THERE IS SOMETHING INSPIRING about a family who has built some thing together, especially if that something is meant to help strengthen and heal an entire community. When you add in the fact that the mother-anddaughter team behind local nonprofit Vision Towards Peace had plenty of their own healing to achieve, you get a story of true resilience.
Vision Towards Peace, a Pittsburgh nonprofit with the mission of providing generational wellness to one person at a time, is led by owner and lead clinician
Erica Givner, with the help of her daugh ter Felicia Robinson.
At 15 years old, Givner was already a mother who had watched her own mother fall into the throes of addiction.
“We’ve been in poverty and homeless and domestic violence, addiction. There’s not a trauma our family has not experi enced literally,” Givner tells Pittsburgh
City Paper. During her mother’s recovery, Givner decided she needed to know all there was to know about this disease and how her mother fell victim to it.
“I just wanted to know what the hell happened to my mom,” she says.
Givner was determined to learn how her mother could go from washing her hair on a regular basis and provid ing meals for her neighbors to a dirty household and no longer being able to provide food for her own family. Seeking answers, the teenager went along with her mother to group therapy sessions
during her rehab.
The family has a history of addic tion, but Givner’s mother would be the first to seek help and go into treatment.
“Statistics says we should not be here,” Givner says. “You know what I’m saying? God’s hand is on our life. And we have a responsibility to do the same for others that we touch.”
Givner formed Vision Towards Peace over 10 years ago as a response to what she saw as a longtime stigma and fear in the Black community of seeking profes sional help for mental health issues.
“I opened VTP with a singular goal — provide a safe space for members of my community to work through their struggles, without judgment or preju dice,” says Givner.
Vision Towards Peace provides a long list of services, including individ ual, family, and group counseling ser vices that focus on depression, PTSD, crisis intervention, and women’s issues. Anyone who needs help is welcome, Givner says, but the goal is to provide services to the Black community.
It’s also intentional that all of the licensed clinicians at Vision Towards Peace are Black. “There’s nothing like a
Brown person or Black person being able to understand that historical trauma from that lens,” says Givner. “We come with this level of immediate connection and understanding.”
While building the business, Givner says her daughter was by her side the entire time.
Robinson, who is now working on her doctorate, started out at the front desk and helping with child care for clients during their sessions. She says she hadn’t planned on going into this line of work. “If you talked to me 12 years ago, I would have told you I will be on a construction site somewhere,” Robinson says.
Then, after attending college as a safety science major, her priorities
quickly shifted. “It really just comes down to family,” she adds. After having her son, Robinson, now 33, aimed to find an environment where he was safe and taken care of, and she found direction from her mother.
“I’m a strong and firm believer in the fact that when my mother wins, we all win,” Robinson says, “and so in what ever way I will be able to support that generational wellness and financial stability for our family to ensure that legacy, I’m going to do it.”
Even Givner’s mother helps with their operation; three generations working side-by-side to help make a change in the community where they are rooted.
Robinson is now the co-founder and
executive director of a A Peace of Mind, an extension of Vision Towards Peace. A Peace of Mind Wellness Space and Child Care Center is a therapeutic art studio offering a variety of programming, as well as daycare services for children.
Offering daycare is key to their mission because, without reliable child care, many of their clients wouldn’t be able to take the time needed to work on themselves. Givner says that predomi nantly mothers access the nonprofit’s mental health services.
“When they come to their appoint ments, they’re, like, ‘Who’s going to watch the child?’”
The family is transparent about where they come from, and they continue to practice what they preach after working hard to build trust, compassion, and strong bonds with the community and each other. Generational trauma can affect anyone, they show, but it only takes one person to make that first step toward healing with the intent of breaking the cycle.
“We’ve been in therapy,” Givner says. “You know, this took years. I tell people all the time, ‘What you see was, like, a lot of work.’” •

IF YOU WERE AT this year’s Deutschtown Music Fest and experienced a set complete with a blow-up unicorn humping the singers on stage in front of a dancing crowd full of folks sporting sparkly unicorn horn headbands, you might be quick to label the band as a fun gimmick. But behind the kitsch of God Hates Unicorns is a group of musicians with a drive to produce good songs and amplify others in the local music scene. But the silliness is admittedly a hell of a lot of fun.
Self-described as “dick rock” on all
their socials, God Hates Unicorns pro duces a mixture of ‘90s garage rock and playful, often angst-ridden punk.

The Pittsburgh band — c omprised of Joshua Hartz on vocals and keyboard, Jessica Zoric on vocals, Marcus Gabriel
on guitar, Matthew Crippen on bass, and Tim Saunders on drums — isn’t afraid to push boundaries by mixing in weird, occasionally fucked-up lyrics with their tight, synchronized tracks.
Like when Hartz and Zoric sing back and forth on the head-banging worthy “Chipped Ma’am” (a tongue-in-cheek reference to the much-loved Pittsburgh deli meat):
“It’s not all good in my clitoral hood.”
“Just a little snip” “off my little clit. It hurts a bit”
“I don’t give a shit.”
It’s one of the 11 songs from their 2021 album, No Gloryholes in Heaven, which Pittsburgh City Paper readers just voted as one of the best local albums of the year. “Chipped Ma’am,” the band tells City Paper, is about drawing attention to the harms of female circumcision. There’s a must-see video, too, edited by Gabriel and Crippen, featuring the band members on a picnic complete with, yes, chipped ham. But what could be seen as offensive becomes a kind of feminist anthem with the addition of Zoric.
The band got its start in 2015 as a
three-piece noise-rock band, and has changed a few members over the years before landing on its current line-up. Zoric says she got asked to be in the band with a question, “Would you be willing to sing ‘cunt?’”
She says the band is “still a little spicy, it’s still gonna catch your attention,” but the members agree they’re now more palatable and focused.
“It’s a lot like sitting at the lunch table with sixth graders,” says Gabriel, who describes their music as “PG-13 shock rock.”
Other members agree it’s “theatri cal,” but are also quick to point out that the band is inclusive and accepting of all identities, lest anyone thinks they have something against unicorns being a now-common symbol of the LGBTQ community. And they don’t want to be pigeonholed as a joke band.
They’re also surprisingly, well, normal and pleasant off-stage. City Paper met with the band, made up of mostly Gen Xers and one elder Millennial, on Hartz’s lovely suburban front porch just south of the city, while several young bandmem bers’ offspring occasionally peeked out of the window to ask, “Are you almost done with the interview?!”
One of those young kids, Hartz’s seven-year-old son, is also an honorary band member — you can hear his lyrics on their song “Not Your Day.” His dad says he overheard him singing “It’s OK if it’s not your day” in the shower, and it stuck with the band so much, they turned it into
the song’s chorus.
You can also experience the band’s more serious side on Thu., Oct. 20 when they release their latest track “Vigil,” fea turing a funky riff and a spirited chorus. (Crippen says he’s “a huge funk and pro gressive rock fan” and it comes through on this track.)
On Sat., Oct. 22, the band will take the stage at Half-Covered Halloween, a spooky-themed show at Ormsby Avenue Cafe and Outdoor Stage in Mt. Oliver. The show will feature multiple local bands covering performers from past versions of Ozzfest. God Hates Unicorns says they fought hard to be the ones to cover Primus. (The band promises several songs, including “Blue Collar Tweakers” with “a really cool medley and some sur prises,” according to Zoric.)
The band members say they try to practice at least once a week, and in addition to becoming a better band, they actively seek to highlight other local musi cians in the scene. During the pandemic, Hartz and Zoric launched a podcast, hilariously named Bands and Artists We Like and Support that Aren’t as Good as God Hates Unicorns, featuring fun and indepth interviews with local bands.
“We wanted to find a way to still be able to connect with other artists, make connections, meet new people, do things like that in the confines of our home,” says Zoric. They’ve since recorded over 50 episodes, something she says is really gratifying. “A lot of people find a lot of value in it.” •
Follow editor-in-chief Lisa Cunningham on Twitter @trashyleesuhBERNSTEIN had an impact on art and culture unknown to most people. The late artist left an indelible mark as a cover designer for Andy Warhol’s Interview magazine, transforming images of movie stars, models, musi cians, and other famous figures to the delight of readers. Besides being one of Warhol’s closest and longest-running collaborators, he endures as an influen tial queer artist whose career includes showcasing in galleries all over the world, and employing the daughter of Pablo Picasso as his assistant.
But to Rory Trifon, he was Uncle Richard.
“We had his artwork around our house, and my grandparents had his artwork around the house,” Trifon, who serves as the president of the Estate of Richard Bernstein, tells Pittsburgh City Paper during a phone interview. “And so, I was very much well aware of how beauti ful his art was. I didn’t know the context or that he kind of knew Andy Warhol and worked in that whole thing. But I just knew that he was an incredible artist. And he was a very loving, kind uncle.”
his earlier work, including sets of pop art paintings featuring gems and famous jewels, and pills.
“I don’t want to pigeonhole Richard to be the artist who only did the Interview magazine portraits,” says Trifon. “So it was important for me to talk about that genesis of Richard’s artwork, and how it relates to Andy’s as well, and how it all sort of formed.”
He adds that Bernstein did other works that were “kind of outrageous and scandalous,” including one called “Nude Beatles.”
“And it was the Beatles’ heads on these nude male bodies,” laughs Trifon. When the painting debuted in 1968 at the Paris-based Iris Clert Gallery, Trifon says a French judge filed an injunction against it because “queer art at the time was tremendously taboo.”
Trifon says Bernstein’s pill paintings caught the eye of Warhol, who decided to dispense some advice to the emerging artist. “And Andy kind of famously told Richard that he needs to stop painting pills and start painting people because that’s what pays the rent.”
When Warhol decided to revamp
Two decades after his death in 2002, Bernstein and his massive body of work has the spotlight again in Andy Warhol’s Social Network: Interview, Television and Portraits , an exhibition currently on view at The Andy Warhol Museum. Coordinated by curator Jessica Beck, the show focuses on the intersections between Interview magazine — consid ered Warhol’s longest-running project since its 1969 launch — his television work, and his late-career portrait commissions.
A highlight of the multi-floor exhibi tion gives due credit to Bernstein, whose Interview portraits made between 1972 and 1989 were often assumed to come from Warhol. On top of the many covers he designed, the gallery also showcases
Interview in 1972, he tapped Bernstein to do the cover portraits. Trifon says the first Interview cover portrait Bernstein completed was of model Donna Jordan for the May 1972 issue.
Trifon and his family inherited Bernstein’s work after his death. Since then, Trifon, who previously had a career in finance, has looked to display the many paintings and other pieces in ways that would properly honor his uncle’s legacy.
He describes Andy Warhol’s Social Network as being four years in the making, but Trifon’s efforts go back even further than that to 2016, when he started cataloging Bernstein’s work. He was instrumental in publishing Richard Bernstein Starmaker: Andy Warhol’s Cover Artist, a book that led to a solo exhibition
He adds that Bernstein did other works that were “kind of outrageous and scandalous.”
attended by Beck, who began to work with Trifon on the Warhol show.
Some of Bernstein’s art relates more personally to Trifon, who, while growing up as part of a close-knit Jewish family on Long Island, remembers going into New York City to visit his uncle, who lived and worked at the fabled Chelsea Hotel.

“You know, there was one time, I was maybe five or six, where I did actu ally meet Andy Warhol,” says Trifon. “I didn’t know who he really was, but I just remember this kind of crazy white hair, skinny, slight man who was very quiet. And, you know, looking back now it’s, like, oh, that’s cool, I got to meet Andy Warhol at Richard’s studio.”
He cites one pop art piece depicting the Tin Man from the 1939 big-screen
adaptation of The Wizard of Oz as signifi cant for his family, who watched the film every year when it aired on television.
“And Richard had an expression with [actress and musician Grace Jones] to always follow the yellow brick road,” says Trifon. “So, The Wizard of Oz really has a special meaning for us.”
In terms of Bernstein’s Interview portraits, Trifon cites one of model Cleo Goldsmith as being among his favor
And there are so many, there’s Mick Jagger dressed as Santa Claus with Iman and Paul von Ravenstein,” adds Trifon. “I mean, politics aside, Richard did one of Nancy Reagan, and she has turquoise hair. I just think it’s so outrageous to see the First Lady looking like that.”
Besides being an immensely talented artist, Trifon wants Bernstein to endure as someone who truly captured the excess and glamour-obsessed culture of his time, which fits into the overall mission of Andy Warhol’s Social Network.
“It provides a context as far as how our culture is today — the Kardashians, reality television, you know, really started with Andy and Interview magazine,” says Trifon. •
INMY WORK as a sex work advocate, I travel to universities and venues to talk about the harms of stigma on the sex work community.
A couple of years ago, I found myself at one such anti-stigma event alongside HIV+ comedian James Tison, who followed my dry lecture (you can take the girl out of academia …) with a stand-up routine that taught the audience more about living with HIV than any lecture I have been to.
Thankfully, for the sex worker rights movement, we are not all ex-academics; and Pittsburgh will soon have the oppor tunity be educated — and entertained by a similar icon in the industry.
Kaytlin Bailey, host of the Oldest Profession Podcast, and founder and executive director of Old Pros, a nonprofit media organization trying to create the conditions to change the status of sex workers in society, will be in town this weekend performing her one-woman stand-up show.
Whore’s Eye View, she tells Pittsburgh City Paper, is the “culmination of a lifetime of being obsessed with sex worker stories and sex worker history.” She describes it as “a mad dash through 10,000 years of history in 75 minutes: part aggressive history lecture, part comedy special, part one-woman show.”
We talked to her about the intersec tion of comedy and sex work ahead of her appearance at The Government Center in the North Side.
You are a former sex worker and a stand-up comic. How are these professions connected for you?
They’re both contrarian professions; jesters and whores play a similar role at court — we are allowed to push against boundaries that contain or constrain other courtiers, while also occupying a very vulnerable position. I feel part of a long legacy of non-conformists both in my capacity as a stand-up comic and in my capacity as a sex worker.
Do you think that the societal roles of jesters and whores have changed throughout history?
That’s complicated! One of the reasons why I got out of the stand-up comedy scene was because of its rampant

misogyny. It’s currently a place for reactive politics, whereas I think of sex workers — and specifically sex worker advocates — as the real freedom fighters.
I do think that sex workers and comics play a theoretically similar role in that we are both adjacent to — inside and outside of — traditional society. Comics travel the country. We’re notorious lone wolves, it can be very isolating. This is also true of sex work. They both have a subculture, and they both operate with a high degree of precarity: there are very few winners in these economies.
What do you think a comedy show can accomplish that a lecture or speech can’t? Why comedy?
If you can make people laugh, you can make people listen.
Sex work is said to be the “oldest pro fession,” but I think it is also probably the oldest stigma, so in talking about the history of sex work, I’m brushing up against a lot of difficult conversations and asking people to re-examine thousands of years of foundational beliefs.
I think humor creates an exploratory space that allows people to open them selves up to big questions in a way that straight history or political lectures don’t.
Entertainment allows us to open our empathetic minds, whereas we often go into political history or straight informa tion with our analytical or judgmental
minds. The analytical or judgmental mind is precisely the thing I’m asking people to let go of in this show.
I love that. What has the reception of this show been so far?
The show is still in the stage of develop mental reading, so I am so grateful to the audiences that have come to let me work out this show, which is also the ask in Pittsburgh.
That can be exciting for the audience, though. To see the show come into being.
You are being asked to come and watch a … maybe … a charismatic lady read from the page.
