fictional, dreamlike reconstruction of the police interview after the arrest of infamous NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak.” The David Dominique Ensemble will perform music from its new release, Mask. $20-25, 7pm. Brooks Hall, UVA. 249-6191.

Voices coming through The Fralin’s ‘Reflections’ connects artists across centuries

Teri Greeves (left) is one of four contemporary artists who helped Adriana Greci Green (right) curate “Reflections: Native Art Across Generations,” on view at The Fralin Museum of Art through late January.

Native American artists’ works, like Rick Bartow’s “Salmon Boy” drawing, exhibited alongside WalkingStick’s “Bear Paw Battlefield #2.”

The artists help Greci Green research the collection as well. Greeves grew up in her mother’s trading post full of artwork from many different Native American tribes, can discern, often via beadwork motifs and materials, the origin of cradleboards, moccasins, beaded bags, and other clothing. She can tell what tribe, or combination of tribes, the artist belonged to or grew up around. And if she doesn’t know, she likely knows someone who does.

“I always appreciate seeing the historic stuff,” Greeves says in the museum, taking a long look at a pair of beaded and extravagantly fringed Kiowa men’s moccasins; they weren’t likely meant for walking through dirt, mud, or grass, she explains, but for showing off while riding a horse.

“The historic stuff is the foundation for what I do; I couldn’t work without it,” Greeves adds as she shifts her gaze to a nearby pair of equally impractical footwear: high-heeled, lace-up, hightop sneakers covered in glossy pink beads. Greeves calls them “Rez Pride/Rez Girls,” and she beaded them as an ode to the girls she grew up with who were at once talented athletes earning basketball scholarships to college so that they might leave the reservation, and brilliant jingle dress dancers too proud of their Native American identities and traditions to abandon them entirely.

“More than anything, I’m a storyteller,” says Greeves as she looks from shoe to moccasin to cradleboard to tapestry, and to the other works in the show, stringing them together with her glance, each one linking the past to the present to the future. “I just use beads as my medium.”

Astor in 1937—a crate of pieces that late 19th and early 20th century anthropologists collected rather dubiously (i.e., stole) from various tribes and pinned to the wall of the American Indian-themed grill house restaurant in the extravagant Hotel Astor in New York City. The crate sat, unopened, until the 1970s. From that collection, Hope chose a woven Chilkat robe to face opposite a child-size mannequin wearing her woven “Little Watchman” ensemble.

The Fralin has about 700 Native American and around 2,000 pre-Columbian objects in its collection, thanks to various gifts over the years. Someone whose uncle owned a trading post gave the beaded Kiowa items, says Greci Green, and the jacket that Red Star chose to show with her “Medicine Crow & The 1880 Crow Peace Delegation” annotated photography series are from yet another gift.

ith an open palm, Teri Greeves gestures to a handful of small, intricately beaded Kiowa Indian cradleboards lined up inside a glass display case.

Kiowa Indians are known for their abstract beadwork motifs, she tells the small crowd that’s gathered to hear her speak at The Fralin Museum of Art at the University of Virginia. And while these cradleboards were made in the 19th century, likely for dolls, they’re not unlike the one that swaddled Greeves, a member of the Kiowa Indian Tribe of Oklahoma, when she was a newborn on Wyoming’s Wind River Indian Reservation in the 1970s.

“I came home in a fully beaded cradleboard.

From the moment I was born, I was encased in glass beads,” she says. Her Italian father made the wooden spines to anchor and support the swaddling sack, and he, together with Greeves’ Kiowa and Comanche mother, designed the beadwork.

A Shoshone Indian woman, a mother figure to Greeves’ mother, beaded the design to the sack.

It likely required hundreds of hours of work, says Greeves, and it makes her feel extraordinarily loved.

She talks about the diaper bag her “fashionista” mother had beaded to match, and how, after substantial begging from a very young Greeves, her Shoshone “aunt” showed her how to bead a pair of shoes.

“I’m rambling on about my family life, but I want to give you some background on how I exist here, standing in front of you,” says Greeves. She wants to explain how she and her beadwork came to be at The Fralin, among these older pieces created in her medium, by her people, who endured physical and emotional brutality, poverty, racism, disenfranchisement, and other horrors, so that Greeves could tell her stories, and their stories, with beads.

“History...informs content,” says Greeves. “The more you know about a particular people, the more you will understand what you’re looking at.”

The exhibition, “Reflections: Native Art Across Generations,” is the first show that Adriana Greci Green, curator of the indigenous arts of the Americas, has curated at The Fralin since her arrival in 2016. For the exhibition, she considered the strengths of The Fralin’s collection and the relevance of these pieces to Native American people, particularly to contemporary Native American artists working in the same or a similar medium.

“It’s really about their voices coming through for us” as viewers of their art, she says.

Greci Green collaborated with four prominent contemporary Native American women artists to select pieces for the exhibition: Greeves, known for her beadwork; Wendy Red Star, an Apsáalooke (Crow) multimedia artist known for her photography; Lily Hope, a Tlingit weaver who is one of few living practitioners of Chilkat weaving; and Kay WalkingStick, a Cherokee landscape painter.

Each artist chose from pieces in The Fralin’s collection to show in conversation with her own work, and wrote a wall panel describing the selections.

Most of The Fralin’s Native American art collection has never been on display. The museum received its first gift of such work from Lady Nancy

Bohemian Rhapsody

By Kristofer Jenson arts@c-ville.com

I

t’s unfortunate that movies about exceptional people usually end up being so conventional.

Queen was a band that defied expectations and broke down barriers, redefining what a rock band could be, and Freddie Mercury is not only one of history’s greatest frontmen but an icon for the alienated, particularly for LGBTQ fans. Bohemian Rhapsody, meanwhile, is exactly like every other musical biopic that’s anchored by a transcendent lead performance, but nearly sunk by unsturdy craftsmanship. The good parts are good: the music, the costuming, the revelation of Rami Malek as a leading man, and the depiction of loneliness. Almost everything else you could get from watching interviews and old performances on YouTube.

Maybe it’s a trap we create for ourselves. Mercury’s strong presence and enduring iconography is almost a film in itself, and leaves little room for exploration beyond filling in biographical gaps or recreating famous moments for recognition points. When so much about a person’s life is public, biopics often feel more like a recitation of facts than an artistic tribute.

If the only thing linking scenes is chronology, the effect is like watching different movies crammed together. The sequence of Queen touring America, with its graphics and music video production, is not the same film as the sequence of recording “Bohemian Rhapsody,” which is not the same film as Mercury asserting his independence from a bad faith manager.

When the story focuses, it excels. We follow Mercury—born Farrokh Bulsara—from his days as an art school student desperate to perform, to seizing a chance

opening with a fellow students’ band, to taking over the rock ‘n’ roll world. Once at the top, he faces loneliness and isolation, despite being beloved by millions of people. His love for his fiancée Mary (Lucy Boynton) is genuine, though their differing sexual orientations means the relationship can only satisfy so much. As the other members of Queen settle down with wives and children, Mercury becomes less connected with the group he knows as his family, and this gets exploited by personal manager and romantic partner Paul Prenter (Allen Leech). The film concludes with Live Aid in 1985, one of the most celebrated performances in music history, and one that cemented not only the band’s personal relationships, but its status as rock legends.

Mercury’s relationship with Prenter is the most compelling story thread of the film, and it provides the fuel for his personal redemption. The way Malek is able to convey the totality of Mercury’s experience with a simple shoulder or eye movement is phenomenal, and he elevates the movie while doing so. Mercury’s intelligence, humor, and charm are so fully captured, it’s enough reason to see this film—like seeing the otherwise forgettable Ray for the electric performance by Jamie Foxx.

The director credit goes to Bryan Singer, who was fired late in the production for absenteeism and rumored conflicts with the cast (not for that other thing, Google him). The disjointedness shows, as does the fact that certain individuals portrayed in the film have producer credits—hint: they’re all good guys who believe in Mercury the whole time. Overly prescient, not sufficiently focused, and frustratingly on the nose (casting Mike Myers to talk about kids headbanging in cars?

Really?), see Bohemian Rhapsody for Malek alone.

The result is a cider with

This sister line of ciders features four varieties: ginger and oaked spirits, hopped ginger, elderberry and cherry, and prickly pear and orange blossom. The beverages range from 6.9 to 11 percent alcohol and will be hitting shelves in 12-ounce cans by December, according to cider maker and orchard manager Stuart Madany.

“Adjunct ciders are generally at a lower price point and higher volume,” he says. “They’re made of what I’d call the better apples that are not cider specific—jonathans, yorks, pink ladies, and golden delicious.”

Take Bold Rock’s Blood Orange cider, which blends blood orange juice and locally harvested Blue Ridge apples. The naturally hazy beverage, sitting at an easy drinking 4.7 percent ABV, combines the crisp tartness of cider with a zip of the trendiest citrus on the market. Blood Orange Cider is available in 12-ounce bottles at a variety of stores around Charlottesville, so cider lovers can get to sippin’ ASAP.

From spices to berries to citrus to hops, all sorts of adjuncts are showing up in cider these days.

November 7 – 13, 2018 c-ville.com

ider is a traditionally straightforward beverage— whether it’s the soft stuff or the hard stuff, cider is made with apples and not much else.

Tell that to today’s local hard cider makers.

From spices to berries to citrus to hops, all sorts of adjuncts are showing up in cider these days. And much as craft beer drinkers can’t get enough of brews with wacky ingredients (Oreos and fried chicken f ’real?), cider sippers are getting into the unusual too.

Locally, Andy Hannas, Tim Edmond, and Dan Potter are leading the charge at Potter’s Craft Cider.

“Tim, Dan and I all used to brew beer at home before we started making cider, and they were looking at starting a brewery before they wound up in the cider world,” Hannas says. “That was definitely a big source of inspiration early on. Hopped cider was the third product we made.

They had a lot of beer ideas they were kicking around, and I had things in mind from my homebrewing days, so we started experimenting.”

With Virginia Cider Week set to flow November 9-18, start priming your palate with these three unique hard cider offerings.

LIVING FREE WILL ASTROLOGY LIVING FREE WILL ASTROLOGY

By Rob Brezsny

Sagittarius

Scorpio

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “The best thing one can do when it is raining is let it rain.” That brilliant formulation came from poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Does it seem so obvious as to not need mentioning? Bear with me while I draw further meaning from it, and suggest you use it as an inspiring metaphor in the coming weeks. When it rains, Sagittarius, let it rain; don’t waste time and emotional energy complaining about the rain. Don’t indulge in fruitless fantasizing about how you might stop the rain and how you’d love to stop the rain. In fact, please refrain from defining the rain as a negative event, because after all, it is perfectly natural, and is in fact crucial for making the crops grow and replenishing our water supply. (P.S. Your metaphorical “rain” will be equally useful.)

to compose respectable, measured prose.

When he finally gave up on that project and decided he could “get away with” a more uninhibited style, he described it as being “like falling down an elevator shaft and landing in a pool full of mermaids.” I foresee a metaphorically comparable development in your future, Pisces.

Capricorn

Aries

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “Every true love and friendship is a story of unexpected transformation,” writes activist and author Elif Shafak. “If we are the same person before and after we loved, that means we haven’t loved enough.”

I bring this to your attention because you’re in a phase when your close alliances should be activating healing changes in your life. If for some reason your alliances are not yet awash in the exciting emotions of redemption and reinvention, get started on instigating experimental acts of intimacy.

Aquarius

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson wasn’t always a wild-and-crazy writer. Early in his career he made an effort

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): I am not currently a wanderer or voyager or entrepreneur or swashbuckler. But at other times in my life, I have had extensive experience with those roles. So I know secrets about how and why to be a wanderer and voyager and entrepreneur and swashbuckler. And it’s clear to me that in the coming weeks you could benefit in unforeseen ways from researching and embodying the roles of curious wanderer and brave voyager and savvy entrepreneur and prudent swashbuckler.

(March 21-April 19): In 1994, Aries pop diva Mariah Carey collaborated with an associate to write the song “All I Want For Christmas Is You.” It took them 15 minutes to finish it. Since then it has generated $60 million in royalties.

I wish I could unconditionally predict that you, too, will efficiently spawn a valuable creation sometime soon. Current planetary alignments do indeed suggest that such a development is more possible than usual. But because I tend to be conservative in my prophecies, I won’t guarantee anything close to the $60-million figure. In fact, your reward may be more spiritual in nature than financial.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): An interactive post at Reddit.com asked readers to write about “the most underrated feeling of all time.” One person said, “When you change the sheets on your bed.” Another extolled “the feeling that comes when you pay all your bills and you’ve still got money in the bank.” Others said, “dancing under the rain,” “physical contact like a pat on the back when you’re really touch starved,” and “listening to a song for the first time and it’s so good you just can’t stop smiling.” I bring this to your attention, Taurus, because I suspect that the next two weeks will bring you a flood of these pleasurable underrated feelings.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): “Beer makes you feel the way you ought to feel without beer,” wrote

Gemini author Henry Lawson. Do you have any methods for making yourself feel like you’ve drunk a few beers that don’t involve drinking a few beers? If not, I highly recommend that you find at least one. It will be especially important in the coming weeks for you to have a way to alter, expand, or purify your consciousness without relying on literal intoxicants or drugs. The goal: to leave your groove before it devolves into a rut.

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Study the following five failed predictions. 1. “There is no likelihood man can ever tap the power of the atom.”— Robert Millikan, Nobel Laureate in Physics, 1923. 2. “This ‘telephone’ has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us.”—Western Union internal memo, 1876. 3. “Rail travel at high speeds is not possible because passengers, unable to breathe, would die of asphyxia.”–Dionysius Lardner, scientist, 1830. 4. “There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home.”—Ken Olsen, president of Digital Equipment Corporation, 1977. 5. “Most Cancerians will never overcome their tendencies toward hypersensitivity, procrastination, and fear of success.”—Lanira Kentsler, astrologer, 2018. (P.S. What you do in the next 12 months could go a long way toward permanently refuting the last prediction.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): German scientists have created cochlear implants for gerbils that have been genetically modified, enabling the creatures to “listen” to light. The researchers’ work is ultimately dedicated to finding ways to improve the lives of people with hearing impairments. What might be the equivalent of you gaining the power to “hear light”? I understand that you might resist thinking this way. “That makes no sense,” you may

protest, or “There’s no practical value in fantasizing about such an impossibility.” But I hope you’ll make the effort anyway. In my view, stretching your imagination past its limits is the healing you need most right now. I also think that doing so will turn out to be unexpectedly practical.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Here’s useful wisdom from the poet Rumi. “Our defects are the ways that glory gets manifested,” he said. “Keep looking at the bandaged place. That’s where the light enters you.” Playwright Harrison David Rivers interprets Rumi’s words to mean, “Don’t look away from your pain, don’t disengage from it, because that pain is the source of your power.” I think these perspectives are just what you need to meditate on, Virgo. To promote even more healing in you, I’ll add a further clue from poet Anna Kamienska: “Where your pain is, there your heart lies also.” (P.S. Rumi is translated by Coleman Barks; Kamienska by Clare Cavanagh.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Artist David Hockney is proud of how undemanding he is toward his friends and associates. “People tell me they open my emails first,” he says, “because they aren’t demands and you don’t need to reply. They’re simply for pleasure.” He also enjoys giving regular small gifts. “I draw flowers every day and send them to my friends so they get fresh blooms.” Hockney seems to share the perspective expressed by author Gail Godwin, who writes, “How easy it was to make people happy, when you didn’t want or need anything from them.”

In accordance with astrological omens, Libra, I suggest you have fun employing these approaches in the coming weeks.

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I suspect you will be an especially arousing influence in the coming weeks. You may also be inspiring and disorienting, with unpredictable results. How many transformations will you unleash? How many expectations will you dismantle? How many creative disruptions will you induce in the midst of the daily grind? I hesitate to underestimate the messy beauty you’ll stir up or the rambunctious gossip you’ll provoke. In any case, I plan to be richly amused by your exploits, and I hope everyone else will be, as well. For best results, I will pray to the Goddess of Productive Fun, begging her to ensure that the commotions and uproars you catalyze will be in service to love and kindness.
