Feedback Fight or Flight Regarding Randy LoBasso’s article about local advocacy group Fight for Philly: Fighting for jobs will not itself produce anything positive.

Adolf Hitler (temporarily) solved Germany’s economic problems by building up the military and going to war. And if international warfare is bad, class warfare within a country is probably worse. What is needed is an examination of God’s holy word in the bible and submission to it: Repentance.

Neither government nor capitalism itself is the problem; sin is the problem.

Some films, like Withnail & I and All That Jazz are worthless on television. Yet they come alive on the big screen. Thanks for the list.

West Philly’s Mariposa Food Co-op focuses on outreach on Baltimore Ave.

Growing Pains

Food for thought: The Mariposa co-op in West Philly is expanding and hopes to better serve more of the neighborhood.

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY November 30 - December 6, 2011 • 4

Strolling down Baltimore Avenue, the tiny Mariposa Food Co-op might be easy to miss were it not for the cluster of activity around its small purple and cyan storefront. Shoppers and delivery workers elbow for space in the store’s single entrance. Its two aisles are jammed with an array of fresh produce, grains and crates of food not yet stocked.

The cramped conditions are an unfortunate symptom of success. What started out as a scattered collection of buying clubs in the late 1960s blossomed into a cooperatively owned marketplace at 4726 Baltimore Ave., with more than 1,000 members who purchase a stake in the business and work hours in the store. In return, they receive access to the co-op’s stock of organic, locally produced, or sometimes hard-tofind food items as well as cheaper bulk goods than they could find as an individual.

Nearly 30 years later, 500 square feet of retail space was at capacity. For a time, new applications for membership were suspended. “About five years ago we really started feeling the growing pains of our current space, and realizing we … seriously needed to start looking for a new location or a second location,” says Bull Gervasi, a member and project manager for the co-op’s expansion.

Dreams of expansion went from fantasy to necessity. But more than simply accommodating more supplies for an expanded

roster of stakeholders, there was an even larger, albeit less tangible need.

To its members, the co-op is a culmination of alternative thought in Spruce Hill and Cedar Park, historical bastions in West Philadelphia for radicals of all stripes. It is a means to buy organically grown food from fair-trade suppliers, and it serves as a community meeting place. It is a business owned by neighbors, not a faceless company.

But some outside the co-op saw things differently. They thought it was a secluded club that catered primarily to the tastes and incomes of the wealthy, or white residents, or just simply hippies, depending on the perspective. Contrary to the co-op’s mission, it was inaccessible to most of the neighborhood.

It would be near impossible to seriously argue that the co-op is intentionally racist or classist. Membership is open to anyone, and the required equity payments (a minimum “buy-in” to help support purchasing power) are extremely flexible. There are anti-racism statutes built into the group’s foundational philosophy and a members’ committee that exists specifically to debate and combat conscious or unconscious racism’s impact on the organization.

In spite of these efforts, and although members are overwhelmingly drawn from the economically and ethnically diverse

surrounding area, the majority are white and middle-class. The “members only” rule for patronizing the store and its deliberately low profile on a commercial strip with few options for healthy food seemed evidence enough for these charges.

“We had been so pressed for space, for a long time there was no outreach or marketing,” says Gervasi. “A lot of people simply didn’t know what we were about or even who we were.” Part of the expansion included hiring an outreach coordinator specifically for the purpose of broadening the foundation of the co-op and creating a community survey to shape the new location.

“Right now there’s a neighborhood survey team going door to door, telling people about the co-op and the expansion and asking what they want to see in a store in the neighborhood,” says Gervasi. “We’re going to incorporate that into the new store.”

Capital Campaign Coordinator Leah Pillsbury adds, “There was also an idea that we only sell fresh, local, organic products” says Pillsbury, “if we only sold those things it would be very expensive ... we sell conventional items, too. With the expansion we’ll be able to sell an even wider range of products.”

Previous rules have also been relaxed to make the co-op more accessible. Nonmembers will be allowed to shop as much as they like, and members will receive a discount

and a say over the operation of the organization. Work requirements for members will no longer exist, although “working” members will receive an additional discount for their labor.

There is a physical component as well.

The new market space at 4824 Baltimore Ave., a block west from the current storefront, is a former bank building that housed a local church group. The imposing, columned structure was chosen in part because the church was eager to sell the building since it was difficult to maintain, but also because it was so prominent—a departure from the current unassuming storefront.

The plans include offices, increased storage capacity; food-prep areas; 2,500-square-feet of retail space; classrooms that will be open to members and the larger community; and, of course, 2,000 more square feet of retail space than the current location. That allows for lots of small changes that will radically alter shoppers’ experiences, and hopefully attract more patrons. “Right now you have one cashier and one system and if there’s a line, there’s a line. You have to wait. Now, we’ll be able to have multiple people on at peak time, and eventually an express lane. That kind of improvement in customer service is huge,” Pillsbury says.

Accommodating new amenities and renovating a historically certified building does not come without a price. At $2.6 million, the expansion would be an ambitious plan for the most savvy businessperson, let alone a democratically run organization of wellintentioned neighbors.

The largest single source of funding has come from members, but three-quarters was cobbled together from outside organizations that were sold on supporting the move through the efforts of volunteer board members, stakeholders and a tiny staff of full-time employees.

Sources of funding include major subsidized loans from the Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation, the state’s Department of Community Economic Development and the Reinvestment Fund. The sale of the old building, support from the Northcountry Co-op Development Fund, and numerous small grants and loans filled in the remainder.

What is most impressive about the expansion project is not its cost or its size. It is the larger story of Baltimore Avenue being remade by the people who live and shop there, of neighbors working to fill the voids left in the commercial fabric of the city after decades of neglect and depopulation. Now, Mariposa can join the restaurants, bakeries, cafes and small other small markets— owned and operated by residents of the neighborhood—that have populated the corridor in recent years.

“I like the idea of us taking over this old bank building, this huge institution,” says Pillsbury. “We want to be responsible and friendly, a neighborhood institution.” n

Anti-fracking advocates see stalled DRBC vote as a victory.

SATURDAY,

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY November 30 - December 6, 2011

The natural-gas industry is headed our way, and it’s getting very little attention and even less scrutiny from regulatory agencies. If the Delaware River Basin Commission (comprised of the governors of Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and a federal commissioner) votes to approve draft rules on gas development, companies that have already drilled thousands of natural-gas wells in Western and Northern Pennsylvania will have the go-ahead to drill deep underground shale near the streams and creeks that flow into the Delaware—the source of drinking water for 15 million people.

However, the DRBC has twice postponed its vote, and has yet to reschedule. DRBC spokeswoman Kate O’Hara says there are “issues to work through,” and that there is “no timeline at this point” when asked when the vote would be rescheduled. She declined further comment.

Meanwhile, anti-fracking advocates—long concerned with the possible health risks associated with drilling—declared the delay a victory over the industry and see it as a possible stalemate over industrializing the river basin.

“There is no sane, credible, sensible argument for going forward with drilling based on what we know,” says Maya van Rossum, an attorney who heads the Delaware River Keeper. The nonprofit filed a lawsuit in August with the attorney general of New York and Philadelphia’s City Council against the Army Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies, arguing that allowing drilling to

Gas Tanked

take place violates the 1969 National Environmental Policy Act, by moving forward in the Delaware River without doing an impact assessment. The suit calls for a study on health and environment before large-scale industrial operations can take place. “People are getting sick, drinking water is getting polluted, air is getting polluted, soil is getting polluted,” says van Rossum. “Jobs are being lost. A tremendous amount of harm is being done because of industrial shale gas drilling.”

However, the lawsuit would probably do little to halt development. If the DRBC votes in favor of drilling, construction could begin in as little as 60 days—unless a court finds a reason to issue an injunction that would halt operations.

The industry is known for swift development. In Colorado, less than six months after approval, 10 well pads were built on the Colorado River, the “source of agricultural and drinking water for 25 million people downstream,” according to a report on natural gas by the Endocrine Disruption Exchange (TEDX).

City Council is right to be concerned. The natural-gas industry is exempt from the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Clean Air Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act. And Pennsylvania legislators have already signed off on allowing tankers to transport liquefied natural gas from Marcus Hook to the Gulf of Mexico. If natural-gas drilling happens in the upper Delaware, Philadelphia will be on top of a port, downwind of drilling to the west, and downstream of operations in the north.

And to date, there has not been a single cumulative impact study on the effects on health, water or the environment, even though some parts of the country have been extracting gas for nearly a decade. The EPA started an assessment this spring, which will be finished next year and released in 2014.

According to the TEDX report, chemicals used in drilling and fracking, and emitted during the industrial process, can cause flulike symptoms, rashes, tingling and numbness, heart and lung problems, and more.

People can be affected as far as 200 miles away from natural-gas areas, the report says.

Still, the natural-gas industry has overwhelming political support. Gov. Tom Corbett, whose election campaign was heavily supported by the industry, recently advised legislators on an impact-fee bill for Pennsylvania, in which companies would pay a tax for drilling. The tax would go toward rebuilding infrastructure, cleanup, and environmental programs, but in exchange local municipalities would have to give up their regulatory and zoning powers. The state would decide how to regulate the industry, and the governor’s advisory committee has a number of industry representatives on it. n

Pa s t T e n t s After eviction, where does Occupy Philly Go? Text and photographs by Michael Alan Goldberg mgoldberg@philadelphiaweekly.com

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY November 30 - December 6, 2011 •

Even during the earliest planning stages of Occupy Philly—when the idea of taking over a public space somewhere in the city in solidarity with Occupy Wall Street was still a nebulous dream—the 99% knew it wouldn’t last forever.

“I’m sure [the city will] try to shut us down,” facilitator Nik Zalesky said in late September, “but we’ll do it as long as we can.”

For nearly two months, Occupy held Dilworth Plaza, transforming the concrete space around City Hall into a colorful, controversial protest camp. They screamed about corporate greed, wealth inequality and social injustice. They marched through the streets, chased U.S. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor out of town, and got arrested sitting on bridges and in bank lobbies. They weathered snowstorms, infighting, ridicule and shouts of

“Get a job!” and “Take a fucking bath!” from passersby.

They fed and sheltered the homeless gravitating in large numbers to the encampment, then struggled to deal with the deteriorating health and safety conditions that both the city and the movement itself blamed on the homeless.

They watched as occupations in New York, Oakland and elsewhere turned ugly, with violent police raids and mass arrests, and wondered when it would happen here—even though the PPD had been more benevolent to Occupy Philly demonstrators than just about any other police force in the country had been to their own Occupiers.

By last Friday, though, Mayor Nutter—who’d presided over the “most polite” occupation in the nation—finally had enough, and gave the shutdown order that Occupy Philly long expected.

But as 5 p.m.—the hour of eviction, as decreed by Nutter—loomed on Sunday, you could feel the electricity pulsing through Dilworth Plaza: A mix of tension, nervous anticipation and excitement that hadn’t reached this level since that first morning of the occupation on Oct. 6.

Hundreds of defiant Occupiers intent on spurning the order and risking arrest scurried around spray painting abandoned tents with final messages for city cleanup crews (“You’re drunk with power … it’s time to sober up,” read one), and sewing “unarmed person” patches to their jackets. The usual chants of “We are the 99 percent!” and “This is what democracy looks like!” sprung up repeatedly across the grounds. A new rallying cry cropped up, too: “Phase two, coming soon!”

“Trust me, dude, this is only the start,” said Occupier Shawn McMonigle, standing in the middle of the plaza as a fellow demonstrator dismantled his tent a few yards away. “People who think this thing is dead are completely mistaken.”

Nearby, other demonstrators drew slogans on pieces of cardboard, worn furniture and the backs of empty pizza boxes: “You can’t evict an idea,” “We’ll be back” and “Coming to a neighborhood near you …”

Another man walked around the plaza holding his sign aloft: “Where next? It’s a surprise!”

“Don’t worry, you’ll see,” he said when asked what the surprise might entail.

By twilight, more than a thousand people filled the plaza and more than a hundred Occupiers sat down, arms entwined, chanting and waiting for the cops to come in and enforce the eviction order.

The Godfather It didn’t happen. But in the days since, the encampment’s population has dwindled to just a few dozen diehards. Only a handful of tents remain. Most of the homeless have been relocated to a new tent city in Port Richmond. City cleanup crews have already started removing the garbage and possessions left behind. The city appears content to let Occupy Philly flame out on its

own, rather than incite the confrontation and possible PR disaster it’s tried to avoid over the past two months.

Clearly, the occupation of Dilworth Plaza is over. But people both within and outside the movement are waiting to find out what Phase II of the fledgling movement, following the demise of the round-the-clock encampment, will look like.

The city’s already extended one offer—a 30-day, potentially renewable demonstration permit at the adjacent Thomas Paine Plaza. But there are restrictions: Occupy Philly daily activity is limited to 9 a.m. until 7 p.m.; and no tents or overnight activity or sleeping is permitted.

“I have no idea what’s gonna happen next, and I don’t really like their offer,” says Lex, a member of Occupy Philly’s safety group, “but I know this is just the beginning for us.”

Of the many Occupations around the country, Occupy Philly is in the middle of the pack as far as dealing with the loss of 24/7 camping. Occupiers in Boston, Seattle and Los Angeles are still fighting eviction efforts, while those in N.Y.C., Oakland and Portland, Ore., have gotten a head start on that next phase.

On Black Friday, several hundred Occupy Wall Streeters packed New York’s Zuccotti Park—ground zero for the movement—to maintain their General Assembly, daily protests and working groups despite losing their encampment in a Nov. 15 raid marked by police brutality.

Ringed by metal barricades and a couple hundred cops in a two-block radius, demonstrators dealt with the new rules. No blankets, tents or tarps. They’re allowed to be in the park 24 hours a day, and still are, but if they so much as lay on the ground (ostensibly to sleep) they’re subject to immediate arrest.

“Watch this,” says “Mad Mike,” a burly 26-year-old with a Guy Fawkes mask perched on the back of his head who proceeds to sprawl out on the concrete. Indeed,

Out of Sight

“This movement has to spread out beyond the big cities—you gotta get people in the ’burbs on board if you want real change.”

Protesters are ready for the next step

within seconds, three scowling NYPD cops approach, but back off when they see he’s being interviewed by a reporter. “It’s ridiculous and unconstitutional,” says Mike, getting back up. “This is what you have to look forward to in Philly. How else are they gonna keep people from sleeping there?”

Other OWSers said Occupiers in Philly, post-encampment, will have to deal with further hindrances in the coming months. “It gets pretty fuckin’ cold in the winter,

so good luck if you can’t have any kind of shelter,” says Roman Reznichenko, who spent a week at Occupy Philly in late October. He adds that there are transportation issues, too. “If you’re not camping down there, you gotta get there and I know I couldn’t afford that,” he says. “I know a lot of [Occupiers] who are from Jersey or out in the sticks and they don’t have the money to go back and forth every day.”

And if the encampment itself has been part of the

message, then having to pack up shop every night could kill the momentum. “Out of sight is out of mind,” says Zuccotti Park mainstay John Nicholson, a 25-year-old EMT worker. “The press isn’t gonna cover it nearly as much without the camping and some of the drama that’s gone along with that, so if people aren’t devoted to sticking around all night and keeping it going and challenging them when they say you can’t be there, then this could all fade away pretty fast,” he says.

Other Zuccotti demonstrators say that the forced removal of the encampment has actually been a blessing—one that Occupy Philly may come to understand going forward.

“Things needed to change here, so taking all that away and

forcing us to rebuild has helped,” says Melissa, 25, who was arrested in the Nov. 15 raid. “Everyone who’s still here really cares about the movement.”

Hristo Boynob, 18, agrees the raid helped weed out the less committed and took away one of the main sources of scorn that’s been heaped on the movement. “There’s no more free food, no more parties and whatnot, so a lot of the provocateurs and the homeless and the crazies are gone and the people left are the true believers,” he says.

Crucial for Occupy Philly’s survival over the next few months, say N.Y.C. protesters, is for them to cultivate the same type of support network that’s sustained Occupy Wall Street over the past two weeks. Melissa says she

and other demonstrators have linked up with people living near Zuccotti Park who let Occupiers crash in their apartments for a few hours at a time. Nicholson says that pizza joints and other local restaurants continue to donate food. “We respected those places and didn’t trash their bathrooms, so they’re still willing to help us,” he says.

There’s been talk that the attention-grabbing encampments and accompanying sit-ins and marches have already served the purpose of kickstarting Occupy, so the next phase of the movement should involve giving up the protest sites and migrating to the Internet, where information can be more efficiently disseminated and the movement’s energy redirected into more pragmatic pursuits like voter education and mobilization.

Chris Faraone—a reporter with The Boston Phoenix who’s been covering Occupy Boston and has spent time at a dozen more Occupy sites around the country the past two months—disagrees. “Whether it’s occupationcamping mode or not, I see a physical presence being the watermark of this movement,” says Faraone. “People really need to get together in person to make plans for these events and marches, which I really think are working. I think it’s now in the back of these CEOs’ minds that, ‘Fuck, 3,000 people are gonna show up at my office.’ The head of Bank of America in Boston does not like the fact that 500 people show up at his house once a week. That kind of thing isn’t gonna happen if you move everything to the Internet.”

One likely evolution of Occupy Philly is a de-centralization of the movement, where participants break off into smaller occupations all around the area.

In fact, it’s already happening. On Saturday, a dozen members of Occupy Norristown set up their “99%” banners outside the Montgomery County Courthouse and stood along Main Street holding their signs—as they have every week for about a month—as passing cars honked their support. Several demonstrators, like elementary school teacher Karen Rosenberg, started out at Dilworth Plaza before trying to bring the message closer to home.

“This movement has to spread out beyond the big cities—you gotta get people in the ’burbs on board if you want real change,” says Rosenberg, who holds a large sign that reads, “Save the American Dream.”

“The middle class is getting squeezed to the point where I have to come out here into the street,” says Hank Finkel, a chiropractor who says he’s recently taken two other jobs to make ends meet. “I’m not an activist.

I’ve never stood anywhere with a sign. In fact, I kind of resent that no one’s looking out for me, so I have to do it myself.”

They’re not camping out at Occupy Norristown, but Finkel says they get anywhere from 20 to 50 demonstrators in front of the courthouse each Saturday. They’ve also been coordinating with similarly sized occupations (some of which are encampments) in Bucks County, Phoenixville, Lansdale, Lancaster, Easton and elsewhere in Eastern Pennsylvania, as well as with Occupy Philly, to plan marches and events. They’ve scheduled a Dec. 17 regional General Assembly in Valley Forge. And some may take part in Occupy Bucks County’s “March for Good Jobs” scheduled to go down this Saturday in Bristol.

“It’s the networking right now that’s important— meeting other activists, setting up the infrastructure and coming up with new ideas for the movement,” says Finkel. “I think come springtime, when we have everything in place, you’re gonna see bus trips to D.C., big and little things, flash mobs here and there, lots of things to keep this rolling.”

“The camping in Philly sparked the fire,” he says.

“Now the genie’s out of the bottle and there’s no putting it back.” n

Matt Kish’s Moby-Dick

Face it, captain. Even though Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick is one of the canonical books everyone’s supposed to read in order to be a “good person,” you still haven’t read it. Most people still know what it’s about on at least a cursory level: Captain Ahab’s maniacal quest to snag the big whale at any cost. He’s so determined to overcome the beast, the lives of his shipmates lose importance. Ohioan artist Matt Kish, who’s at Brickbat Books tonight, embarked on a similarly bonkers mission in 2009 when he started illustrating his 552-page Signet Classics paperback copy of Moby-Dick.

Using a variety of mediums—layered images, pen, pencil, crayon, watercolor—Kish created an image for each page inspired by the text. The blog he started to document the project led to a book, Moby-Dick In Pictures: One Drawing For Every Page, which was published this year

Ah, Belgium. You know, that small-ish country that borders France, Germany, the Netherlands and Luxembourg? Yeah, Belgium’s got a lot going for it (besides not having a fully formed government right now). It serves as headquarters for the E.U., NATO and other super important international organizations.

More importantly, it produces more than 500 varieties of beer. There’s one in particular that you may know well: Saison Dupont. Its maker, Brasserie Dupont, has been around for more than 150 years. They know their shit. Which is why this year’s official international Philly Beer Week brew is going to be delicious— because Brasserie is going to help make it.

And so can you, if you go to City Tap House in West Philly tonight and pay $5 to enter a raffle. If you win, you and a local brewer of your choosing fly free of charge to Belgium to witness this momentous brewing event.

Oh, yeah, there’s another prize you can win if you enter: PBW’s “Beer-Stravaganza,” which includes the opportuninty to help brew PBW’s

Koresh: A Pathway to the Future

oni Koresh is no stranger to Philadelphia—his dance company has been around for 20 years, and he’s called the city home for 30. His dance school is one of the most successful around, and features an outreach program in Philadelphia public schools, dance classes that are open to adults of all levels, and a pre-professional training program. The choreography is where Koresh’s Israeli roots shine.

Famed for his moves that aren’t based on a single technique, Koresh’s constantly evolving dances are powerful and passionate.

To celebrate the Koresh Dance Company’s 20th anniversary, this season’s shows draw from previous years’ productions, displaying the transformation of Koresh’s work over time. Trishula PaTel

Jessica Lea Mayfield Jessica Lea Mayfield sure can have a deceivingly gentle presence. At the beginning of the video for “Kiss Me Again” off 2008’s With Blasphemy So Heartfelt, the Ohioan sits unassumingly with an acoustic in hand—a naïve waif in a strapless dress who isn’t quite sure of what she’s doing there. Then, out pour those spare notes, unadorned lyrics, and lovably simple “Ah-uh-ah” refrain, and you realize that Mayfield knows exactly what she’s doing. Like sundry balladeers and outlaw cowboys past, she’s there to do her bloodletting with guitar in hand, using agonized revelations to slice deep into the listener. (Key lines: “You can touch me if you wanna/ Oh, I don’t really care/ But I have ruined everything that I’ve ever loved.”)

Mayfield is now of legal drinking age, yet she wrote most of Blasphemy around 16.

If we can be cruel for art’s sake, hopefully she continues to find reason to write such penetrative confessionals. reYaN ali

Creative and individual while still maintaining a political and collaborative approach, it provides unique insight into how HIV/AIDS changed social, political and cultural life in the 30 years since the virus was named. Curated by David Acosta, it features two dozen artists who explore the virus across race, gender, sexual orientation, age and geographical location. Whether or not your own life is immediately impacted by HIV/AIDS, Witness welcomes you to participate in the conversation, believing that the virus, even 30 years later, has unmistakable influences on all of our day-to-day lives. kYle bella 6-8pm.

oted actor and avantgarde playwright David Greenspan brings his highly acclaimed and utterly unique solo show The Myopia: An Epic Burlesque of Tragic Proportions to Bryn Mawr College this week. Utilizing nothing more than a chair and a curtain as props, in Myopia Greenspan stakes his claim as one of the world’s great storytellers. Portraying 22 characters, including President Warren G. Harding, a giant woman trapped in a castle with her overbearing mother and a man who has spent his life writing a musical about the unremarkable Harding, Greenspan uses his voice to conjure images that are both strange and vivid. A minimalist work that although devoid of special effects creates a spectacle worthy of a Broadway musical, Myopia is ultimately a celebration of theater as a living entity that exists not only on stage, but in the collective minds of the audience.

You wouldn’t expect something this playful to emerge from two (traditionally dour) Germans recording in a windowless WWII bunkercum-studio. Yet the duo’s breakthrough 2007 debut, Idealism, bubbles with airy vibrancy and a crackling minimalist dance-rock mien lifted from Daft Punk. It’s funky enough for the dancefloor but without the benumbed, braindeadened vibe. “You can’t see anything [in the bunker] so you travel with your mind and that makes you really creative,” explains Jens Moelle, who met his partner at a record shop ala High Fidelity. The follow-up, I Love You Dude, is still banging, if somewhat woollier.

The real complaint’s that they’re trying so hard it often comes off calculated and contrived instead of joyously indifferent. CHris parker 9pm. $15-$17. With Data Romance + American Royalty. Trocadero, 1003 Arch St. thetroc.com

Fuck That: The Anti-Holiday Show Sprightly musician Erin McKeown has what is by any measure a great career. In little more than a decade, the singer and multiinstrumentalist has released seven full-length records featuring enjoyable takes on folk, swing and rock ’n’ roll. She’s even currently a fellow at Harvard University’s Berkman Center for Internet & Society. Despite her success, it turns out that this talented queer artist has long been harboring a dark secret: She loathes the holidays. Given the consumer frenzy that seizes our nation during this time, expressing even a smidgen of ambivalence regarding the Yuletide season can get one branded a freak.

McKeown’s not one for half measures, though.

Her latest record includes tracks like “Santa Is An Asshole,” which identifies jolly St. Nick as “an icon of the Right,” and “It’s a Very Queer Christmas,” which enumerates all the humiliations suffered by every homosexual who’s ever brought a partner home for Christmas dinner.

Sound appealing? Then come out to hear this curmudgeonly caroler parody old chestnuts like “Silver Bells” and play other lumps of coal from her anti-holiday record. rayMond siMon 8pm. $24-$34. World Cafe Live, 3025 Walnut St. 215.222.1400. worldcafelive.com

colleague of mine when, in another lifetime, I was a freelance music writer for Seattle alt-weekly The Stranger. Fuller disclosure: I never actually met Zac in person, so I feel that I can totally gush about his excellent Portland, Ore.-based band without compromising my integrity. They’re magnetic and repulsive in equal measures—just how I dig it. Like Xiu Xiu, they pump jarringly gorgeous New Wave/ post-punk melodies with deeply disturbing psychosexual drama. In and out.

Martha Marcy May Marlene The title is a mouthful, and confusing. Even people I know who love this film can’t seem to remember what it’s called. But then, that’s kind of the point. Writer-director Sean Durkin’s altogether astonishing debut feature is all about a loss of identity and that slippery slope between the past and the present. Played by the heretofore unknown Elizabeth Olsen (yep, kid sister to those annoying twins) we follow Martha as she tries to break away from a freeloving, Manson-esque cult and get back to “normal” life. The film’s unique spell will stay with you long after watching. sean burns 6:30pm. $5-$8. Through Dec. 8. The Colonial Theatre, 227 Bridge St. thecolonialtheatre.com

Snoop Dogg + Wiz Khalifa Snoop Dogg’s Doggystyle is one of the best hiphop albums ever. He took the G-Funk aesthetic perfected on Dr. Dre’s The Chronic, which he worked on one year earlier, and translated it into house-party music. Traces of gnarly street violence persisted, but the gangsters partied harder than they gang-banged. While not as harmless as Kid ‘N Play’s schoolboy spunk, Doggystyle significantly shifted away from the tough gangsta grind. Snoop ultimately paved the way for young spitters like Pittsburgh’s Wiz Khalifa, whose Kush & Orange Juice mixtape’s a nod to Doggfather classic “Gin and Juice.”

RIVE TO END HUNGER

SOME PEOPLE CAN’T AFFORD TO SPLURGE ON CERTAIN LUXURIES — FOR EXAMPLE, FOOD. Every day nearly nine million older Americans, including 16% of older Pennsylvanians, face the risk of hunger. They’re our friends, our neighbors and our family, and they don’t want to be a burden, so they suffer in silence. That’s why AARP and AARP Foundation have teamed up for Drive to End Hunger. Give your support at DriveToEndHunger.org today.

Bullying Behind Bars Pa.'s juvenile detention centers fail to protect LGBT youth.

By Laura Rena Murray feedback@philadelphiaweekly.com

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY November 30 - December 6, 2011 • 20

boy’s arm when he was 13. While in detention, Williams says he suffered emotional and physical abuse at the hands of other kids as well as staffers.

The lanky and soft-spoken teenager was openly gay when he was arrested and charged with assault, which he says was self-defense against gay bashing. Williams remembers the boy taunting him because of his sexuality.

“He said if I walked away, he was going to hit me,” Williams says. “I knew that if I let that boy hit me, I could have been dead the next day or hurt and in the hospital.” He was sentenced to two years at a private, nonprofit residential treatment institution, George Junior Republic, in Grove City. It was there that Williams says he experienced physical abuse at the hands of staff.

“They would slam you on your neck when you’re not even doing nothing,” he says. He points to an incident in which one staff member punched him in the eye while breaking up a fight between him and another boy. “When he grabbed me, he threw me on the ground. He was trying to act like he was holding my arms when he hit me.

I had a black eye the next day.”

Philadelphia’s DHS commissioner, Anne Marie Ambrose, cites homophobia and the resulting abuse by some staff at the Youth Study Center as a serious concern. “The detention experience, because staff sometimes aren’t trained and aren’t sensitive and aren’t respectful, can be a horrific experience for LGBT youth,” says Ambrose. “Sometimes we’ve had in the past taunting, teasing, really disrespectful, completely inappropriate and unprofessional actions on the part of [our] staff.”

In May 2009, Ambrose attended a town-hall meeting where LGBT youth met with officials to testify about their experiences with DHS. She said the stories she heard “devastated” her, including the young woman who would go on to file charges against the Youth Study Center. “I believed everything that she was saying,” Ambrose says.

“The things she experienced were real and that was painful as the person who … You know I’m responsible for the well-being of these kids.”

After the meeting, DHS established a nondiscrimination policy mandating fair and equal treatment for LGBT detainees by the Youth Study Center staff and providers.

Carrie Jacobs, executive director of the Attic Youth Center, estimates that 15 percent of the 1,000 LGBT kids who seek services at the Attic have cycled through the juvenile justice system. Jacobs believes most are targeted by police in the city’s Gayborhood and picked up for truancy when they skip school to avoid harassment. Jacobs believes there is also a racial component. “They’re targeting the young African-American boys who are out there and happen to be LGBT, and they’re there because traditionally it’s been a safer place for them.” g r eg h o u sto n

This summer, Pennsylvania was forced to come to terms with some of its failing juvenile justice systems. In August, Judge Mark Ciavarella Jr. was sentenced to 28 years for his role in the Luzerne County “Kids for Cash” scandal, in which he sentenced thousands of youth to private, forprofit juvenile detention centers in exchange for payment.

Later that month, Philadelphia’s Department of Human Services (DHS) settled with a young transgender female for discrimination and abuse she suffered during her time in the city’s juvenile detention facility, the Youth Study Center, as a result of her gender identity.

And another day of reckoning is on the way.

National statistics show lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered youth in juvenile detention facilities fare worse than their heterosexual peers. According to a 2009 collaborative report, “Hidden Injustice,” by the National Juvenile Defender Center, Legal Services for Children and the National Center for Lesbian Rights: “Staff and other youth regularly subject LGBT youth to shocking physical, sexual, and emotional abuse on the basis of their actual or perceived sexual orientation and gender identity.” The report further states, “Facility staff sometimes instigate or facilitate fights or sexual abuse between youth.” It also revealed that 80 percent of professionals who work in juvenile justice across the country reported a lack of safety in detention as a serious problem for LGBT youth.

LaQuan Williams, 16, wound up serving close to two and a half years in juvenile detention after breaking another

Once in the system, Jacobs says the kids continue to be targeted by homophobic staff who act according to personal bias instead of protecting LGBT youth from attacks.

As a result, youth fight back and continue to get in to more trouble. “There’s no restorative or reformative components,” Jacobs says. “If you want to make a criminal, you put him in the juvenile justice system and he will become one. That’s a horrible thing to say but it’s been my experience, over and over.”

Like Williams, 24-year-old Nakiya Bradshaw says she endured abuse in Pennsylvania’s juvenile detention centers, then went through a number of transfers. After coming out as a transgendered girl when she was 14, Bradshaw started running away from home to escape her mother’s verbal and physical abuse. By the time she was 15, she was locked up for solicitation and sent to Philadelphia’s Youth Study Center, where she was housed with boys, although she identified as female. Bradshaw says she endured intimidation, cruel jokes and sexual abuse.

“One of the staff tried to have sex with me,” she said. “They moved him across the hall but he would still come over and talk loudly about me.”

After being marked as “failure to adjust” (FTA), a commonly reported result following assaults by staff, according to LGBT youth—kids who are classified as FTA are relocated to a new facility or placement and are not granted time already served—Bradshaw was transferred to Green Chimneys in New York City and eventually flown to a facility in Tennessee. Neither out-of-state placements worked out for Bradshaw and she ultimately returned to Pennsylvania.

At 17, Bradshaw was transferred to Weaversville Intensive Treatment Unit in Northampton, Pa., a postdisposition correctional facility for violent male offenders between the ages of 14 to 21. There, Bradshaw says she and other transgendered girls were harassed nonstop by staff and other youth. Bradshaw remembers being subjected to forced isolation because of her feminine appearance.

When she refused to submit to punishments like scrubbing the walls with a toothbrush, the repercussions were extreme. “When it was snowing outside, they took clothes and bedding out of my room,” she says. “They took everything out of the room and left the windows open.”

Commissioner Ambrose acknowledges that some of Philadelphia’s experiments with sending youth to other state programs have failed. “LGBT youth are inappropriately made a part of the juvenile justice system by default, because ideally they wouldn’t be rejected by their families,” she says. The search for placements both in and out of state is a problem that Philadelphia continues to grapple with.

Currently, Philadelphia is one of six Pennsylvania counties participating in a pilot program with the Annie E. Casey Foundation to implement the Juvenile Alternatives Development Initiative (JDAI), which aims to eliminate “unnecessary or inappropriate detention” and improving existing facilities. According to one of the foundation’s directors, Bart Lubow, Pennsylvania will be joining 35 other states that have designed and implemented JDAI. By working with the Casey Foundation, Pennsylvania’s Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission hopes to strengthen the state’s new juvenile justice system enhancement strategy. Keith Snyder is the statewide coordinator overseeing the reform efforts, which officially began in October.

“This is the beginning of a state-wide effort to standardize the decision-making efforts to place kids in detention facilities,” Snyder says.

Ambrose believes that Philadelphia will lead the way in statewide reform. “We’re determined to do whatever is necessary to help our kids,” she says. “The voice of the youth needs to be part of any planning that we’re doing.” n

Pleasure Rush is a privately funded, volunteer-run sex positive education program of the Gay and Lesbian Latino AIDS Education Initiative. Its main focus is reducing risk, creating communication and building communities through open dialogues on sexuality in the context of online and in-person multimedia events. To debut their newest educational video, Pleasure Rush is hosting “Pleasure Rush 101: After School Special.” Pegged as an educational dance party and fundraiser, it’ll feature sex-education stations, a photography booth, dancing and drinks to help facilitate these dialogues in a way that actively links pleasure with health, avoiding the traditional models that emphasize the negative consequences of risky sexual behaviors.

Though many of the videos and conversations were initially centered on gay and bisexual men, Pleasure Rush remains committed to promoting an understanding that sex and sexuality are healthy, natural and integral to all LGBTQ communities.

The latest installment of the Erotic Literary Salon features Sam Benjamin, who’ll read from American Gangbang, a memoir of his sojourn in the porn industry, and two regulars, John and Walter, who’ll discuss the mechanics of masturbation. The diversity of topics is typical for the monthly soiree, which Susana Mayer has beenlovingly nurturing for more than three years. The salon came about quite organically, according to the hostess: It’s the result of both her lifelong love of erotica and her academic research into the wellsprings of women’s sexual desire. The get-togethers initially resembled the famed Parisian salons, where a coterie of authors gathered to share their work, but the event quickly evolved into something larger and more inclusive. It now attracts about 70 people who come to enjoy the frank celebration of sexuality from across the entire Kinsey Scale. Nowadays, attendees are as likely to hear a cellist accompany himself while reading from Rumi as they are to hear an author read from her novel in progress. Equal parts muse and midwife, Mayer’s editorial stance is all-embracing: She neither reviews the work beforehand nor discourages presenters from tackling whatever tickles their fancy. Consequently, the gatherings include everything from coy tales of blushes and bodices to hardcore descriptions of gay bondage. (R.S.) Tues., Dec. 20, 7:30pm. $8-$10.

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY November 30 - December 6, 2011

Christmas arrives early this year, thanks to the lovely ladies at Sisters Nightclub.

Philly’s only lesbian bar will be hosting a fabulous holiday extravaganza on each of the three Saturdays leading up to the big day. Best of all, these soirees won’t break your budget or put a crimp in your Yuletide shopping. Admission is free until 10:30 for everyone who prints a copy of the flier off the web, and the boozehounds will appreciate the generous happy hour, which features $2 drinks between 9 and 11 p.m.

Unlike Santa, a mean top who punishes naughtiness, revelers are encouraged to get into some mischief. So instead of playing pool or chilling in the ground-floor lounge, make your way upstairs to the dance floor, a friendly space where everyone can get down. That’s also where Sisters Sirens, the club’s own troupe of dancers, will be mixing and mingling with the crowd. These elfin cuties aren’t your typical go-go girls.

The group, which does its own choreography and makes its costumes, includes a professional belly dancer, a pole-dance fitness instructor and even a Ph.D. At the stroke of midnight, they’ll put on a holiday-themed number. A Nativity play it ain’t. “It’ll be something that emphasizes sexiness over Christmas,” promises Timaree Schmit, one of the sexy hoofers.

Let’s hope that management decorates the establishment with plenty of mistletoe.

This was the way a number of dishes went here, and the cumulative effect was of a growing frustration that, darnit, if only that one component had been executed with more precision, the entire procession of plates would have added up to something really remarkable. Beef thani, anchored by a light, savory oyster sauce and mushrooms that had absorbed all that glorious umami, fell short from its strips of chewy beef.

Shrimpburi salad was better—much better, in fact—simply because those sweet crustaceans had been poached and removed from their liquid before they’d grown tough. Turns out they were among the best-prepared proteins I tasted here. The full intelligence of the recipe shone through as brightly as I hope the others eventually do.

It’s that time of year again—when local artisans come together and sell their array of unique creations for low, low prices in hopes that, in the spirit of the holidays, residents will be more inclined to open up their purse strings and recognize the value of original, handmade art. To help make this happen, the Fishtown artist space and gallery Part Time Studios will be hosting its second annual small-works holiday group show. The studio has been accepting submissions from local artists all month and will be narrowing the field down to 30 artists whose work—all smaller than 24x24 and less than $150—will be on display and for sale through the end of the holiday season.

In Active Surplus, Daniel Lefcourt turns out a strikingly cohesive show for an exhibition that claims to align itself with the halfway finished. Although the show’s description cites the preparations that go into creating any exhibition (building walls, crafting models of the actual artwork to determine layout, etc.) as an influence, Lefcourt seems just as interested in excavating the remains of an exhibition as fixated by the steps that go into building one.

If you’re curious about what young artists really have to offer, here’s your chance to see their clever, visually stimulating work with your own eyes. Jim Anderson, better known as “GRIMGRIMGRIM,” is teaming up with Phonographic Arts for a night of punk-rock music, art and cheap beer. The night’s musical acts include the Baltimore foursome Roomrunner, In Heat and Philly’s own Harsh Vibes. Fun fact: Anderson is close friends with the members of Harsh Vibes and invited them to play at his first local solo show at Danger Danger Gallery— the show he says really launched their career. Anderson’s work is a mixture of graphic design and scanned drawings with influences from pop art and poster design.

Taking its title from the third book in William S. Burroughs’ The Red Night trilogy, The Western Lands turns Little Berlin’s courtyard and gallery space into a maze of hanging cardboard passageways and makeshift caves. For this second exhibition, curator Tyler Kline invited an energetic crew of international street artists to send him stickers and wheat pastes, which he plastered over his cardboard constructions. The result is urban hieroglyphics that—paired with the larger artist projects in the space—act as a visual cipher for Burroughs’ hallucinatory treatise on the land of the dead. Drawing many artists from the tech and installation crew that keeps the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts functioning smoothly, Kline’s Western Lands is a rare opportunity to see the ferocious talent that operates behind the scenes at any museum. Lucia Thomé’s dimension-bending window, Tim Eads’ wind chamber and Salvatore Cerceo’s and Jim Huebotter’s kinetic sculptures will all make you glad you headed west. (K.R.) 6-10pm.

Six Films That Are Dumb But Beautiful

The Other F Word shows us what happens when rockers trade in the fast life for fatherhood.

By Matt Prigge mprigge@philadelphiaweekly.com

By Sean Burns sburns@philadelphiaweekly.com

Spellbound (1945): Alfred Hitchcock would be nowhere if people held his films to a level of believability. That said, what’s really vexing about this one isn’t its silly plot. It’s that it’s beholden to an inane pop interpretation of Sigmund Freud. Gregory Peck has suppressed memory of a murder and, because Freudian analysis was suddenly in vogue, that means the case is solved via a dream sequence. A dream sequence designed by Salvador Dalí, mind you, as well as a wonderfully ludicrous climax involving a forced perspective and a giant revolving pistol. Call it a draw.

Branded to Kill (1967): It’s not that the films of Seijun Suzuki are stupid; intelligence or even basic coherence simply don’t interest them. For more than 10 years, the Japanese stylist worked steadily for Nikkatsu studios. The one stipulation: He could do whatever he wanted, as long as he wasn’t too weird. But he was bored with the dumb scripts— usually yakuza boilerplate—so he overcompensated by becoming more and more experimental. Finally, after Branded to Kill—essentially an avant-garde work—he was fired for making “movies that make no sense and no money.”

Elvira Madigan (1967): Bo Wiederberg was a film critic who sought to prove there was more to Swedish cinema than Ingmar Bergman. Like, say, feature-length perfume ads. Luxurious slow-mo and a Mozart’s piece now known as “the Elvira Madigan suite” are in service of what Roger Ebert coined “The Idiot Plot.” serials were a triumph of production design that inspired, among others, Star Wars. The Dino De Laurentiis version isn’t quite so inspirational (at last not yet), but the stunning visuals are in direct proportion to the imbecility of the script. And you’ve never seen so much red.

Snake Eyes (1998): Brian De Palma will direct a movie just to handle one sequence. Here, it’s a hellzapoppin’ 15-minute tracking shot opener. After that ...

We watch Lindberg wearily packing up hair dye for his goatee, hand sanitizer and antacids, making sure the kids finish their homework before it’s time for American Idol. So much for that rock ’n’ roll lifestyle.

When I worked at a Greenwich Village video store back in the ’90s, I remember having my mind blown by the sight of Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon pushing a stroller through the kiddie movie section.

New Releases Arthur Christmas Grade: BReview by Matt Prigge

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY November 30 - December 6, 2011

An Aardman animation written and directed by people who’ve collaborated with Steve Coogan, Sacha Baron Cohen and Chris Morris should probably be a lot better. But it’ll do. A slender, inoffensive and mildly amusing trifle that files some familiar riffs on Xmas lore, Arthur Christmas posits that Santas rotate, with one passing the torch of porcine gift-giver to their spawn. As such, the North Pole is now stacked with three bickering generations.

The current S.C. (voiced by Jim Broadbent) goes about his annual business aided by eldest son Steve (Hugh Laurie), a high-tech Type-A-type who’s mechanized the production into a Mission: Impossible-style army of fleet elves diving into houses on wires and getting out without waking the dog. While Steve has equipped the Claus outfit for the modern age, it’s really his warmhearted, mildly foolish younger brother Arthur (James McAvoy) who has contracted the holiday spirit gene. When a minor glitch results in one little girl missing her prezzie, Arthur—along with crotchedy, not-giving-a-shit gramps (Bill Nighy) and an eyebrow-ring-rocking wrapping elf (Ashley Jensen)—decide to remedy the matter the old fashioned way: by dusting off the reindeer.

What results has its moments of wily inspiration: The obvious peak finds the Serengeti inadvertently doused in reindeer magic dust, wreaking a sea of flying jungle animals. And though the film goes light on the saccharine—the film’s goriest moment is the Justin Bieber video sadistically sewn on before the credits—it doesn’t qualify as any more than a good-humored time waster, with jokes that work largely due to the presence of British accents. Here’s a film that can’t even give an ex-Python something noticeable to do.

Arthur Christmas is pleasant, funny even, but one expects more than “pleasant, funny even” from talent who’ve collectively had a hand, at least, in the Wallace and Gromit series, I’m Alan Partridge, Borat, Bruno, Brass Eye, Jam and The League of Gentlemen, to say nothing of the various CVs of the storied voice cast. Not even the Aardman animation registers as beyond serviceable. One assumes the company was merely storing up energy for their forthcoming pirate opus, and maybe a couple more Wallace and Gromit entries. n

Kinyarwanda

in theaters december 9 www.newyearseve-movie.com

Grade: BReview by Matt Prigge

• 28

With its language-related title and collection of seemingly disparate sections that slowly merge into one larger story, Kinyarwanda—its name taken from the official dialect of Rwanda—could be compared to Babel. But that wouldn’t be nice. Nor would it be accurate. Until it takes on a more concrete shape in the final couple reels, this, the latest docudrama on the 1994 slaughter of some 100 million Tutsis by Hutu militia, boasts a winningly fragmented structure. It’s less Babel than 32 Short Films About Glenn Gould, complete with a brief animated interlude; think of it as 32 Short Films About the Rwandan Genocide.

We’re first introduced to two young lovers: half-Tutsi Jeanne Zaninka Hadidja) and her Hutu boyfriend Patrique (Marc Gwamaka). Before this Romeo and Juliet in Rwanda narrative has a chance to play out, writer-director Alrick Brown cuts to black, opening back up in a reeducation camp years after the catastrophe. As Kinyarwanda leaps around its timeline, we will meet a hunted Christian priest (Mazimpaka Kennedy), a female lieutenant (Cassandra Freeman) trying to do her part to stop the genocide and a young child (Hassan Kabera) who unwittingly aids the enemy by assuming that when they speak of “cockroaches” they mean actual cockroaches.

As with most unspeakable atrocities, filmmakers tend to cover the Rwandan Genocide by compartmentalizing it, whittling down its 100 days of unspeakable acts to one noble person’s perspective.

Ultimately Kinyarwanda does nearly the same thing; we eventually learn the sections we’ve been watching form one major, randomly chosen story. The closer Kinyarwanda comes to coherence, the smaller and less mysterious it becomes, complete with lessons on tolerance that could stand more fleshing out. At its best, which is most of the time, it conveys loads: how a nation of multiple major religions comes together amidst tragedy, how two ethnicities were brought to a head by a bizarre history involving Belgian imperialists, and what one’s life is like in a land that, to all appearances, is imploding. “Why don’t we go to the Hotel Rwanda—it’s safe there,” someone suggests at one point. Watching the film Hotel Rwanda is safer, too, filled with the easy comforts Kinyarwanda almost entirely, heroically, avoids. n

Kill ’Em All The long-time-coming documentary about KARP is coming to town.

By Brian McManus

bmcmanus@philadelphiaweekly.com

KARP: (from left to right) Scott, Chris and Jared.

Bar this Saturday.

“At this point I’ve talked to KARP fans all over the world and am constantly shocked by the sheer girth of their fan base ... in countries where they never toured,” Badgley says from the road. “I think this is because their records are excellent, and part of what makes them excellent—beyond the quality of the songwriting and performance—is that the emotional qualities that were palpable in their live shows are in the records. People, no matter where they are, get that, and the appreciation of the band just grows.”

The work Badgley put in on the doc over the years certainly shows. The film vividly captures the band’s brief mid-90s rise and fall through home videos and photos of early KARP tours and performances, rare live-on-air radio interviews with the band, and interviews about the guys. It also offers a snapshot of the Olympia-turned-Punk-Mecca scene they came up in with punk DIY royalty like Bikini Kill’s Kathleen Hanna and K Records head honch Calvin Johnson, who tells a funny and touching story about the three high-school boys who proposed he put out their first record. (He did, and two more after that for good measure.)

Johnson even whips out a filmstrip of KARP’s first live performance. It’s striking. They were so young. Just three nerds who decided to become World Champions of Rock after, bored in class one day, Chris passed Jared a note, telling him they should start a band.

“I think each band is a unique combination of the members it is comprised of and that the sound of the band is the sum of those entities reacting. I think that KARP is a really great example of this,” says Badgley. “There’s a line on the bottom of the back of the DVD that says, ‘Kill All Redneck Pricks is the biography of a friendship ... because ultimately the sound a band makes is the sound of their friendship.’”

Or, put another way, from a YouTube comment under KARP’s “Bacon Industry”: “holy fucking balls this is insane.

It’s like I just realized I had ears for the first time in my life.” n

The headliner s Little Women, a skronky quartet from N.Y.C. that makes jagged and brutal, but alarmThe Extremist ingly sophisticated, post-fire-jazz music in the spirit of Archie Shepp and Black Flag.

Little Women Split Red, a composition-centric West Philly punk outfit named after a Minutemen song, is debuting their new frontman tonight, Justin Duerr from Northern Liberties. You may also know him as the dude from the movie Resurrect Dead: The Mystery Of The Toynbee Tiles. Philly’s Many Arms is a prog/jazz/noise/rock/improv trio that believes in life on Mars and traverses alien sonic domains. Next year, Arms drops an LP on John Zorn’s Tzadik label. Finally, Philly trio Banned Books open the evening with gritty, noisy, trashy, overdriven lo-fi pop. Whew! (Elliott Sharp) Thurs., Dec. 1, 8pm. $6.

50 Words For Snow (RCA) Sounds Like: A stunning seven-song,

65-minute set of Winter “hymns” that are improvisational, jazzy, hauntingly beautiful, and kill popular ideals re: seasonal LPs. Free Association: After the disastrous Director’s Cut, she redeems herself here x 10.

For Fans Of: Tori Amos + Joni Mitchell, Elton John, thematic creativity done well.

Mary J. Blige

My Life II... The Journey Continues (Geffen) Sounds Like: Supposedly a revisit-

•

ing of her 1994 sophomore smash, but Diddy’s not involved, her sound’s evolved dramatically and she relies on big0name guests.

Free Association: “25/8”’s not a great single, but the Nas and Busta spots are solid.

For Fans Of: Faith + Alicia Keys, Brook Lynn x Chaka Khan.

Kill All Redneck Pricks. Better known as KARP: A Melvinsobsessed, heavy-as-uranium trio—Jared Warren, Scott Jernigan and Chris Smith—from Tumwater, Wash., who met early in life and formed a band in high school to insulate themselves from the ubiquitous jocks and hicks of their tiny logging town just outside Olympia.

It is, naturally, a YouTube comment that sums them up best: “best underated [sic] HEAVY AS A FUCKING METORITE ON YOUR BALLSACK band in history.”

The comment, under the song “Get No Toys (When You Pay the Money),” exhibits the type of enthusiasm about KARP that filmmaker William Badgley has come to hear with much frequency of late. He just spent four and a half years of what he describes as “monk-like solitude” working tirelessly on a documentary about the band, the appropriately titled Kill All Redneck Pricks: A Documentary Film About A Band Called KARP. Over the last few months, he’s been screening his film all over the U.S. and Europe, eight different countries and three different languages in all. He brings the film to Little

By Dan Savage mail@savagelove.net

I’m a 21-year-old woman from Canada who sleeps with other women. Two questions for you: 1. My LGBT friends and I disagree about what we girls who sleep with girls exclusively should call ourselves. Everyone else prefers “lesbian” and bitches at me for hating that word. Can’t I call myself gay?

2. I am a really kinky person: I’ve been very sexually active and into BDSM since I was 16. I have a large toy collection and many of the toys are dildos and anal plugs. I like anal a lot, but the thought of vaginal just doesn’t interest me, so I’ve never gone there. I’ve read about how breaking the hymen can hurt and—despite the fact that I enjoy being flogged and scratched—that scares me a little. Should I get over it and go to town or stick with everything else that works for me?

Never heard of you until a year ago.

I’m into “ball busting”—getting slapped or kicked in the nuts—but my wife was never willing. I did something stupid and saw an escort, just to get my balls busted (no sex), and my wife found out.

She was talking about divorce when she told her best friend what was going on. Her friend told her to read your archives first.

You probably don’t hear this from conservative Christian Republicans in red states very often, but my sense of honor requires it of me: Thank you for saving my marriage. This “GGG” concept of yours transformed our marriage—and we are happier than ever. It isn’t lost on me that I have a gay man to thank for keeping us from becoming another sad divorce statistic.

Let’s revisit my original definition of GGG: “GGG stands for good, giving, and game, which is what we should all strive to be for our sex partners. Think good in bed, giving equal time and equal pleasure, and game for anything— within reason.”

Some kinksters skip past the “within reason” part of the definition when they’re discussing kinks with vanilla partners. They shouldn’t.

Extreme bondage or SM, shit and puke, emotionally tricky humiliation play, demanding that your partner have sex with other people because it turns you on (asking your partner to

At two years, your boyfriend is getting vaginal intercourse four times a week, MBIIH, along with handjobs, blowjobs and you standing there naked whenever he likes? Plus a cheerful OK to watch porn and jerk it whenever he feels the need? You’re not trying to be GGG, MBIIH, you are GGG. Your boyfriend doesn’t realize how good he’s got it. He isn’t lacking for sex; what he lacks is perspective. He clearly doesn’t understand or appreciate what it’s like to be on the receiving end of all that dick. Saying something like this might help him understand: “You know I love you, honey, and you know I love having sex with you. But if your hole got fucked every time we had ‘sex,’ you wouldn’t want to have ‘sex’ more than four times a week, either.” (I’m putting “sex” in quotes here because your boyfriend defines sex as “vaginal intercourse.” I do not.

Oral, handjobs, and visuals-with-a-partner—all of that counts as sex.)

If that doesn’t do the trick, MBIIH, buy your boyfriend a dildo that’s roughly the same size as his dick. Then tell him he can fuck your hole whenever he wants, for as long as he wants—so long as he fucks his own hole first, while you watch, for at least 20 minutes or so. Then he can fuck yours.

That might help him appreciate how good he’s got it.

I was chatting with a guy, and he mentioned that one time this girl accidentally vomited all over him during oral sex. He confessed that this turned him on. I consider myself GGG, but that is not something I’m game for. Does my refusal to do this revoke my GGG card? Or is this so out of the norm that I can refuse without losing my GGG card?

Pleasing Upchucking = Kinky Extremism?

I’m a 20-year-old female living with my 23-yearold boyfriend. We’ve been dating for two years, and our sex life has always been awesome. My boyfriend has a high libido. We have sex probably four times a week and I’m totally happy to give him head, jerk him off or take off my clothes for him any other time he asks. Whenever we sit down together, he’s immediately horny and he gets cranky when I have to say no. Is this a ridiculously high libido? I try to be GGG, and he does the same for me, but I hate feeling guilty about not having sex with him constantly. I’ve started just telling him to masturbate to porn, and he does it willingly but usually whines a little first about how I “never” want to have sex. Totally false! My body just can’t take it every day. What do I do?

1. You can call yourself whatever you like, GGG, and your friends can call themselves whatever they like. They’re entitled to their opinions, however, along with their preferred labels.

Friends should be able to discuss their differing opinions and preferences without bitching and/ or being so thin-skinned that a calm discussion about a sensitive subject is mistaken for bitching.

2. “Tearing the hymen doesn’t always hurt and rarely hurts with any severity,” says Debby Herbenick, sex researcher, vulva puppeteer, and co-author (with Vanessa Schick) of Read My Lips: A Complete Guide to the Vagina and Vulva. “Going slow with a smallish, well-lubricated dildo is a good place to start, or two or three well-lubricated fingers. Doing this while highly aroused sets you up for a better experience.”

But before you explore vaginal penetration, GGG, Herbenick recommends a trip to your nearest female-friendly sex-toy shop.

“If most of your toys have been used in the anus/rectum,” says Herbenick, “it would be wise to get a new vagina toy.”

And if you’re broke?

“Then put a condom over a clean anal toy or clean a nonporous (glass, medical-grade silicone) anal toy before using it in the sensitive vagina,” says Herbenick.

While most women enjoy vaginal penetration, GGG, not all women do. (And most women who enjoy vaginal penetration require additional, focused, and intense stimulation of the clit in order to get off.) If you decide vaginal penetration isn’t for you, that’s also a preference to which you’re entitled.

assume all of the physical risks that go along with that, to say nothing of the emotional risks for a partner who isn’t interested in having sex with other people), etc.—all of that falls under the FTF exclusion, or a “fetish too far,” which you’ll find in the fine print on the back of your GGG card, PUKE.
