BRAZIL— Soldiers Attempt to Restore Order: A woman stands in a doorway smoking a cigarette as soldiers take part in a surprise operation in the Jacarezinho slum in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday. Troops have been sent to Rio due to the increase of the violence, and in an attempt to help restore order, but so far have had little impact. The operation on Thursday took place three weeks ahead of Carnival, when thousands of tourists are expected to arrive in the city. Visit brooklyneagle.com for more Our World in Photos.

Trump’s Remarks—Signs of a Demagogue? The USA is historically one of the leaders of humanitarianism. For that reason, shame on all the people who were in the White House for talks on immigration when the president reportedly asked why do we need people coming from s—thole countries to America.

the rest of the world. Raise voices objecting to wrong, whenever it is observed Democratic Senator Dick Durbin, who was also at the meeting, confirmed the account, stating, “He said these hatefilled things, and he said them repeatedly.” I applaud Senator Durbin for speaking out. This lone senator heard what was said because he was paying attention. When people say, “I don’t recall,” most of the time they are not being truthful. The Associated Press noted that Trump “wasn’t apologetic” when talking to his friends about the remark. “Instead, Trump blamed the media for distorting his meaning, arguing his description of ‘s—thole’ was not racist but rather a straightforward assessment of some nations’ depressed conditions. If that’s the case, the president is putting himself in a deeper hole by labeling countries with an explicit word. It then labels the entire population of those countries Is the president of the United States of America a demagogue? The word demagogue, originally meaning a leader of the common people, was first coined in ancient Greece with no negative connection, but eventually came to mean a troublesome kind of leader who occasionally antagonized Athenian democracy. Even though democracy gave power to the common people, elections still tended to favor the aristocratic class, which favored deliberation and decorum. Demagogues were a new kind of leader who emerged from the lower classes. Demagogues relentlessly advocate action, usually violent, immediately and without deliberation. Demagogues appealed directly to the emotions of the poor and uninformed, pursuing power, telling lies to stir up hysteria, exploiting crises to intensify popular support and accusing moderate opponents of weakness or disloyalty to the nation. Are we in an era of change to from democracy to dictatorship? I wonder if the words on the bottom of the statue in New York Harbor means anything to politicians who support things President Trump is saying from time to time in his speeches. These are the words written at the bottom of the Statue of Liberty, “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift

Referring to places like Haiti, Africa and El Salvador, if the president of the United States of America can speak derogatory remarks about those countries, he must be thinking of a lot more countries around the globe and their people. Donald Trump is no stranger when it comes to foul language — he uses curse words constantly. During the 2016 campaign, candidate Trump referred to Brussels as a “hellhole” because of issues stemming from Muslim immigration. So think for yourselves, what he means when he uses the words “s—t hole” to describe other countries. The ones who said they do not recall the president making those remarks, and the ones who stood silent are all birds of feather who flock together. Were these invitees to the White House so dumbfounded that they were left with momentary amnesia? Are these people telling us that they don’t pay attention to what the president of the United States of America says and does in the White House because Donald Trump is the president and commander in chief and no one can correct him when mistakes are made? America is watching and so is

my lamp beside the golden door!” If those words have no bearing and are just for a chosen few people coming to the United States of America, the president should have the entire Statue of Liberty removed. America was never a country only for white people. People from other countries were brought here. Some were invited, some came on their own, some were enslaved before they were brought here. Even after the slaves were freed, they weren’t picked up and returned to their countries of origin. I wonder if that’s because there was no one like Donald Trump with the power to deport them. What about the American Indians, who were here? What would Donald Trump say to the American Indians? Trump said that former President Barack Obama was not born in the United States of America, Back when he was trying to push for Americans to deny a black man from becoming president of the United States of America, he even went as far as paying investigators to go to Hawaii to disprove that that was Obama’s birthplace A Republican senator has said he wished he the Republican Party had done more to fight the racist conspiracy theories surrounding former President Obama’s birthplace.

Impassioned Celebration: PS 261 Students Fill Steps of Borough Hall for Dr. King Rally Continued from page 1 Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams thanked the students and the parents for their efforts in this march. “I woke up this morning reading the paper and hearing some of the comments that were made by the president of this country and there was a level of sadness that I felt. And the universe has a way of responding to our sadness because that frown turned into a smile every time I heard these young people,” Adams said to cheers and applause. Retired former principal Zipporah Mills started the march in 2008 and it has continued to grow since then under the guidance of Principal Jacqueline Allen Joseph, Parent Coordinator Heather Weston and the socalled “queen” of the march, teacher Catherine Pacilo. After an impassioned rendition of Woody Guthrie’s “This Land is Your Land,” the students took turns reading their speeches to the enthusiastic crowd that attentively listened as the rain fell. Not a single umbrella was unfurled out of respect for the solemnity of the occasion. Fifth grader Sarah Cocco spoke eloquently about her heritage and what the march meant to her. “I am Jewish, Italian and I’m here for myself and every woman on the planet,” said Cocco. And echoing the words of King she added, “I have a dream that one day women and girls will be seen for what we really are — strong, smart kind and not afraid to be who we are,” as the

crowd erupted with shouts and applause. Other student speakers included Elliot Wells, Bayan Clark, Bryan Montes Vega, Noura Ali, Evan Estrella, Keira James, Farrah Mussa and Nasma Shkais. Fifth grade teacher Nan Oshea told the Brooklyn PHOENIX, “This is our 10th anniversary. We’ve been coming here for 10years rain or shine to stand on the steps. Our fifth grade students used their reading and writing skills to write speeches on the theme of civil rights.” Adams offered his own words of inspiration to the students standing behind him. “Young people look to the right of you, look to the left of you, look behind you. Fortyseven percent of Brooklynites speak a language other than English at home. This is the place where if we did it right in Brooklyn, we would show the entire globe how to get it right.” The children all proudly held signs with various messages of hope: “Peace,” “Black Lives Matter,” “People Matter,” “Blacks and Whites Together,” “Women’s Rights,” “Gay Rights,” “Come Together,” “Right to Live” and one sign read, “My Outrage Can’t Fit on This Sign!” “Your signs are important,” said Adams. “Your stories are important, your words are important and the march of Dr. King is so important. Let’s continue to build our country and we will out-Trump Trump any day.” See brooklyneagle.com for the full story and more photos.

Sundhe Moses’ Conviction Overturned After 18 Years in Prison on Wrongful Conviction By Rob Abruzzese Brooklyn PHOENIX

After spending 18 years in prison, Sundhe Moses finally had his name cleared when Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Dineen Riviezzo decided to overturn his 20-year-old conviction for his role in the death of a 4-year-old girl during a hearing last Thursday. Moses has not been exonerated, the conviction was merely overturned, which means that he may end up back in court for the charges that he already spent 18 years in jail for. The Brooklyn District Attorney's Office now has to decide to retry the case, appeal this decision or dismiss the charges. Moses' attorney Ron Kuby said that the worst-case scenario is probably that Moses could end up back on parole. He was released on parole four years ago. Most likely, though, Kuby said the Brooklyn DA's Office will probably drop the charges. “I think retrying the case, in the current climate, and given the state of the evidence, it would be difficult to prevail and possibly humiliating for the prosecutors.” The controversy in Moses' case is surrounding the tactics of former NYPD homicide Detective Louis Scarcella, who forced a confession out of Moses, according to defense attorneys. That false confession was one of the key pieces of evidence used to convict Moses of murder.

“With each case that exposes [Scarcella’s] misconduct it makes the next case easier,” said Kuby, who has been involved in numerous wrongful-conviction cases. “The notion that Det. Louis Scarcella is entitled to any first name besides ‘Disgraced’ has been utterly dissipated. Everyone knows his name is Disgraced Louis Scarcella. The judicial system can’t trust any evidence that he’s had his paws on.” In her decision, Riviezzo said that because the confession wasn't reliable, and because the other witnesses were unreliable then, and unreliable now, and the only real evidence was that confession the conviction had to be overturned. She wrote, had the jury been informed of Scarcella’s propensity to engage in misconduct, they may have ruled differently. Prosecutors have until Feb. 16 to decide whether or not to retry Moses for the Aug. 27, 1995 shooting that led to the death of 4-year-old Shamone Johnson. Scarcella's questionable tactics have now been a factor in 12 overturned convictions since 2013. Despite the fact that they may still try his client, Kuby did credit the Brooklyn DA’s Office for being fair during the determination of this case. “In Sunny's case they were open, honest, transparent, collaborating, shared information, good or bad, and ultimately a judge decided this case, which is sometimes the way it has to go,” Kuby said.

De Blasio Promotes Affordable Housing Plan at Cypress Hills Senior Residences The Associated Press New York City created or preserved more than 24,500 affordable homes last year, breaking a record for the nation’s biggest city, Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Tuesday. The previous record was just over 23,100, in 1989. De Blasio, a Democrat re-elected last year, has made affordable housing a centerpiece of his two mayoral campaigns. He promoted the milestone at the Cypress Hills Senior Residences in Brooklyn. The city invested more than $1 billion in affordable apartments last year. The effort mostly preserved affordable homes — more than 17,300 of them. Another 7,200 new ones were created. Nearly half the homes ﬁnanced rent at levels affordable to a residents making about

$33,400 per year, or $43,000 for a family of three. The city has preserved or created more than 87,500 affordable homes in the last four years. “Not only did we generate the most affordable housing in a single calendar year — a full half of those homes will serve extremely and very low-income New Yorkers,” said Housing Preservation and Development Commissioner Maria Torres-Springer. Outreach efforts include a new housing website and ads promoting resources to help people apply for affordable housing, ﬁght eviction and freeze their rent. The mayor’s Public Engagement Unit has made more than 280,000 door knocks and phone calls to tell residents about their rights and how to get repairs, legal services and rental assistance.

Judge Lillian Wan Makes Pitch for Lawyers to Join Bar Associations By Rob Abruzzese Brooklyn PHOENIX

Judge Lillian Wan, who sits in Brooklyn Family Court, didn’t join a bar association until she was nine years into her legal career and she doesn’t want to see other attorneys making the same mistake. That was the message Wan brought with her to the Brooklyn Women’s Bar Association’s (BWBA) Lunch with a Judge event at the Family Court on Tuesday, where many young attorneys sat in with members and judges as they listened to her share her story. “I say it all the time that I wish I had joined a bar association sooner, but I was never encouraged to,” she said. “It provides you with a network of lawyers, judges and to attend programs like CLEs [continuing legal education] and other events. It gives you an opportunity to learn about different areas of the law.

“Even if you are the type of person who is exhausted by the end of the day and just wants to go home and watch TV, I still encourage you because it makes you a better lawyer,” Wan continued. Wan, the daughter of Chinese immigrants, was born in Flushing, Queens, and raised in Nassau County. She attended Binghamton University before going to Albany Law School. After spending nine years at NYC’s Administration for Child Services, she worked for a year in the Surrogate’s Court before she was appointed to be a judge in the Bronx Family Court in July 2012. She admitted that she never thought about becoming a judge until she began to work with Judge Margarita Lopez Torres. It was through Lopez Torres’ guidance that she realized how rewarding being a judge could be and she was the one who encouraged Wan to become involved with the bar association.

“I was interested in the court system, but never once did I think that I would become a judge,” Wan said. “I thought it wasn't something that I could do, or wanted to do, and I thought that judges were picked out of the sky. I had no connections.” Michele Mirman, BWBA president, also made a pitch to the many non-member attorneys in attendance that they should join the group. She pointed out that through BWBA’s parent organization and the Women’s Bar Association for the State of New York (WBASNY), the group has been pushing for changes to the law to improve conditions for women and that their presence within the group could only help. “We’re trying to grow our organization so that we have more delegates within the state bar,” Mirman explained. “We have seven now, but we’re close to having eight and we think that we could eventually get nine or 10.

“That would really help us counterbalance some of the more conservative upstate chapters,” Mirman continued. “That way we could better fight for an extension to the statute of limitations on sexual assault cases, or more income equality.” BWBA has a series of CLEs coming up that are dedicated towards helping women in their professional lives. On Thursday, Jan. 25, the group will meet at Geraldo's Cafe in Brooklyn Law School for a seminar on learning how to speak out. On Jan. 30 another CLE will be held on starting your own practice and on Feb. 8 another on investing money properly. “This year is extremely important to get involved,” Mirman said. “We now have the #MeToo movement; we have questions about income equality. This could be a really big banner year for women if we can get our agenda — which is shared with so many women — through.”

“I say it all the time that I wish I had joined a bar association sooner, but I was never encouraged to ... It gives you an opportunity to learn about different areas of the law.” —Judge Lillian Wan

Straub, Books Are Magic Continue To Make Strides in Brooklyn By Kathryn Cardin Brooklyn Eagle

Speaking at a gathering Tuesday of Brooklyn Heights residents interested in cultural changes, author Emma Straub told the audience how she became part of a new phenomenon: fast-growing independent bookstores that provide unique experiences. Family-friendly, cutting edge and based in classical respect for the language, bookstores are, well, magic. After opening Books Are Magic in May of 2017 on Smith Street in Cobble Hill, Straub and her husband Michael Fusco-Straub have experienced continuous success in the indie bookstore business. That does not mean it came without hard work, though. “I am in the store for [two weekdays] and at home writing for three of them,” Straub said. “And there’s my third job, which takes the most time, and that’s having two small boys … I have no social life that is not in either Zip code 11201 or 11231.” Along with dedicating time and energy to the not-yet-year-old bookstore, Straub attributes Books Are Magic’s success to a few things. “I would say we have two major things going for us as a bookstore in addition to being a good, solid, useful independent bookstore for everyone to use,” Straub said. “Firstly, we are in a neighborhood that has loved and supported their independent bookstores for 35 years. It’s in a neighborhood where people are used to walking to their bookstore, and they just had to reroute a little when we came in. But, we came with a built-in client base. “Also, I’m an author and I have a lot of friends on both sides 2 • Brooklyn Eagle • Thursday, January 18 , 2018

of the publishing fence,” Straub continued. “So, if I hear that Curtis Sittenfeld has a new book coming out, I’m likely to write to her, write to her publicist, write to everyone and say, ‘Send her to me! Send her to me!’ “That’s my main job at the bookstore, being very excited.” These friends are coming in especially handy to Straub in the upcoming months, as the bookstore is hosting a slew of superstar authors to speak. British best-selling and award-winning author Zadie Smith (“Swing Time,” “White Teeth”) will discuss her new collection of essays, “Feel Free,” on Feb. 7 at St. Ann and the Holy Trinity Church in Brooklyn Heights at an event hosted by Books Are Magic. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Wesley Morris will moderate the event.

Faces Behind The Food By John Alexander Continued from page 2INB

Hot Trivia Nights: THE BRAZEN HEAD at 228 Atlantic Ave. has a trivia night every Monday (except the first Monday of each month)? And the host of trivia night is none other than “Jeopardy!” champion Austin Rogers, whose 12-game winning streak put him in fifth place of all-time champions. That’s right, Rogers loves The Brazen Head because it’s an authentic bar, and everyone there is super friendly. You can read more about the beloved “Jeopardy” celebrity in our Eagle Weekly! And online Yelpers are raving about the bar: “Favorite bar in my neighborhood. Great beer menu. Always good stuff on the list and rotates fairly frequently…Free snacks and a come-one-come-all bar vibe is worth a stop … I’ve been searching for a new bar to frequent on a regular basis, and I think I may have found just that at The Brazen Head.” *** BAREBURGER prides itself on the healthy organic options they feature along with a nice selection of game meats for your dining pleasure. That’s right, if you are craving a delicious duck entrée or have a hankering for elk or bison, you’ve come to the right place. From their renowned “Son of a Lamb,” selection to their mouth-watering Mammer Jammer (smoked brisket, pepper jack, pickled jalapenos, paprika mayo), there’s truly something for everybody at Bareburger. Oh, and their Blue Elk entrée is hard to beat – elk, Amish blue, black forest bacon, caramelized onions, tomato fig jam on a sprout bun – Yum!!! *** NANATORI is a hidden gem of a Japanese restaurant on Montague St. Customer’s consistently rave about its top-quality sushi at reasonable prices. Online comments include: “Always great! Best sushi ever … I always order sushi at Nanatori. Definitely the preference in the neighborhood. Fish is always fresh, and they work fast so you don’t have to wait for the food. I also go and have dinner on-site sometimes, they are lovely and very professional. I’m a big sushi fan and am really happy I found them last year when I moved into the neighborhood. Great job! And overheard at Nanatori: “I love this sushi! The fish is fresh, the place looks great and the price is right.” What more can you ask from the perfect Japanese restaurant?” Dine in or order out, either way you know you’re enjoying some of the finest seafood in the borough. It’s just one block away from the Brooklyn Historical Society, and it’s making its own culinary history on Montague Street. ***

There is nothing more enjoyable strolling around the neighborhood with a fresh-brewed cup of coffee. D’AMICO COFFEE INC. at 309 Court St. is the one place you can count on for the finest cup of Joe in town. Three generations of D’Amico’s have been roasting beans since 1948. Emanuel D’Amico, a sea merchant from Palermo, Sicily, migrated to America and started the business percolating, and it is now run by his grandson Frank D’Amico Jr. and his wife Joan. Customers can see a portrait of grandpa on the wall, a testament to D’Amico’s rich Brooklyn legacy. And D’Amico continues the tradition of mailing coffee to our veterans overseas.

A Winter Glimpse of Tom Selleck's Bay Ridge “Blue Bloods” House By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Tom Selleck's house looks swell in the snow. We're talking about his “Blue Bloods” house in Bay Ridge — the home of NYPD Commissioner Frank Reagan, whom Selleck plays on the CBS TV hit series. As fans of “Blue Bloods” know, the fictional police commissioner and multiple generations of his TV-show family have Sunday dinner together at his Bay Ridge home. The house exterior that's shown in the series is a real place. It's a 1920s Colonial-style brick house at 8070 Harbor View Terrace. The house is situated on a big corner lot — with plenty of room for a picturesque snow pileup. The other day, after the bomb cyclone, AKA Winter Storm Grayson, blew into town, we snapped some photos to share with readers. In real life, the Harbor View Terrace house belongs to the Diocese of St. Maron-USA, city Finance Department records indicate.

Hark! The Bay Ridge house where Tom Selleck's character, Police Commissioner Frank Reagan, lives in “Blue Bloods” is surrounded by a blanket of snow. INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan

Condo Building Stands Tall on Convent Site Across From St. Patrick’s Church

From convent to condos — that’s the story of 401 95th St., which is the building on the corner. INBrooklyn photo by Lore Croghan

Plus Other Bay Ridge Development And Renovation Updates By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

No nuns now. A new condo building stands tall on a site in Bay Ridge where a convent was located. J&J Property & Management Group LLC is getting close to completing the construction of seven-story 401 95th St., which has 22 residential units and retail space. It’s on the corner of Fifth Avenue, right across the street from St. Patrick’s Catholic Church. The condo building’s facade is mostly made of glass, and is really eye-catching. You’d better have on sunglasses if you’re waiting on the other side of the avenue for a green light so you can cross the street and go to Mass. The upper floors of 401 95th St. reflect the sun like a mirror. In 2009, the church sold the convent site for $3 million to J&J Property & Management Group LLC with Tin Tak Cheng as manager, city Finance Department records indicate. We know that condos are planned — as opposed to rental apartments — at 401 95th St. because of a March 2016 building-loan agreement between the developer and Banco Popular North America. The agreement, which is in Finance Department records, spells out the lender’s various requirements concerning condo sales at the building. For instance, the agreement says the minimum price will not be less than $401 per square foot for any unit at 401 95th St.

We requested additional info about condo sales from the developer. We haven’t yet gotten a response.

A 14-Unit Apartment Building Here, a Three-Family Home There

Bay Ridge is big. There’s always a lot going on with residential construction and renovation. Here’s a sample of what’s cooking in the waterfront Southwest Brooklyn neighborhood: • Until recently, the house at 7701 Ridge Blvd. was situated on a 75-foot-wide, 100-footdeep lot on the corner of 77th Street. Then Star Property Holding LLC with Igor Nestor as member bought the property for $2 million in December 2016 from Congregation Imrei Yehudah, Finance Department records show. The LLC split the property into two 37.5-foot-wide lots and sold them to two different purchasers. In October 2017, Finance Department records show, Slawomir Wojda and Beata Wojda paid $946,972 for the lot that’s further away from 77th Street. It uses 7707 Ridge Blvd. as its address. It’s vacant land. Or rather, it was vacant land at the time of their purchase. They’re now constructing a three-story, single-family home and one-car garage on the lot, city Buildings Department filings show. The other lot, where the existing house is located, sold in December 2017 for $1,238,800, Finance Department records

indicate. The purchaser was 7701 Realty LLC, with Shu Hua Wu and Wai Man Liu as members, Finance Department records show. • An LLC that Igor Nestor is involved in plans to construct an eight-story, 14-unit apartment building at 60 92nd St., Buildings Department filings show. The two-story single-family house that stood on the site has been demolished. Last March, Nestor and two other investors purchased the house and lot for $3.35 million, Finance Department records indicate. Nestor got a 70 percent stake in the property. Slawomir Wojda got a 20 percent stake. Maciej Wrona got a 10 percent stake. In June, they transferred ownership of the property to 60 92nd Street Brooklyn LLC. Buildings Department records identify Nestor as a managing member of that LLC. • The new owners of 237 77th St. plan to convert the single-family home into a three-family house, Buildings Department re-

cords show. According to Finance Department records, they are Kelvin Kuong Chong Ng and Karen Minjing Tong. They bought the house in October for $2 million. • Renovation is planned at 127 83rd St., which is a single-family home, Buildings Department records show. It belongs to Douglas Donahue and Elizabeth Galante-Donahue, who purchased it in October for $1.75 million, Finance Department records indicate. • Another recent property transaction was the $1.11 million sale of 8902 Shore Court in October. Jonathan Reed Tucker and Michelle Fleury were the buyers, Finance Department records show. The semi-detached house with Tudor details is on the corner of 89th Street. Bay Ridge has numerous private streets. Shore Court is one of them. It’s paved with cobblestones, which adds to its charm.

Brooklyn Music School Presents Martin Luther King Jr. Tribute Renowned baritone Lester Lynch performed at the tribute. Photo courtesy of Lester Lynch

The bust of civil rights activist and leader Martin Luther King Jr. is draped with a wreath of flowers to commemorate his birthday in the Capitol Rotunda in Washington. By John Alexander Brooklyn Daily Eagle

“Out of a mountain of despair, a stone of hope,” said Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. And in the spirit of Dr. King, on Saturday, Jan. 13 the Brooklyn Music School (BMS) presented the 16th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Tribute concert hosted by renowned baritone and BMS advisory board member Lester Lynch. The Brooklyn Music School in Fort Greene is a community school for the performing arts that was founded in 1909 as the Brooklyn Music School Settlement by European immigrants who valued the performance of music as an essential part of life. Inspired by Dr. King’s legacy and message, the program featured selections from Lynch’s recent recording “On My Journey Now: Spirituals & Hymns,” as well as performances by BMS faculty and students. Lynch, an established dramatic baritone, has made his mark in some of the world’s leading opera houses. Known for his charismatic portrayals and commanding voice, he has received rave reviews for his work. His most recent performances include Lescaut in Puccini’s “Manon Lescaut” under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle with the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, Crown in “Porgy and Bess” with the Opéra de Montréal, as Amonasro in Verdi’s “Aida” with Pittsburgh Opera, and as Carbon in “Cyrano de Bergerac” with the San Francisco Opera. He also was featured as Iago in Verdi’s “Otello” and in the title role of Verdi’s Falstaff with the Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian in Portugal. Upcoming performances include Shylock in “The Merchant of Venice” with the Warsaw National Opera and upcoming recordings include Iago in Verdi’s “Otello” and Porgy in Gershwin’s “Porgy and Bess.” Lynch has also worked with some of the world’s most renowned conductors and directors. Under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle and the Berlin Philharmonic, he has sung the role of Crown in Gershwin’s “Porgy and Bess.” Another performance of Crown with San Francisco Op-

era’s production of “Porgy and Bess” was recently released on DVD. An accomplished concert artist, Lynch has performed a wide and varied repertoire with orchestras across the globe, including the Berlin Philharmonic, the New York Philharmonic, the National Symphony Orchestra, Houston Symphony Orchestra, Cleveland Orchestra and the American Symphony Orchestra. His recent Carnegie Hall solo debut of Karl A. Hartmann’s “Gesangsszene” with the American Symphony Orchestra received rave reviews.

He has received many distinguished awards, including the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions, the George London Vocal Competition, and the Sullivan Awards. His work with Opera Theatre of Saint Louis earned him the Richard Gaddes Award. Lynch has great admiration for Dr. King. He told the Brooklyn Eagle, “This great man and leader paved the way for us all. But, especially for an African-American man.

When: Friday-Sunday, through Jan. 28, 11 a.m. - 6 p.m., or by appointment Where: Bushwick/Luhring Augustine Bushwick (25 Knickerbocker Ave.) Leslie Kerby’s The World Contained Leslie Kerby’s work employs a variety of media to explore how identity and social narratives are constructed personally and collectively. “The World Contained” investigates the multivalent uses of boxes: as containment vessels within global trade and as temporary materials for low-cost housing. Through the course of the animation, Kerby creates a universe punctuated by shelters of boxes perpetually in flux. The collages of rectangles rotate in an orderly line while the cut-outs of hands and feet haphazardly navigate the matrix of structures under construction. The individual body parts move through the network that they create, intrinsically linked to the boxes and to themselves as they struggle to establish a sense of place against the stark background. When: Through Jan. 29 Where: Fort Greene/BRIC Arts (647 Fulton St.) Everything You Do Is Perfect Paintings by Nina Meledandri. When: Thursday-Sunday, through Jan. 28, 1-6 p.m. Where: Crown Heights/Five Myles (558 St. John’s Place) Chapter One: 212-Fed-High by Kishi Ui The work of Japanese avant-garde artist Kishi Ui, who received critical acclaim in Japan before moving to America in the mid1970s. The full exhibit will be a three-part series titled “Story of 2½.” This is his first solo exhibition since 1977.

talize the beauty and sheer joy of extraordinarily ordinary things. Behm’s hand-drawn journals are treasure troves of personal documentation and convey an intimate, wide-eyed look at a life lived in real time. With much of her artwork, Behm highlights a long love affair with Mexico and its deep folk traditions. Handmade paper, labels of elixirs and ephemera from Oaxaca are collaged into her signature ink drawings. Her “Day of the Dead” skeletons — there are a few gangling giants in this show — are more human than ghostly. Behm’s dramatic installation “1,000 Drawings of NYC,” last seen in 2016 at 440 Gallery, will be represented by a selection of drawings that include new works created for this show. When: Thursday-Sunday, through Feb. 12 Where: Park Slope/440 Gallery (440 Sixth Ave.) Rudy Shepherd: Everything in the Universe Is My Brother Rudy Shepherd’s solo exhibition features several bodies of work that are part of the artist’s ongoing investigation into the nature of evil. His portrait series depicts the faces of criminals and victims of crime. Making no visual distinctions between the two, the artist explores the complexity of their stories and the gray areas between innocence and guilt. In this way, Trayvon Martin, Kim Jong Un, Heather Heyer and Steve Bannon are all depicted in the group. By presenting the individuals first and their stories

second, Shepherd attempts to create a space for humanity to be reinserted into the lives of people who have been reduced to mere headlines in the press. When: Wednesday-Sunday, through Feb. 25, 12-6 p.m. Where: DUMBO/Smack Mellon (92 Plymouth St.) Kenseth Armstead: Master Work — Slaves of New York 1776 Part of Kenseth Armstead’s ongoing “Farther Land” project will envelop BRIC’s Project Room with one duck feather for each slave in the colony of New York at the time of the American Revolution. The sculptural forms and materials of his work are derived from revolutionary-era symbolic content and amounting to 20,000 feathers, each tarred onto a translucent perforated steel frame. Armstead directly challenges the denial and censorship necessary to perpetuate myths of meritocracy and the American Dream. Continued on page 10INB

Books Are Magic will host the Brooklyn Writers Space Reading Series on Friday, Jan. 19, to celebrate emerging writers from Brooklyn and share their recent work. This month, authors Gayle Kirschenbaum, Rachel Kash and Sally Kohn will participate. Kirschenbaum’s articles and essays have appeared in The Huffington Post, The New York Daily News, Newsweek, Ms., Tikkun, George, The New York Times and elsewhere. She started out in New York City as an editor at Ms., where she was the recipient of an Exceptional Merit Media Award, and is now a Brooklyn-based freelance writer, editor and community organizer focusing on labor rights in the domestic workplace. She was born and raised in southwestern Michigan, which is also the setting for her first novel, “The Memory of Motion.” Kash is a fiction writer who recently completed her first young adult novel, “The Creative Evolution Sally Kohn of Eloise Bloom.” Kash’s short stories have appeared in the journal Secret Behavior and received accolades from Pen Parentis and Glimmer Train, among others. She is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where she studied with Lorrie Moore. When she is not writing fiction, Rachel is a content writer and brand strategist for companies including Instagram and Pentagram. Kohn is one of the leading progressive voices in America today. The author of “The Opposite of Hate” (April 2018, Algonquin) and host of the “State of Resistance” podcast, Kohn is a CNN political commentator and columnist. Before that, she was a Fox News contributor — and before that, worked for more than 15 years as a community organizer. Her writing has appeared in the Washington Post, The New York Times, New York Magazine, More Magazine, RollingStone.com, Elle.com, USA Today, Time, Afar Magazine and many other outlets. She’s also a popular keynote speaker and frequently leads media and speaking skills workshops for grassroots activists and corporate leaders. The event begins at 7:30 p.m. at the store at 225 Smith St. in Cobble Hill.

Zadie Smith, the award-winning and best-selling British author, is back with a new collection of essays titled “Feel Free.” The superstar writer of fiction will appear at St. Ann and the Holy Trinity Church in Brooklyn Heights on Feb. 7 for an event hosted by Books Are Magic to discuss her new work with Pulitzer Prize-winning writer and criticat-large for The New York Times Wesley Morris. Arranged into five sections – In the World, In the Audience, In the Gallery, On the Bookshelf and Feel Free – this new collection poses questions we immediately recognize about topics including social networks, libraries and our legacy of global warming. Gathering in one place for the first time previously unpublished work, as well as already classic essays, such as “Joy” and “Find Your Beach,” “Feel Free” offers a survey of important recent events in culture and politics, as well as Smith’s own life. Equally at home in the world of good books and bad politics, Brooklyn-born rappers and the work of Swiss novelists, she is by turns wry, heartfelt, indignant and incisive – and never any less than perfect company. This is literary journalism at its zenith. “Feel Free” is currently available for pre-order at Penguin Random House’s website and will be on sale Feb. 6. Smith’s debut novel “White Teeth” immediately became a bestseller when published in 2000. Her other works, including “On Beauty” and

“Swing Time,” have won many awards and received widespread acclaim. After the talk, which begins at 7 p.m., Smith will be on hand to sign copies of her books.
