COVER, JUNE 5: “HOME(LESS)”
CLARIFYING There are a couple of statements in Will Costello’s article that need to be clarified. For starters, Multiple Personality Disorder is no longer a recognized diagnosis in the DSM-V, but is now known as Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Additionally, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is definitely not “sometimes known as multiple personality disorder.” These are two very different mental health diagnoses and the treatment approaches are also quite different. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment specifically designed for the treatment of BPD, allowing clients to learn skills which will allow them to move through life in a more effective and emotionally regulated manner.

COVER, JUNE 12: “THREADING THE NEEDLE”
SEPARATION OF ... I always start these letters by stating, “I am a native New Mexican born and reared in Hobbs,” so people will not think I am someone who does not understand the special
and unique culture of New Mexico. Your recent front page article on the problem of parents choosing not to vaccinate their children and using the religious exemption loophole in New Mexico law to accomplish this can be solved quite easily. Simply pass an amendment to the New Mexico Constitution stating: New Mexico shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion. If you recognize the language it is because it is the first amendment to the US Constitution. The amendment promises not only freedom of religion but freedom from religious dogma affecting the lives of citizens who choose not to engage in religious practice. In other words, your religious rights end where my freedom begins. Children have the right to be protected from disease and those who choose not to vaccinate expose not only their children but others to life threatening disease. Therefore, the right of free religious expression is trumped by the children’s right not to be exposed to, and perhaps die, from preventable childhood illness. I respect all New Mexicans’ right to exercise their religion freely. I do not, however, believe they have the right to make laws based on religious dogma which affect my personal choice not to engage in religious practice. Keep your religion out of my life and off of my body.

Cop Out
Vacancies in the police department raise questions of money, public perception
Officers have left SFPD en masse for better-paying gigs in Albuquerque.
BY W I L L CO ST E L LO w i l l @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
T
he Santa Fe Police Department says it’s stretched pretty thin. Twenty-eight officers short of where Chief Andrew Padilla wants to be, SFPD’s vacancy rate has driven a frequent question at City Council meetings, where councilors often ask about the situation and Padilla typically replies that the department is hemorrhaging officers to the Albuquerque Police Department down the road. Another part of the problem, though, according to the chief, is that nobody wants to be a cop anymore. An understaffed force could have serious impacts on officers’ well-being if they’re spread too far across the city, according to Padilla. “Officer safety is a priority. Many calls for service that are high-risk or dangerous situations call for two officers, three officers,” Padilla tells SFR. On a recent ridealong, SFR witnessed two high-priority cases, one drug overdose and one involving a suspect in a stabbing. In both cases, multiple officers responded. With 149 officers (some of whom are detectives or commanders), and aiming
for 177, Santa Fe has an above-average number of officers for a city its size. Most cities have, according to an analysis of FBI data, 16.6 officers per 10,000 residents. With Santa Fe’s population, 139 officers would put the City Different at the national average; so, even understaffed, SFPD exceeds it. If it met its goal, the police department would have slightly more officers per 1,000 residents than Las Vegas, Nevada, and almost twice as many as Boise, Idaho. Deputy Chief Ben Valdez tells SFR that the 177 figure stemmed from a UNM study, and that differences in approaches to policing among cities and Santa Fe’s high tourist traffic necessitate more officers. “Santa Fe expects that level of service from us, and we strive to provide that,” Valdez says. But why is the department having trouble filling its vacancies? “It’s a tough time to be a police officer,” Padilla says. “You’re highly scrutinized. Pretty much everything you do is recorded, either on video or audio. You have to make split-second decisions, and everyone likes to armchair, Monday-morning quarterback. The media portrays a certain angle or
plays a tidbit of information, good or bad, the officer is hounded for it or praised for it.” Scrutiny of law enforcement personnel has grown in recent years, following numerous high-profile killings by officers. But increased scrutiny doesn’t necessarily lead to lower rates of applicants eager to put on the uniform. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a 7% growth rate of police and detectives between 2016 and 2026, a rate the bureau reports is “as fast as average.”
Santa Fe expects that level of service from us, and we strive to provide that. -Ben Valdez, Santa Fe deputy police chief
NEWS
Nor does scrutiny necessarily indicate colder feelings toward the police; Gallup polls consistently find that Americans have more confidence in the police than almost any other institution; 54% of people say they have either “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of respect for police, surpassed only by small business and the military. A more likely reality is that the Santa Fe PD just doesn’t pay enough. The department has been shedding officers, often to the less-stingy Albuquerque Police Department. The much tighter housing market in Santa Fe could also contribute to the problem: Many officers live in Albuquerque and commute to Santa Fe. “Here locally, it’s been very competitive regarding pay,” Padilla says. “Albuquerque Police Department changed the game a couple years ago when they said they were going to raise their hiring rates. And they did, so we lost a big group of officers down to APD, and we’re still trying to recover.” Valdez declined to provide the names of any of the officers who left for Albuquerque, citing confidentiality issues and adding that APD would be the only ones who could approve interviews. An APD spokesman did not make any officers available for interviews. The pay difference is stark. A new recruit in Albuquerque makes a starting rate of $29 per hour, according to APD spokesman Gilbert Gallegos, compared to $19 an hour earned by an entry-level officer in Santa Fe. A sergeant in Santa Fe makes $31 per hour, whereas the same position in Albuquerque pays $35 per hour. Padilla says he hopes to change the situation sooner rather than later. “There’s no hard deadline. We’re in it now, but hopefully it’ll all be resolved within 60 days,” Padilla says. In an attempt to stop the bleeding, the Santa Fe Police Officers Association signed off on a series of pay increases last week that will focus on patrol officers—the ones, in the department’s view, who are most at risk of leaving for greener pastures, according to a news release issued by the city. If the City Council approves the plan at its meeting this Wednesday, starting officers’ pay will jump to $22 per hour. The move follows a measure passed by the City Council in January that provided a retention bonus to officers who promised to stay with the department until after the new contract is approved. That bonus totaled $600,000, and netted individual officers about $4,700.

ou’ve got ranchers, hobbyists, seasoned professional athletes who’ve traveled from across the country to compete, and amateurs on their first round in the arena. Plus, you’ll find fearless cowboys and cowgirls wrestling steers to the ground and trying not to get bucked from raging bulls and broncos. There’s speed racing and roping, for which a good horse will sell for upwards of $25,000. And then, of course, camp events entail dressing goats in underwear and steers in ribbons, men and women in drag racing across the arena, wild dance parties and drag queen royalty entertaining the crowds. Welcome to the gay rodeo! Usually, the New Mexico Gay Rodeo Association hosts the annual Zia Regional Rodeo at the Rodeo de Santa Fe arena in August. But this year Santa Fe’s gay rodeo will take place during the same weekend as Santa Fe Pride. “We would have never chosen to plan it this way because we really don’t want the rodeo to compete with Pride,” NMGRA President Keith Holtzclaw tells SFR. “It was a total coincidence based on when bookings were available.” But for one queen at least, the overlap seems serendipitous. Paul Vasquez, who goes by Marie Antoinette Du Barry when in drag, is Miss New Mexico Gay Rodeo Association 2019. She’s also the emeritus Miss Santa Fe Pride 2019. On Saturday, she gets to be both. Du Barry will look every bit the fairy tale empress as she rides the NMGRA float in Saturday’s Pride parade in a stunning hand-embroidered gown and a double crown, but underneath she’ll wear jeans and boots. She is a rodeo queen after all, and her duties include knowing how to rope steers, time events and deliver CPR, as well as performing shows to raise funds for the rodeo and for the charities to which the NMGRA donates all of its proceeds.

he first Pride was a riot led by trans women of color at New York City’s Stonewall Inn on June 28, 1969. Since then, though the quality of life has improved for some of our queer siblings, there is still much to fight for. A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll found that roughly 45% of Americans believe LGBTQIA+ people are legally protected from discrimination. Not so, and for this and many reasons, SFR holds this space for local queer voices on the eve of Pride’s 50th. In these pages,

f it’s true that love is the greatest force, and through it we become whole in relationship to both ourselves and others, then it seems there’s not much difference in the spiritual nature of those who identify under the queer umbrella or not. When I finished high school, I learned about African and Indigenous spiritual systems, particularly those relating to my own heritage. Prior to that, the Black Baptist church experience was my experience, and I was eager to darken the doorway every single time it opened. First sang in the choir at age 4. Baptized at 13. Youth group president at 16. Belting out the Lord’s praises all over the Music City, my hometown; Nashville, Tennessee. And now, call me Reverend O. But my road to reverence was built on sinking sand; realizing that none of the lingering post-puberty questions I had about my tomboyishness, or why I sometimes found myself attracted to both boys and girls, were to ever be addressed in the house of the Lord. A month of Sundays of stuffing feelings and questions in search of my “true” identity eventually led to me walking away from the church, then returning later in life and becoming a missionary and minister, and, eventually— and gayly—skipping away to continue my

something deep inside of him knew spirituality as a move toward better understanding and balance of self, regardless of what was being taught. Eventually he followed a path leading him back to his own Native American culture. Apache also discovered that he found wisdom and comfort in a different type of spiritual text: poetry. “I always find something in it that redirects me in the path I need to go,” Apache says. “Like the Bible does for some people, for me, it’s like that with poetry, and one I simply don’t take for granted. These writings from the sense of heart and spirit, I see them as spiritual tools.” Increasingly, there’s a shifting movement happening toward no labels and no boxes, as it pertains to identity in general. Yet, we do live in a society that prefers things to be defined—packaged in a neat, easily digestible manner. Martinez feels that “regardless of how any one identifies, if somebody needs to identify, that’s up to each individual. If you choose labels and boxes, then you know that’s your will, that’s your choice. But regardless of how anyone chooses to identify, you cannot separate the spirit from the body—otherwise, it’s death.” Apache agrees, and adds that because of the way society SY T E and religion attempt to fragment R U CO individuals, we are mostly “spiritually malnourished from the beginning, and grow up deficient in all areas that promote balance, which impedes the growth of the spirit. “We spend time consumed with consumerism instead of being concerned about our relationship and connection to the natural world,” he says. As he’s saying this, it resonates profoundly how relationship and love matter more than anything. In the spirit, we are all one. Focusing on things other than one’s gender or sexual orientation would create the spiritual shift we all seek in order to feel more of the peace we deserve on this planet, lovingly and without judgment. O
Period
Indigenous peoples have always seen that there are many different genders— two-spirit, third- and fourth-gender—and that sexuality between the genders is very fluid. ” Crisosto Apache, LGBTQ two-spirit of the Mescalero Apache, found a gateway to his own personal spirituality initially as a young child in the Church. Though once fully participating with the religion, he found no home for his authentic male and female combined identity. Often left feeling shamed and guilty by the church,

own unique journey. According to black lesbian mother, warrior and poet Audre Lorde, “Our feelings are our most genuine paths to knowledge.” The term “queer” is a social and reclaimed term. For many who identify as queer and living in their existing innate spiritual nature as it relates to gender and sexual identity, queer can present many challenges in relation to the popular world religions. Judaism, Christianity and Islam all shun those who choose to honor their ways of gender non-conformity, gender variances, gender fluidity and transgenderness and, most specifically, those open in sexual expression through same-sex and/or romantic partnerships. “I just feel that at our core, human beings are loving beings, made from The Great Spirit—an Indigenous name for what Western theologists label God,” affirms male-identified, two-spirit ceremonial leader and Santa Fean Wolf Martinez. “We are part of creation, and all things in creation are made from Great Spirit. Great Spirit is love, and that’s what we came here to do; everything else is an illusion.” The question of whether we are spiritual beings having a human experience or humans having a spiritual experience remains in strong debate across the various sacred circles. Actually, whether you are participating actively in this debate or not, it’s an intersection where we all connect with ourselves and our bodies by default, with every single breath we take. Through religion, one of the manmade aspects of spirituality, our scope of what it means to be spiritual is limited in order to fit ideologies of traditional societal outlets like churches, tabernacles, temples, mosques and synagogues. It’s this narrow lens that doesn’t account for relationship with nature, art or community to be taken seriously as spiritual paths, and to continually be discounted. Not long ago in pre-colonial times, relationship to self, others and nature was at the root of all human spiritual practice. “We haven’t always categorized human sexuality, or put it in a box. This is all something that has derived from the patriarchal dominant society,” Martinez explains. “Homosexual and heterosexual were terms invented, whereas

Mayor Pete: A Band-Aid for our Hellscape
Queer candidate running for president sure is nice. That’s it—nice
J

“
esus, please remove from me all of my homosexual tendencies and replace them with heterosexual tendencies.” This was the mantra. Hundreds of times a day since my first sexual awakening during the speed bike scene on Endor in Return of the Jedi. Obviously, I knew God was a stickler for phrasing and syntax at a young age because of my very churched upbringing, and what followed was more than a decade of praying that idiot 11-year-old’s prayer; for the next 13 years until I came out, fully and vocally, as bisexual. That’s the “B” in the LGBTQIA+, for those of you playing the game at home. I came out after spending most of college—and a few years post-college—as one of those chickenshit, “Its nobody’s business!” types but, since then, life has never been better for this li’l bi bottom. Oh, except for the fact that the tribe I was once too cowardly to name myself a part of faces constant murderous and unaccountable violence every day; from Santa Fe to Singapore, from Mecca to Kuala Lumpur. And this brings me to Mayor Pete Buttigieg, but first, an obligatory disclaimer:
I am white. I am cis. I am male. I grew up on the rich-bitch side of town and attended Santa Fe Prep. I do not claim to speak for the greater queer community— or anybody else, really. This is just one faggot’s voice thrust onto the pages of your local paper. And “faggot,” by the way, is my word and I can use it—just as it was used against me. But I digress. Mayor Pete. Oh, Mayor Pete. Where to begin? First of all, I want to live in the world where I can write him off as a milquetoast candidate offering more platitudes than policies. I want to live in the world where nothing distracts me from my full-on Stan of Elizabeth Warren, who is a moral leader our time desperately needs. I want to live in a world where a wholesome gay family broadcast into every willing television in America is just a matter of course. Sadly, however, not one of us lives in that world. We live in the world where Saudi Arabia, the country we apparently just have to sell bombs to, beheaded five men who “confessed” to being gay under torture in April. We live in the world where queer people risk death simply by existing in Kenya and numerous other African countries. We live in the world where black trans women are murdered on American soil— at least 10 so far in 2019 alone, as of this

writing—and nobody has been arrested. I invite you to guess just how rigorously the various local authorities are investigating the matter of our non-binary fellows being brutally killed. Because we live in the world where the executive branch of the United States wants doctors to be able to refuse treatment to our trans siblings and force those with a uterus to give birth against their will or face possible incarceration. Or death. And into this world, this nightmare of inhumane bullshit, steps Mayor Pete. Buttigieg comes to us a two-term mayor, an Army veteran of our endless wars, a snappy piano player, a linguist, and a nice, clean-cut, well-spoken, young white man with a lovely family and adorable dogs. Mayor Pete seems tailor-made to reassure frightened elders that, yes, the queers are people too, and not mere deviants.

and people of all genders (or no genders) who rioted against NYPD brutality 50 years ago—Mayor Pete declares that us queers like dogs and ice cream—just like the rest of you. And it’s nice. And it’s fuzzy. And it’s plain. And it’s boring. And it’s … fairly unremarkable. In fairness, Mayor Pete advocates abolishing the antiquated and ineffective Electoral College, eliminating the filibuster in the US Senate and radically reorganizing the composition of the Supreme Court. These aren’t exactly half-assed positions, and he has also openly called for the president’s impeachment. Again, I want to live in the world where even those proposals are worthy, but the world in which we live requires us to be better than we have ever been. It requires those of us with privilege to put our bodies on the line. It requires so many things of all of us at all times that it is difficult to see the majesty of a gay family openly campaigning for the presidency. It matters that they can see us striving for leadership of this country, and it matters that all the little closeted Pentecostals, like my former self, can see an unapologetic gay man in the public eye. It matters that his sexuality is being discussed less and less with the exception of the cult-style preachers. All of it matters. It matters because we live in the world where our very existence is a political act, but I want to live in the world where it really doesn’t have to be.

PATRICK BALDONADO
A Date with the The mystique of Saint’s Ball, New Mexico’s premier drag provocateurs
I
BY JC GONZO jcgonzo
t would be misleading to simply call Saint’s Ball a drag troupe. Exploding out of Albuquerque’s nightlife scene, the emerging circle of unconventional drag artists has quickly made its mark on New Mexico in under a year with bookings now expanding to Colorado. You may remember Saint’s Ball from the Meow Wolf Future Fantasy Delight (the art and fashion brand of Santa Fe’s Nico Salazar) SS19 collection launch party, or perhaps you’ve caught performances at Sidewinders in Albuquerque. Maybe you’ve even stumbled across the troupe’s Instagram (@saints.ball). In any event, if you’ve seen them, you’re sure to remember—Saint’s Ball shows are more akin to unhinged, cathartic performance art than mere pageantry. “I want the drag scene to get crazy. I wanna see it raw. I wanna see more than just lip-syncing—I want a show,” says Liviana, one of Saint’s Ball’s queens, epitomizing the frenetic energy behind the group’s diverse showcases. “Every time I go out there and perform, I always think of how I can shock, surprise or stun the audience.” Saint’s Ball’s artists are indeed wildly individual, but they are unified by a desire to undermine convention in one form or another. A drag renaissance has, of course, struck the globe. Library readings, documentaries like HBO’s Wig and burgeoning troupes are more commonplace than ever, and it’s no secret that RuPaul’s Drag Race played a large part. The show premiered 10 years ago and has seen continued success, and while many Saint’s Ball queens have been inspired by the program, they often took mentorship from more seasoned performers in their local sphere to cement their own commitments to drag. “I watched Season 3 as a freshman in high school and was inspired by the winner Raja Gemini,” says Saint’s Ball per-
former Willow Heishii. “Later I got into modeling and actually met my first drag queen … Bonni Labell. She was the same age as me and a lot more skilled with makeup. She taught me some drag basics; she changed her name to Boy Izzy and got me my first gig at Sidewinders Bar, and I haven’t stopped since.” Boy Izzy performs alongside Heishii in Saint’s Ball to this day, and sees expansion to Santa Fe as a slow but steady uptick. “People in Albuquerque are, in a sense, accustomed to nightlife. There are more bars and clubs than in Santa Fe; therefore, more opportunity to go out and see us LGBTQIA+ performers,” Izzy explains. “They’re used to our presence; now when we visit Santa Fe, it’s a different story.” The general consensus is that while Santa Fe lacks a queer-designated nightlife spot, it hungers for one. Various venues have had to fill the void of queer nightlife establishments each Pride season; this year it’s Meow Wolf, which features Saint’s Ball among other performers such as DJ Oona and last year’s Pride Queen Guava Chiffon on Saturday June 29. “Performing at Meow Wolf is a whole world all its own,” says Saint’s Ball’s Ryan Stone. “The incredible artists are one of my favorite parts of New Mexico, and drag is no exception.” Said artistry—the makeup, fashion and overall drag aesthetic— seems to be of particular import to Santa Feans. “In Santa Fe, I feel that there is more appreciation towards the artistic side of drag,” says Kuwani, who recently began performing at shows in both Albuquerque and at Second Street Brewery’s Rufina Taproom in Santa Fe alongside local queen Bella Gigante. Kuwani advocates for alternative drag performances inspired by sci-fi and horror, and says there is a growing appreciation for drag’s assimilation into mainstream culture. “With drag becoming more and more mainstream, it really seems like everyone is pushing themselves

K AY L A C H I N G A D A
PRIDE to be the best,” Kuwani says, “which is amazing.” Thus, an expanding drag scene is exciting to witness. “I think Saint’s Ball especially is trying to expose people to new styles of drag that may not have been showcased before. I think we all can learn from each other, no matter how new or seasoned each person may be,” says performer Kayla Chingada. “There are so many queens, kings and people in-between who all have a unique perspective on what drag means to them, and I would like to see us all band together to uplift one another.” Unity isn’t necessarily congruent within the often competitive world of drag. Still, a thread of hope runs through Saint’s Ball’s members. “I think I can sense a wind of change in that,” Willow says. Let’s hope she’s right, particularly since drag instills confidence alongside artistic and performative skills. “I’ve always struggled immensely with body issues, my self-image and being perceived as a feminine male,” says Kayla Chingada. “Drag has helped to alleviate that; I tend to showcase a lot of body and perform very sensually because I hope to show people that you should celebrate your body, your gender expression and live your life without limitations.” On a similar note, performer Stone wants to tell the audience “a story that might make them think about the fluidity of gender in a relatable way.” Ideally, this might inspire new varieties of drag artistry; RuPaul’s Drag Race captures the masses’ attention on screens, but real-life experiences make lasting impressions. “I want people to feel inspired and strong enough to go out and pursue their dreams,” says performer Nadia Bizness. “I spent too many years watering down myself because I didn’t want people to be scared of me, but by being my true self and expressing my authentic art, I brought like minds to me and became a pillar of strength for them.” JC Gonzo is a photographer and writer interested in researching, documenting, and re-contextualizing sub- and counter-cultural histories as a form of meta-ecology.

queers, the white gays, the white trans folx and any white-passing people who are fighting for our civil rights in order to expand their narratives; so that they do more for people of color and work toward greater equity for the most marginalized in our community. We cannot keep deluding ourselves into thinking we are doing enough to fight for the members of our community who suffer the most—we need to step up our game and pay attention to who is leading the movement. It’s time to put Indigenous two-spirit people, black trans women, femmes of color and Latinx people at the forefront of our activism and thinking. Stonewall’s 50th anniversary later this week is not only a marker of 50 long years of trans women of color fighting for our civil rights, it’s a marker for the white community’s failure to direct their mass actions in a tangible way that ends state-sanctioned violence on those who are of color, of Indigenous and trans experiences who see the most

violence among us. I resent that rainbow crosswalks and rainbow mouthwash and rainbow Nikes are sold to us as tokens of respect toward the LGBTQ2IAP+ community. I promise you no amount of visibility can deactivate the hate and discrimination that is peddled to people through politics and religion and is perpetuated and fed by our inaction. We must confront the far reach of this violence and eradicate it from our society. Otherwise our activism is performative, and we are only here to better our individual quality of life. This makes us no better than anyone who is upholding any form of US-sanctioned violence. As an afab, transmasculine, and white-passing non-binary person, I am levels up in privilege and am perceived as a white man. I can’t recall a moment in which I have feared for my life, thus, I cannot begin to elucidate the type of violence, fear and stress trans women and femmes of color experience. This year, for example, the average life expectancy for trans women of color is 31 years old. My privileges place me in an entirely different part of the struggle, and it is my duty to yield any personal agenda I may have to uplift as much of the liberation as possible, instead of allowing varying types of erasure to obliterate histories, herstories and theirstories from common knowledge. Looking out into the greater landscape of my community, things are so bad. Black trans women and trans women of color are facing genocidal-serial violence in multiple states across the country: Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Texas and New Mexico—and these are just what have been definitively reported. Each year the list of names grows longer by dozens who have been murdered for being themselves. Visibility comes with violence. Queer and trans communities are under attack. Latinx trans women are dying in New Mexico while being detained in ICE facilities near the US-Mexico border, and they are alongside tens of thousands of infants and children in these concentration camps. Indigenous and two-spirit siblings continue combating the trauma of US settler-colonial imperialist violence while fighting for our one and only heavily polluted planet. Pride is not rainbow-colored items. And the corporations marketing and selling the rainbow are doing so because they want your money. Buying a rainbow will not prevent black women from being murdered, and it distracts from hard truths: Even as I write this I am
inhabiting occupied Tewa land. If you are non-Indigenous, wherever you are, know that you are too occupying land that’s not your own. The mass destruction of 130 million Indigenous people is our country’s foundation, the enslavement of black bodies built it into what it is today, and as we roll into the next days and years in our fight for trans and queer liberation, let me redirect you to our new starting points: The attack on trans people begins with the initial decimation of Turtle Island by settler-colonial genocidal practices; rape, murder and enslavement. Were it not for this starting point in colonization, you would not be reading this, and we would not be fighting against a gender binary that was forced upon those ancestors and violently imposed on us today. This is an uprising which is hundreds of years old, and I can promise you that for every drop of queer and trans visibility you see, a queer and trans person of color was the target of violence, hatred and discrimination—particularly black trans women and anyone who defies the constraints of the gender binary. The first Pride was a riot, and so far, the 50th Pride has become my personal resentment. It is imperative in our fight for transgender people’s civil rights that we advocate for the dismantling of US imperialism; the military-industrial complex, the medical-industrial complex and all organizations that deplete power from the people for personal gain. We must restore land ownership to Indigenous peoples, and we must shut down our dependence on profit. We must free all of the incarcerated people of color and pay reparations to the communities of color who have earned only pennies on the white man’s dollar. We must remember that while some are partying, others are marching. There are those in our community who do this work tirelessly, thanklessly, year after year—oftentimes without a choice. There are people who have lived and died fighting; there are people dying for this fight every day, right now, as we speak. It is not enough that our Pride and our fight are the focus starting June 1, and lasting only 30 days. We cannot let our movement calcify any further. We cannot accept hollow sentiments of love as action. We must be out there fighting every day, 365 days a year, for everyone, until we live in a time and place where people are valued and have all the means necessary to thrive.

Unicorn Parenting
The parenting world is not set up for Mos and Zazas
I
BY JACKS MCNAMARA jacksmcnamara
identify as genderqueer or non-binary. That means not exactly fitting on either end of the gender spectrum. I don’t particularly identify with the word “woman,” and I definitely don’t identify with “man.” I identify as something more creative and fluid, with aspects of both and aspects of neither. Third gender? Unicorn? Sparkly thing? I prefer that people use the gender pronouns “they” and “them” when talking about me. As in, “I saw them walking down the street and they looked fabulous!” or the way you refer to a person whose gender you don’t know: “Someone left their tiara behind.” A common gender-neutral pronoun that some folks use is Ze, and my parent name, Zaza, is based on that: Ze+Mama= Zaza. I don’t go by mom or mommy, and my wife, who is also genderqueer, uses the parent name “Mo.” It’s pretty cute; “Mo and Zaza love you!” But the parenting world is not set up for Mos and Zazas. This became abundantly clear early in my pregnancy when the doula leading the hospital tour offered advice “For all the dads in the room,” and then looked guiltily at my wife like she was embar-rassed but wasn’t going to correct herself. It was clear when the medical assistant at the women’s care specialists asked
why my husband couldn’t come to the appointment; when the ultrasound technician simply didn’t speak to or acknowledge my partner, who was in the room with us, through the whole procedure; when the urgent care nurse asked her if she’s my sister. It became clear when the prenatal yoga teacher directed us all to tap into the divine feminine and make spiral motions with our wombs, when every stranger in the baby groups on Facebook tells me “You got this, mama!” and when yet another well-meaning admirer exclaims to my baby, “You’re so lucky to have two loving mommies!” Or when the guy at the Big 5 looks at my rather robust child and says, “Your husband must be tall.” Or when I hunt for nursing tops online and everything is soooo flowy. Or when I hunt for more info about nursing and stumble across books with titles like The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding. Or when my midwife never got my pronouns right, in all the months we worked together. When most of my family members still don’t. Those moments make me and my wife feel minorly or majorly erased—like some part of our identities and our relationship is invisible or inconsequential. All the assumptions hurt. I often wish I could overlook those moments, that I could just reduce the sting and not care. It
would be so convenient, but I usually don’t say anything in the moment, because then I’ll be calling attention to my other-ness or making the other person uncomfortable. And I’m tired of being an educational experience for folks who are new to queer and gender non-conforming identities. So I wait until I’m home, or with a friend who gets it, and we cringe and wince together. But then there are the intrusive questions, like when myriad straight strangers ask, “Did you do it in Albuquerque?” Huh? It turns out this is a way of asking if we got pregnant at the fertility clinic 60 miles away. The answer is “No, it was a more DIY affair involving a mason jar,” but here’s a PSA: DO NOT ask your queer friends where they got their sperm or who the “father” is. It is super rude, and if they want you to know, they’ll tell you. Anyway, they probably don’t refer to their sperm donor as the baby’s “father.” That implies a whole different relationship. He might be the donor, or the duncle, or a non-entity, or something else altogether. It seems like 99.9% of our culture expects
people who carry and birth children to identify as women. It’s what defines a woman, right? But the thing is, trans men get pregnant and non-binary folks birth babies. People all across the gender spectrum are doing this parenting thing in many brilliant and unconventional ways. Not everyone parenting is in a straight marriage, but more people than you imagine still think this is a given. For real, folks, it’s not 1952. Single parents. Poly parents. Divorced parents. Queer parents. We’re everywhere. So let’s rewrite some children’s books. And pregnancy books. And parenting books. It’s not that hard to include gender non-conforming folks. For one thing, we can make changes to the language we’re using. We can use more inclusive words, like changing “mom and dad” to “parents,” or using “spouse” or “partner” instead of defaulting to “husband.” Let’s try including single people, because not every parent has a partner! Let’s try out terms like “the breast-feeding parent” or “the chest-feeding parent” or “the gestational parent” rather than defaulting to “mother.” Respect and practice using someone’s alternative pronouns, even if it feels tricky at first and you make mistakes. Or ask someone how they identify— “What’s your parent name? What’s your pronoun?”—if you don’t know. And then there are actions. Like, hello—where are the changing tables in men’s restrooms?! And where are the gender-neutral restrooms on a large scale? These things matter. They make people feel cared for and seen. They make pregnancy and parenting a little less hard for all the sparkly creatures in our lives.

A Modest Proposal “warmtech,” aka technology designed to decrease loneliness and isolation). At any rate, billions have been flowing into various proptech start-ups—nearly $5 billion in the last year. This year, such startups have been raising on average $475 million per month, according to Crunchbase. Some of that will flow toward affordable housing initiatives. In February, MetaProp, a New York-based early-stage VC firm, announced a partnership with the nonprofit Enterprise Community Partners to fund startups focused on affordable housing—$5 million to affordable housing startups by 2020. They plan to focus on a variety of areas, including technology focused on co-living, new platforms to make paying rent easier, and ones to help make land trusts and zoning laws easier to access and understand. Both affordable housing and homeless crises are rising in this country in easily quantifiable ways. According to the National Low-Income Housing Coalition, the nation’s shortfall of affordable units has hit 7.2 million. The rising homeless population nationwide is equally dire. In February, I traveled to Portland, Oregon, for the first time in at least a decade, and my first view was tents lining the

n his recent book, Unlocking the Customer Value Chain: How Decoupling Drives Consumer Disruption, Harvard Business School Associate Professor Thales S Teixeira examines patterns of disruption across various corporate sectors—cars, beauty and retail, to name a few—concluding that customers, not technology, drive disruption. When customers are unhappy with a service, their dissatisfaction creates an opening (this sounds pretty basic as a thesis, but he quantifies it in a compelling way). We are all—I would guess—becoming quasi-inured to these disruptions and react to them with varying degrees of sanguinity. I like being able to book my own travel, for example, but am less psyched about the collapse of print media. Proptech is reportedly a growing arena for disruption.

sidewalks, block after block. “Homeless people,” the Uber driver told me when I asked what was going on. “It’s gotten really bad.” Last year, The US Department of Housing and Urban Development reported Oregon had the second-highest rate of people who were both homeless and living without shelter; California is at the top of the list. I bring up homelessness in advance of Wednesday’s March for Housing at City Hall, tied to a modest proposal on that evening’s Santa Fe City Council agenda to amend the city’s regulations as they relate to accessory dwelling units—casitas—to try to open up more housing here. No one is arguing this change will solve Santa Fe’s housing crisis; rather, it’s one small measure on a list of recommended actions from the Santa Fe Housing Action Coalition (santafehousingaction. org), including funding the City of Santa Fe’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund; various zoning updates; streamlining development review; and creating a city land

donation program, among others. These recommendations grew out of the Santa Fe Advancing Affordable Housing and Livable Neighborhoods Advisory Group. New Mexico Inter-Faith Housing Chief Operating Officer Daniel Werwath, who served on that task force and is a steering committee member for the Santa Fe Housing Action Coalition, tells me he doesn’t see technology solving a basic supply-and-demand problem. “That’s the part we can’t outrun,” he says. The casita amendment is a small measure that “should be the most palatable for a place like Santa Fe.” If it can’t move forward, he asks, how can the city make real headway with its housing crisis? That crisis also is easily quantified. The city is short at least 3,000 affordable rental units. Seventy-three percent of renter households are paying more than they can afford. Rental rates have risen 46% in the last five years. “It’s absurd to me that we’re weighing the idea of whether or not parking impacts people’s neighborhoods as more important than people actually having shelter,” Werwath says. He’s hoping a strong turnout for the march and hearing, along with cogent testimony to sway the Council into this “first step.” Werwath says he does see opportunity for regulatory disruption. For example, “[allowing] higher densities on land so you’re spreading your cost of land, your fixed cost of infrastructure across more units: That creates affordability.” But as far as proptech goes, he says, “If someone creates an app to overcome NIMBYs and helps local government officials make data-based decisions in the interest of long-term economic health and wealth of their community, maybe that would change something.”

DISH IT OUT If you don’t like animals, we don’t like you. In all seriousness, they’re really the best, particularly assistance dogs. There simply is no metric by which we might measure their emotional and professional impact on the lives of those who need them, but there is much we might do to aid in their training and eventual jobs. Take upcoming event Signature Dishes: Artists Paint for Paws at Santa Fe Clay. A veritable who’s-who of Santa Fe artistic talent donated their time and skills to create dozens of paintpaint ed plates under the curation of local artist Toby Morfin, and the proceeds from the auction of said plates this Friday goes to local nonprofit Assistance Dogs of the West. Get buying. (Alex De Vore) Signature Dishes: Artists Paint for Paws: 5 pm Friday June 28. Santa Fe Clay, 545 Camino de la Familia, 984-1122.

EVENT SAT/29 ARTIVISM Three of our favorite collectives on Earth—two of which happen to be local—join forces this weekend at the intersection of arts and activism. Santa Fe’s Alas de Agua and Three Sisters Collective team up with members from Peruvian street printmaking collective Amapolay for an evening of live art-making, music, food and information on why when the power of creation is put in the hands of the people, good things happen. Print on your own shirts or provided paper for free, catch an artist’s market, make seed balls and hear the dulcet jams of bands Tesuque Revolt and Novalima. All of these people give so much of themselves, let’s show ’em some support. (ADV) Celebrating Art, Music and Activism: 6 pm Saturday June 29. Free. Railyard Plaza, Market and Alcaldesa Streets.

READING SUN/30 YES INTO THE BLOSSOMS We mentioned just the other week the awesome (free!) community poetry workshop currently taught on Tuesdays by local poet Elizabeth Jacobson, and told you to pick up her book, Not Into the Blossoms and Not Into the Air. So imagine our pleasant surprise when a late-night email over the weekend announced Jacobson as the next Santa Fe Poet Laureate, now tasked with even more community-building initiatives and the general goal of making our city fall in love with poetry all day, every day. No bigs. Congratulate Jacobson as she reads this weekend with fellow poet Sherwin Bitsui, a noted professor at the Institute of American Indian Arts’ writing masters program, and Malena Mörling, a highly praised Swedish-born poet and translator. To learn more about the poet laureate program, head to santafenm.gov/poet_laureate. (Charlotte Jusinski) Elizabeth Jacobson, Sherwin Bitsui & Malena Mörling: 2 pm Sunday June 30. Free. op.cit Books, DeVargas Center, 157 Paseo de Peralta, 428-0321.
EVENT MON/1
Total Eclipse of the Soul Things are about to get chaotic Solar eclipses are considered times of chaotic energy in astrology, and one is supposed to occur on Tuesday July 2. “Not only might you feel powerless because the literal source of our power—the sun—is being eclipsed,” Abby Dobbs tells SFR, “it also can cause a lot of confusion because you may find that in general, people tend to act on their emotions during eclipses.” An independent yoga instructor and energy worker, Dobbs is set to host a ceremony in preparation for the eclipse alongside her husband, Vedic astrologer Stephen Kohn, the night before. Dobbs and Kohn plan to hold a discussion on the astronomy of the eclipse and then about the Vedic (Hindu) calendar to give attendees a look at the divination system guiding the ceremony and an idea of what exactly is happening. “In Vedic astrology … the moon is considered our subjective, emotionalfeeling nature, and the sun is considered our deep-soul nature and our individual empowerment,” Dobbs explains. “So when the sun, our soul, is eclipsed by the moon, our deep, emotional nature, the idea is that our connection to ourselves
and our souls is shattered and overshadowed.” Because of the vitriolic energy present during eclipses, astrology experts advise that people not go out during an eclipse or look directly at one—in case the possibility of permanent eye damage weren’t enough of a reason to avoid that. One also shouldn’t sign contracts or make major life decisions, because those actions often aren’t done with a level head. So what can you do? Dobbs says eclipses are opportunities for introspection and intention-setting, so she’ll guide attendees at her event through meditation and journaling to help them look inside themselves. This should help attendees internally discuss what they’ve learned and what the newfound lessons mean going forward. Dobbs primarily wants to educate the community. “Pretty much we’re taking people through a process of, ‘How is this eclipse affecting you?’” (Nicole Madrid) SOLAR ECLIPSE CEREMONY 7:30 pm Monday July 1. $10.

Awareness of Funk
A dive into Shake Alert’s versatile, funky sound

oes Santa Fe bring the funk? The Sticky rocks it often, the Family Stone toured through and George Clinton is coming to New Mexico later this summer for Meow Wolf’s Taos Vortex festival, so those add some points— otherwise, it’s a genre I don’t come across nearly as much as I’d like. But to find that Santa Fe has a funk band that combines Afrobeat, hip-hop and jazz influences without muddying their sound, and they’re good to boot? That’s a treat I was not expecting until I heard Shake Alert. The band is poised with its upcoming debut album Aango (recorded with producer Kabby Kabakoff at Kabby Sound and mastered by Will Dyar at Hills Audio) to prove that booty-shaking is alive and well in our dance-crazy town. Lead vocalist KC Dutcher, an accomplished MC in his own right under the moniker K.Dutch, declares the upcoming album as the band’s first definitive statement, a confident presentation of their catalog to date with a fully realized sound. “We have been working slowly for pretty much four years,” says Dutcher. “These are the songs that have stuck.” Shake Alert borrows from an expansive range of styles, and to call it solely funk music doesn’t quite paint the whole picture. What immediately hits the ear is the rhythm, which is pinned down with scientifically precise
of Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, whose music was his activism, Dutcher is not content to let the listener simply glaze over while the music plays on; while not overtly political, there is a conscience at the core of his lyrical style. “It’s definitely deliberate,” Dutcher explains. “In general, as a lyricist, I tend to lean toward conscious subjects and want to use my voice in this way to raise awareness, get people thinking about things.” The song “Long Road” won’t be confused with a Rage Against the Machine anthem, but it does touch on many of the ills of trying to operate as a human being stuck in the gears of an often inhumane political machine. It’s a number that stands out with a slightly more somber tone and touches on spikier corners of funk with some nods to the transcendence of fusion giants like Mahavishnu Orchestra. It’s a dense sound, but danceable, fun and demanding of close inspection, multiple listens. Shake Alert borrows from genres that are easy to overlook as dance music but have always had more to say than casual listeners might initially realize—and with enough hooks to keep the party going if that’s all you’re looking for. A few errant copies of Aango may find their way to the band’s upcoming Zephyr gig, but the album won’t be officially available until July 11 on the band’s Bandcamp page (shakealertmusic.bandcamp.com), just ahead of a July 13 gig at the Railyard where physical copies will be widely available to the masses.
Shake Alert, the newest members in Santa Fe’s funk contingent, has a debut album on the horizon.
groove by drummer Dave Wayne, one of Santa Fe’s musical treasures as far as his involvement in dozens of excellent projects dedicated to almost every shade of jazz, fusion and beyond. The rhythm section continues, however, with the inclusion of dual percussionists flanking Wayne’s kit work. Dave Shaffer, who played on the record but has since left Santa Fe, and Ramon Lovato provide a richness and variety to the foundation of Shake Alert’s funkiness that allows it to venture into territories of Afrobeat as well as many different styles of Latin music. This three-pronged percussive approach supercharges the music. Basic structures are written primarily by keys-player Joseph Salack, guitarist Kevin Sennott and bassist Neal Denton before the rest of the band adds their own tones and influence.
Salack mostly plays the Fender Rhodes electric piano, an iconic instrument in the long history of fusion that adds a buzzy coolness to the proceedings. Sennott’s guitar work channels a few different icons, from early-era Carlos Santana to Al Di Meola, for an active yet restrained style through which Sennott knows when to let loose and when to simply reinforce the rest of the players. Denton’s nimble bass lines apply a near-perfect bounciness to the music, no easy task in any funk-adjacent band. Dutcher, who joined the band after many of the songs were already written, is tasked with doing his own thing, and his voice sounds confident whether rapping, singing or some combination of the two. And while all of the music is enjoyable, Dutcher also provides a much needed lyrical point of view that elevates the material. Similarly to the elder voice

Joy Harjo BRIAN CLAYTON
The Santa Fe Human Rights Alliance has an almost entirely new board, and Michael Davis has served as president since January. Originally from South Carolina, Davis moved to Santa Fe in 2016, and he hopped on the phone with SFR recently to chat about the first Santa Fe Pride under his watch. Davis says that in his new role, he hopes to move beyond simply holding a parade every year—he’s got bigger plans. (Will Costello) You and the entire board are new as of January. What are the pros and cons of that? You’ve got new ideas but everyone’s kind of new at the job. In all fairness, there is one board member that has been part of the board for centuries—our secretary, Calvin Fields—but everyone else is new. I think one of the biggest contributing factors that gave us momentum this time, as opposed to previous administrations, is that we do have kind of a new take on how boards work. Number one, we didn’t have the legacy of two or three or five or six years on the board. We all have our first board experience together. So in many ways, that allowed us to critically think about how we’re being perceived. And number two, we started out with a question: Why? You know, why Pride? Why a parade? We spent some time in that space, asking ourselves, ‘Why do we need a Pride Parade?’ And that began a journey of redefining what we’re doing with HRA in contrast to what the vision is. What are we actually putting out? Are we just one big formal event planning committee, or do we have more to say?

(UNLESS THERE IS AN EVENT)
What kind of new stuff are you trying to say? How do you move beyond just being an event planning committee? We feel like we need to get beyond just the Pride parade. So we partnered with local businesses, we partnered with Meow Wolf, they have an amazing kind of queer art therapy program they’re running down there. We’re also trying to partner with colleges that have LGBT youth groups, we’re trying to partner with local high schools. I’m not saying we get out of the parade organization, but we’re letting our vision speak towards those programs and then we just happen to put on the parade every year to celebrate those programs. What are HRA and Pride doing to create a welcoming atmosphere? Gay and lesbian people are accepted in the LGBTQIA+ community, but what about the other letters in that acronym? That’s a really good question, and that was one of our first questions at our first board meeting. We asked ourselves the same thing. We are the Human Rights Alliance, we’re not the LGBTQ rights alliance, were not the trans rights alliance. We have to look at it from a social movement standpoint. We can’t isolate ourselves to one demographic. We’re shifting that and getting into more of an ally space, more of a legislative space, more of a collaborative space, especially when it comes to non-LGBT folks. Our obstacle is just getting some serious buy-in from the community.

catering, pop-ups and special events, all taking place in shared spaces and private homes. Karels honed her craft as a child, learning to cook after her family left Vietnam in 1975, eventually settling in Lansing, Michigan. Both her parents worked, and to help out, she and her siblings took on additional household responsibilities. “No one ever knew what they were getting when it was my turn to cook,” Karels tells SFR. “They complained I always had to ‘jazz things up’ when really, I was just learning to adapt new ingredients for those we couldn’t get in Michigan—which were many.” Karels’ cooking was also inspired by her grandmother, who attended the University of Michigan to become the first female pharmacist in Vietnam. “She also dabbled at the Cordon Bleu in Paris, so was always making things like bouillabaisse, croissants and crepes,” remembers Karels. When her parents decided to open a restaurant while she was in high school, Karels was a natural choice to be its pastry chef. Her passion for food and the sharing of cultures, ideas and commonalities through the kitchen has never wavered, and it’s certainly catching on in Santa Fe. “The Santa Fe culinary scene is getting more dynamic, and I like exploring ways to honor the distinctiveness of a culture while welcoming people’s experiences of the bigger world,” she says. Which brings us back to the idea of Table 2-3-1. Karels, who specializes in many cuisines, is open to ideas for bringing them together. “It’s a concept that can so easily be actualized; say, Russian and Iranian or Jewish and Spanish. … What better opportunity to kick off a team meeting, corporate retreat or celebration? How great is it to connect through exploring differences? I’m open to any event or collaboration where we get to have fun with food.”

way to support an important community service. The premise behind Table 2-3-1 is “2 cultures, 3 ingredients, 1 amazing meal.” Chefs Hue-Chan Karels, chef-owner of Open Kitchen (openkitchenevents. com), and David Sellers, recent champ of the New Mexico Cocktails & Culture Festival’s Taco Wars, paired up for a three-course meal of Vietnamese and Italian cuisines, a pairing that seems almost impossible to pull off. But pull it off they did, with delicious, inventive couplings. For example, with the common ingredient of “noodles,” diners were treated to bún chạo tôm (lettuce wrap of grilled shrimp on sugarcane with rice vermicelli, fresh herbs and Vietnamese dipping sauce) and squid ink linguine with rock shrimp, Calabrese salami and red pepper. “When you do fusion, you don’t honor the cuisine,” says Karels, creator of the concept. “But when approached this way, you honor what’s distinctive about two cultures through their commonalities without losing the flavor of both. Take
noodles, for example. They originated in China but are very common in both Vietnamese and Italian cuisine; a common ingredient whose expression took very different routes.” I wrote briefly about Karel’s Open Kitchen this spring (April 2: “Food Improvement”) as a new kid on the block of local cooking schools but, in reality, it’s not so new and it’s much more than cooking classes. Though Karels has lived in Santa Fe for five years and recently introduced Open Kitchen to Santa Fe, it was once a brick-and-mortar operation. Karels, looking to combine her 25 years of business compliance consulting with her love of cooking, originally launched Open Kitchen in Washington, DC, in 2009. “The idea was a community kitchen incubator, offering kitchen space for rent as well as someone to help create successful small business models; it ended up being an expansive space with a bistro, CSA drop-offs [and] pick-ups, cooking classes, private event space and more,” Karels explains. “Open Kitchen married my love of both cooking and consulting—it also reflected my passion for connecting.” And connect she did. “There were no boundaries between people and food at Open Kitchen,” Karels adds. “The kitchen was literally open to the room and everyone got to eat, ask questions, learn, and leave with a sense of how to do something they may not have known how to do before, or maybe were intimidated by.” Though Open Kitchen’s DC location came to an end as Karels moved away, she realized how much she missed the concept—and how well it would work in Santa Fe. “I made the conscious decision to just live in Santa Fe, stop traveling so much for work, and re-create Open Kitchen in my new community,” she says. It’s Open Kitchen 2.0 with all the same intentions, minus one big thing: a physical space. Karels instead shares her love of food through cooking classes,

The Raft Review
BEST MOVIE EVER
Set adrift with social anthropology
10 9
BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

In the early 1970s, Mexican social anthropologist Santiago Genovés was onboard a plane that wound up hijacked. According to his journals, as a scientist who primarily studied human violence, this was as fascinating an event as could have possibly happened to him. Afterwards, Genovés conceived of an experiment wherein he would gather different types of men and women, set them adrift aboard an isolating raft during a three-month transatlantic voyage and, if his hypotheses were true, gain insight into whether violence is ingrained or learned. In practice, not much actually happened onboard the raft Acali, save a bizarre media blitz that focused on sexual what-if scenarios. Findings, it turns out, were inconclusive at best, unusable at worst, and Genovés ultimately slipped into a mild form of dementia, turning the crew against him rather than one another as he’d hoped. Documentarian Marcus Lindeen revisits the Acali in The Raft, a bit of a records update and a bit of a reunion for surviving members of the voyage. Lindeen goes so far as to rebuild a scale replica of the Acali on a soundstage, allowing the original

members of the fateful experiment to explore it once more and trigger long-dormant memories or speak plainly together for the first time in more than 40 years. These bits are indeed interesting, and probably quite cathartic for those who were there. Through a combination of wonderfully preserved footage from the original experiment and modern-day conversations, a picture begins to unfold. In attempts to cause rifts between genders, Genovés placed women in the leadership roles and fostered sexual envy at every turn. Eventually, however, he became so obsessed with coming to predetermined conclusions about confrontation, aggression and violence that his ego drove him to the brink of cruelty and, interestingly, physical sickness. Elsewhere, other than a painful display of primitive violence against a shark,
the subjects disproved his theories at almost every turn—right up until they began contemplating Genovés’ murder. Lindeen only explores this concept superficially, however (and as is easily found online, no murders occurred). Still, it might have been interesting to dig deeper into the motivations behind secret meetings spurred by Genovés’ overbearing methods. In the end, there’s something to be said for how people come together, but the Acali’s data certainly didn’t add anything meaningful to the age-old question of why we fight. Instead, and perhaps this is the point, we learn about resiliency and fortitude. It’s just not particularly fun or worth getting there.

+ FAILS AND MAJORS IMPRESS; THE MUSIC
- NOT FOR THE IMPATIENT
There was probably a time in San Francisco when the everyman and everywoman and every-enby could make their way. But that was so long ago, nobody can remember. The dotcom world took over, of course, and the City by the Bay descended into the unaffordable at best, the downright ludicrous at worst; a recent study found that median rent cost had surpassed $3,500. But what of the natives and the non-tech folk? The people of color and the middle and lower classes? They’re shoved further away from the heart of San Francisco daily, if they can stay at all, and freshman filmmakers Jimmie Fails and Joe Talbot have a thing or two to say about that. The Last Black Man in San Francisco is like a love/hate letter to the city from Fails and Talbot, both natives of the area. Their version of their hometown is long since gone, however, replaced by newcomers with more money than heart and a rapidly changing energy

that is unrecognizable to its most steadfast denizens. Fails basically plays himself, a young man living with his best friend Mont (Jonathan Majors, White Boy Rick) and his grandfather (Danny Glover) on the outskirts of the Bay. He longs to reclaim the one-time family home, a massive Victorian purportedly built by his grandfather in the 1940s and lost in the ’90s. With his family scattered, he and Mont visit the house regularly, touching up the paint, making plans to clean the garden and, when it winds up vacated, squatting inside and reclaiming the space. Fails and Talbots’ script is smart and subtle in its exposing of hard realities. There is no preaching or beating of the chest here; rather, the things that happen happen quietly, without fanfare, like the events of our own real lives. It is not fantastical or overwrought, instead clever and nuanced, particularly with Mont, a gentle soul, playwright and artist who’d follow Jimmie to the ends of the earth if he asked. Fails impresses as well with his tender portrayal of a dreamer type whose priorities were skewed so long ago, he can barely remember why he made them. Peripheral characters provide context and motive, but without feeling relegated to expositional devices; each plays a vital part, each represents another endangered part of CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

OF HEMSWORTH
The appeal of Chris Hemsworth continues to elude me in Men in Black: International, a tired reboot of the exhausted popcorn movie franchise about aliens and the government agents who hunt them. The temptation to make a Meh in Black joke at this point is overwhelming indeed, but we’re trying to run a classy operation here. Hemsworth takes over the role of veteran Agent M from Tommy Lee Jones, and that’s the movie’s biggest problem—Jones’ deadpan attitude and delivery were a critical fuel source in the first three films, which maintained a dry comic quality even as the sequel films gradually declined. MIB has always been a second-tier comic book series anyway, but its wry sense of itself was its distinguishing characteristic, and that was only jazzed up by the undeniable comic chemistry between Jones and Will Smith. Such attitude and chemistry are largely absent in this new installation, which brings aboard Tessa Thompson (Hemsworth’s costar in Thor: Ragnarok) as the agency’s newest Person in Black. The film tosses in a couple of throwaway jokes to explain away the gender dilemma and they’re pretty good, actually, thanks to the reliable comic instincts of Emma Thompson, here MIB’s big boss. The Thompson twins are, in fact, the film’s greatest assets; Tessa and Emma have the funniest scenes, individually and together, and each brings a kind of poise that plays nicely against the frantic direction by F Gary Gray (Straight Outta Compton). They never quite replicate Jones’ deadpan counterpoint maneuvers, but they at least understand the value of them. So much of the comedy in this franchise pivots on attitude, on the characters and their various reactions to the weirdness playing out around them. Hemsworth never finds an effective frequency for his Agent M, sadly, and he flatlines gag after gag with overdone posturing and oversold charm. He does,

Story-wise, it’s the usual routine: Aliens threaten Earth, the MIB mobilize, CGI monsters are dispatched, boss fight at the end. The film’s International tag refers to its various exotic locales—Morocco, Italy, London, a fake Paris— but there’s a sheen of flop sweat toward the end as the movie tries desperately to distract you from the inescapable facts: You’ve already seen this movie, and it was better the first time, the second time and the third time.

+ ALL-STAR BRITISH CAST; LIGHTING
- OVERSTUFFED PLOT
Recovering English majors will find a lot to love with All Is True, a surprisingly fun and imaginative family drama chronicling the later days of William Shakespeare. Kenneth Branagh directs and plays the lead, which is as it should be—after a lifetime of transposing Shakespeare’s work for modern audiences, Branagh has earned the right to finally portray the Bard himself. The story opens as the Globe Theater burns down in 1613, essentially ending Shakespeare’s professional life. Retiring to his home in StrafordUpon-Avon, the playwright finds simmering family drama. Several dramas, actually: His daughters are mired in small-town scandals and his wife Anne (Judi Dench … Dame Judi Dench) has been harboring nuclear-grade resentments. The film thereafter contains numerous surprises. For one thing, it’s funny. The dialogue, meanwhile, is crisp and clever; the jokes sly, which makes one realize what thin gruel we typically get in comedic writing these days. Also watch for innovative lighting techniques with candles, a puzzle cinematographers have been trying to crack for 100 years; someone apparently figured it out (see also The Favourite). The family intrigue clicks up another notch when Ian McKellen (Sir Ian McKellen) appears, inevitably somehow, as a significant figure from Shakespeare’s past. McKellen and Branagh share a scene of mischief and warmth as the two old rogues delight in reciting Shakespeare’s most famous sonnet. The theater veterans are working on about 17 different levels in this scene and, for some, it’s bound to be a thrill ride. In fact, all of the dialogue is multivalent,

The script by Ben Elton (of The Young Ones fame!) is, in and of itself, a testament to dense Shakespearean storytelling, though the third act gets awfully speedy and finally spins itself to death as it jams in dubious mystery and progressive revisionism. There’s even a ghost story in this thing. But by the end, we’re pleasantly dizzy from the sustained charm offensive and All is True winds up a generous piece of work from a crack squad of British storytelling veterans. (GM)

GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS

+ INCREDIBLE BATTLES; NOSTALGIA - CHEESY; FAR TOO MANY HINTS OF THE NEXT FLICK’S PLOT
Make way for your favorite movie monster and pals to emerge once again with Godzilla: King of the Monsters, and good grief these guys are a menace! The days of actors in rubber suits trampling over cardboard sets—or even that bad CGI iguana in NYC circa ’99—are all thankfully relics of the past. A sequel to 2014’s Godzilla, the newest entry takes lessons from its predecessor’s lack of monster action, now packing so much in, you’ll worry a bathroom break will rob you of whatever’s on the horizon. Many of the film’s principal actors are recipients of film and television’s highest accolades; Emmys and Golden Globes and such, and their presence is mostly enough to carry weak dialogue or scenes of paper-thin exposition. Vera Farmiga (The Departed) and Kyle Chandler (Peter Jackson’s King Kong) are former spouses grieving the loss of their first child. But they’re also scientists, dammit, both with differing opinions of the creatures (or “Titans,” as the film calls them), and they take action accordingly. Their second child, played by Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown—a character created so a younger audience can have a relatable figure—is caught in the middle of the tug-of-war. Bradley Whitford, Sally Hawkins, Charles Dance, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Aisha Hinds and the great Ken Watanabe fill out the rest of the ensemble cast, and though their talents are certainly underused, it’s good to see them in something so silly that almost anything can be forgiven. Besides, one doesn’t go to a Kaiju movie for the narrative structure or in search of moving performances, but for the spectacle—and we certainly find the spectacular here. With monsters front and center, the visual splendor is quite satisfying. Godzilla and Mothra glow in cool notes of neon blues and greens, while others like King Ghidorah, the three-headed
one, accompany violent electric storms saturated in rich yellows and oranges. We see clear shots of the famous monsters battling with coherent editing and no awkward shaky cam close-ups; when the Titans clash, the sound assaults your senses, rupturing eardrums. Even the soundtrack adds to the successful mixing of the effects, accentuating the artificial carnage. But don’t worry, there’s plenty of stereotypical lens flare to distract from the amusingly fake sets. If nothing else, your inner child will love all of it. Although the fanboy cheese is present in every frame, it only tries your patience occasionally. One too many hints were dropped for the next big monster movie, for example, and expect to see your favorite ape thrown into the mix with a wink. In the meantime, leave your analytical sensibilities at the door and enjoy the familiar creatures as they go boom. (Matthew K Gutierrez)
