Creating new abolitionists

On our article on the abolition efforts of Kenneth Morris: Mr.

Morris and the Frederick Douglass Family Initiatives are a force for freedom of the enslaved persons of today. Their multipronged initiatives are making a difference in lives, moving education toward a true picture of what it meant and means to be an abolitionist.

Border Patrol and Greyhound

On immigration activists’ recent demonstration urging Greyhound to prevent US Border Patrol agents from boarding buses and asking riders for identification:

Buses are public spaces. No warrants needed. Given that we are considered a border city, with only Lake Ontario standing between Rochester and Canada, and Rochester being a hub for re-settlement activities, these checks are well within the law, from what I have read.

Greyhound should heed the law and know that the silent majority support the rule of law in this country.

People are not required to carry their “papers” in this country. Unless we require that, it’s just targeting people who don’t look American, whatever the hell that is.

Yes, I want a Whole Foods (or most any other corporation willing to invest in Rochester), but no – I don’t want it there.

I’m surprised THEY want it there.

When I registered to search for Trevyan Rowe, the meeting rooms at the Al Sigl Center were well stocked with food and drink for the searchers. When the RPD officer was killed, food and drinks were donated for outof-town law enforcement.

LINDA DISTAFANO

What? More lights on Monroe Avenue between I-590 and Clover Street? You have got to be kidding that this is acceptable to a planning board or zoning board or the department of transportation!

Do you all never drive down Monroe Avenue?

BETH CARR

I might be wrong, but I don’t think there is a public demand for a Whole Foods store. Monroe Avenue traffic will be a nightmare unless Brighton and Pittsford officials come up with a plan to bypass the gridlock that already exists during rush hours and weekends at the corner of Monroe Avenue and Clover Street.

Complicating matters: not being allowed to make a left turn on Clover Street from Monroe if you are traveling east. Instead, many cars turn into parking lots past the light and turn around so they can turn right on Clover.

URBAN JOURNAL | BY MARY ANNA TOWLER

Martin Luther King Jr. and our history of racism Fifty years ago this week, the racism that has been part of the lifeblood of this country since its founding claimed the life of Martin Luther King Jr. And as we mark the anniversary of King’s assassination, it’s deeply depressing to re-read books and reports from that period and realize how little progress we’ve made.

Racial segregation has increased, inequality is a national crisis, white nationalists have marched in American cities, and the current president of the United States has openly encouraged racism and violence and mocked everything King stood for.

In 1964, journalist and economist Charles Silberman was warning the country where our racism was taking us. “Solving the problem of race,” he wrote in “Crisis in Black and White,” “is not only the most urgent piece of public business facing the United States today; it is also the most difficult.”

“Nothing less than a radical reconstruction of American society is required,” Silberman wrote, “if the Negro is to be able to take his rightful place in American life.”

Four years later – just over a month before King’s death – the Kerner Commission, appointed by President Lyndon Johnson to study the causes of racial unrest in US cities, issued its own warning.

“Our nation,” the commission said, “is moving toward two societies, one black, one white – separate and unequal.”

The commission’s conclusion from its months of study was simple, and it was damning: “Discrimination and segregation have long permeated much of American life; they now threaten the future of every American.”

“Segregation and poverty have created in the racial ghetto a destructive environment totally unknown to most white Americans,” the commission said. “What white Americans have never fully understood but what the Negro can never forget – is that white society is deeply implicated in the ghetto. White institutions created it, white institutions maintain it, and white society condones it.”

“This deepening racial division is not inevitable,” the commission said.

“The movement apart can be reversed.

Choice is still possible. Our principal task is to define that choice and to press for a national resolution.”

“To pursue our present course will involve the continuing polarization of the American community and, ultimately, the destruction of basic democratic values,” the commission said. “The alternative is not blind repression or capitulation to lawlessness. It is the realization of common opportunities for all within a single society.

This alternative will require a commitment to national action – compassionate, massive

Fifty years after King’s death, the United States has a president who has encouraged racism and mocked everything King stood for.” and sustained, backed by the resources of the most powerful and the richest nation on this earth. From every American it will require new attitudes, new understanding, and, above all, new will.”

There have been no new attitudes, though; no new understanding, certainly no new will.

Observing what is happening today, it seems incomprehensible that we moved so far toward King’s dream that we elected Barack Obama president and then chose Donald Trump as his successor.

And yet Donald Trump didn’t create the racism that is driving many of his policies, exciting his supporters, and leads Congressional leaders and corporate donors to excuse his massive failings. Donald Trump is simply yet another manifestation of the country’s persistent racism.

(Slavery, Alexis de Tocqueville had concluded during his visit to the United States in the early 1800’s, “recedes, but the prejudice to which it has given birth is immovable.”)

Despite the enormous forces pushing against him, Martin Luther King Jr. continued to have faith in America, apparently. “I may not get there with you,” he said in the speech he gave the day before he died, “but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land.”

Fifty years later, the country seems no closer to fulfilling that dream than we were on April 4, 1968. And if King were alive today, it doesn’t seem likely that his life would be any less at risk. rochestercitynewspaper.com

STATE | BY JEREMY MOULE

New state budget: the ins and outs State lawmakers passed another on-time budget, but the plan dropped some of Governor Andrew Cuomo’s key proposals, including plans for early voting and reform of New York’s cash bail system.

The $168.3 billion budget does contain provisions meant to counteract major changes in the federal tax law, including the new $10,000 limit on property tax deductions, which would have hit wealthier New York homeowners. State budget provisions include the creation of a somewhat convoluted system that employers can opt in to. The system combines a fully-deductible payroll tax for the businesses and a corresponding income tax credit for their employees, according to a press release from the governor’s office.

The budget also contains an increase in school aid, though the $1 billion figure that Cuomo has touted is larger than the actual $859 million bump, according to reports. The Alliance for Quality Education said the amount of the increase is inadequate.

Lawmakers also approved new sexual harassment laws as part of the budget. They include bans on employer-mandated arbitration and on non-disclosure agreements in settlements unless that’s what the victim wants.

The budget provides for an extension of the state’s historic tax credit, which helps developers finance the restoration and preservation of older buildings. The credit has played an important role in the rejuvenation of the downtowns of New York cities, including Rochester and Buffalo.

The adopted budget also includes a new fee on opioid makers and distributors. Proceeds from the charge will be used to fight the opioid epidemic, according to a press release from the governor’s office.

Separate from the budget, lawmakers also passed legislation prohibiting people convicted of certain domestic violence-related crimes from owning handguns or long guns. State law already prohibits people convicted of felonies from owning and possessing guns, and lawmakers previously placed the same restrictions on people convicted of certain misdemeanors in domestic violence cases. The new law adds several other misdemeanors to that list, which now covers charges ranging from assault to trespassing.

Housing rights advocates held a rally Monday at 967 Chili Avenue to protest the poor conditions of the apartment building.

HOUSING | BY JAKE CLAPP

Problem buildings face city scrutiny Peter Hungerford is starting to become a well-known name to people who follow housing issues in Rochester. Hungerford owns several buildings where tenants say that they have been living in bad, unaddressed conditions, like sewage backing up in their apartments, mold, and electrical problems.

Last month, tenants at 447 Thurston Road started a rent strike. And on Monday, renters at 967 Chili Avenue, some of whom are joining the rent strike, held a small rally to highlight their own building’s problems, including a

ceiling falling apart in the building’s entrance way, reports of infestation, and broken windows. The 15unit building currently has 15 outstanding code violations.

Those actions have gotten the City of Rochester’s attention. The city has threatened to take five of Hungerford’s buildings into receivership if past-due violations aren’t addressed. Through receivership, the city or a third party would take control of the building, collect rent from tenants, and get repairs made in the building. Hungerford was given an April 1 deadline.

“What we’ve seen is that when tenants have gone public in other buildings, the city has responded,” said Ryan Acuff, an organizer with the City-Wide Tenant Union. “And through that, the landlord is taking certain things more seriously.”

Acuff said the city should go further and use the power of criminal prosecution to protect tenants across Rochester from slumlords and absentee landlords.

(Hungerford lives in Staten Island.)

The Rochester city code should be enforced, Acuff said, but the city “has been asleep at the wheel.”

The Planning Commission approved Rochester Management’s latest plan for senior apartments within Cobbs Hill Park. But the project continues to face opposition from some neighborhood groups, environmentalists, and residents. It still has to get approval from City Council and the mayor.

DEVELOPMENT | BY TIM LOUIS MACALUSO

New Cobbs Hill Village plan gets first OK The proposal for new apartment buildings on land within Cobbs Hill Park took a step forward Monday when the City Planning Commission approved Rochester Management’s revised plans for the project. The vote was 4-2.

The project continues to face bitter opposition, however, and it still needs approval by City Council and Mayor Lovely Warren.

The non-profit owns and operates Cobbs Hill Village, a group of apartment buildings for low-income seniors. Arguing that the existing apartments are outdated and that repairing them would be too costly, Rochester Management began working several years ago on plans for a new development on the site. But it has faced opposition from a vocal coalition of neighborhood groups, environmentalists, and even some of its tenants, who oppose the project.

In the new plan, the number of units is increased from 98 to 104 in six buildings, rather than the previous five. There would be 16 studios, 56 one-bedroom apartments, four onebedroom townhouses, eight twobedroom apartments, and 20 twobedroom townhouses.

Two larger buildings would face Norris Drive and four smaller ones would be at the back of the site, near the edge of the park. The buildings have been staggered and given flat roofs, lowering the building height. Multiple walkways were added from the two main buildings to Norris Drive to give the complex a more residential appearance, and walkways were added leading to the park’s walking trails.

The parking area was redesigned to more resemble a residential street between the buildings, Hill said, and benches, bike racks, and additional trees were added.

To address concerns about rates in the new development, Rochester Management CEO Peggy Hill said all tenants have received new riders to their leases, locking in their rents. And although when tenants move out, the rent in most units can be increased, Rochester Management has committed to leaving 20 units – 16 studios and four-one bedrooms – at their current low rates for the next 40 years, even after tenants move out. For instance, the studios would remain at $332, an extremely low rate for the area.

The revisions are a response to concerns raised by Planning Commission members in January, mostly around building design

and placement. For instance, buildings in the earlier design were all the same height, and some Commission members said that created a wall on Norris Drive. They also wanted building materials that were more natural looking.

The commission had also recommended that the buildings closest to Norris Drive should face the street rather than internally toward a parking lot.

They wanted the buildings re-positioned to provide views between them, and they wanted more sidewalks and a better sense of connectivity around the site and with

the park and Norris Drive. They didn’t want air-conditioning condenser units visible from the front or side of the units, and they wanted more amenities that complement the site’s proximity to the park, such bike racks and benches.

“We really tried to address the issues that the commission had with the earlier plan,” said Peggy Hill, in an interview prior to Monday’s presentation. Hill, Rochester Management’s president and CEO, presented a plan that significantly departs from the earlier version.

POLITICS | BY JEREMY MOULE

Democrats line up to succeed Louise Slaughter there are some issues and areas he wants to focus on: pay equality, poverty rates and their impact on education, and opportunities for jobs and entrepreneurship.

And he’s “consistently been an advocate for the voiceless” on City Council, he said.

He developed the Ban the Box legislation passed by Council, which prevents employers from asking about prior convictions on job applications. He also introduced legislation prohibiting income discrimination in housing.

Democrats have the enrollment advantage

Assembly Majority Leader Joe Morelle, Brighton Town Board member Robin Reynolds Wilt, and City Councilmember Adam McFadden.

CENTER PHOTO BY RENÉE HEININGER, OTHERS FILE PHOTOS

County Democrats knew that someday, they’d have to do the unthinkable: find someone to run in Louise Slaughter’s place. But any transition was never going to be clean.

Slaughter herself never gave much thought to a successor. She famously resisted the notion of preparing anyone to take over her seat, so when Slaughter died last month after a distinguished 16 terms in Congress, she left a vacuum. And politics, like nature, abhors a vacuum.

Enter State Assembly Majority Leader Joe Morelle, Brighton Town Board member Robin Reynolds Wilt, and Rochester City Council Member Adam McFadden. All three officially launched campaigns for the seat last week, setting up a potential June 26 primary.

Morelle and Wilt each framed their announcements around Slaughter, saying they’re the person to carry on her progressive legacy on issues such as women’s rights, health care, scientific research, voting rights, and equality. McFadden centered his message around choice.

“I think that all of us bring something different to the table, and I think the public deserves a chance to hear that and make a decision based on that,” he said during an interview ahead of his announcement Friday.

“It’ll make the party much stronger than us just sitting back and allowing someone to walk in. We have to energize our base, and you energize the base by having open and honest discussion with choice.”

Morelle clearly has the county Democratic Party establishment behind him. Brighton Supervisor Bill Moehle and Irondequoit Supervisor David Seeley attended his announcement to show support, as did some members of each town’s board.

6 CITY

APRIL 4 - 10, 2018

Assembly member Harry Bronson and County Clerk Adam Bello stood with Morelle at the podium, and so did Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren. Morelle has represented this community well and brought home millions of dollars for it, Warren said, and he’ll be able to “hit the ground running” in Congress. She called for the party to unite behind him.

“Everyone in this room knows that Joe Morelle and I have had our political disagreements,” Warren said. But, she added, they’re standing “united for a common cause”: making sure that Democrats keep Slaughter’s seat.

Warren’s backing is no small matter.

Monroe County’s Democratic Party is, at times, a fractured organization. And in the simplified overview often relayed by party activists and insiders, two camps have been jostling for control and influence. Warren and her allies make up one side, Morelle and his allies the other.

But the two sides seem to be at détente.

McFadden, a frequent ally of the mayor’s, said he’s running not because he dislikes any of the other candidates or sees them as enemies but, he reiterated, to encourage discussion and choice.

Former television news reporter Rachel Barnhart, who previously ran unsuccessfully for Assembly and Rochester mayor, is also considering a run, as is city school board President Van White. Morelle, Wilt, McFadden, White, and Barnhart are all collecting signatures for petitions, which they have to submit to the county or state Board of Elections by April 12.

The county Republican and Conservative parties are backing Dr. Jim Maxwell, a neurosurgeon who lives in East Rochester.

At his announcement, Morelle and the

speakers supporting him said he’ll advocate for action on gun violence, universal health care, women’s rights, voting rights, and several other issues that are important to Democrats and that Slaughter prioritized.

Bronson talked about Morelle’s steadfast support for crucial LGBTQ antidiscrimination legislation as well as his support of the labor community.

“Joe Morelle is one of the good guys,” Bronson said.

Wilt promises a grassroots campaign rooted in progressivism. She says she’s concerned about many of the same issues as Morelle but says he isn’t strong enough on health care. He committed to fighting for universal health care, but Wilt advocates for a single-payer system. They aren’t the same thing.

Under universal health care, the government ensures that all people have access to necessary health care, regardless of their ability to pay for it. Such a system can be built around private insurance companies; Obamacare was a big step toward universal health care. Single-payer is a kind of universal health care; medical care is delivered through private providers but the government covers all medically necessary services.

Morelle hasn’t signed on to sponsor an Assembly bill that would establish single-payer health care in New York, and he’s previously voted against the New York Health Act, which also would have created a statewide singlepayer health care system, say Wilt and Ravi Mangla, co-director of ROCitizen.

McFadden has served on City Council since 2003. He said his platform should come from the people he’d represent, though

in the 25th Congressional District, so on paper they should be able to win, making the potential primary a crucial contest. A victory in the general election is not guaranteed, however. Democrats have an enrollment advantage county-wide, but they haven’t won the county executive’s seat since 1987. Real world variables, such as voter turnout, will have a decisive influence in the election.

Both Morelle and Warren have had historically strong get-out-the vote operations, and by teaming up they could be formidable.

Money will matter, too. Congressional campaigns are expensive to begin with, and this year is a high-stakes midterm year.

Republicans and Democrats will wage all-out-war for control of the House, and spending will be aggressive, especially in races where there’s an open seat.

Morelle has the advantage when it comes to money. He’s built a network of donors that he’ll be able to tap into to help fund his run, he said.

But what Morelle sees as an advantage, Wilt sees as a problem. She and her supporters point out that Morelle receives a lot of money from corporation and industry political action committees, and they disapprove. (For the record, Slaughter accepted donations from corporations, including several defense contractors.)

Wilt envisions a campaign funded by lots of small donations, not large contributions from corporations and wealthier donors.

And she believes that she’d be able to get the money and people power necessary to run an effective campaign.

The developing 25th Congressional District primary is about filling a void, but it’s also about the soul of a party. And that’s going to mean asking how the party balances its core ideals, its differing philosophies, and the reality that under the current system, big elections require massive resources.

For Monroe County Democrats, the hard part will be airing these questions while preserving the party’s fragile peace.

East Avenue goes pop! [ CHOW HOUND ] BY KATIE LIBBY

Colin Delaney is finding it hard to describe his new venture, PopRoc (337 East Avenue). “There’s nothing like it,” he says.

“We have to stop using the words ‘coffee shop’ because it’s not, we have to stop using the words ‘comic book shop’ because it’s not that either. Even if you combine the two, it’s just gonna be so much more than we even know.”

Delaney and business partner Jason Hilton (Nick and Liz Andolina are also partners) want to create a space that’s going to veer away from the stereotype of East Avenue — an area typically associated with bar culture. They want to create an environment that’s not only family-friendly, but appeals to twenty-somethings who want an alternative to going out and getting schnockered.

PopRoc will hold its grand opening on Friday, April 6, and it does have a bar — but it’s a coffee and cereal bar. More than twenty different varieties of cereal will be offered, in addition to toppings like fresh fruit, caramel, and chocolate.

“We were just going to do Saturday mornings with cereal,” Delaney says. “The 8 CITY

more we thought about it, we thought nobody does cereal, we should do cereal all the time. We can play around with it, have different toppings, mix and match cereals, half-and-half cereals, it’s another fun thing we can have.”

Delaney and Hilton are all about that caffeine life. They’ve partnered with local roasters Fifth Frame and CanalTown to offer original flavored coffees. They will also be serving Death Wish coffee, which contains the highest amount of caffeine allowed in a cup of joe.

If that doesn’t get your heart pumping faster, Hilton says they’re also going to carry “every energy drink we can get our hands on locally,” including Monster, Red Bull, and Mountain Dew. “We’re also going to have some mocktinis done with different flavors and energy drinks,” he adds.

What exactly do you do with all that caffeine pumping through your bloodstream? In Delaney’s case, he’s wrestled professionally for the past fifteen years. “I started when I was very young and got to the WWE when I was twenty-one,” he says.

Delaney met Hilton at Kayfabe Dojo, the wrestling school for Upstate Pro Wrestling. Delaney still wrestles

professionally, which occasionally takes him away from the business. The two also worked together at Hilton’s internet marketing firm, Hilton Advisory. Hilton had an office in High Falls for his business, but since all client relations were done outside of the office, the space became a gallery for his extensive collection of toys — specifically Transformers and Funko Pop! figurines.

“There was this secret thing inside of me, when I saw people walking by the office, that they could come in and be like, ‘Look how cool that is!’” Hilton says.

“Now we’re offering a place where people can do that, enjoy the stuff that we have, I want people to be able to enjoy the stuff as much as I do.”

Those figurines, along with others, will serve as décor for the space, and some items will be for sale. A shelf filled with comic books lines one of the walls, and PopRoc will offer a comic discovery program. Some comics will be available to read for free while others will be accessibly only to those enrolled in the program.

Hilton says the program fee will be about $20 per month, and that there will be twenty different titles you can read the day they come out. “Titles are typically $4 to

$5 a piece, so you’re looking at about a $350 value for around $20 a month,” he says.

The comics will only be available for a few months, after which they’ll be donated to Golisano Children’s Hospital or the The Strong Museum of Play.

The main theme that seems to characterize PopRoc is inclusiveness. “We want people to sit down, have a drink, watch what’s on TV, talk with people that enjoy the same things we do and things that they do,” Delaney says.

“We don’t want anyone to feel that they are not welcome,” Hilton adds. “We’re gonna try to figure out a way where everyone can feel included.”

Hilton and Delaney say they want PopRoc to be the Rochester pop culture center, and they’re prepared for whatever new phenomenon that comes out — whatever is going to be the next “Stranger Things.”

“It’s pop culture,” Delaney says. “It’s what we do.”

PopRoc (337 East Avenue) will be open Monday through Sunday from 8 a.m. to 9 or 10 p.m.

[ ART FEATURE ] BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

Painting new portraits of m ental illness and HIV

There’s a semi-secret, makeshift artist’s studio tucked away in a sunny office beyond the labyrinth of labs and offices of the University of Rochester’s Medical Center. There, Charmaine Wheatley has set up camp since January 2017, when she came to Rochester to paint two extensive series of portraits of individuals from two stigmatized communities: people living with mental illness, and people living with HIV. Her residency concludes April 30, and will culminate with a traveling exhibition.

Wheatley describes her project, “Humanizing is Destigmatizing,” as an artistic endeavor to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and HIV. Toward that end, she’s created scores of small watercolor and ink portraits of people in both communities, each about 7 inches tall by 4 inches wide, with the person surrounded by hand-written phrases and quotes that Wheatley pulled from conversation while sketching each subject.

By combining the portraits and the words, she’s trying to paint a fuller, more intimate picture of the diverse set of stories — the struggles and triumphs alike.

There’s a wealth of content in the jumbled cloud of words that surrounds each figure, and much like getting to know a person, there’s something new to learn each time you revisit the image.

The subjects in the portraits are facing forward, sometimes caught in mid-speech.

Despite the difficult subject matter, there’s an overall tone of dignity, optimism, and a bright vitality in each of them. And the diversity shown in both of Wheatley’s series promotes the understanding that these issues can impact anyone; her subjects are someone any of us know.

Wheatley’s Med Center studio serves mostly as a planning and portrait-finishing space, because she does the bulk of her work out in the field, sitting knee-to-knee with her subjects while she talks with them, learning their stories and studying their features. The tables in her studio are strewn with paintings she has yet to complete.

Some faces are vague, color-blocked forms that she’ll resolve into identifiable features, and clusters of penciled phrases will be pushed and pulled to gain greater prominence or subtlety.

“Poor Kate doesn’t have a nose yet,” she says while lifting one of the unfished works. “I take snapshots, too, toward the end of the session, and work from those later. But I try to focus on the way you look at first, and as we become more comfortable with each other, I find that you’ll open up and say things, once you realize I’m not here to judge and I think everything that you are is fantastic.” rochestercitynewspaper.com

A dry-erase board facing the large windows is filled with names — each receives a check mark when the portrait is complete — lovingly spelled out in elegant script.

Wheatley is a painter and performance artist originally from Nova Scotia. When she moved to New York City more than two decades ago, her art evolved drastically.

“Back in Nova Scotia, it’s quiet,” she says. “I can have like eight or 10 hours of uninterrupted time to paint. And that’s great for doing oil painting, but then I moved to New York, and eight or 10 hours of uninterrupted time is not possible, so I evolved my working method.”

She began taking a party-favor watercolor set on the subway and creating small portraits of people and recording notes on scraps of paper. “I have many boxes full of drawings and notes, because everything is interesting, and it’s overwhelming, so I was trying to nail down as much as possible,” she says.

“I like hanging out, but you know, that looks slack. So if I have these little tangible moments….” she trails off. She keeps the paintings in pocket-sized tin boxes that she can easily slip into her purse. “It’s important to keep it portable” she says.

“It’s a the-world-is-my-studio kind of thing.”

Wheatley’s portrait practice gradually coalesced into different series. In 2016, she took part in two SU-CASA artist residencies (a community arts engagement program through the Brooklyn Arts Council), painting portraits at Polish and Latinx senior centers.

“Some people didn’t speak a lick of English,” she says, “and we figured it out. We had translators, and I would make art with them. I think it was really nice, especially for seniors — I think a lot of seniors can feel invisible. They exist, and 10 CITY APRIL 4 - 10, 2018

they’re important. Every time I’d ask, ‘Have you ever had your portrait done,’ and everybody says, ‘no,’ so there’s this beautiful connection.”

It’s atypical for the Med Center to host an artist in residence. The Rochester-Buffalo project was initiated by Steve Dewhurst, vice dean for research and professor and chair of microbiology and immunology at the University of Rochester’s School of Medicine and Dentistry. Dewhurst is also an art lover, and he became aware of Wheatley’s tiny portraits during a visit to Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, where Wheatley became an artist in residence in 2012.

“I live at the museum,” Wheatley says of the Gardner, which is housed in an old mansion adjacent to the Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

“One time, for the course of a month, I would sit in their living room, and people that were coming to the museum could sign up and sit with me for 30 minutes. That was 104 portraits. And then I did it a second time.”

“They had an exhibit of her work, which I just really liked,” Dewhurst says. “I asked Charmaine if she’d ever done portraits of people living with mental illness. I have personal family interest in that area.”

At the time, Wheatley says, she thought she probably had made some portraits of people with mental illness but hadn’t done a project under that specific umbrella. She kept in touch with Dewhurst via email, and within a few months she expressed an interest in setting up a residency or fellowship in Rochester.

“What I liked about the work is the combination of the images and the narrative content,” Dewhurst says. “They’re not people telling stories, but they’re intimate moments. So you get a sense of the person in a way that you don’t typically get with a portrait.

It’s much richer. And because they’re fragments of conversations, they’re also open-ended.”

The overarching aim of the two projects is battling stigma, which creates fear and shame and alienation, and hinders the real work and progress that can be made. Cumulatively, the portraits reveal a diverse set of experiences, personalities, modes of coping, hopes, and hardships — serving to expand our understanding of the inner life of the people who surround us.

Award-winning filmmaker Don Casper created a documentary on each of Wheatley’s series: “Portraits of Life” about the mental health series and “Don’t Define Me” about the HIV series.

Dewhurst was familiar with some of Casper’s previous work, and reached out to him about possibly doing a film on Wheatley’s mental illness series.

“We talked about creating a small film that would document the whole effort, looking at her process and all that,” Casper says. “For that film, we spent an entire day, filmed her painting a few portraits and sitting down with people who had just had their portraits done. I approached it kind of as a portrait of somebody making portraits.”

“Portraits of Life” was screened at Canada’s 2017 Bluenose-Ability Film Festival, where it won Best Documentary award.

As Wheatley began developing her HIV series, Casper returned to document the process for a new film. A showcase of a selection of the HIV paintings was held on March 15 at Arbor Loft, and portrait

subjects from Buffalo and Rochester attended. Casper screened his film, “Don’t Define Me,” which will be available to a wider Rochester audience on Saturday, April 21, when it receives its world premiere at the Little Theatre during Rochester’s One Take Film Festival.

Wheatley’s subjects hold the viewers’ gaze and communicate the fact that disease is a part, but not the sum, of being human. And through the text, viewers also gain glimpses of progress made and wisdom gained and incorporated into the individual lives.

Importantly, Wheatley wants her subjects to participate in their own portraits. “What you give me during that time that we’re together, I’m trying to get as much of that as possible,” she says. “I’m looking for what makes you you, what’s your unique character.”

When Wheatley speaks, she exudes sincerity and enthusiasm, her eyes wide with wonder. She rarely breaks eye contact and smiles warmly and at times conspiratorially, making it easy to feel relaxed and open in her presence.

But understandably, there have been instances where she had to work more extensively to draw people out of their shells.

One of these subjects was Sabrina, who is included in the paintings of the HIV community.

“After I did her portrait, I met with her three more times to see if there was something I could do to ease her tension,” Wheatley says. “She was fine with her image, her face, and she brought this fantastic blouse. She liked her portrait. But having elements of the dialogue in the portrait: for me that adds richness. You’re not just a pretty face, you’re much more; you’re a struggling human rising above.

“But still, I think we make progress every time that we speak, especially if there’s time in between, because things become more comfortable. She’s had some hard times. And maybe it’s hard to remember or acknowledge that this is a different time that you’re in. You’ve grown and gleaned wisdom from those hard times. You’re not gonna play it the same way. You’re stronger now.”

With another subject, Jazzelle, “we didn’t talk about HIV whatsoever,” Wheatley says. “Sometimes it just doesn’t come up. And then we were having this event, and were putting these huge banners up in the Flaum Atrium — and I realized that her portrait had no HIV content whatsoever.

So I called her, and I added something.”

Wheatley created a second portrait of Jazzelle while Casper was filming his documentary on the project. She says Jazzelle told her that “she didn’t initially discuss her HIV-positive status because, ‘already being trans and black, I feel like nobody’s going to love me. And then add HIV — impossible.’ But what really happened is that she’s more loveable,” Wheatley says. “The more we can accept ourselves — it’s inspiring, and you want to be around that.”

Wheatley’s mental health series was created between January and July of 2017 and includes about 75 portraits of people from the Rochester community living with mental illness as well as those of professionals working in the field.

And sometimes there is some crossover within one portrait, she says.

Wheatley began her current series of portraits of people living with HIV in Rochester and Buffalo in August of 2017. She linked up with individual subjects by working in collaboration with the Rochester Center for AIDS Research and with Evergreen Health in Buffalo. When the project concludes, she estimates, there will be about 114 portraits.

“One thing that’s really nice is you do these portraits of individuals, but then it unfolds into a portrait of a

community,” Wheatley says. “And then you see connections crossing over, which becomes this beautiful weave.”

The mental health community and the HIV community experience different shades of stigmatization, Wheatley says. With HIV there’s still a sense of fear; she’s learned, she adds, that to have HIV is to be an activist, and that there’s a strong sense of family within the HIV communities.

“Within mental health, there’s still so much mystery around it,” she says. “Why do we have such a difficult time sometimes, and other times we feel ok? What are the triggers? It’s more vague, and there’s such a broad spectrum” of illnesses. “At least it seems that way. I’m not a scientist; I’m an artist just making observations.”

One of her subjects said that he told Wheatley things he hasn’t told a psychiatrist in 30 years, Dewhurst says.

Turning to Wheatley, Dewhurst continues: “And that’s the thing: you were saying most people haven’t had their portraits done, but they also haven’t really been listened to, not really. That’s very powerful, that a lot of the people who have sat with you have stayed in touch.”

Wheatley is planning to turn the two series into artist’s books. She’ll make reproductions of each set of paintings and offer them for sale in limited-edition boxed form. And the two finished bodies of work will be exhibited in a tobe-determined location. She envisions touring the work to different cities, accompanied by Casper’s documentaries and context provided by people working the mental health and HIV fields.

“I hope there’s no end,” Wheatley says of her portrait series projects. “I’ve fallen in love all over the place.”

Dude … Dude … first of all, what an absolutely killer guitar tone. Killer. Same goes for the vocals, roaring heavy and relatable, because they’re discernible for a change; rabid, angry, and snarling but discernible.

Holy shit, let me say that this is some of the best metal I’ve heard in a long time.

Rochester heavy quartet Invictra is positively aces, infusing brutal rhythms with fiery panache and restraint, along with a command for melody that would make any self-appointed pop diva envious. But Invictra doesn’t go all the way metal, there’s some heavy and hard rock ‘n’ roll liberally dusted throughout. This should earn the band a following outside the immediate phylum.

The guitars are distorted, of course, but they aren’t so refined into sand and dust that you can’t pick up on the grinding of the gravel and bone. The drums are super-solid and don’t over-cop to the double kick. “The World Game” has me spewing superlatives and telling all my friends. Look out.

Whirlin’ Jack Dervy comes out as if tangled up in blue on the opening of his new CD, “Whirlin’ Jack.” The minimalist production adds to the stab of loneliness that started with the reverb on his voice. Tagged as doom folk, Dervy’s new platter is lyrically foreboding, but not in a threatening way. Rather it’s a form of empathy; he’s on the same boat as the rest of us — the one with the big hole in it.

On “Whirlin’ Jack,” Dervy’s acoustic guitar playing dominates without the typical, perfunctory up and down strokes of those folkies who are too busy wringing their hands between chord changes. Even when the tempo gets an electrified kick in its psychedelic can via an electrified band, the voice still stands out like a fed-up, defrocked preacher at their wits’ end.

When it gets plugged in this way, it takes a nod — or gives one — to garage rock.

But I keep circling back to that acoustic guitar attack in its simple deception as its master keeps with unique sub-rhythms that still leave room for the story, doom-laden as it may be.

Chaos in the quiet Anamon CHECK OUT THE BAND AT FACEBOOK.COM/ANAMONTHEBAND [ INTERVIEW ] BY FRANK DE BLASE

Inside Anamon’s collective head is a beehive of activity and calamity. It’s a lush refrain pasted across a rock ‘n’ roll canvas. It’s got singer-songwriter panache that disguises the chaos brewing between breaths. Anamon is a narcotic lullaby for insomniacs.

At the heart of it all is guitarist-singer Ana Monaco, who sings with the shared truth of her haphazard guitar. The band is forceful and urgent, which only intensifies when they wind it down. There’s chaos in the quiet.

Anamon — Monaco, bassist Benton Sillick, drummer Aaron Mika, and producer

and guitarist Sam Snyder, the band’s newest member — has been prowling the scene for a little over a year. With one album, “Stubborn Comfort,” to its credit and another due sometime in the fall, Anamon has solidified itself with a musical juxtaposition falling somewhere between ragged and sweet.

The band, minus Snyder, stopped into CITY to discuss chaos, maintaining its edge, and feeling alone. An edited transcript follows.

CITY: How did Anamon come to be?

Ana Monaco: I had a bunch of songs that I’d

written over a bunch of years. I was asked to play a solo show, but I figured it would be better as a full band. So I asked Benton and Aaron and it came together quite nicely. So we decided to keep rockin’.

we’re not capable of.

Monaco: We’re not refined people.

Describe an ideal Anamon show.

Monaco: The stage has to be the right

height. The vibe’s got to be right.

Who is that up to?

Monaco: All of us — as long as nobody gets

hurt. People don’t really move to us.

Sillick: Yet. The music is very inviting.

Mika: I like to see a nice, happy, attentive

audience. Everybody’s paying the cover charge …

Sillick: It’s kind of a joke. We named a song after it, “Exactly What I Like.” It’s what we run our band on: Is this exactly what I like? We’ll be playing a song on stage and I’ll think this is exactly what I like, this is what I want to listen to.

What’s something you want to do but haven’t done yet?

Mika: Play on a late-night TV show.

Monaco: That would be cool.

FOLK | KIRSTEN MAXWELL

Long Island singer-songwriter Kirsten Maxwell has an ariose voice, with a ringing vibrato like that of a songbird swooping down to rest atop a bright, acoustic guitar. Her conversational lyrics create a natural segue into memorable choruses that audiences can sing along to, emulating a late-1990’s female singer-songwriter vibe like that of Jewel and Paula Cole. There is a nostalgic feeling of the fleeting passage of time, reminiscing about the past while embracing the ever-changing, forward motion of life. After graduating college in 2014, Maxwell performed in a variety of songwriting competitions and festivtals, and independently released her debut album, “Crimson,” in April 2015. This is music perfect for cruising in your car on a crisp, spring morning, with the windows cracked and tulips budding all around you.

Kirsten Maxwell performs Saturday, April 7, at Café Veritas at First Unitarian Church, 220 South Winton Road. 7:30 p.m. $18 general; $10 students; Free for kids under 12. cafeveritas.org; kirstenmaxwell.com.

BLUES | JOE BEARD

Rochester’s undisputed heavyweight champion of the blues, Joe Beard, has had the blues for 80 years now. Born in Mississippi, Beard moved to sweet home Rochester in 1956 when today’s bluesmen were still in wet pants. Beard has set the blues bar in blues bars high enough to consider Rochester a blue town. Next Wednesday, he’ll perform an intimate show at Downstairs Cabaret, and later this month (Sunday, April 29), Beard will play a birthday show in his honor at Photo City Improv (543 Atlantic Avenue), thrown by blues guitarist extraordinaire Steve Grills and featuring special guest John Ellison of the legendary Soul Brother Six. Joe Beard and Bill Downen play as part of the Rochester Folkus series on Wednesday, April 11, at the Downstairs Cabaret, 20 Windsor Street. 7 p.m. $10. downstairscabaret. com; facebook.com/joebeardblues.

Jahmal B. Golden reads from their book of poetry, “Yves, Ide, Solstice.” PHOTOS BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

Art and allyship “At the Crossroads: Activating the Intersection of Art and Justice” REVIEWED MARCH 23 NEXT EVENT APRIL 14 FACEBOOK.COM/ARTANDJUSTICEROC [ REVIEW ] BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

The most recent iteration of 21st Century Arts’ At the Crossroads: Activating the Intersection of Art and Justice series took place Friday, March 23, with “Cage-free and Nonconforming,” an event featuring artwork and a poetry reading by trans femme artist of color Jahmal B. Golden. Following the format of the other events produced by the multidisciplinary and collaborative initiative, Golden’s art and reading was accompanied by a screening of two short videos and a Long Table Conversation.

This event was a homecoming for Golden — originally from Rochester, they were recently based in New York City. Their work has been exhibited at Czech Center and AC Institute in NYC, Mother Culture Gallery in LA, and Art Space in Mexico. Golden is currently an artist in residence at the RAW center for Art, Knowledge, and Society in Dakar, Senegal, and they have been accepted to the MFA program at Bard College.

The first of the event’s two screenings was “Young & Gay: Jamaica’s Gully Queens,” a 30-minute piece by VICE News that spotlights the brutal reality of a group of LGBTQ youth living in a storm drain in New Kingston, Jamaica. Often kicked out of their homes,

the youths are subject to violence in broad daylight and have few allies in a government that, by insisting it is not responsible for them, is complicit in the dangers and death that they face. The story reveals how the youths have eked a sense of home, community, and safety — relative to what they face above ground — from squalid conditions, and briefly explores some local activist allyship. But overall the piece is bleak as hell.

Immediately following the VICE documentary, DeGuzman screened MTV Decoded’s short video spot “Can You Choose Your Own Pronouns?” which offers some acerbic levity as it schools viewers on the fluidity of language, grammar, and gender.

The Long Table Conversation included members of the LGBTQ community with a specific focus on gender nonconforming and trans voices. Participants discussed the anemic sanctuary for trans people in Rochester and beyond, especially in the intersection of queerness, race, and class, and cited examples of recent nationwide precedents that have created serious setbacks to advances that have been made.

“We’re not safe,” said author, podcaster, and teacher Javi Mason, who then referenced the Trump administration’s ban of the word “transgender” from the CDC’s 2018 budget documents. “We are literally being erased, especially if we are people of color,” Mason said.

“What can we do to prepare for the worst?”

It was reported last week that 28-year-old Amia Tyrae Berryman was the seventh trans woman of color known to be murdered this year. She was found shot to death in Baton Rouge on March 26, and despite the nationwide flurry of discussions about gun violence, her murder has received meager coverage.

About a year ago some local activists founded Trigger Warning, a queer and trans gun club that is focused on self-defense and building resilience. The club is political in nature and was a response to Trump’s election, the failure of police to protect queer and trans people and people of color, and the ubiquity of police violence.

Safety and camaraderie isn’t usually found in public spaces, but at one another’s houses, said activist Adrian Elim. “I think a lot of us are very tired of public displays of these kinds of conversations, it’s always triggering, and we’re still just at level one, having the same conversation.”

Within a sub-discussion about allyship and unity regarding racism, sexism, and homophobia, Elim lamented the fact that those impacted the most by these issues — who are already struggling just to navigate the day with concerns like passability and how that paradigm impacts access to housing and jobs as well as issues of safety — are burdened with the extra labor of educating everyone else about why they should care.

Members of the long table also critiqued the cis gay community’s inadequate allyship for trans people and touched on marriage equality as “assimilationist” and not the end-all of the fight for equality.

The group also knocked the VICE doc’s lack of acknowledgement that Jamaica’s homophobia is rooted in its colonization, and for the exploitative tragedy tourism it provides to viewers around the world.

“You know how many homeless queer people I see on a daily basis?” Elim asked.

“But it’s just like, we have to project our consciousness all the way to Jamaica to kind of feel what that is.”

Activist, musician, and Trigger Warning co-founder Zora Gussow joined the group at the table to add that visibility in cultural programming is still intrinsically tied to profitability, and that people who don’t fit into established categorization or aren’t seen as profitable or productive — people with disabilities, or undocumented workers who don’t speak English — are forsaken by capitalism. Gussow added that genuine allyship is not just about accepting people’s existence, but being willing to step up and support the livelihood and actual thriving of marginalized people.

“I’m glad you admit that I actually exist, but you don’t admit that my existence is harder than yours,” they said.

An extended version of this story can be found online at rochestercitynewspaper. com. The next event in the At the Crossroads series is “Mass MisEducation: A Long Table Conversation and Installation” and takes place on April 14, 3 to 6 p.m., at Gallery Seventy Four, 215 Tremont Street.

ART | ‘VISION OF THE VOICE’ Artist Joel Dow has long been a fixture in the Rochester music scene, from their work in indie folk band The Pickpockets to their experimental sound compositions under the moniker City Harvest Black. Dow’s artist residency at Visual Studies Workshop culminates this Friday in a video exhibition called “Vision of the Voice,” their first formal show of visual art. Using analog video equipment, Dow presents a visual manifestation of their approach to sound. They combine black-and-white archival footage, film hand-painted in an abstract expressionist style, and video feedback loops to uncover sacred symbols in the language of light, patterns, and movement. The presentation features Dow’s “Wishing Well,” an interactive video installation that enables you to create your own kaleidoscopic video feedback loops.

Attendees are urged to “bring small objects of personal significance or insignificance.”

“Vision of the Voice” takes place on Friday, April 6, at VSW, 31 Prince Street. 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Free. 442-8676. vsw.org.

COMEDY | ‘DON’T GRAB MY PUSSY 2.0’ After America’s illustrious commander-in-grief bragged about assaulting women on tape and his administration launched attacks on women’s sexual and reproductive services, some locals, led by comedian Kelsey Claire Hagan, took a stand with standup. The inaugural “Don’t Grab My Pussy” event held in 2016 featured monologues, poetry readings, and comedy, and raised $3,300 for RESTORE Sexual Assault Services — which provides an advocate for anyone who reports sexual assault, abuse, or rape.

“Don’t Grab My Pussy 2.0” takes place Thursday, April 5. Flour City Station, 170 East Avenue. 8 to 11 p.m. 21+. $10. Proceeds benefit RESTORE. flourcitystation.com.

R THEATER | ‘THE TAMING OF THE SHREW’ WallByrd Theatre Company’s theatrical presentations each receive an unexpected but somehow appropriate spin on the stories — take its 2017 staging of “Macbeth” set in a post-apocalyptic, Mad Max-esque world, for example. This month WallByrd presents Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew,” mixed with the art of clowning, acrobatics, and mucis, and directed and designed by company founder Virginia Monte. The comedy has been reinterpreted in cinema: “Kiss Me Kate” came out in 1953, and lead character Katherine was reframed as a modern feminist in 1999’s “10 Things I Hate About You.” Katherine’s mild-mannered younger sister can’t get hitched until her strong-willed elder sis subjugates herself to a man. The story follows Petruchio and Katherine from their insult-slinging battle of wits (and Petruchio’s extremely problematic actions) to a tidy resolution.

The show fcontinues through Sunday, April 15 at Lyric Theatre, 440 East Avenue. Thursdays through Saturdays, April 5-7 and April 12-14, at 8 p.m.; Sundays, April 8 and 15, at 3 p.m. Tickets start at $18. wallbyrd.com.

But despite its popularity, the novel’s reputation has dimmed since being published (PG-13), DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG in 2011, as people soured on its decidedly male NOW PLAYING geek point of view and detractors accused Cline of propping up clichéd storytelling with hollow references to (mostly 80’s) culture, movies, video [ REVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW games, books, and music.

course, that only emphasizes how derivative the story it’s telling really is.

The film’s set in Columbus, Ohio circa 2045, in a dystopian future where citizens flee their real-life troubles by escaping into a massive virtual world known as the OASIS. The founder of the OASIS is the late James Halliday (a wonderful Mark Rylance), who revealed after his death that he’d built a scavenger hunt into his creation; a “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”-esque contest. The first person to solve his clues and find his golden Easter egg will inherit complete ownership of the OASIS. Our hero is Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan), a poor orphan who lives in “The Stacks,” a slumlike trailer park where the homes are piled on top of each other like Jenga towers. But in the OASIS, Wade is an adventurous “gunter” (egg hunter), the name given to those who dedicate themselves to cracking Halliday’s puzzles.

Wade and his friends Aech (Lena Waithe), Daito (Win Morisaki), and Sho (Philip Zhao) spend their every waking minute logged in, hoping to get even one step closer to the ultimate prize. Eventually they’re joined by Wade’s crush object, another gunter named Art3mis (Olivia Cooke), who becomes his love interest.

Included amongst their rival competitors are the employees of Innovative Online Industries (I.O.I.), a sinister corporation run

by Nolan Sorrento (Ben Mendelsohn), who wants to exploit the OASIS for his own profit.

Sorrento’s ruthless quest for control turns deadly, as his pursuit spills out into the real world. Soon it’s up to Wade and his friends to

save the OASIS from his nefarious clutches. The commodification of fan culture by corporate entities is something the film never bothers to really interrogate, despite its own role in doing precisely that.

Most of “Ready Player One” takes place within the digital world of the OASIS, which makes sense; it’s where Spielberg is able to let his imagination loose in a world without any rules or physical constraints. But it also leads to a film lacking in real human connection, which is a problem when that turns out to be one of the story’s key themes.

There are some inventive visuals throughout; I liked the endless, darkened hallways of the “library,” where gunters are able to peer through windows at video footage of Halliday’s life, combing through key moments for clues, including his relationship with his friend and business partner, Ogden Morrow (Simon Pegg).

Your enjoyment of “Ready Player One” depends on how much you ask from your sci-fi action-adventure stories. It’s a fun ride while it lasts, but once you dig even an inch beneath its surface problems begin to arise.

On one hand, the book — and by extension the film — are intended as a love letter to pop culture.

But the characters’ obsessive, encyclopedic knowledge of pop culture ephemera is how they distinguish a “true fan” from the “haters.” This mindset can’t help but feel reminiscent of the kind of cultural gatekeeping that gave rise to the toxic Gamergate movement, and the tribalism in fandoms that often makes the internet such an unbearable place to visit.

Also on the subject of toxic masculinity, Sorrento’s chief henchman within the Oasis is named i-R0k, and voiced by comedian T.J. Miller. He’s the only key character in the film whose real-life counterpart we never see. It’s impossible to say whether this was a deliberate decision on the part of its makers, but considering the accusations of sexual misconduct and assault that have been leveled at Miller, his presence — even in vocal form — can’t help but cast a shadow on things.

While it’s nice that Wade’s companions are a culturally diverse group, it’s worth asking why an anonymous white dude has to be its center, especially when we’ve gotten that same story told so many, many times before.

Surfacing some hard truths [ INTERVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW

Director and Pittsford resident John Curran (“The Painted Veil”) brings a welcome intelligence to his political docu-drama “Chappaquiddick,” which details the infamous July 1969 incident in which Senator Ted Kennedy (played

by Jason Clarke in the film) drove his car off a bridge and into a pond following a party in Martha’s Vineyard. The tragic accident resulted in the death of 28-year-old campaign strategist Mary Jo Kopechne (Kate Mara), while Kennedy himself walked away unscathed and with only the slightest impact on his political career. The film is an often damning examination into the corrosive power of privilege and celebrity, but one that manages to find a modicum of empathy for those on either side of the scandal.

Ahead of its local premiere this Friday, CITY spoke with Curran by phone about the delicacy required to bring such a potentially divisive story to the screen, as well as the challenges of maintaining a filmmaking career in Hollywood while living right here in Rochester. The following is an edited version of the conversation; visit rochestercitynewspaper. com online for the extended interview.

Helms, director John Curran, Clarke, and Gaffigan on the set of “Chappaquiddick.”

PHOTO COURTESY CLAIRE FOLGER

CITY Newspaper: There are any number of ways this material could have been played; in a sensationalized, “ripped from the tabloids” way, as a satire, or a procedural. How did you go about finding the right tone for the story?

What struck me most about the script was my reaction to it as I was reading it.

And how it begins as this sort of tragedy, then evolves into almost a farce. I found myself feeling for Ted, then I was sort of disgusted that I was feeling for him.

Then I was laughing at scenes, and being disgusted that I was laughing. That sort of visceral response and the shifting allegiances that I experienced, I wanted to capture in the film. And it was hard because I really struggled to get a very non-partisan, balanced tone overall to the thing. But playing with pathos and comedy doesn’t always work, so the finessing of that really came about in the edit. Taking things out, putting other things back in, because in some of the early edits it was tipping too hard into one direction or the other.

With the nature of this story, people are bound to come in with certain expectations, depending on their own political viewpoints. And a lot of them may have already decided what they expect from this story on screen. Was that on your mind at all as audiences started to see the film?

It’s a constantly evolving truth. Like a lot scandals, I’ve read a lot of dumb conspiracy theories. But people are probably going to leave with a lot more questions than answers, and that was the point, you know? People are going to see it through the prism of their political allegiance so to speak. Someone that hates Ted is probably going to be validated by the film, and someone that admires him might now have a more

complicated portrait that they have to consider. But in the end, I think the one thing that should unite all people — left and right of the aisle — is that we should all be taking a harder look at the people we support. And not putting up with crimes from [our politicians] that we would go to jail for. We certainly shouldn’t give them a pass just because we’ve elected them into office. I hope that resonates, obviously considering the president that we have today.

There’s an idea that in order to have a successful career as a filmmaker, you need to be located in LA or New York City. But you’ve managed it while living in Pittsford. How much of a challenge has that been over the years?

Well, I did my time in L.A. From Australia, I moved to L.A. and I was there for six years or something like that.

It’s tough to break into the film market anyway, regardless of where you’re living.

And I wouldn’t have come from Australia right back to Rochester. The reality of my job is that when I’m working, I’m somewhere else.

I was going off to China for a year and a half to do a film, and my wife and I had just had a kid in Australia. My wife is from Rochester as well and she’s like, “well while you’re in China, I’m going to go back home and spend a year there.”

That one year turned into all his entire time through school — he’s in college now and about to graduate. So I spend more time now in L.A. since I’ve got to keep one foot there. I’ll hopefully be dual coast soon, where I’ll have a place there and go out for months at a time, but then come back here whenever I can.

Vibrant on Varden

21 Varden Street

The term “move-in ready” doesn’t quite do the home at 21 Varden Street justice. While it is indeed ready to go, it has also been lovingly cared for and updated, with every detail attended to and high quality finishes incorporated into the modern updates. As a bonus—if you’re not one for decorating but you appreciate good design, all the work has been done for you! Rich wall colors, wallpaper, and unique light fixtures give each room a special feel while still harmonizing with the historic character of the home. Historic details remain intact throughout, including hardwood floors, leaded glass windows, original unpainted doors with glass knobs, and much unpainted woodwork.

Great care has also been given to the outside of this home. The front yard is beautifully landscaped with a variety of plantings and a stone wall. The full width front porch invites you to sit and stay awhile; it’s a perfect place to chat with neighbors on their way by or enjoy your morning coffee. You enter the home through an original wood door into a small entrance vestibule, which retains its historic tiled floor. The living room looks out over the front porch and opens to the dining room, which has a bank of wonderful, leaded glass windows, a coffered ceiling, and original plate rail. Both rooms have hardwood floors with a cherry inlaid border.

No expense has been spared in the fully updated, immaculate kitchen, which features new cabinets, granite countertops, new floor, stainless steel appliances, and white

tiled backsplash. The room is arranged in an L-shape with a galley style space for the sink, dishwasher, and cabinets at the rear and a more open space for the refrigerator, range, and a small table. The kitchen opens to the backyard, where you’ll find a patio and two car garage.

The private spaces on the second floor are just as special. A pocket door between the living room and staircase provides a nice separation. At the top of the stairs are three bedrooms and one bath arranged around a central hall. The master bedroom runs the full width of the front of the house, with a separate space that can be used as a dressing room, closet, and sitting area. One of the bedrooms has an enclosed sleeping porch that provides a panoramic view of the neighborhood. The full bath is completely updated, again with high quality finishes.

21 Varden St. is located in the Beechwood neighborhood, surrounded by a tight knit, active community and well maintained homes that display an obvious pride of ownership.

The 1,359 square foot home is listed for $169,900 with Nina Malatesta of Howard Hanna Real Estate Services. Contact Nina at 585-721-7076 to learn more about this special property.
