Morelle for Congress?

City readers sound off Our endorsement of Joe Morelle in the Democratic Congressional primary brought numerous responses from readers, most of them disagreeing with us. A selection of those comments follows. You’ll find more on our Facebook page and in the Comments section under our endorsement article. Due to the volume of responses, readers’ feedback is taking the place of Urban Journal this week.

My first reaction to seeing that CITY is endorsing Joe Morelle for the 25th Congressional district?

Disappointment.

Disappointment that you chose not to take the opportunity to advocate for an alternative to the status quo. Disappointment that you bought into the fear that the establishment relies on to keep people in line; fear that “the money” won’t show up for the candidate, fear of losing the seat, fear of losing clout.

Disappointment that you appear to have forgotten that you’re Rochester’s “alternative” newspaper.

I was hoping that you would look to the future when making your endorsement. Instead you chose to overlook Morelle’s gaping flaws because he has connections and those connections bring money.

Idealistic and naive it may be, but I had hoped that you would endorse the candidate that you felt would best represent our district and support a progressive vision for the country, not the one that you felt had the best chance to win.

We look to CITY to have be a platform for alternatives, and to show problems in a different light.

You failed to shine that light this time around.

KARL BERGER

Your endorsement rests on the faulty premise that the 25th district has even a

chance of being competitive.

Louise Slaughter may have had a close scrape in 2014 (which, by the way, was a Republican wave year) but that means nothing. She won by at least 15 points in almost every other election, which is the same amount that Hillary won this district.

There is no way that a Republican nobody will be competitive in a district like ours, even if he has a lot of money. Republicans are defending over 70 seats this year; they will not have the money or motivation to target ours. If anything, Morelle’s time in Albany will make him a target for Republicans eager to portray Democrats as untrustworthy and corrupt.

Any qualified Democrat can win this seat. If that’s true, why should we vote for the “safe” candidate who epitomizes the corruption and lack of judgment of Albany? Louise Slaughter was effective not because she spent time in office before Congress and had experience; she was effective because she had convictions, put Rochester’s interests ahead of her political career, and was a fighter.

I’m deeply disappointed that a newspaper that I respect so much would use such a weak argument to justify the endorsement of a candidate like Joe Morelle.

Rochesterians deserve better.

[ NEWS IN BRIEF ]

Court date on tenants’ request is postponed

Tenants of a westside apartment building will have to wait a few more weeks to learn whether they can join the city’s suit against their landlord.

The city is pursuing legal action against Thurston Road Realty, which is owned by New York City investor Peter Hungerford, for numerous outstanding code violations at 447 Thurston Road and 967 Chili Avenue. Judge Maija Dixon had been scheduled to hear the request from an association of tenants at the Thurston Road property last Friday, but the date was postponed to Tuesday, July 3.

Divinity school has a new buyer

Local developer Angelo Ingrassia plans to buy the campus of Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School.

Ingrassia said last week that he hasn’t closed on the property yet and doesn’t have a design, but he plans residential development that may include town homes and condominiums.

Much of the 24-acre property near Highland Park has been designated a city landmark, which means that new

construction or exterior changes to the existing historic buildings would have to be approved by the city. Ingrassia said he was aware of the landmark status and that he is interested in preserving the buildings, particularly the chapel and the library, though he is considering converting them to offices.

Ingrassia said he wasn’t sure about the future of the two dormitories and the parking area at the north end of the campus. While some neighborhood residents want much of the south lawn of the campus to remain undeveloped, Ingrassia said that’s unlikely.

Some of it may need to be developed to make the project financially feasible, he said.

Top Capital attempted to purchase the property, but the agreement fell apart earlier this year.

Ingrassia is also the owner of the former Medley Center, which he and his partners are redeveloping into Skyview on the Ridge, a mix of commercial uses, office space, and a community center for the Town of Irondequoit.

Divinity School leaders had already decided to relocate the school off campus before the end of the year. No new site has been announced.

Contemporary Floor plans

Rochester officials are in the early stages of a plan that will shape how people get around the city — and possibly how they choose to do that — for years to come.

The city is starting to put together a Comprehensive Access and Mobility Plan, which will tie into the city’s broader Rochester 2034 Comprehensive Plan. CAMP, as it’s being called, is all about transportation, and some parts of it will be extremely important to people who live and work in the city.

The plan will focus on five main areas: bicycling, walking, public transit, the movement of goods and emergency services, and transportation demand management. And in the course of developing the plan, city officials will pick a priority project from each category to start designing, says Erik Frisch, a transportation specialist with the city.

The bicycling section will, in some ways, be an update of the city’s 2011 bicycle master plan,

Frisch says. It’ll emphasize the importance of creating a “low stress” bike network within Rochester. To that end, the city has built out its trails and started to develop bike boulevards, which are formalized routes along side streets that more or less parallel major roadways.

“Most potential riders are not comfortable riding on Monroe Avenue, even if there’s bike lanes,” Frisch says.

The plan will likely recommend continuing those efforts, but will also probably include strategies to work more protected bike lanes and cycle tracks into city projects, Frisch says.

CAMP will also likely include a pedestrian plan, which is intended to make the city a more welcoming and pleasant place to walk, Frisch says. It’ll tie into Reimagine RTS – the regional transit agency’s ongoing effort to overhaul its public transportation continues on page 10

Rooms at the Hotel Cadillac weren’t cheap, and the living conditions weren’t good. But the Cadillac provided low-barrier housing for people who often couldn’t find shelter elsewhere and served as a last-resort option for social workers trying to help people in crisis.

HOUSING | BY JEREMY MOULE AND JAKE CLAPP

The Hotel Cadillac is closed. Now what?

The Hotel Cadillac’s doors are now locked shut. The neon green cable that secures its front entrance and the “no trespassing” signs stuck to its façade convey that the iconic building’s days of housing people living at society’s margins are over.

The owner, DHD Ventures, wants to redevelop it into something more upscale; the last public plans from the developer called for apartments and commercial space, but they date to 2015.

Activists pressured and protested DHD in the weeks leading up to the hotel’s June 12 closure. Advocates for the homeless occupied the vestibule in the hotel’s Chestnut Street entrance starting Friday, June 8, which is when a resident who had been hospitalized returned to find that she’d been locked out. Among those holding vigil were Sister Grace Miller and Sister Rita Lewis of the House of Mercy.

Rochester police broke up the occupation after DHD requested their assistance, according to the RPD. But the protests weren’t just about the Cadillac. The city is already dealing with a lack of truly affordable housing, an alarming number of evictions, and a seemingly growing homeless population, housing activists and advocates for the

homeless have noted. The loss of the hotel’s 90 rooms could exacerbate those problems, they argue.

“This is just one small part of a much bigger conversation we need to have about housing, and we’re not going to stop pushing that issue any time soon,” says Pat Dupont, a Catholic Worker at St. Joe’s House of Hospitality.

During a press conference last week, advocates including House of Mercy founder Miller and Ryan Acuff, a Catholic Worker at St. Joe’s, called on DHD to renovate the Cadillac and make the units available to very lowincome people. They also called on the city to develop a comprehensive plan for affordable housing in the community, especially addressing housing for people living in extreme poverty.

Leading up to the hotel’s closure, activists criticized the city for providing substantial government incentives to developers — including DHD — to build expensive apartments in the city with no requirement that they build units lowincome people can afford, too.

The closure also removes a low-barrier, last-resort option for social workers and organizations who needed to find housing

for people, says Nick Coulter, co-founder of Person Centered Housing Options. It was an option for housing people who tend not to do well in a shelter environment, he added. But the Cadillac wasn’t cheap, with the monthly cost of a room hovering around $700, he said. And it had problems with pests and vermin, he said.

“All things considered, The Hotel Cadillac is closed and its doors were secured last even though the Cadillac week, despite protests over its closing.

Morrelle responses It is difficult to accept that Joe Morelle supports universal health care when he has voted, with the Republicans, against the New York health bill, an equivalent of Medicare for All on the state level.

He has consistently resisted the call to end the private-for-profit insurance-company stranglehold on health insurance, even while chair of the Assembly insurance committee or as majority leader. Insurance and other financial corporations have contributed significantly to his campaigns.

And now he favors a new approach. Why does he not support HR676, the “Medicare for All” bill that Louise Slaughter cosponsored? Why does he not stand with Physicians for a National Health Plan with 50,000 members advocating HR676?

And what has private, for-profit health insurance done? Millions of bankruptcies and health status in the United States that ranks so low it is to our shame. We don’t need insurance companies overruling doctors. We need Medicare for All. BILL AND SALLY MCCOY

conservative, tone-deaf Democrats in the area.

Rachel Barnhart is the obvious endorsement for this seat. She’s the clear choice to carry Louise’s mantle.

She’s shown dogged loyalty to the area, she speaks her mind, hunts down the truth, and advocates and endorses policies based on her own research and analysis.

Perhaps the sorriest part of this endorsement is that in 2018, in the face of the #MeToo movement, City Newspaper would choose the one candidate who called a woman a liar for calling out her abuser. He never even properly apologized. It seems to me that a paper like City survives only by having its finger on the pulse, yet this endorsement shows how numb and out of touch this paper is.

BEN KIERAN

City’s analysis of the situation regarding the seat left vacant by Representative Slaughter is excellent as always. The conclusion – not so much so.

Democrats can’t afford to lose the seat – check.

Morelle and Wilt are the two candidates who would be most effective in Congress – check.

People (at least some) are tired of Washington insiders – check.

Congress needs more women and more people of color – check.

Morelle represents where the Democratic party has been; Wilt represents where the party needs to go – check.

It seems the endorsement of Morelle over Wilt is based on the proposition that Morelle has more money and name recognition than Wilt. We live in a culture where white men can pretty much be assumed to have more money than women of color, and it makes my heart sick that anyone might choose to vote against Wilt on that basis.

Democrats can’t afford to lose this seat, and I think they will be willing to pony up for the Democratic

candidate. Low name recognition will be an issue for both Wilt and Maxwell, but again the argument is that the white man has more money and thus will be a more viable candidate.

No wonder we have so few women and people of color in elected office!

The point was also made that Republicans are better at turning out the vote than Democrats. If Joe Morelle is the candidate, I think this will be true. But look how Democrats turned out to vote when Barack Obama ran!

Morelle against Maxwell, white male insider versus white male outsider. Wilt against Maxwell paints a very different picture, doesn’t it?

Maybe if a smart, articulate, coalition-builder like Wilt is on the ticket, people of color, women, fed-up Democrats, and even independents will turn out in a way they wouldn’t for a white male Washington insider. Maybe the entire community will be energized by someone who represents the future, and will turn out to vote for her with passion and enthusiasm.

NAOMI PLESS

You made a wise choice of Joe Morelle for the Slaughter seat.

Morelle’s whole public life is a rejoinder to Ronald Reagan’s philosophy that “government isn’t the answer, it’s the problem.” The school districts of Rochester, Irondequoit, and Brighton have been well supported by the state during Morelle’s tenure. Thousands of seniors, teens, and youngsters play softball, soccer, football, and field hockey at McAvoy Park in Irondequoit, constructed with ample state funding added by Morelle.

On bigger issues, Morelle has been a consistent supporter of broad healthcare coverage, women’s reproductive rights, and workers’ rights. I have had a couple of disagreements with Morelle, but he has had hundreds of votes and public positions which I agree with, and from which this community has benefitted.

In contrast with the other candidates, Morelle knows how to work with others and how to thwart the dangerous positions of a well-funded opposition.

JIM KRAUS

Your logic fails me, and the inconsistency of the article belies the endorsement.

If the qualifications for election to and work in Congress include having name recognition, being progressive, being a “fighter” and not being the status quo, the choice is clear: Rachel Barnhart.

1) You open by implying that a “fighter” is needed to balance Trump and the GOP. Rachel Barnhart has two decades of publicly asking the tough questions and calling out lack of transparency and accountability in politics.

She is the clear fighter of the four. Morelle only plays the game and doesn’t challenge power, even when clearly the power is bad.

2) You pick and choose significance of legislative experience. While a coalition builder for a number of years within the activist community, Wilt has just a little bit of time in elected office. You praise her time there but dismiss Adam McFadden by saying his many years on City Council don’t compare to Morelle’s experience, which means you have inconsistent yardsticks.

3) You claim all four are “progressives.” While three are consistent in that regard, Morelle has a mixed history when not politically beneficial to him. He voted “no” on the NY Health Plan, then claimed it was a poorly written bill when he should have helped shape it. All while he gets a ton of money from insurance companies. He offhandedly dismissed a woman’s claim of sexual attack.

4) Working in the current House is very different from all the candidates’ current work. Morelle is majority leader in a Dem-controlled legislature, McFadden is in Dem-controlled City Council, Wilt is in Dem-controlled town council, and they

don’t have records of tough negotiations for bills. Rachel Barnhart has a history of studying, challenging, and reporting on both parties in many different settings.

5) The work in Congress often is in committees, asking probing questions with opposition party doing same. Rachel Barnhart clearly has the smarts, skills, experience, and qualities to ask questions that are tough.

6) You don’t consider who can represent the whole of NY-25. Rachel Barnhart knows the whole district, both city and suburbs. She’s been to every corner of it for years, covering news and studying both sides of politics and issues. The other three are in areas that are only slices of the larger district.

7) Morelle’s fundraising skill is a major quality? If the seat is important for the Dems and progressives, whoever wins the primary will be able to secure funding from many sources, so one candidate’s history of gathering lobbyist money won’t be the deciding factor.

You missed the opportunity to help the community see how Democrats can move forward. With smarts, love of Rochester, knowledge of the whole district, clear fighter qualities, and not being “status quo,” the endorsement should have been Rachel Barnhart.

seat, and Morelle has the best chance to make that happen.

Wilt has a lot of promise locally, but she hasn’t gotten her name out there and done the legwork that was needed for people to vote for her. Morelle is riding on his experience and name recognition, but in the end will still be better than Maxwell.

TIM MALIA

The primary reason that I am a member of the Democratic Party is Joe Morelle. When did experience become a negative? I like and respect Robin Wilt and the others competing for this seat, but Joe’s experience and knowledge make him my choice. I respect all of the candidates and will support whoever wins the June 26 primary.

Morelle is the career politician, far from progressive but very close to Albany corruption.

The comparisons between Morelle and Wilt take me back to 2016 with Clinton and Sanders, Morelle and Clinton being the proclaimed frontrunners, with Wilt and Sanders having the better ideas and true progressive vision.

Please note frontrunner Clinton lost.

My endorsement goes to Robin Wilt.

SEANA CHRISTINE CATHERMAN

Disappointed beyond belief in City Newspaper.

In addition to intelligence, ability, and willingness to listen to others, Robin Wilt has a deep history of activism.

She could carry into Congress her ability to build coalitions between groups as she has between the city of Rochester and the suburbs. With her tenacity, she’d be the strongest of the four candidates vying for the seat to combat the Trump administration.

GERRY MINERD

I’ll be voting for Robin Wilt.

Joe Morelle is a good man, but we ran on the status quo in 2016 and we lost, and also many times before that over the course of my lifetime with nondescript go-along, get-along candidates.

I’m tired of losing with establishment politicians.

We need someone who can speak to the heart and soul of the party.

LGBTQ RIGHTS | BY TIM LOUIS MACALUSO

Trump and the dismantling of LGBTQ rights Donald Trump was no stranger to the LGBTQ community prior to his presidential campaign. And during the campaign, he addressed the community directly.

“As your president, I will do everything in my power to protect LGBTQ citizens,” Trump said at the National Republican Convention in July 2016. And a month earlier, he tweeted: “Thank you to the LGBT community. I will fight for you while Hillary will bring in more people that will threaten your freedoms.”

So what happened to that Donald Trump?

It’s hard to know whether he meant what he said at the time or that was campaign rhetoric aimed at anti-Hillary Democrats.

Trump himself was a Democrat for many years, but he has also referred to himself as a traditionalist when it comes to marriage.

He may have had more in common with conservatives – including opposition to LGBTQ rights – than anyone realized.

As the country celebrates Pride month and Rochester prepares to celebrate ROC Pride 2018, July 14 to July 21, it may be a good time for the LGBTQ community to access where the movement is and strengthen its resolve. Because one thing is clear: many of the gains made in the last decade are under attack by the Trump administration.

“Donald Trump said he would be an ally to the LGBT community, but he has completely abandoned the rights of LGBT people,” says Omar Gonzalez-Pagan, senior attorney and health-care strategist for Lambda Legal. “He’s actually done everything possible to reverse and attack the rights of LGBT people.”

Two of the top people in the Trump administration have a history of anti-gay actions.

As governor of Indiana, Vice President Mike Pence pushed through the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, causing a national backlash and costing the state millions in lost revenue. As a member of Congress, Pence voted against strengthening hate-crime bills and against repealing the military’s policy of “Don’t Ask-Don’t Tell.”

As attorney general of Alabama in the 1990’s, Jeff Sessions represented the state in a court case involving the Alabama’s attempt to deny funding to student organizations that advocated for LGBT rights. As senator, Sessions voted against adding sexual orientation to the definition of hate crimes and he voted in favor of the Marriage Protection Act. Soon after becoming US attorney general, Sessions began issuing memos that either overturned or weakened protections set in place by Obama. Among them: permitting faith-based organizations with federally funded grants and contracts to 8 CITY

JUNE 20 - 26, 2018

The prospect of rights eroding is new for many younger members of the LGBTQ community, says Rowan Collins, communications director for OUT Alliance. FILE PHOTO

be selective about the services they provide, based on religious freedom.

There have been many policy changes in the short time Trump has been in office that have gone against LGBTQ rights and protections, says Diana Flynn, litigation director for Lambda Legal.

Some are more high profile than others, such as Trump’s decision to reinstate a ban on transgender people serving openly in the military. Several related cases are tied up in multiple courts.

But Flynn says the one that bothers her most is the decision by Attorney General Jeff Sessions, no friend of civil rights laws, that transgender people are not protected by laws that ban workplace discrimination based on sex. The decision essentially wipes away the Obama administration’s interpretation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, Flynn says, which leaves some of society’s most vulnerable people without protection.

The Trump administration is essentially reshaping the justice system through the nomination and confirmation of ultraconservative judges, says Gonzales-Pagan.

Nearly one-third of Trump’s judicial nominees have anti-LGBTQ records.

“These are people who would never be confirmable under Reagan or Bush,” he says.

“Their opposition to civil rights, racial equity, and LGBT rights is a prerequisite to be on the federal bench.”

Neil Gorsuch, Trump’s appointee to the Supreme Court, made his anti-LGBTQ-rights position known early on. Shortly after joining the court, he wrote the minority dissent to

Trump is taking the country backward, says Harry Bronson, an attorney and state Assemblymember from Rochester. FILE PHOTO

the court’s decision requiring states to include same-sex parents on birth certificates.

What’s happening in the courts is especially alarming to Bess Watts. Both Watts and her wife Anne Tischer are longtime Rochester area LGBTQ activists. The recent Supreme Court case favoring the Colorado baker who refused to create a wedding cake for a same-sex couple was disturbing on many levels, Watts says. The Trump administration sided with the baker.

“What good is having marriage equality,” says Watts, “if you can go into a store and be refused service? What if I get hit by a car and the doctor in the hospital says he refuses to provide care? Until we are a protected class, I don’t think we’ll be fully protected.”

Some people say that the couple could have gone to another vendor who wanted their business, but they’re missing the point, Watts says.

“That’s like saying if Woolworths won’t serve you, then go to another counter,” Watts says. “This isn’t just about LGBTQ rights. It’s about civil rights.”

We’ve seen a fairly consistent pushback from Trump, says Rowan Collins, communications director for Out Alliance, formerly the Gay Alliance of the Genesee Valley. “We’re seeing an erosion of LGBTQ rights, and for many of us, it’s something that we haven’t really seen before.”

Many people in the LGBTQ community, particularly younger people, became accustomed to seeing significant advancements during the Obama era, Collins says. However, a big problem for the

community is that many of Obama’s executive decisions protecting LGBTQ people were never codified into law, which makes the reversals easier for Trump and his allies.

Trump reinstated the ban on transgender people serving openly in the military.

He rescinded the Obama-era rules for K-12 schools allowing transgender students to use bathrooms and locker rooms that align with their gender identity.

Overturning even some of the most important legal milestones, such as marriage equality, isn’t farfetched, Collins says. Collins and many LGBTQ advocates worry that Trump may be able to appoint another Supreme Court justice like the staunchly anti-LGBTQ conservative Neil Gorsuch. If that happens, the Supreme Court’s decision on marriage equality could be reversed, Collins says.

Much of the pushback Collins sees from Trump’s supporters goes beyond a rejection of gay or lesbian sexual orientation. That’s particularly true of the evangelical right he says.

“I think so much of the fear comes from the play on gender, pushing the boundaries of what’s acceptable as gender behavior,” Collins says. “This is the way to behave. This is what women do. And this is what men do.”

Trump’s explanation for his transgender ban in the military was the high cost of health care for transgender people, something that shouldn’t be the military’s responsibility, he said at the time. But the cost of medical care for transgender service members is minuscule, not even near 1 percent of the Pentagon’s budget, Collins says.

Trump’s reasoning is more likely to be tied to the religious conservative view that gender is not fluid, and that gender expression, like sexual orientation, is a lifestyle choice, Collins says.

“What a narrow view of the LGBTQ community, especially the transgender community,” Collins says. “It relies on old assumptions of what people are going to look like, be like, and what kind of work they can do. That’s really dangerous.”

State Assembly member Harry Bronson says Trump has a particular view of what masculinity means that’s reflected in his treatment of women and his constant references to other men as strong or weak.

“If you come to this with a certain perspective of masculinity, then genderexpansive ideas or that we have same-sex couples, all of this is a threat to you,” Bronson says.

In trying to eviscerate President Obama’s legacy, Trump has resorted to autocratic tactics that are taking the country backward, Bronson says. “If you’re different, then you’re the other,” Bronson says.

Authoritarian regimes have historically relied on marginalizing and sometimes targeting certain groups of people, he says.

“It’s an us-versus-them way of thinking,” he says.

Bronson himself has a pink triangle on his car, as a reminder that Nazis forced gay men to wear an inverted pink triangle in concentration camps as a badge of shame.

“Certain groups were attacked, and it was acceptable,” Bronson says. “I never expected, never had a hint of belief that this America is possible.”

The attack on LGBTQ rights isn’t coming solely from the Trump administration. It was a problem at the state level before Trump was elected, and it is continuing.

Last year, several states – including Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Oklahoma, and South Carolina – had bills contesting marriage equality. And at least three states had bills that would prevent LGBT individuals or couples from adopting children.

Bias isn’t limited to red states. Bronson points to the GENDA, the Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act which would include gender identity and expression as a protected class under New York State’s hate crimes law. And it would protect against discrimination in housing, employment, and public accommodations.

GENDA has passed in the state Assembly eight times. But, says Bronson: “It’s never even come to the floor in the Republican-held Senate. There’s no support for it.”

Local Senate Republicans Joe Robach and Rich Funke have shown no interest in it, Bronson says.

“We have a ban on conversion therapy that the Senate won’t approve, either,” Bronson says. The American Psychiatric Association describes conversion therapy as unethical. But with Trump in the White House, there’s little chance that state leaders on the right will support the legislation out of fear of retaliation, he says.

One minor victory: for the first time, Monroe County officials will display a Pride flag on the County Office Building during ROC Pride week.

Both Out Alliance’s Collins and Bronson say that the LGBTQ community needs to recognize the importance of intersectionality. The LGBTQ community is wide and diverse, and it intersects with many different communities that share many of the same concerns about Trump: people of color, Muslims, immigrants, women, educators, and health care workers.

“We aren’t just talking about protecting LGBTQ rights,” Collins says. “We have to talk about racism. We have to talk about Islamophobia. We have to talk about antiimmigration. We have to talk about poverty and disability rights.”

system — and will lay out ways the city can support transit use, he says. And it’ll look at incentives or programs that could encourage people to use forms of transportation other than singleoccupancy vehicles.

The latter falls under the category of demand management, an approach aimed at lessening congestion during peak travel periods by reducing the number of single-occupancy vehicles on the roads at those times.

The plan will also explore ways to balance commercial traffic and the needs of emergency service vehicles with growing community interest in narrower streets that better accommodate cyclists and pedestrians, Frisch says.

“We have increasing conflicts between trucks and community goals,” Frisch says.

The plan will also include an official City of Rochester street design manual, which everyone from the state, county, and city planners to private developers can reference when designing, reconfiguring, or rebuilding roadways, Frisch says.

The city has already compiled a lot of data through the comprehensive-plan process, and much of the CAMP work will be based on that information, Frisch says. The city is, however, conducting an additional survey to better inform the process. It’s available at the plan’s website, www.cityofrochester.gov/camp.

The city has scheduled several community meetings about the Comprehensive Access and Mobility Plan. Next up: • Saturday, July 21, times and locations to be determined, in conjunction with HealthiKids’ PlayROCS initiative; • Noon to 4 p.m., Saturday, July 28, at the Puerto Rican Festival, 333 Plymouth Avenue.

A committee with members from groups including Reconnect Rochester, the Rochester People’s Climate Coalition, and Common Ground Health is guiding the plan’s development. The plan should be completed by early spring 2019.

URBAN ACTION This week’s calls to action include the following events and activities. (All are free and open to the public, unless otherwise noted.)

Doctors, Cuba, and the poor

Cuba and the Latin American School of Medicine will be the focus of the Rochester Committee on Latin America’s meeting on Tuesday, June 26.

The program will include a showing of “Dare to Dream,” a short documentary about the Latin American School of Medicine, which is known for preparing students from poor communities to become doctors who want to serve the poor.

The guest speaker will be Cheryl LaBash, who writes for Workers World newspaper and works with Doctors4Detroit, which supports students at the medical school in Cuba.

The meeting will be held at Downtown United Presbyterian Church,

121 North Fitzhugh Street, at 6 p.m.

Bus chartered for DC event

The New Poor People’s Campaign will conclude several weeks of activism across the country with a rally in Washington, DC, on Friday, June 23, and 1199SEIU labor organization is sponsoring a bus to take area residents interested in attending the event. There’ll be no charge for the bus trip.

The bus will leave Rochester late in the day on Friday, June 22, departing from 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East parking lot, at 259 Monroe Avenue. To register, contact Demond Meeks as soon as possible, at 750-6320 or email demond.meeks@1199.org, so he knows how many buses are needed.

Fighting racism in city schools

The Take It Down Planning Committee, Faith Community Alliance, and Movement for Anti-racist Ministry and Action Coalition will meet on Thursday, June 21, and every Thursday through the summer, to discuss ways to address racism in the Rochester school district.

The group will also be working with House of Mercy and St. Joseph’s House of Hospitality on ways to address homelessness in Rochester.

The Thursday meetings, will be in the Fight Village Community Room, 186 Ward Street, at 6 p.m., and are open to the public.

Dining & Nightlife

Beyond burgers — LDR's menu offers a Rochester Turkey Reuben and 'famous' onion rings. PHOTO BY JACOB WALSH

LDR is A-OK LDR Char Pit 4753 LAKE AVENUE DAILY, 7 A.M. TO 9 P.M. 865-0112; LDRCHARPIT.COM [ REVIEW ] BY DAVE BUDGAR

I’d long thought of the venerable LDR Char Pit — on Lake Avenue in Charlotte since 1945 and named after the original owner’s children (Linda, Donald, and Richard) — as a classic beach-side burger joint. While I wouldn’t dismiss that appellation, LDR also fits squarely in CITY’s ongoing series exploring local diner institutions. Is it friendly? Check. Legions of regulars? You bet. Long-time servers? Indeed — some have been there for decades. Convivial? Yup. Basic, home-cooked, fresh food, for good value? For sure. Rice pudding as a dessert option? It’s there. Breakfast, not only on the menu, but served all day? That’s a clincher.

Through years of burger-binging, I can attest to the deliciousness of those at LDR, which are first cooked over charcoal (putting the “Char” in Char Pit), then

finished on the flat-top grill. This method augments LDR’s commitment to cutting and grinding its own beef, as the sign on the front of the building prominently and proudly proclaims. But my visits for this story needed to go beyond burgers.

Once inside LDR you immediately encounter a long counter with about 20 stools, and beyond the counter is an assortment of tables and booths. Everything is surrounded by walls festooned with a collection of vintage Charlotte artifacts including black-and-white photos of landmarks, maps, lighthouse blueprints, and framed newspaper articles. Sitting at the counter affords diners a look at two large menu boards — one for breakfast items, one for everything else — along with a view of the entire cooking area and the opportunity to take in the repartee between servers and cooks.

No matter where you sit, all ordering and payment takes place at the counter, except for a Friday-night tradition of table service (and fish frys). At each end of the counter is a condiment bar with mustard, ketchup, relish, both dill and sweet pickles, sliced

banana peppers, chopped onion, and a meaty homemade Rochester-style hot sauce (kept warm) that I found delightfully tangier and spicier than many.

On the first visit, I ordered one of LDR’s signature menu items: the steak bomber ($9.75): LDR’s “famous” ribeye steak (chopped) on a grilled Di Paolo hoagie roll, topped with finely chopped bacon, mushrooms, and mozzarella, with a side of French fries, to which I added a side of gravy for dipping delight. Requiring a bevy of napkins, this sandwich is a hot, mouthwatering mess.

My girlfriend, Molly, had a Rochester Turkey Reuben ($7.95). LDR roasts its own turkey, which is thickly-sliced and browned for this sandwich, and assembled with Swiss cheese, coleslaw, and Thousand Island dressing on expertly-browned rye bread, creating a Reuben that is on par with any in our fair city. The “Famous Homemade” onion rings ($4.15) she ordered are “famous” for good reason and among the best I’ve had anywhere. Large in diameter, thickly hand-cut, and made with LDR’s

own batter, they are crisp, hot, and importantly, when bitten the batter and onion come away in equal proportion.

On an ensuing breakfast visit, Molly had raisin French toast ($5.45), and the cook staff agreeably accommodated her request for well-done toast. She declared the dish “nicely eggy and light.” LDR uses real, fresh-cracked eggs, rather than the eggs from a carton used by others. I opted for the homemade corned beef hash ($7.55), which comes with two eggs, home fries, and toast.

With my over-easy eggs served on top of the pleasantly salty and finely-ground hash, next to chunky home fries, my meal resembled a breakfast-y garbage plate.

Our third visit included Molly’s daughters. LDR offers seven versions of Rochester “Plates,” and the Red Plate ($8.05) was perfect for Jocelyn, who likes her hot dogs sans-bun. She chose French fries and baked beans for her two sides, and called the restaurant “cozy and lively.” Norah savored a grilled cheese sandwich ($4.15), with French fries ($3.05) on the side, which she described as “crisp and delicate.”

Seeing as it was Memorial Day (and that I was seriously hungry), I opted for the Red, White & Blue Plate ($10.75), which features a Ground (LDR’s parlance for burger), a Zweigle’s Texas (red) hot, and a Zweigle’s white hot, and I chose the traditional home fries and mac salad to complement my meats. This was a heaping helping of food, with nicely charred hots.

The only quibble I had was that the plate home fries are the same as the breakfast home fries — big and chunky, not the more familiar small, crisp dice. Unique to the Rochester Plate scene, the plates at LDR come unadorned; the typical mustard, ketchup, onions, and hot sauce are all applied at will at the condiment bars.

Manager Darcy Pusey believes that people have been coming back to the Char Pit for more than 70 years for the handcut steaks for sandwiches, the freshly cutand-ground mix of top round and ribeye for burgers, the specially spiced batter for onion rings, the all-day breakfast service, and the friendly faces. The location by the beach doesn’t hurt, either, at least during the warmer months. But business drops by more than 50 percent in the winter, and it’s the regulars (whose orders many of the servers know by heart) who keep things afloat during the bleaker months. Combine a visit this summer with a day at the beach, and head back in the winter when the pace slows down. Each time, you’ll enjoy both a familiar comfort and a tasty meal at a good value. And don’t forget the onion rings. rochestercitynewspaper.com CITY 11

The band has managed to maintain its cool even in the dark ages of early Empty-V, from which ironically, ZZ Top had its biggest hits. Live, the trio unleashes deceptively simple rock ‘n’ roll. And they ain’t gonna stop. I sat down with Billy Gibbons, the guitarplaying hombre in the group back in 2012 and asked him how will it end? What will be the legacy of ZZ Top? “How will it end?” he said. “C’mon, we’re just getting started. Ask that question in another 43 years. The legacy, one hopes, will be one that highlights the band’s three Ts: tone, taste, and tenacity. Oh yeah.” — BY FRANK DE BLASE

Max Muscato,The Forest Dwellers. Funk ‘n Waffles,

I didn’t have any expectations — low or otherwise — when I gave Lower Expectations’ debut album, “High Hopes,” a couple of spins. Consequently I was surprised, pleasantly, in fact, when it came barreling out of my headphones.

The twin guitar attack found here stops just short of being too saccharine or too poppy, even though it’s laden with hooks over an unstoppable rhythm section.

There is an ominous quality lurking in the grooves as indicated best in the fourth and last cut, “Dead to the World,” where singer Keegan Johnston prowls and positively growls the melody like a hungry jungle cat.

And come to think of it, Johnston’s big, bad baritone voice dominates, in a good way, this whole damn project with all its astute attitude and menacing tone. “High Hopes” reminds me of the Beasts of Bourbon. I’m tellin’ ya, this type of gunslinger bravado is what’s been missing in rock ‘n’ roll lately. You just need Lower Expectations.

Stickybun

“Heatin’ Up” Self-released stickybun.bandcamp.com

While Stickybun is a relatively young band, the musicianship on its debut EP, “Heatin’ Up,” makes it clear these players weren’t born yesterday. The local funk rock band came together in winter 2016 after bassist Shawn Rotolo and singer-songwriter Aaron Shewan turned their weekly jam sessions into a project with drummer Ian Shoenberger. The group later added Joshua Meyer on trumpet and Will Zimmer on trombone.

Stickybun fires off with syncopated guitar riffs, echoed by punchy brass lines, on high-energy tracks like “Boomerang” and “Stickybun Song.” All the songs use abstract and not-so-serious lyrical concepts as metaphors for subliminally existential topics, while the use of modulations in the music keeps the listener pleasantly surprised. The EP paints a picture of sauntering down a boardwalk on a hot summer day, thinking you’re the coolest person in town — and actually being the coolest person in town.

While the timbre of Shewan’s voice sounds almost too clean compared to the instruments, it cuts through the mix with a fun and easy-going vibe, kinda like Daryl Hall.

Stickybun whips up funky rock music that’s light-heartedly mischievous, with a golden crust that turns buttery smooth when you bite in.

Amplifying voices Queer Rock Camp MONDAY, AUGUST 6, THROUGH FRIDAY, AUGUST 10 GIRLSROCKROCHESTER.ORG [ FEATURE ] BY KATIE PRESTON

They did it all themselves. The band members, who only met a week ago, take to their instruments in matching shirts, sporting their new screen-printed logo.

The audience goes wild as the band of girls and non-gender-conforming youth break into their original song. Anyone who has witnessed a Girls Rock! Rochester showcase has probably noticed the overwhelming sense of encouragement in the air and, in turn, confidence coming from the bands on stage.

Girls Rock! Rochester has been running music camps every summer since 2012, and in August, the group will start a new session: Queer Rock Camp. At the weeklong camp, the voices of queer, gender variant, gender non-conforming, and allied youth, ages 12 to 18, will be amplified — literally — with microphones, guitar amps, boost pedals, and drum kits.

Kaci Smith, a musician and teacher, and a group of volunteers started GR!R in 2011. The camp is part of the larger Girls

Rock Camp Alliance, which has chapters all over the world. Smith was inspired to start Queer Rock Camp after seeing that GR!R no longer felt like the right fit for some of the older participants.

“Even though Girls Rock is open to gender expansive and trans youth, some didn’t feel like Girls Rock was for them,” Smith says.

It is the goal of the volunteers, Smith says, to embolden and empower these young people to use their voices, taking what they’ve learned about selfacceptance, social change, and compassion with them beyond camp. And, Smith notes, there will be educational opportunities for the campers, like a social justice workshop led by KaeLyn Rich, Assistant Advocacy Director for Chapters of the New York Civil Liberties Union, and another workshop on self-love and identity acceptance.

Emma Forbes-Jones, a psychologist who specializes in gender issues, became active in helping organize the two camps after her daughter began attending GR!R. She believes that coming out as nonconforming at a young age can be isolating.

“I hope that kids find connection with each other and with adults who truly get them,” Forbes-Jones says. “I hope that the kids find their voices and lift them

together and realize how much power, both personal and communal, there is in this experience.”

Over the course of a week, campers can pick up and learn an instrument, form a band, and write a song. Local musicians and members of the LGBTQ community will work with the kids to help bring each band to life. And the camp ends in an electric grand finale: the showcase.

Forbes-Jones says she’s impressed with the climate at Girls Rock! Rochester and expects Queer Rock to be the same. “The camp really ‘walks the walk’ and goes beyond ‘welcoming’ and ‘accepting’ to provide an affirming environment for gender expansive kids,” she says.

Queer Rock Camp starts Monday, August 6, and ends with a showcase on Friday, August 10. The camp will be held at First Unitarian Church, 220 South Winton Road. Full tuition is $300, and financial aid is available.

Between now and August, Girls Rock!

Rochester is seeking volunteers and donations, as well as accepting camper applications.

FOLK | TREVOR HALL

Colorado-based singer-songwriter Trevor Hall’s music is as spiritual as he is. While studying classical guitar at an arts academy in California, Hall was introduced to meditation and yoga, spiritual practices that he would carry with him throughout his musical career. Hall has a scratchy and airy voice with a soulfully tender vibrato, and his music is dreamy and meditative, blending elements of hip-hop, folk, and pop. It sounds like a sonic exhibition of an honest human heart that is sometimes upbeat and uplifting, sometimes languid and longing.

Trevor Hall will perform Sunday, June 24, at Funk ‘N Waffles, 204 North Water Street. 8 p.m. $30. funknwaffles. com; trevorhallmusic.com.

Theater

Reenah Golden has opened a community theater on Joseph Avenue. “The patrons of the arts in Rochester don’t necessarily reflect all of what Rochester’s population is. Mostly that’s because people get priced out at the door.” PHOTO BY KURT INDOVINA

Rising culture on Joseph Ave The Avenue Blackbox Theatre 780 JOSEPH AVENUE 491-6730; AVENUETHEATRE.ORG; THEAVENUEBLACKBOX@GMAIL.COM [ PROFILE ] BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

Joseph Avenue’s arts and cultural scene continues to grow with the recent opening of The Avenue Blackbox Theatre, a new venue in a stand-alone building at 780 Joseph Avenue that formerly housed Your Local Pharmacy. At the helm is Rochester-based artist, writer, and performer Reenah Oshun Golden, who says her vision has been to create a community theater that serves the Joseph Avenue neighborhood and incorporates the “culture that already exists here, not just imposing something on the space, but actually allowing the community to be a part of it.”

The space is already hosting theatrical and multimedia performances as well as programming for children. Golden anticipates being ready to launch a full, premiere season in the fall, but says that the space will keep 18 CITY JUNE 20 - 26, 2018

offering programming throughout the summer. Until then, renovations will keep rolling out in segments that won’t interfere with the performances.

The Avenue is partnered with the Joseph Avenue Arts and Culture Alliance, which has been working to fund arts along Joseph Avenue, and use the arts to beautify the neighborhood. The alliance purchased the synagogue down the street, which is being developed into a performing arts center as well.

Golden’s previous efforts to manifest her vision for this neighborhood theater and community space began at PUC Achieve Charter School off of Hudson Avenue, where she helped build a theater. But when the school’s new administration came through the momentum didn’t last. She moved out of that space last July, and began looking for another space.

“I didn’t want to go to the Neighborhood of the Arts, or the East End to create something like this,” Golden says, adding that the 14621 neighborhood needs more cultural programming.

The opportunity on Joseph Avenue arose in early fall 2017 through a connection with

Annette Ramos, who Golden has worked with creatively for years, and who is on the board of the Joseph Avenue Arts and Culture Alliance. Golden’s first walk through of the current space was in November.

The more than 2,000 square-foot space’s capacity is 72 seats, with the audience facing a white staging wall and with its back to the opposite wall’s large windows.

“We’re a black box with a white wall,” Golden says. “We can do projection, multimedia, and multidisciplinary stuff, the type of work I like to do and want to curate in the space.”

At the moment the stage is a floor-level instead of elevated, but the team is designing a custom sprung floor “so it’s more comfortable for performers and especially dancers,” Golden says.

Handy friends have helped renovate the space, Golden says. The bones of the theater are complete, with a box office, lobby, and gallery. Golden is also working with architect Rich Rosen, who is volunteering his time to design ways to use the upper spaces of the lofty theater to install lighting and sound apparatuses, a recording booth, and storage space for props and sets. Dressing rooms

and a new bathroom are also in the works.

Home Depot donated almost all of the paint the space needed.

What was the central pharmacy area of the former store will house a community room that will host workshops, a smart classroom for youth, readings, community meetings, a literacy center, and a concessions area during shows.

In early June the venue held a fourday Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening Weekend, with both free and ticketed events that included live community art making, music, theatrical performances, a gallery exhibit opening, and a parade with interactive storytelling featuring Annette Ramos and Rochester Latino Theatre Company, which is The Avenue’s first resident group.

Other resident groups include More Than Rebel Noise and Breathing Fire Teen Poetry Slam. The Avenue is also working with Avenue Children’s Theatre Project, which is free theater for children. “Kids will never have to pay to come to see a show, or get involved in acting classes,” Golden says.

The space will host travelling shows as well. Golden says she’s got tons of national and international connections, and has begun talking to friends about connecting with the space.

“One of my partnering organizations on the national level is The Living Word Project run by Marc Bamuthi Joseph, who is the artistic director of Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco,” Golden says. “And they have amazing touring productions that include some of the young poets we’ve both worked with over the years.

I’m just so excited — I’ve already had one of them in town as a resident for some of the community work I was doing.”

Fundraising is ongoing — Golden is writing grants and seeking new opportunities for partnerships with foundations and private donors, and there’s a crowdsource fundraiser going on. Additionally, she says the goal is to have the subscription base of the theater come predominately from the 14621 and 14605 neighborhoods.

“My vision is the idea that theater shouldn’t just be for folks who have disposable income, who can afford theater,” Golden says. “So the idea of underwriting for this space really has to take into consideration that 60 to 70 percent of our subscription base — they didn’t pay for the subscription. Their address makes them a member of the theater. I want the seats full every time, and to have that not be contingent upon whether or not people can afford the show.”

PHOTO COURTESY ROCHESTER MUSEUM & SCIENCE CENTER

MUSEUM | ‘DISCOVER MARTHA’S MAGIC’ The words entrepreneurship and invention in Rochester’s history are nearly synonymous with the names Eastman and Kodak. There are other individuals and companies that we associate with those words, but our town also has some early inventors and business people whose names have fallen into obscurity. This weekend Rochester Museum & Science Center will present a one-day program, “Discover Martha’s Magic,” in celebration of the 19th-century inventor, immigrant, and entrepreneur Martha Matilda Harper and her successful haircare franchise in Rochester.

A Canadian immigrant from humble roots, Harper saved her earnings and moved to Rochester in 1882, where she began selling a hair tonic she invented and eventually opening a string of salons and beauty schools. She invented the reclining shampoo chair that is still used in beauty salons today, and she was a social entrepreneur — of her 500 salons around the world, the first 100 were given to poor women.

THEATER | ‘SWANS’

KIDS | THE WHALEMOBILE

The world premiere of Rochester playwright Maria Brandt’s new work, “Swans,” will be presented this week at Geva’s Fielding Stage. In the era of #MeToo, Brandt’s story tackles the still under-acknowledged incidences of domestic violence. The play explores this through one family that’s been torn apart by abuse. When the mother returns after a ten-year absence, her son must confront both the reasons she left and his own individual role in a world unsafe to women. “Swans” is directed by David Henderson of Method Machine and the cast features Spencer Christiano, M.J. Savastano, Judy McCaffrey, and Kevin Sweeney. Discretion is advised due to adult subject matter.

It’s never too early to get kids thinking about the health of the oceans and the creatures that inhabit it. Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County will this weekend host a fun interactive exhibit that allows kids to explore and appreciate the ocean using the humpback whale as an entry point — literally. Cynde McInnis, Education Director at Cape Ann Whale Watch, will share her Whalemobile, a 40-foot replica of a real whale named Nile. Visitors can go inside the replica, hear the sounds of different whale species, touch real whale parts, and learn how to help protect whales.

“Swans” will be staged at Geva Theatre Center, 75 Woodbury Boulevard, on Thursday, June 21, at 7 p.m. (followed by a talkback with RESOLVE & Stand Up Guys); Friday, June 22, at 7:30 p.m.; and Saturday, June 23, at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. (final performance ASL-interpreted). $17$20. 232-4382; gevatheatre.org.

ART | ‘BIRDS IN ART’

This Friday night Small World Books will host a gathering in celebration of the 10th anniversary of “I Am a Naked Person,” a short and sweetly humorous illustrated story about being naked by Rochester-based artist Ray Ray Mitrano. The party also serves as a tour kick off — Mitrano will travel throughout the summer to various venues, events, and gatherings across the country. The Small World gathering will feature an interactive reading, potluck (bring a dish!), a bonfire in the garden, and guest accompaniment from other local artists.

On view at Cumming Nature Center this summer is “Birds in Art,” a touring exhibit featuring 60 works by international artists, drawn from the 42nd annual exhibition of the same name held at Wisconsin’s Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum. Visitors can check out avian interpretations by contemporary artists working in an array painting and sculptural media. And the nature center is offering some companion programming, including Wooden Bird Carving, Birds in Culinary Art, and Bird Identification seminars; more information at rmsc.org.

“I Am a Naked Person” 10th anniversary tour kickoff takes place at Small World Books, 425 North Street, on Friday, June 22, from 7 to 9 p.m. $5 suggested donation.

A scene from “Incredibles 2.” PHOTO COURTESY WALT DISNEY STUDIOS AND PIXAR ANIMATION

We are family “Incredibles 2” (PG), DIRECTED BY BRAD BIRD NOW PLAYING [ REVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW

One of my all-time favorite film viewing experiences at the theater was seeing Brad Bird’s “The Incredibles” during its opening weekend. Watching the film, I instantly fell in love with its gorgeously-designed animation and exciting superhero action, combined with a sweet message about family. By the time the movie ended, my boyfriend and I were both so blown away by what we’d seen that we immediately ducked right back into the theater to watch it again. And it was just as wonderful a second time around.

All this to say that any sequel to “The Incredibles” had a lot to live up to. The first film

22 CITY JUNE 20 - 26, 2018

was released back in 2004, when Hollywood was still in the early stages of its current superhero movie obsession. Fourteen years later, “The Incredibles” remains one of the great animated films, and one of the best superhero movies of all time. So when I’d first heard Pixar was planning a follow-up to the original, I was apprehensive.

Happily, fans had nothing to worry about.

While it doesn’t quite match the first movie’s mix of heart, adventure, and style (though really, what could?), it’s still an immensely satisfying continuation of the story.

The sequel, once again written and directed

by Pixar genius Brad Bird (whose credits also include the masterpiece “The Iron Giant” and “Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol”), picks up exactly where the first film left off.

We check back in with superhero family, the Parrs: there’s Bob AKA super-strong Mr. Incredible (voiced by Craig T. Nelson), Helen, AKA extra stretchy Elastigirl (Holly Hunter),

their children, invisible teen daughter Violet (Sarah Vowell), super-speedy son Dash (Huck Milner), and baby Jack-Jack (Eli Fucile).

In the film’s world, superheroes have been made illegal and are forced to live by their secret identities, keeping their powers hidden from the population at large. But things begin to turn when Helen is recruited by corporate tycoon Winston Deavor (Bob Odenkirk) and his tech-savvy sister Evelyn (Catherine Keener) to be the public face of their campaign to bring superheroes back into the limelight.

Meanwhile Bob is left to care for the kids and Jack-Jack, a task made more difficult as the infant starts to manifest a variety of unexpected powers, including the ability to shoot lasers from his eyes, combust without warning, and suddenly vanish into other dimensions. As you might expect, caring for such a child is a challenge. As with the first film, the family dynamic is just as important as the super-

powered action, as the script weaves in ideas about gender dynamics and the challenges of parenting in its many forms.

In keeping with the sequel requirement, “Incredibles 2” is larger in scope than its predecessor, and Bird’s script has too many ideas tumbling around that don’t entirely gel into a coherent whole. Without the first film’s solid emotional core as an anchor, it feels busier and less focused than the original.

Helen’s first mission pits her up against a baddie known as The Screenslaver, who’s been hypnotizing citizens through their own monitors and television screens. Continuing Bird’s interest in examining the role that elites play in any society, the villain’s ultimate plot hinges on their belief that the existence of superheroes allows the public to grow complacent, secure in the knowledge that someone more powerful will swoop in and fix their problems for them. It’s an intriguing idea, though it doesn’t help that the Screenslaver’s true identity is evident fairly early on.

But the film’s highlights come in its many ingeniously conceived action sequences. Bird is a master at staging inventive superhero battles, taking clear delight in seeing how various superpowers interact with one another. “Incredibles 2” takes great advantage of the huge leaps forward in detail of animation since the previous film; these sequences put those in its live-action counterparts to shame.

The influence of the James Bond film series shines through: the “Incredibles” film are spy movies as much as they are superhero movies. It’s also reflected in the beautifully realized 60s-inspired retro futurist design, an aesthetic that carries over to Michael Giacchino’s energetically jazzy, John Barry-influenced score.

Battling against the weight of expectation, “Incredibles 2” doesn’t have quite the power of the original, but with plenty of humor, excitement, and heart, it’s still an exhilarating ride.

The Passing Parade

Ninety-six-year-old Barney Smith of Alamo Heights, Texas, is known around those parts as the King of the Commode for his life’s work: more than 1,300 decorated toilet seats, all displayed in the retired master plumber’s Toilet Seat Art Museum. But now, he concedes, it’s time to put a lid on it: “I’m beginning to feel like I’d rather be in an air-conditioned home in a chair, looking at a good program,” Smith, who is bent with arthritis and uses a cane, told the Associated Press on May 22.

Inside the metal-garage museum the collection includes toilet lids decorated

with a chunk of the Berlin Wall, a piece of insulation from the Space Shuttle Challenger, Pez dispensers and flint arrowheads, along with the toilet lid from the airplane that carried Aristotle Onassis’ body back to Greece after his death. Smith told his wife, Louise, that he would stop at 500 pieces, but that was 850 lids ago. “If I would have just read my Bible as many hours as I spent on my toilet seats, I’d be a better man,” Smith said. Louise died in 2014, and Smith took a fall recently and broke some ribs. Now he’s looking for someone who will keep the museum intact: “This is my life’s history here.” rochestercitynewspaper.com CITY 27
