WOODSY PROPAGANDA As Cate Moses points out, Forest Service propaganda about “decades of fire suppression” is wrong. But her idea that we must learn to live with “natural” fires is also wrong. And the argument about whether “historically” high-severity fires were rare in the Southwest is irrelevant. The Forest Service was created in 1905 to protect the forests, not burn them up, and its policy, vigorously defended by Aldo Leopold, was to extinguish all fires quickly if at all humanly possible. The Forest Service abandoned that policy in 1972 under pressure from the timber industry, with predictable results. The last 45 years of letting natural fires burn and conducting more and more prescribed burns has been catastrophic. What has happened to common sense? Where are the environmentalists, the ornithologists, the global warming activists? Everybody seems to have forgotten that fire is fire, and whether started by lightning, or accidentally or intentionally by humans, it looks the same, burns the same, produces the same smoke, releases the same carbon monoxide, destroys the same trees and wipes out the same populations of birds and wildlife.

NEWS, MAY 31: “TVMLA”
GARAGES ‘O’ FOOD I live a block from the market [in Venice Beach]. This article does a disservice to me and my neighbors who object to the misuse of this building. The old Kim’s wasn’t a “dive,” it was a corner market carrying the kinds of groceries you suddenly realize you’ve run out of (cat food, beer, milk). As such it served the neighborhood well. ... While we may find the idea, the food, the “vibe” of this market attractive, the point your article misses is it is not an appropriate location. There is no parking lot to accommodate the cars that a restaurant would bring in, straining the already-scarce street parking in the area. The noise from the restaurant patio would disturb the neighbors, who did not bargain for a restaurant in their residential neighborhood. Zoning laws
exist to protect all of us, and this business is trying to get around them. We know exactly what they are “trying to do there.” I do not for a minute buy that [Alicia] Searle is confident that the neighbors will come around, we have already caught them trying to illegally turn their garages into kitchens (another zoning violation) and we are tired of their lies and manipulations.

LETTERS say about funding ¡Youthworks!. The New Mexican’s story (May 22 edition) about the League’s study of economic development dealt largely with one of five background papers that the study committee wrote—the background paper that dealt with the history of the city’s economic development fund. This paper did not state that any recipient should or should not receive funding. What it did say was, “It would be useful for the city to consider how broadly ‘economic development’ should be defined for the purposes of making Economic Development Fund expenditures.” ... It then pointed out that, “Should the city decide to spend its economic development funds to achieve these narrower goals, it would probably need to finance some activities currently financed from the EDF from other city funds. For example, ¡Youthworks!, which has received $1,192,090 over the course of 8 years, the second-largest award of EDF funds to a single organization, might instead get support from Public Works.” The League appreciates the recognition given to our work, but we want to assure readers of The Reporter that we have not tried to pick economic winners and losers, nor will we going forward. We look forward to using our positions to support sensible government investment in local economic development, by focusing mainly on the processes, including planning and oversight, as well as transparency in operations.

COVER, MAY 31: “MORTALLY MATERNAL”
END THE WAIT Thank you to the Reporter and to Elizabeth Miller for this excellent article, and to Anson Stevens-Bollen for the beautiful (and heartrending) cover art. I also want to emphasize that midwives and physicians are united in disagreeing emphatically with the governor’s stance against the maternal mortality review board. Our state and our country need a multifaceted approach to the tragedy of maternal mortality, not denial of the problem. Women deserve to have respectful, easily accessible care from midwives and physicians who have the resources they
need and the systemic support to implement care that is both culturally congruent and evidence-based. And we need the public health data to be able to tease out the underlying causes of both mortality and near-misses so that we can address those causes vigorously and effectively. What are we waiting for?
NANCY L BRANNIN SANTA FE
HEADED TO DARK AGES? I feel horrified to be transported by this article back to the 1970’s before [the Health Resources and Services Administration] began its push to bring infant mortality into the range of the developed world. Community clinics were funded and birth centers. Until the late 1980’s and early ’90s, state-operated public health field offices around New Mexico provided free prenatal care until the end of pregnancy when women would be referred to the doctors who would provide labor and delivery care. The field offices also provided free Well Child Care which assured follow-up care for new moms. The state infant mortality rate fell so low in those years that we did not earn extra points when applying for HRSA programs. From those achievements to these data is an indictment of conscious state and federal policy to turn the War on Poverty into a War on the Poor. This article reflects back two decades of financial assaults on low-income and poor women, especially women of color. A correlation between changing federal economic support programs from Aid To Families with Dependent Children to Temporary Assistance for Needy Families plays a role. New Mexico was one of only a handful of states that reduced financial support for women with children since the 2008 economic collapse. In its cruelty, New Mexico gives a woman with 2 children [less than] $390 a month in cash assistance, a criminally low amount. This problem is fixable. But it needs government at all levels to provide social, economic and health justice.

Unsafe Spaces Immigration advocates reporting an uptick in Santa Fe ICE arrests at local courthouses are building a database to monitor the impact
BY AARON CANTÚ a a r o n @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
P
ublic defenders and immigration advocates in Santa Fe are attempting to systematically log the impact of President Trump’s immigration enforcement orders on the state’s court system. The foot soldiers in the effort include local public defenders, who represent defendants in both the First District Judicial Court as well as the Santa Fe Magistrate Court. According to Morgan Wood, district defender for the First District, there has been an increase since January in US Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents waiting outside the magistrate court to apprehend undocumented defendants after their court appointments. She estimates she’s seen this take place three or four times in the last six months, and says other public defenders have observed even more instances. “I’ve seen them and other attorneys have seen them sitting there in the parking lot,” Wood tells SFR. “This is happening on DWI docket days, and targeting defendants that are at all different stages [of criminal proceedings], including arraignments and dismissals.” She says her office is beginning to catalog the number of their defendants who’ve been picked up by ICE. One particular instance stands out in Wood’s memory. On or around the morning of April 11, Wood says, ICE agents in three SUVs waited outside the magistrate courthouse while Judge David Segura went through the DWI docket. An agent was also seated in the lobby outside the courtroom. Segura instructed the agent sitting inside to leave, and other witness-
es say that the SUVs exited the parking lot roughly an hour after they were spotted. However, Wood says, the ICE agents later apprehended at least three people after they left the courthouse. One was married to a US citizen and released. The fate of the others is unknown. Segura says he doesn’t know of similar ambushes beyond this one instance and possibly another, and says it would be a stretch to conclude they’re increasing.
But he also says it’s new for ICE agents to hang around the building. They hadn’t done that since he asked the department’s regional supervisor to stop sending agents into the courthouse about four years ago. It’s unclear how the agency targets particular court proceedings. Wood believes that ICE agents are either viewing dockets through the Secured Odyssey Public Access or are being tipped off by somebody who has access to the dockets. She’s especially suspicious of the Santa Fe County DWI compliance monitoring program, which functions
as a probation-like sentence for people convicted of DWI. Public defenders have seen agents around the magistrate courthouse primarily on days that DWI cases are heard, she says. Lupe Sanchez, the compliance coordinator for the Santa Fe County DWI Program, denied that his office currently works with ICE but said they had previously been in contact with the agency late last year, after the election. “We’ve had occasions where ICE agents have called and requested information regarding clients,” Sanchez tells SFR. “We did have one occasion where we verified we had a client, the name of the individual and that he was under our supervision. But that was all we did: verify. They asked, ‘Can they report in and we’ll pick them up?’ And we said no.” Conflicting accounts over whether ICE is, in fact, seeking out people through New Mexico’s justice system come amid a broader national crackdown on undoc-
ly aggregating information to reveal the impact that these practices are having on the local and state court system, including not just apprehensions but also increased numbers of bench warrants filed and declining rates of domestic violence reported to authorities—which could indicate that undocumented people are afraid to interface with the justice system. “We can’t just be reactive,” says Allegra Love, an attorney and director of the Santa Fe Dreamers Project. “We have to start taking an aggressive stance, and that will happen through data.” If the data suggests that fears of ICE are deterring people from the justice system in New Mexico, it would be easier to push the state’s Supreme Court to take a stance against federal authorities using legal institutions as honey traps, says Tess Wilkes, another attorney at the project. She hopes that New Mexico will join at least six other states—California, Maine, Maryland, New Jersey, Oregon, and Washington— where state attorneys general or ANSON STEVENS-BOLLEN top-ranking justices have formally asked the federal government to stop frequenting local courthouses. “There would be no authority to tell ICE it has to do something, but a court could make a policy that, for example, when any law enforcement officer enters a court room, they have to sign a book,” says Wilkes. Such measures could increase accountability in instances when, for example, it’s later discovered that an ICE agent arrested someumented immigrants. The agency said body at a courthouse without a warrant. in a report from May that the number of The fact that such things could be people arrested for allegedly being in the happening in Santa Fe shows how difficountry illegally had risen 37.6 percent cult it is to shield people from the deporfrom a year prior, from 30,028 to 41,318. tation machine even in a self-described In March, Gov.

Kiwanis takes over Fourth of July fireworks, moves event to Santa Fe Place Mall

t’s going to be a much quieter Fourth of July in the neighborhoods around Ragle Park and Santa Fe High School. After years of hosting the city’s Independence Day fireworks display and concerts, the event is moving to the Santa Fe Place Mall and nearby Villa Linda Park. Johnny Taylor isn’t wild about that idea. “We hung an American flag out where anyone could get at it. We never had a bit of trouble,” he tells SFR from his doorstep on Camino San Patricio, just south of Ragle Park. He and his wife used to sit in the backyard and enjoy the fireworks from the best seats just outside of the house. Taylor says his cul-de-sac was packed with cars on the Fourth of July, but 45 minutes after the fireworks were done, it was quiet. He’s had more issues with post-game drinking at the park after adult softball league contests, he says. And he doesn’t plan to make the short trip to the mall. There are other neighbors who are happy to see the event change venues—a woman says “it’s a good thing” through her security door before declining an interview—and the city is hoping it has found a way to make the celebration more convenient for more people. When the Boys and Girls Club told the city in April that it had decided against handling the show this year, officials had to scramble to find another group willing to take on the event that typically draws between 3,000 and 4,000 people to the park—and countless more watching from their backyards or other nearby parks. The task came with a $29,999 check from the city, but the Boys and Girls Club has said in the past that combined with a $5 parking fee, the massive undertaking typically netted only a few thousand dollars for the nonprofit group. On Wednesday, the City Council agreed to boost that payment by $5,000 for the Kiwanis Club. Organizers say the additional money will go toward more security for the event. The group plans to do away with the parking charge that, especially after the event was moved from the high school
stadium to Ragle Park, often resulted in clogged streets in nearby neighborhoods during the holiday. “For the neighborhoods, it makes a huge difference,” Santa Fe Mayor Javier Gonzales tells SFR. “Having to walk through streets and having lots of high car traffic in neighborhoods, it was a lot of hardship.” While the mayor says homeowners generally tolerated the intrusion well, he thinks the new location has the potential to be better. Food trucks will be stationed between the east side of the mall and the north end of the 11acre Villa Linda Park. Crowds should still be able to wander freely and set up picnic spots as they’ve been able to do at Ragle Park.
It’s something we have a fair amount of experience doing. -Ray Sandoval, Kiwanis event organizer
Kiwanis doesn’t expect the event to be a major fundraiser. “We just felt that it was part of our civic duty,” event organizer Ray Sandoval says of the afternoon concert that ends with Santa Fe’s signature July Fourth fireworks display just after dark. “It’s something we have a fair amount of experience doing.” The Kiwanis produce the burning of Zozobra every year, an event that draws tens of thousands to the city’s Fort Marcy

Park. Sandoval tells SFR that experience helped inform the extra $5,000 to better protect what he calls the “firing zone”— the spot where the mortar-type fireworks are shot into the sky. “Last year, they had a pretty significant delay in the show because there were people who had made their way into the firing zone,” Sandoval explains. “You cannot fire if there are people in that zone, so the show had to wait.” The delay resulted in more overtime for city public safety crews, so Sandoval hopes the extra cost for the city up front will wash out on the back end of the fireworks display. Access to the mall and Villa Linda Park is also much easier with nearby Rodeo, Airport and Cerrillos roads. The city hopes that, too, will help keep overtime costs lower if police are able to clear the park and mall more quickly after the fireworks. Santa Fe Fire Marshal Reynaldo Gonzales says the new site will be better in some respects and more of a challenge in others. While the parking lot between the mall and the park provides a better launchpad for the aerial pyrotechnics, the nearby arroyo will be harder for fire trucks to access. “We’ll have to have hand crews,” Gonzales tells SFR outside City Council chambers. “It’s not uncommon for a
small fire to spark, but we’re able to attend to it.” Kiwanis had originally hoped to use the arroyo on the southeast side of the park to launch the display, but the cost to clear brush and keep crews positioned in the right places would likely be doubled. By using the parking lot, they can more easily keep a 300-foot perimeter around the launchpad. The group plans to retain the fireworks company for the show, Western Enterprises. The Oklahoma company also handles fireworks for Zozobra each September. “They’re just a natural fit because of this relationship over the past years,” Sandoval says. Kiwanis also has a relationship with mall management, which donated space inside the food court to let the group construct Zozobra in a more public location this year. Ultimately, Sandoval hopes that the event will feel more user-friendly to the community. He thinks easier parking, bigger roads around the site, better food and the same ability to spread out a blanket and spend a holiday evening outside is a winning combination. “We really want people to get out of their cars. We’re paying homage to the birth of our nation. This is a community event.”

hillip Armijo argued with his sister in her living room one day last spring. Before long, two Santa Fe police officers showed up to sort out the siblings’ squabble. No one had been injured, so there would be no arrests, the officers said, but maybe Armijo should leave for a while. As he tried to do so, a third officer, Anthony Currey, arrived. Currey had discovered a warrant for Armijo’s arrest, he told the 52-year-old as the two stood in the driveway. “He didn’t say anything to me about why I was being arrested,” Armijo says now, sitting in his lawyer’s Santa Fe office. “He just cuffed me and stuffed me.” Currey had the wrong guy. The name on the warrant: John Armijo, Phillip’s brother—who, by the time Currey motored toward the Santa Fe County jail on March 8, 2016, had been dead more than a year. Phillip Armijo says he showed Currey and jail staff three picture IDs. The officials were unmoved. “I slept on a concrete slab for three days,” he tells SFR. “I missed my midterms at Santa Fe Community College. I didn’t have money for a phone call, and no one would listen to me. It was degrading.” Someone finally paid attention to Armijo at his first court appearance on March 10, 2016. State District Judge T Glenn Ellington wrote that he had been “mistakenly arrested,” noted the two-and-a-half-year disparity between the brothers’ birth dates and ordered Armijo “immediately released.” For more than a year, a host of questions has swirled for Armijo: Did the Santa Fe Police Department investigate Currey? Was he disciplined? Had he been in trouble before? “I don’t know if anyone ever said anything to him at all,” Armijo says. “And I’d sure like to know if he’s done this to someone else, but I don’t.” That’s because the city of Santa Fe won’t tell him—or anyone else. Rick Sandoval, Armijo’s lawyer, put the city and Santa Fe County, which operates the jail, on notice six weeks later, filing a notice of intent to sue that doubled as a de facto citizen complaint against Currey and others. Now, they’re suing in federal court for alleged civil rights violations. In January, SFR requested under the New Mexico Inspection of Public Records Act (IPRA) all complaints filed against SFPD officers in 2016. The city provided 24 official complaints, notices of claim and
other correspondence alleging misconduct by officers from October 2015 to December 2016, including Armijo’s account of false arrest. Citizens’ allegations ranged from rudeness and wrongful apprehensions to reckless driving and filing false police reports to violent arrests resulting in life-threatening injuries. But the city refuses to say whether any of the officers involved were investigated or disciplined. Similarly, the city denied our requests for the disciplinary histories of the officer who fatally shot a man in Eldorado in April and for the police union president, an SFPD sergeant, who came under fire earlier this year after an SFR story about his incendiary Facebook posts disparaging Muslims, transgender people and others. Santa Fe officials believe such information amounts to “matters of opinion in personnel files,” meaning the city can keep them secret under IPRA, Assistant City Attorney Zach Shandler tells SFR. He says state and federal case law and language in the attorney general’s IPRA compliance guide put the city on solid legal footing. Further, releasing information about discipline for any city employee—not just police officers—could lead to defamation lawsuits. To prevail, employees would have to show that the city made a false claim. Records of discipline are true accounts of government action, Shandler concedes, but that wouldn’t necessarily stop someone from suing the city. “We want to eliminate that risk,” Shandler says. Good government and transparency groups in New Mexico say the city’s legal rationale is tenuous. They point to Santa Fe County, Bernalillo County, the city of Albuquerque and other governments around the state that take a 180-degree opposite view of the law. Officials in those places release disciplinary records and have come out none the worse for it. “If a law enforcement officer was fired or suspended or investigated or put on administrative leave, that’s a fact,” says Greg Williams, board president at the nonprofit New Mexico Foundation for Open Government (NMFOG). “That’s not a matter of opinion.” Even beyond the legal question, which Williams concedes is open for interpretation, hiding disciplinary records chips away at public trust, especially with police officers. “All they are doing, in this era where there’s all this police mistrust, is creating more of it,” he says. “The problem with secrecy is it creates suspicion, and it causes doubt as to whether the police department is being run correctly.”

Shandler declined to comment on the public policy implications of Santa Fe’s practice. He referred SFR to others within city government. No one from the police department would talk. Police Chief Patrick Gallagher refused multiple interview requests through a city spokesman, who sent a statement that did not address any of the questions SFR had for the chief. Sgt. Troy Baker, head of the Santa Fe Police Officers Association, did not respond to nine voicemails left on his cell phone. And Matt Ross, the city spokesman, did not respond to our request to interview Mayor Javier Gonzales or another official who could answer the questions Shandler would not. City Councilor Chris Rivera, a retired Santa Fe fire chief who chairs the Public Safety Committee, says police officers have a difficult, dangerous job, and they are entitled to certain privacy rights. He says he understands the city’s position. “But for the public, I’m sure they’d want as much transparency as possible,” Rivera tells SFR. “And from a policy perspective, at some point in the process—and I don’t know what point that is—that disciplinary information should become public.”
Across the nation, state laws governing the release of police disciplinary records run the gamut, according to a 2015 analysis by the public radio station WNYC. The station found that only 12 states make such records generally available to the public, while 23 keep them strictly confidential, including large states such as New York and California. Records in the remaining 15 states were available to varying degrees. New Mexico lies in that messy middle, but it appears to be the only state in which agencies rely on some version of a “matters of opinion” claim to keep citizens in the dark about police discipline. Across New Mexico, law enforcement agencies vary in their interpretation of whether IPRA compels them to release any information about officer discipline. SFR surveyed 11 police and sheriff’s departments; six provide at least some information, the other five do not. For example, Lt. Keith Elder tells SFR that the Sandoval County Sheriff’s Office maintains secrecy because discipline is a “personnel matter.” But the Doña Ana County Sheriff’s Office considers the fact of officer discipline to be releasable. “Anything that is considered a matter of opinion is not subject to inspection,” says Kelly Jameson, Doña Ana County Sheriff’s spokeswoman. Asked whether that includes officer discipline, Jameson replied: “No. That’s a fact.” For years, officials in Albuquerque struggled with that question. The city’s practice on releasing officer discipline bounced like a pinball from case to case until 2012. That’s when then-Albuquerque City Attorney David Tourek, under pressure from journalists and others, authored an inter-office legal memo saying information about final discipline for city employees should be released. “While
such disclosures may result in certain claims being brought against the city, there is no strict statutory prohibition against the disclosure of the fact of employee discipline.” The years of selective secrecy in Albuquerque led, in part, to a breakdown in internal accountability that became a focal point in a US Justice Department investigation that found systemic civil rights abuses by police in New Mexico’s largest city. Williams, the NMFOG board president, says the decision to release officer discipline in Albuquerque has had no “adverse effect” on the department there. “It has only had a positive benefit in terms of effective policing.” Albuquerque’s more recent practice sets up a stark juxtaposition with Santa Fe’s secrecy. APD officer Johnathan McDonnell crashed into a woman’s vehicle while en route to another call in April, killing her 6-year-old son and critically injuring her daughter, 9. Weeks later, the Albuquerque Journal published a story based on records released by the city that showed McDonnell had been reprimanded or suspended for a handful of “preventable crashes” and an unauthorized pursuit during his nine years on the department. The release of records and subsequent story enabled a public debate, Williams says, “which is why it’s especially important that we have this information.” Conversely, SFPD officer Jacquaan Matherson ran a red light and broadsided a Jeep on Feb. 15, 2016, according to records released to SFR after the request for citizen complaints. Both men in the Jeep were injured, and they have sued the city. But whether Matherson has a history of crashes or discipline remains concealed.
SFPD bicycle patrols cruised the streets last year on the Plaza during a protest at the Fiesta Entrada.
“My question for the city of Santa Fe would be this: Why don’t you want to release that information?” Williams says. “Why is it that you think the actions of your police department are not something the public should know about? “Police officers are accused all the time of excessive force or wrongful conduct, and there is unfortunately a certain unease in the public about how our police departments are carrying out their jobs. A lack of transparency makes that so much worse.” Rivera, the city councilor, says flagging public trust in police has been less of an issue in Santa Fe than in cities like Albuquerque. For the most part, he says, citizens believe SFPD has been forthcoming about its dealings. “I think people believe they’re doing a good job because we haven’t had those huge issues, those concerns about abuse and things like that,” he tells SFR. “But from a council perspective, it would still be nice to be as transparent as possible.” Rick Sandoval, Phillip Armijo’s lawyer, says he understands the difficult positions officers often face on the job. He used to defend police and corrections officers, first as an assistant city attorney in Albuquerque, then as in-house counsel at the state Risk Management Division. But in his client’s case, the city’s recalcitrance has led to exactly the sort of mistrust Rivera hopes to avoid in Santa Fe. When Sandoval approached the city attorneys about settling Armijo’s claims, they told him officer Currey did nothing wrong in arresting Armijo on his brother’s three-year-old warrant for failure to apCONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

the city of Albuquerque was breaking the law by releasing police discipline, he says: “I would doubt that they are breaking the law.” Carver says the Legislature could easily clear up the confusion. “The Legislature can step in and say exactly what it means—what is a matter of opinion and what is not,” he tells SFR. “They could do it in a sentence if they wanted that kind of openness.” Transparency around police conduct is particularly important, Carver says, agreeing with Williams of NMFOG. “We grant them the right to use deadly force, we grant them the right to break traffic laws when they’re racing to the scene of a crime,” he says. “If there is a history of an officer repeatedly coming under question, the public has a right to know.” The Legislature has been unwilling to take up the cause, Carver says, because of an abiding deference to law enforcement. “It’s politically explosive,” he says, “so you’d be running right up into the teeth of that, and no one wants to have that fight.” Another possibility would be for Attorney General Hector Balderas to step in and clarify whether officer discipline is public record. As the top enforcer of the records law, his office publishes the IPRA compliance guide. More recent editions of the guide include phrases from the Cox case that cities have read as cover to keep disciplinary records secret. Shandler says the guide forms part of Santa Fe’s rationale for withholding such records. But he said an advisory opinion
The lack of consistency from department to department on releasing officer discipline records and the vagaries in state statute and case law have endlessly frustrated journalists, citizens and even city officials in New Mexico. The “matters of opinion in personnel files” language in IPRA is broad enough for a wide range of interpretations, says Doug Carver, executive director of the nonprofit New Mexico Ethics Watch. Moreover, cities and counties around the state have used a seminal state Court of Appeals decision known as Cox vs. the Department of Public Safety as a reason to hold back disciplinary records. The court held in Cox that citizen complaints are public record and that whether they are kept in an officer’s personnel file makes no difference. But the opinion, written in 2010 by Appeals Court Judge Linda Vanzi, suggests that disciplinary records could be kept secret, although that was not an issue before the court in Cox. Shandler says the city of Santa Fe relies on a different state court decision and another case decided in federal court for its legal analysis. Shandler’s interview with SFR last month spotlights the difficulty. Assistant City Attorney Zach Shandler says people who He says disclosure “could complain about cops in Santa Fe can’t find out whether be” against the law. But moinvestigations were conducted or discipline doled out. ments later, asked whether LILIANA DILLINGHAM

pear in court. Currey’s police report does not mention Armijo’s insistence that the officer had picked up the wrong man. Sandoval says city attorneys declined to commit their defense of Currey to paper in “some crappy letter.” “That’s outrageous to me,” Sandoval says. “It’s not arguable that the officer did something wrong. But their response raises a lot of questions for me. There should have been an internal affairs review here. If there wasn’t, why not? And if there was, there should have been an effort to get both sides. My client was never interviewed, so if there was a review, it was neither complete nor competent.” Can Santa Fe citizens follow up on a complaint against an officer to find out whether there has been discipline or even an investigation? No, says Shandler, the assistant city attorney. “That’s the way the law currently is in our interpretation, yes,” he tells SFR.
Is it a secret everywhere?

fter SFR learned that the Santa Fe Police Department refuses to release records on police officer discipline, we surveyed other law enforcement agencies in New Mexico to learn about their policies. Officials in Albuquerque began formally releasing information about final discipline for city employees in 2012 under pressure from journalists and transparency advocates.
from Balderas would either solidify or sway the city’s position. In an interview with SFR on May 31, Balderas would not say whether he believes the fact of officer discipline amounts to a “matter of opinion.” During the interview, he handed the telephone to Deputy Attorney General Tania Maestas, who said both cities that release police discipline and those that don’t are following the law. Taking the phone back, Balderas said he would issue guidance on the matter if a city or state official made a formal request. The complaints obtained by SFR take a variety of forms. Some were submitted to SFPD’s internal affairs division by people who believed they’d been wronged. Some are notices of forthcoming litigation. Some are handwritten. Others are formal documents typed up by attorneys. Although police officers were not named in every complaint, three of them— Matthew Martinez, John Boerth and Paul Ytuarte—were mentioned in several, with Martinez and Ytuarte each appearing in three. All three officers were named in a grievance report filed by a woman named Patricia López-Hernandez, who alleged that officers entered her home without permission and mocked her English language skills during an aggressive SWAT raid in April 2015. López-Hernandez’ listed telephone phone number was disconnected, and neighbors at her listed address said she had moved away. One man who filed a complaint against Ytuarte tells SFR he’s now fearful of leaving his home after the officer arrested him
NOT A SECRET
SECRET
HUH?
These agencies release at least some information about officer discipline, though they vary on exactly how much:
These agencies maintain that officer discipline records should be kept secret from the public. Some say these records are protected personnel records. Others say they’re “matters of opinion:”
We asked Attorney General Hector Balderas to weigh in. He deferred to one of his deputies, who gave us a puzzling answer:
Albuquerque Police Bernalillo County Sheriff
Santa Fe Police
Doña Ana County Sheriff
Farmington Police
Grants Police
Las Cruces Police
Rio Rancho Police

Santa Fe County Sheriff
Sandoval County Sheriff
on suspicion of assault on an officer and resisting arrest at the Chili’s restaurant on Cerrillos Road in December 2015. In the complaint, Andrew López claims the arrest was unlawful and led to his detention at Santa Fe County jail for nearly 48 hours. Less than four months later, López’ charges were dismissed with prejudice for “lack of prosecution,” state court records show. López believes SFPD launched an investigation into Ytuarte’s actions, but he does not know whether it has been closed, whether the officer was disciplined or how to follow up with the department. López now fears he’s being targeted for harassment by police. He was arrested again in September 2016 on suspicion of aggravated assault and battery—his only other criminal charge besides a few traffic violations—but those charges were also dismissed a few months later. In response to SFR’s emailed inquiry into López’s allegation of targeted harassment, SFPD Deputy Chief Andrew Padilla replied with blank copies of official complaint forms. He acknowledged that the investigation resulting from López first complaint was closed, but did not elaborate. SFR has sought disciplinary records for officers who were not the subjects of complaints, too. After our February story about the Facebook posts by Sgt. Baker, the police union president, we requested his disciplinary records. SFPD confirmed that he was under investigation for the social media posts, but refused to provide information about past discipline. Baker was fired in 2010 following an excessive force claim, but he won his job back
If there is a history of an officer repeatedly coming under question, the public has a right to know. -Doug Carver, New Mexico Ethics Watch from a city review board. The discipline only became public through the hearing process. SFR also requested disciplinary information about officer Leonardo Guzman, who shot and killed 28-year-old Andrew Lucero in Eldorado following an extended car chase far outside the city limits on April 29. Body camera footage from another at the scene indicates Guzman fired after Lucero jumped into his patrol car and accelerated forward into a tree, pinning Guzman’s leg against it. The department denied SFR’s request the day after we sent it, saying the records contained “personnel matters.” SFR asked whether the denial confirmed the existence of past discipline for

Guzman. In response, Deputy Police Chief Mario Salbidrez wrote in an email that “the department does not release such documents if they exist,” and said it was incorrect to interpret the denial as an acknowledgement of the existence of Guzman’s disciplinary records. Asked again whether such records exist, SFPD did not respond. Williams, Carver and Councilor Rivera all say the city’s refusal to release records could cast a pall over officers with clean disciplinary records who become, for whatever reason, involved in controversial incidents. For all Phillip Armijo knows, that could be the case with officer Currey, who arrested him in his sister’s driveway last year. But as with Ytuarte, Guzman, Baker and all the others, Currey’s history with the department remains under lock and key. Armijo says the arrest set his life back in several ways: He now suffers from post-traumatic stress and a fear of being thrown in jail again. And he’s receiving bills for $1,800 from Santa Fe Community College for the courses he had to drop after missing exams during his incarceration. “I was getting Bs in English and Spanish,” he says. “I was doing really well, no problems.” Armijo still wants to know whether Currey’s past might have given SFPD a prior indication of what happened last March. Regardless of the city’s practice, his lawsuit means a federal judge will decide whether he will get to know. Former SFR staff writer Steven Hsieh contributed reporting.

his is a sculpture of San Antonio de Valero, called the Alamo. It is not a model but rather an impression of the feel of the structure with the age and history that it has gone through. The actual mission was founded in 1718. The building itself was started in 1744, but the inscription above the door says 1758 AVR—presumably Ave Maria Regina, “Hail Mary, Queen (of Heaven).” It is most famous and revered for the heroic but fatal stand of 1836 against General Santa Anna and his troops for independence from Mexico. The church fell into ruins, and after Texas joined the Union in 1845, the Army Quartermaster Corp rebuilt the façade and added the profile of the now famous parapet in 1850. The drawer assemblage containing images and artifacts that tell a story of the Alamo itself is by PJ Cardinale, my wife and fellow artist since 1966. 6 The Churches of Roberto Cardinale

FILM/LECTURE THU/8 GILDED GAL Painter Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) often explored the female form, and his works are now some of the most collectible in the world. The Klimt metallic portrait Woman in Gold has received the most attention after it was stolen from the Altmann family by Nazis in Vienna in 1938, and repatriated back to them years later after long efforts by Maria Altmann. Her son, Peter Altmann, takes the Lensic stage to tell the tale of the piece, its abduction and its eventual return. The story became the subject of the 2015 film Woman in Gold starring Helen Mirren, and you can catch a screening after Altmann speaks, adding another layer to this immersive experience into art history.

Foxy Fox White celebrates their new album release in Madrid By now, you should be aware of Jessie Deluxe, a welcome dash of operatic punk rock awesomeness in our scene who mines from areas similar to bands like Eagles of Death Metal, but with a slightly heavier lean and healthy regard for the classics of rock. Did you know Deluxe also fronts Fox White, a triumphant quartet not entirely unlike her usual offerings and perhaps more prolific in their songwriting prowess? Fox White formed two years ago as a side project but, according to Deluxe, has grown into a far more regular gig. “Jessie Deluxe is still totally a thing and there will be another album coming out this year,” she says, “but [Fox White] has had the same amount of effort and intensity, and we’ve been working on this album for a year.” The self-titled release to which Deluxe refers contains a whopping 17 tracks that run the gamut from all-out rock ’n’ roll to jam band-like tomfoolery, but all with a cohesive, collaborative vision courtesy of band member/album engineer Danny Duran. “We rehearse at Danny’s studio in Galisteo, and you’re staring at recording equipment all the
time,” Deluxe notes. “We just had so many songs and it was getting out of control—I wanted to put out 21, but we couldn’t fit them all on the CD—but we recorded everything live in one day, which is crazy.” Luckily, Deluxe had recorded her guitar parts before a snowboarding mishap left her with a broken arm, but even with a three-month delay while she was recuperating, she overdubbed vocals. Now that’s punk rock. Fox White performs the album in its entirety this Friday at the Mine Shaft Tavern (plus a few other gems thrown in), and though it’s not an official release (Deluxe refers to it as a “celebration”), it will be available for sale. Intrepid listeners can sneak a listen at foxwhitemusic. com, but if you’ve ever seen a performance from Jessie Deluxe, her name alone should be reason enough to attend. (Alex De Vore)

Future Islands does stuff like this at shows, so ... heck yes.
First Tracks XL A veritable smorgasbord of musical information friend Jasper who loves blink-182 bought their new album You’re Welcome and was like, “Dude, it’s totally good!” And then I was all like, “Tell me something I don’t know, jabroni.” I’ve mentioned this, but it bears repeating: Don’t miss Los Angeles’ El Ten Eleven in the Railyard (Market and Alcaldesa Streets) on Saturday June 10 at 7 pm. It’s free, it’s part of the Currents New Media Festival (which means a crazy visual component) and, as far as exper-

A
lot of us are probably looking around Santa Fe right now thinking, “Damn, I’m just one person—how can I possibly know all of the things going down?” I get it, so here’s a big old massive edition of First Tracks, wherein I shall relate to you some pretty cool information about local upcoming stuffs. The new Second Street Brewery location (2920 Rufina St.) just picked up a $100,000 Local Economic Development Act grant from the city to sweeten their already-pretty-sweet new space. This means they’ll have to create five new production jobs in the next few years, but also that our local beer situation is safe. We visited the space in April and it was cooler than we ever thought possible—plus, since we apparently can’t go very long without mentioning her, Eliza Lutz of Matron Records is heading up their promotional efforts and aims to keep things a little more cutting-edge. It appears Skylight (139 W San Franscisco St., 982-0775) may just be on the mend, but before we bust out the Champagne, let’s all agree to be cautiously optimistic. Owner Joe Ray Sandoval came by to say (this may be a tad paraphrased), “Hey, Alex—you’re a cool guy and I like you a lot!” at the Wavves show on May 30 and let us know to expect the club to continue special events for the foreseeable future. By the way, if you missed Wavves, you do music wrong. Even my dumb
imental rock duos go, these guys are about the best around. Fairly warned be ye, says I. Future Scars opens. Speaking of Skylight, word on the street is that legendary emcee and Blackalicious member Gift of Gab will rock the mic on Wednesday June 21 (9 pm. $10). That’s pretty big, and local support comes from none other than the Outstanding Citizens Collective, a group of local champs like Wolfman Jack and Benzo dedicated to hip-hop like you wouldn’t believe. And while I’m on the topic of things I might have mentioned before but are so totally worth it that I just don’t want you to forget, Ukrainian folk quartet Dakhabrakha performs alongside freak Americana act Cloacas in the Railyard on June 24 at 7 pm for zero dollars. Word.
El Ten Eleven’s Kristian Dunn only appears under the classiest of black and white streetlights when he performs. (Jay kay.)
The New Mexico Museum of Art (107 W Palace Ave., 476-5072) is hosting Friday night music events for the summer, and I find this to be equal parts charming and probably relaxing. If you haven’t been to NMMA, that’s weird, and if you have, you know it’s way nice all up in there. It’s a rotating list of guest performers, so you’ll just have to pop on by and figure out who is playing on any given Friday at 5 pm. Mark your calendars for Friday September 15, as synthpop act Future Islands is coming to Meow Wolf (1352 Rufina Circle, 395-6369) all the way from Baltimore (that’s where John Waters is from, so…). My dumb friend Jasper is also excited about this show, so take that however you will. Also (partly) from the folks at Meow Wolf is beloved indie-folk-esque act Fleet Foxes and indie-rock duo Beach House joining forces for a big fat night of partying at the beautiful Santa Fe Opera (7:30 pm Monday Sept. 25. 301 Opera Drive, 986-5900). Now, you might be wondering why we’re telling you so early, but it has a lot to do with how this thing is bound to play out. Yes, SFO is gigantic and beautiful and has, like, so many seats, but one must also remember that Fleet Foxes were a pretty big effing deal even before that Father John Misty guy broke out on his own and started blowing minds. Thus far, we’ve found some crazy-expensive prices online, but the $34-$60 tix (which include the service charge and which we stumbled upon via meowwolf.com) are the most affordable, and a portion of proceeds go to the Pro-Choice Safety Network Fund. Will this show sell out? Totally. So get on it. Oh, and it’s not news, but pop on YouTube and look up the First Aid Kit cover of Fleet Foxes’ “Tiger Mountain Peasant Song.” You’re welcome.

You’re Welcome at Wanderer STO RY BY M A R I A EG O L F - RO M E RO I L L U S T R AT I O N S B Y T H E A M I L I N A I R É
T
he first day I breezed into Wanderer in Taos is a day I remember well. My boyfriend and I had driven north to enjoy the mountain roads and lunch in a different space. It was spring 2016 and the weather was unseasonably warm. The shop’s sign, featuring its name printed on a rose quartz-colored arrowhead, stands out in a way that hints there’s something different inside this adobe boutique. And there is. It’s curated with current, affordable pieces and accessories, and has an apothecary section packed with natural cosmetics and skin care products. Wanderer is the brainchild of owner Ashley Arabian, who moved to Taos in the spring of last year. “It’s still pretty new,” Arabian tells SFR. “I only moved here a month before I opened the store. It’s right here in the middle of town and everybody who drives by can see it. … It’s a really sweet place to be.” Minimalist racks made of pipes and raw wood line the outer edge of the elongated space. Bright textile shoulder bags hang sparsely on the walls and windows bathe the long center accessory-table in natural light. You’ll find brands like Amuse Society (amusesociety.com), XIX Palms (xixpalms.com), Stillwater (still waterthebrand.com) and Camp Collection (shopcamp.com). Part of what makes this shop so attractive is that you can find a piece you just saw on your favorite blogger or (ugh I’m going to say it) it-girl on Instagram. Shopping is somewhat about camaraderie: you feel closer to someone you want to emulate when you have the same handbag. And it’s
definitely about feeling good. There’s a reason buying that pair of printed platforms you’ve been eyeing is synonymous with the ethos “Treat yo’self.” When you embark on a retail adventure, you want a nice experience. However, I am sure most shoppers can relate to being bummed out in a shop. We have expectations, and maybe dreams of being able to ask the employees questions like, “Is this cute?” as we try something on. Or, in the least, we want a friendly smile from the shop guy or gal. Unfortunately, this is most often not my experience shopping in Santa Fe. Of course, there are exceptions, but there are also those establishments that solidify this rule. And Santa Fe Dry Goods recently was one of them. I happened in the nosebleed-high priced shop a few weeks ago and was essentially chased out
by the woman working there who stayed (not exaggerating) at most six steps from me as I browsed. I thought she may faint when I pawed a designer bag with a triple-digit pricetag. I mean, Woman-Who-Works-at-DryGoods, I feel you. I nearly fainted at that price myself, and truly I was just shinything’ed and had no intention of paying
As well as trendy and affordable garments, you’ll find bath and skincare goodies like the ones pictured above in this lovely Taos boutique (left).
more than I make in two months for it. But does that mean I should be hawked and made to feel really uncomfortable, so much so that I make a quick exit? Can’t a gal appreciate a pretty thing? Arabian thinks so, and that makes me more willing to spend in her store, in a place I feel welcome. “A lot of stores have that Pretty Woman syndrome—you walk in and they’re like, ‘This girl can’t afford this stuff, I’m not going to talk to her,’” Arabian says. “And that’s bullshit. You should treat everyone with respect either way.” Cost plays a role in Arabian’s inventory choices. “People want to shop ontrend and to do it affordably. I don’t want to spend too much on my clothes,” she says. “I dress pretty simply when it comes down to it.” She wears a vintage rock tee, skinny jeans and black boots to our interview and looks like an effortless rocker-muse. Her shop has simple jewelry and tees in the $30 range and tons of goodies—from clay face masks, bath salts with lavender flowers, natural highlighters and more—in the apothecary section for less than $20, as well as bodysuits and blouses under $60. Heading to Taos for some retail R&R really is a lovely escape, but you’ll soon be able to find Wanderer other places too. In July, an Albuquerque location is slated to open in the Sawmill District just north of Old Town. And Arabian has put her knack for interior design to work at Hotel Luna Mystica (25 ABC Mesa Road, El Prado, 512-789-1587), a vintage trailer hotel, which opened during Music on the Mesa last weekend complete with her immaculate modern Southwest Bohemian touch. When it comes to summer trends, Arabian leaves me with a parting tip that cements her stylesage status. “I always have maxi dresses in here because they work on all shapes and sizes. They’re super comfortable and they work well in the heat without revealing too much,” she says. And then, naming my favorite item she had that day, she says, “I have a mustard crocheted dress I really like and I want to get more stuff like that in here.” WANDERER 11 am-6 pm Monday and Wednesday-Saturday; Noon-5 pm Sunday. 110 Paseo del Pueblo Norte, Taos, 575-224-2626, wanderertaos.com

I hate how my boyfriend has sex with me. He is 40 years old. It used to be fine, but a year ago he started adding new moves he obviously got from porn: smacking my pussy with an open palm, vigorously rubbing my clit, wrapping his hands around my neck. I’m not anti-porn; what bothers me is that even though I told him these moves don’t feel good on my body and hurt me, he doesn’t care. I’ve told him that it is painful when he slaps and manhandles my clit, and he responds that he likes it and I should feel happy that he still wants to fuck me six times a week. It’s not that I don’t want him to enjoy himself, but I don’t feel like his enjoyment should come at the price of mine. I don’t know how to get him to listen to me. -Porn Lessons Erasing All Sexual Energy Your boyfriend listened to you, PLEASE. You told him you don’t like his porny new moves; he told you he likes them and intends to keep doing them. So this isn’t about listening—it’s about caring. Your boyfriend is hurting you and “he doesn’t care.” Dump the motherfucker already. And while you’re not anti-porn, PLEASE, and I’m certainly not anti-porn, it would appear that porn—the default sex education for too many people, young and old—is part of the problem. “The porn industry, like every other area of popular culture, is dominated by a closed loop of white guys talking to white guys about other white guys,” said Cindy Gallop, legendary advertising executive, consultant, and public speaker. “The most easily accessed mainstream straight porn is all about the man, with zero empathy for the female experience, taken to ludicrous (and for the woman, painful) extremes.” Like you and me, PLEASE, Gallop is not antiporn. But she’s fighting shitty porn—and the shitty expectations it can instill—with real-life contrast via her innovative #realworldsex site/ platform MakeLoveNotPorn.com. “It’s a social sex-video-sharing platform designed to be a counterpoint to the porn industry while promoting good sexual values and behavior,” said Gallop. “We need to be able to view great #realworldsex in all its messy, funny, beautiful, silly, wonderful, ridiculous humanness in the same medium that we view porn: online. That’s why MakeLoveNotPorn. com exists. We’re pro-sex, pro-porn, and proknowing the difference.” Gallop wants not only to balance out porn with socially shared #realworldsex, but to see the porn market flooded with porn made by women—which doesn’t mean porn made “for” women, she points out, but more disruptive, creative porn for everyone. “Seeing more innovative porn—porn that men would find just as hot—would result in everybody having a much better time in bed,” said Gallop. “Men need to see there is no bigger turn-on than being in bed with someone who you know is having an absolutely fabulous time because of you.” Unfortunately, PLEASE, you’re having an absolutely miserable time because of him. “PLEASE’s boyfriend is operating in his own closed loop,” said Gallop, “the belief that sexual gratification is all about him. He has no idea what sexual gratification really could be. She needs to leave him.” You can find Cindy Gallop’s viral Ted Talk and a documentary about Make Love Not Porn at ifundwomen.com/projects/makelovenotporn. Follow her on Twitter @CindyGallop. I’m 28 years old and have been with my boyfriend (also 28) for three years. Our relationship is monogamous and vanilla. I’m a pretty sexual person: I’ve been to bondage clubs and burlesque shows, and I’ve had my fair share of sexual encounters with men and women. I like to dominate and be dominated. However, my boyfriend is non-aggressive, non-dominating,

and non-initiating. I ALWAYS have to initiate and I’m ALWAYS in the driver’s seat. I’m tired of this. I enjoy strong masculine energy! I’m a feminist, but sometimes in the bedroom it can be incredibly hot to feel like a sex object. We’ve talked and talked, and tried some light bondage (he didn’t like it), and talked about a threesome (he’s opposed). He says sex just isn’t something he “thinks about a lot.” How do I get him to show some sexual aggression? -Wants Him Aggressive More Keep reading, WHAM. My husband of 17 years has never been into sex—which I always knew was a problem, but the other stuff was good. He’s into pornography, though, and I’ve busted him many times. To say I am resentful is an understatement. He uses corn oil for masturbating, and I’ve been reduced to marking the bottle and booby-trapping it to see if he’s been up to his tricks. We have two children, so that’s what keeps me from “pulling the trigger.” -Gagging In Chicago GIC: You have three options. 1. Pull the trigger. 2. Redefine your marriage as companionate— it’s about child-rearing and family life, not about sex. If your husband is free to find fulfillment in the bottle (of corn oil), and you’re free to find fulfillment in the bedroom (of another man/ men), maybe you can make it work. 3. Continue with what you’re doing now—your husband sneaking off to have a wank, and you monitoring (and booby-trapping?!?) every bottle of corn oil that comes into the house. WHAM: Your boyfriend isn’t going to become someone else—he’s not going to suddenly become more interested in sex or more sexually aggressive—so if you don’t want to be sending me a letter like GIC’s in 14 years, end this relationship. People who want healthy, functional, monogamous LTRs—free from booby traps and busts—need to prioritize sexual compatibility at the start. That doesn’t mean things can’t go off the rails later (see the first letter), but they’re less likely to. I desperately wanted to be GGG in my past relationship. My partner chronically complained that I wasn’t giving him enough sex. I felt so guilty that I put up with some very coercive situations. I became an orgasm dispenser for a dumbass whose beard prickled my clit painfully, who complained my G-spot moved around, and who fell asleep fingering me. I put up with his shit for far too long. It would have been helpful to be told that GGG needs to be MUTUAL and feel good for both parties. -Sassy Unconquered Babe GGG—good in bed, giving of pleasure, and game for anything within reason—is what we should be for our partners and our partners should be for us. So it absolutely needs to be mutual, SUB, and there are definitely limits. “Being GGG means considering a partner’s reasonable sexual requests,” I responded to a reader who asked for a GGG clarification back when we had a brand-new and completely sane president. “Not all sexual requests can be fulfilled, and not all needs can be met. But two people who want to make their relationship work need to carve out a mutually satisfying repertoire that doesn’t leave anyone feeling frustrated or used. Does everyone get everything they want? Of course not. But each of us has a right to ask for our needs to be met (without being abusive or coercive) and the responsibility to indulge our partner’s reasonable requests if we can (without being abused or coerced). We should also recognize when the gulf is too great and end the relationship rather than engaging in sex acts that leave us feeling diminished and dehumanized.” On the Lovecast, can alcohol make you gay for a night?: savagelovecast.com mail@savagelove.net @fakedansavage on Twitter ITMFA.org

THE CALENDAR Barbara Cleaver
Mirror, Mirror Photographs of Frida Kahlo
COURTESY BARBARA CLEAVER
This summer, you can get to know Frida Kahlo a little better via photos of her on view at the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art in the exhibit Mirror, Mirror. Barbara Cleaver, a Mexican Indigenous textile expert who identified Kahlo’s clothing in the images, shares her plans for her upcoming lecture “What She Wore; Frida’s Attire” (2 pm Saturday June 10 $20. 750 Camino Lejo, 982-2226). The images are from the collection owned by Spencer Throckmorton, a New York gallery owner and avid art collector. A modern feminist icon, Kahlo’s image represents strength and individuality. Part of her visual identity is her clothing, which is the subject of Cleaver’s lecture, and she tells SFR why Kahlo’s wardrobe is worthy of a lecture all its own. (Maria Egolf-Romero)
What was your involvement in Mirror, Mirror? Spencer Throckmorton is an old friend, and he asked me to deliver a lecture because he knows of my passionate involvement with Mexican Indigenous textiles and my huge appreciation for Frida Kahlo. [Identifying the clothing] has been a lot of work. … When she died, Diego ordered that her bathroom—which contained a lot of her clothing—be sealed for 50 years, and a few years ago it was opened. There were amazing things in there and a book was done about the collection of textiles. … It’s been very exciting to see these pieces we knew from photographs. Not everything in the photographs was in the closet, but a lot of it was and it’s been a great help. What do you think the audience will learn about Frida from this examination of her wardrobe? I am going to place her in her cultural and political context, and then talk about the actual pieces that she wore. I don’t think you can understand what she wore and why she wore it unless you know those things. The most obvious is her Tehuana costume, because that’s how people visualize her. But she wore many other things besides that. So, we will talk about her Zapotec Indian costume from the isthmus of Tehuantepec, because that’s how most people identify her. You spend time near some of these Indigenous Mexican cultures in Oaxaca. Can you tell us a little about that? Oaxaca is an incredibly Indigenous state, it’s kind of like the New Mexico of Mexico; it has many Indigenous cultures and languages. The first time I was there was in 1972 and I fell head-over-heels in love with it and the people. For the isthmus where the Tehuantepec costumes are from, it’s the closest thing to a matriarchy in the Americas: very strong women, merchants and travellers. One of the reasons this costume appealed so much to Mexican artists and intellectuals of the time, they represent something. The Zapotec people of the isthmus were never completely conquered by the Spanish, and that represented something to the people of post revolutionary Mexico. They were exotic, beautiful and strong.

Pain yields compassion in Ventana Fine Art’s retrospective for modernist Paul-Henri Bourguignon BY J O R DA N E D DY @jordaneddyart
I
visited Ventana Fine Art’s retrospective for Paul-Henri Bourguignon (1906-1988) last Thursday morning, a few hours before President Donald Trump’s announcement that the United States was leaving the Paris Agreement. News of the decision had already spilled from his sieve-like administration, but I was still nervously checking my phone for updates as I entered the gallery. Trump’s rage-filled, disturbingly kinetic populism—slowed for a time by incompetence and scandal—was churning again, and our nation would soon take another dangerous lurch towards isolationism. There was perhaps no better place to be than an art show by an American immigrant who’d witnessed great human suffering, and emerged as a champion of compassion. Bourguignon’s quintessentially modernist brushstrokes capture the essence of a bolder, more generous American spirit. Bourguignon was born in Belgium in 1906, and studied painting at the Brussels Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts. One of his teachers, the post-impressionist painter Alfred Bastien, had fought in the Belgian Army during World War I and worked as a war artist. For Bourguignon, Bastien’s swirling, dusky depictions of soldiers on the battlefield would find their echo in the devastation of World War II. In the years before the conflict, Bour-
guignon had mounted successful shows, completed a second degree in art history and traveled the world. When Germany occupied Belgium in 1940, he found himself trapped in a war zone. He would take a job at an agency that provided ration stamps to foreign travelers, and burned the midnight oil writing a play. From the rubble of WWII rose a generation of modernist artists who were keenly aware of humanity’s dark side, but also harbored a resilient optimism. Bourguignon became an art critic for the Belgian publications Le Phare and Le Phare Dimanche. In 1947, he eagerly accepted an assignment to report on Haiti’s burgeoning art movement. During his 15-month stay, he took up photography and told stories of Haiti’s vibrant culture and devastating struggles with poverty. Bourguignon met his wife, the anthropologist Erika Eichhorn, while he was in Haiti. After an adventure through Peru, he moved to Columbus, Ohio, where Eichhorn had taken a teaching position at Ohio State University. This is technically the start of the Ventana exhibition’s timeline. Only one piece in the show is from before 1950, when Bourguignon moved to the United States, but all of the works bear marks of the artist’s remarkable path to get there. In acrylic, gouache and pastel, Bourguignon conjured visions of the places he’d been and the people he befriended. Numerous landscapes and cityscapes are on view, showing France, Spain, Belgium and Haiti in a loose, energetic style. The real standouts, however, are the portraits, which Bourguignon painted from memory, often abstracting features to emphasize heightened emotional states. Above Ventana’s wooden fireplace, an acrylic painting called “The Glance” shows a mournful face with enormous, dark eyes embedded in a field of grey. In

“Dark Hair,” a woman glares from her frame with potent restlessness. The artist employs choppy brushstrokes for a group portrait titled “Five Haitian Men,” which shows its subjects laughing and telling stories. Bourguignon’s profound empathy for his subjects shone through in each portrait, imbuing the work with a magnetism that held me in its power for long, poignant moments. Even paintings that communicated pain and sorrow possessed a serenity that came with the power of human connection. This is what is gained by opening up to the wider world, and seeking understanding instead of fearing the unknown.
When I left Ventana, I realized with surprise that I hadn’t checked the news once in my time there. As the realities of the world came rushing back in, Bourguignon stayed with me.

BY MICHAEL J WILSON t h e f o r k @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
O
ver the last year, something quietly took shape in the empty storefront between The Betterday coffee shop and La Montañita Co-op at the Solana Center on West Alameda Street. The first sign was a door punched through the wall between Betterday and the former Real Butcher Shop. Then Betterday expanded their food offerings as they took over the former butcher’s kitchen. Then not much else happened until the storefront underwent a radical makeover in April. Then a sandwich board appeared with a menu on it. On May 4, Betterday owner Tom Frost and chef Paul Novak finally showed off what they’d been up to and opened Shoot the Moon (907 W Alameda St.), their New American restaurant. Frost and Novak have managed a special thing with the restaurant, turning an otherwise nondescript strip mall concrete box into an inviting, comfortable space. The room is decked out in rich woods and polished floors and the seating is just nice enough to invoke luxury without feeling snobby. A cozy bar spreads itself out in the back area and the kitchen is positioned dead center. Favoring an old-school style pass-through instead of the more trendy open style, it feels like it’s been there for years. This is a good thing. Overly hip spots often distract from the goods, whereas Shoot the Moon allows the food to take center stage. And that food is simple and delightful,
taking classic American foods and adding in small, entertaining twists. Lamb is served with a three-onion bread pudding; mashed potatoes have vanilla in them; tomato gravy comes with stuffed cabbage (the latter a delicacy heretofore only appreciated by Polish folks in beloved gwumpkies). The first thing to notice is that the prices are a bit high. Entrees hover at the $20 range, appetizers around $10. They’re not a dealbreaker, but could make some second-guess a trip to a shopping center mostly known for a high-end grocery store and a laundromat. To those people, I say: Give it a go. Shoot the Moon could easily become your once-in-a-while dinner-out spot: It’s away from the Plaza, has an earnest lack of pretension, and is just good. I opted for a full three-course meal. The johnnycakes ($9) come with pinto beans and chicos, a beautiful deep red smear of chili paste and cultured cream finish these off. FIRST IMPRESSION: • Beautiful plating • These tiny johnnycakes were so perfectly cooked they looked fake The balance in this starter was unexpected. The earthiness of the beans with the sweetness of the smoked corn is a combo that can’t go wrong. The crisp cakes added a great bite of sweet breadiness. The chili was

spicy, perhaps a bit overpowering considering the subtleness of the other flavors. For the entree I went with the brisket ($23). This is served with a potato-parsnip mash that has a hint of vanilla and a side of asparagus and horseradish cream. FIRST IMPRESSION: • The plating was again picture-perfect • The meat looked a bit fatty, but smelled amazing Novak smokes the brisket in-house and you can taste the freshness. There was a beautiful char on the piece I had, and though the meat was a touch fatty, it melted in the mouth and filled me with a sense of being by a campfire—precisely what a good smoke should do. This was a seriously good brisket. Vanilla in mashed potatoes may sound weird, but this trend in cooking has been around for a few years. Here it takes on a new coat of paint with the parsnips. Not sweet per se, the vanilla adds a brightness that most mashes miss out on. The asparagus was asparagus, but that isn’t to say it wasn’t good, there’s only so much to be done there. For dessert I had to go with the seasonal favorite of rhubarb. Here they serve it
in an apple rhubarb crostata ($10) with a side of vanilla ice cream and strawberry sauce. FIRST IMPRESSION: • So much sauce • Another beautiful plate Crostata is having a bit of a moment. The free-form nature lends an air of “homey” to a menu. It’s not out of place here, but the pastry was a bit grainy and the ice cream was freezer-burned. The sauce was delicious and the filling was as well. I am a pastry snob and my expectations are always high, making this dessert the low point of an otherwise perfect meal. Overall, Frost and Chef Novak have added a much-needed high-end dining spot to their end of town. The Solana Center now features dining of all stripes and this is a welcome development. The big surprise is how beautifully on par with the highest-end restaurants in town Shoot the Moon ends up being.

++ IMPORTANT
Those who haven’t ravenously pursued the history of food can be forgiven for never having heard of Jeremiah Tower but, fact is, he’s a titan in the culinary world known to everyone from Batali to Bourdain, Stewart and beyond. He is (or was) the blueprint for the modern celebrity chef and the single most important pioneer of California cuisine. In The Last Magnificent, from director Lydia Tenaglia (better-known as a producer for Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations), we learn the hows and whys of Tower’s path to veritable superstardom (at least in the culinary world), observe his meteoric rise to fame and, sadly, his self-inflicted fall into isolation and relative obscurity. Tower says it himself in the doc’s opening minutes: He can’t really be around people. As a child, Tower’s parents whisked him across the globe on luxury ships, exposing him to the first-class fineries of travel and food. By his

late 20s, however, he left Harvard never having worked and with essentially no tangible skills. But through a serendipitous position in the early ’70s alongside restauranteur and founder of the legendary Berkeley eatery Chez Panisse, Alice Waters, he honed his skills and proved a stalwart and studied food obsessive. But Tower was also a stubborn visionary, unwilling or unable to collaborate effectively. At the hands of this inability to sacrifice his own wants, he left Chez Panisse, helmed his own ill-fated San Francisco restaurant, Stars, retired from cooking for 15 years and finally took position at NYC’s famed Tavern on the Green. It did not go well. The Last Magnificent follows the objective
purity of all good documentaries, alternately painting the picture of a chef who was operating before his time and a socially inept perfectionist who may very well never know what it is to be satisfied. There is no denying Tower’s place at the table, but there’s also no denying he is a difficult man with ideas and ideals that may have ultimately been his undoing.

++ GAL GADOT ABLY BLENDS BEAUTY AND BRAWN
-- RATHER FORMULAIC
The long-overdue Wonder Woman film is an origin story that doesn’t shrink from the beauty or brawn of a hero in whom the parallels of ancient mythology and modern superhero fiction become literal. Diana (Gal Gadot), the precocious daughter of Queen Hippolyta (Connie Nielsen), is a princess of the superhuman Amazons. The all-female tribe, originally created by Zeus to protect mortals, eventually withdrew to the mystical “Paradise Island” of Themyscira to escape man’s wickedness. But mankind interrupts paradise when American soldier and spy Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crash-lands on Diana’s doorstep, during World War I, with a squadron of Germans in pursuit. As the far-off factions negotiate an armistice, a rogue German general (Danny Huston) and his maimed, mad chemist (Elena Anaya) concoct a new nerve agent that could tip the balance of the war. Hearing of the cataclysm and motivated by the mythological bedtime stories of her childhood, Diana comes to believe that only she can save the world by leaving Themyscira and

vanquishing Ares, the Greek god of war and an enemy of the Amazons. Arriving in World War I-era London, Diana peruses a new wardrobe to cover her utilitarian leather skirt and blend into a corseted, maledominated society as her alter ego, Diana Prince. “How do you fight in this attire?” the warrior unironically asks, donning an outfit that evokes the fashion of the women’s suffrage movement. The scene references the comic-book origins of Wonder Woman, whose creator, psychologist William Moulton Marston, was partly inspired by early-20th-century feminism. Director Patty Jenkins (Monster) was originally tapped to direct Thor 2 before leaving the Marvel Studios project due to creative differences. For more than a decade, she lobbied to helm a Wonder Woman film, and then got the gig after Michelle MacLaren dropped out. The result is the most grounded of the first four films in the evolving DC Extended Universe. It doesn’t reinvent the superhero origin story; it’s rather formulaic in that regard. Pine’s able mix of wit and earnestness serves him well as Diana’s sherpa and latent love interest, and Gadot strikes the right balance as an alluring, even playful idealist who relishes the battle but not the war.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES
6
++ GHOST PIRATES! -- GHOST PIRATES…
Johnny Depp and crew are back as Captain Jack Sparrow and a bunch of bafflingly yet inextricably linked seafaring types in the newest installment of Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer’s Pirates franchise. Looks like Jack Sparrow ran afoul of a Spanish captain named Salazar (a wonderfully spooky Javier Bardem) some years ago and, as is the style of these films, that means supernatural curses for some reason and more acrobatic adventure for the likes of the formerly-also-cursed Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), Henry Turner (the son of Orlando Bloom’s Will Turner from previous films, as played by the incredibly conventionally handsome Brenton Thwaites from Gods of Egypt) and a brilliant if brash young scientist named Carina (The Maze Runner’s Kaya Scodelario). Young Henry wants to save his dad from service on the ghost ship Flying Dutchman, but he’ll need the fabled trident of Poseidon to do so. According to legend, anyone who’s got that thing is basically the king of the sea. The only catch is
that to get that bad boy he’ll need a “map no man can read.” Good thing Carina is a woman (and also conveniently has the map), so they join Jack Sparrow to get that danged artifact while Salazar nips at their heels totally ready to kill everyone cause he straight crazy. Whereas the series took a bizarre turn many films ago and chooses to favor ghosts and stuff over good old-fashioned pirating, Dead Men isn’t as bad as you’d think. This isn’t to say it’s great by any means—more like you’ll probably never find yourself bored. Depp is … fine as Sparrow, but we’ve of course grown accustomed to his Keith Richards-y bumbling and damn-near-unbelievable ability to piss off every fucking ghost and curse victim throughout the Seven Seas. Bardem is brilliant as always and actually provides a fun villain, it’s just that everything else is fairly predictable at this point. Paul McCartney’s cameo, however, is a pure delight, and we would have watched a whole movie just with him being a goofball. Still, pirates get stabbed, and what else are you doing? (ADV) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 129 min.
OBIT ++ GREAT INSIDE VIEW OF THE PRESS -- IF YOU THINK JOURNALISTS ARE
7
THE ENEMY, YOU WON’T LIKE THIS
Inside a brittle folder in a metal filing cabinet in an overstuffed room, there’s evidence that
journalists had been preparing for her death since 1931. Now, it’s 2010, and former teenage daredevil pilot Elinor Smith has died in her 90s. Out comes the file from the newspaper morgue, the advance obituary written by a reporter himself already long dead. And so begins the research about her role on the early aviation stage—and it’s got to be done by tomorrow. In the tradition of 2011’s Page One—which featured newsroom action at The New York Times and an extensive look at famed, now late, media writer David Carr—this newest documentary about the Gray Lady gets inkstained with the most common of denominators: the obituary pages. Turns out, there’s still a whole department at the Times for obituary writers who take on stories from across the nation and the globe. Once a busy part of the news operation, the morgue service is still part of how they research the movers and shakers from 50 years ago who are now dropping like flies. Sure, the internet has renovated research tactics, but it’s refreshing to see writers tenderly parse through old pieces of newspaper and hold actual photographs close to their eyes; history buffs will love the archival video footage that helps bring the newspaper stories to life. And if you’re one of those people who goes goo-goo on social media every time a Gregg Allman or a Chris Cornell or a Prince fades to black, you might want to hear about the day Michael Jackson died. The editors and writers of Obit are an articulate, thoughtful bunch. Each day, says obituarist William Grimes. “You have a chance that you can’t repeat; it is a once-only chance to make the dead live again.” (Julie Ann Grimm) Center for Contemporary Arts, NR, 93 min.
ALIEN COVENANT
6
++ STUNNING VISUALS -- IF I CREATED RIDLEY SCOTT’S MANKIND, I’D GIVE UP ON THEM, TOO
In the futuristic world of 2104, which director Ridley Scott renders in jaw-dropping fashion, mankind has colonized planets and built synthetic humanoids. But they’ve also apparently abandoned wearing space suits and testing atmospheres—as they did in the previous Alien installment, Prometheus, which is set just 10 years earlier—and decided to wing it on a new planet. It does not go well. Alien: Covenant is not a horror flick. It’s sci-fi. There’s some quality suspense, but not a ton. More than anything, the movie feels like a chapter, the conscience of which is Katherine Waterston
(Inherent Vice) as Daniels, who becomes the second-in-command aboard the colonization freighter Covenant. Waterston delivers some of the most important lines and seems to be the only one with the little voice in her head that says, “Maybe we shouldn’t.” If everyone played it safe, this would admittedly be a boring movie about a long trip through space, but there’s no real drama to the decisions the crew must make. Despite mankind’s advanced state of existence, the crew of 15 contains just three African Americans and one Hispanic. Sadly, the only notable role among them is Demián Bichir’s (The Hateful 8) Lope, a well-played security team leader. While Idris Elba was believable as a no-nonsense pilot in Prometheus, Danny McBride is less so as a ratty-straw-hat cowboy. He seems more at home steering a jet ski as Kenny Powers in HBO’s Eastbound and Down, and though McBride has shown range in non-comedic assignments, he seems miscast here. Scott smartly homes in on Michael Fassbender who, despite being a humanoid, is the dark soul of the movie. Fassbender’s David has the same chip on his shoulder in Covenant as his Peter-O’Toole-obsessed self in Prometheus. His new iteration, Walter, is David’s less-inquisitive self. The interplay between them brings some of the movie’s most poignant moments. Like Prometheus before it, Covenant scratches at a lot of larger issues but, ultimately, I want this film to do more. It doesn’t take much to get me to suspend disbelief in sci-fi—I want to be on that new planet or in that ship—but you’ve gotta try. Director Scott doesn’t seem to agree. (Matt Grubs) Regal, Violet Crown, R, 122 min.
THE COMMUNE
7
++ BEAUTIFUL, PAINFULLY REALISTIC -- WHILE BELIEVABLE, NOT ENTIRELY RELATABLE
The fragility of aging relationships takes center stage in The Commune, a tense vision of 1970’s Denmark that manages to tell an honestly painful love story through unconventional yet believable means. Erik (an entirely unlikable Ulrich Thomsen) is a stuffy architecture professor who seems quick to anger and altogether unsuited for communal life. But when he inherits his sprawling childhood home after his father’s death, Erik’s wife Anna (Trine Dryholm of 2012’s A Royal Affair) convinces him to embrace the ideals of the then-burgeoning concept, though it ultimately becomes their downfall in director Thomas Vinterberg’s (2012’s The Hunt) loosely-based retelling of his own childhood growing up in a commune of his own.

Erik wants to ditch the house for the money, but Anna, fearing the doldrums of a 15-year marriage, views the inheritance as an opportunity for growth. Old friends, flighty hippies and young couples join forces with Erik and Anna, and a family unit begins to form. But when Erik begins an affair with a young student named Emma (Helene Reingaard Neumann), the betrayal runs deep. To Anna’s credit, she tactfully agrees to see where it goes which is, of course, disastrous, and Erik’s innate ability to gaslight his wife without the least bit of concern for her mental well-being is absolutely infuriating. At times funny, The Commune straddles the line someplace between Wes Anderson-y character dramedy and uncomfortable cautionary tale, though rather than feel sad for its main characters, we ultimately pity their flawed humanity. Will people do the worst things when given enough rope and does idealism or misguided belief in others goeth before a fall? Either way, it’s nice to see a character-driven film made well, even if one does wonder how the hell seemingly enlightened people could do such terrible things to one another. (ADV) Jean Cocteau, NR, 111 min.
NORMAN

++ HEAVY ON THE INTRIGUE AND BULLSHITTERY
-- DRAGS FOR NEARLY TWO HOURS
Norman Oppenheimer might have the same last name as SantaFamous philanthropists and the guy who gets the credit for facilitating the atomic bomb up there in Los Alamos, but his life apparently had fewer headline accomplishments. That’s not to say that this ass-kissy and handsy fellow, part stalker and part detective, has not accomplished plenty. He spends all day cold-calling, hot-calling and otherwise pestering a smattering of his vast network of his New York Jewish friends to trade favors in this film originally subtitled the muchmore-descriptive The Moderate Rise and Tragic Fall of a New York Fixer. Richard Gere (The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel) sheds any hint of his heartthrob calling card to don the role of not just a pathetic schmooze, but a pained loner who is either really good at making connections or really bad at it. He’s pushy when he needs to be, quiet and captivating when he needs that instead—yet Oppenheimer’s matchmaking is still flawed. When he befriends a rising star in the Israeli political sphere (a chiseled and poised delivery from Lior Ashkenazi), the protagonist in this affair ends up in over his head. His first clue is the impulsive retail therapy for his mark: a pair of shoes worth more than $1,000. But the bluffer and bullshit artist is undeterred. Prepare to spend lots of time listening to the lyrical sounds of Hebrew and reading the English subtitles, a respectable choice for a time when Americans don’t want to feel at the center of it all (and for a film shot half in Tel Aviv). Notable in a supporting role is the plainfaced investigator Alex, played by Charlotte Gainsbourg, who effectively channels every woman everywhere who has ended up on public transit next to a man who feels entitled to conversation. It’s never clear how Oppenheimer makes a living, and she’s quick to get on the case. Is he a delusional name-dropper or a victimized mensch? That one might be for history to sort out, too.

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2
9
++ SO FUN, SO FUNNY, SO COOL -- NOT AS IMPACTFUL AS THE FIRST FILM
In a sea of ultra-serious films based on comic books, melodrama fatigue becomes a serious concern. Thank goodness then for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, another excellent outing for the lesser-known Marvel heroes and one of the most incredibly fun franchises currently hitting theaters. Once again, we join Peter Quill/Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax (Dave Bautista), Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) and Groot (now in baby form but still voiced by Vin Diesel) as they unwittingly get swept up into the collective role of galactic saviors. When Quill’s father Ego (an excellent Kurt Russell) finally tracks him down after 30-plus years of searching, the humorous hero learns of his origins and—get this—they are dubious. Turns out his dad’s a god (“With a little ‘g,’” Ego says) with nefarious intentions, and the Guardians must step in to set him straight. Of course, the two-pronged approach of slapstick antics and absolutely killer soundtrack are the real draw here, but Guardians also manages to drive home some fairly heavy material on the topics of family drama, friendship and, almost surprisingly, love—though never in a way as silly as the overarching plot would lead us to believe. There are, in fact, some downright moving scenes shared between Quill and his sorta-kinda adoptive father Yondu (an exceedingly fun Michael Rooker). And all the while, great tunes from the likes of Looking Glass, Cat Stevens and ELO blare through the speakers through firefights and space battles, gravity-defying Pac-Man references and, gleefully, the reveal of the fate of one Howard the Duck. Writer and director James Gunn absolutely nails the tone, and even when things become borderline too-serious, he knows just how to pull it out and make us laugh. Throw in excitingyet-brief appearances from heavyweights like Michelle Yeoh and Sylvester Stallone, and we’ve got what may be the perfect summer movie; the opening dance sequence alone is worth the price of admission.

MIND BODY SPIRIT CHIROPRACTIC Rob Brezsny
Week of June 7th
ARIES (March 21-April 19) If you chose me as your relationship guide, I’d counsel you and your closest ally to be generous with each other; to look for the best in each other and praise each other’s beauty and strength. If you asked me to help foster your collaborative zeal, I’d encourage you to build a shrine in honor of your bond — an altar that would invoke the blessings of deities, nature spirits, and the ancestors. If you hired me to advise you on how to keep the fires burning and the juices flowing between you two, I’d urge you to never compare your relationship to any other, but rather celebrate the fact that it’s unlike any other in the history of the planet.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Do you have your visa for the wild side? Have you packed your bag of tricks? I hope you’ll bring gifts to dispense, just in case you’ll need to procure favors in the outlying areas where the rules are a bit loose. It might also be a good idea to take along a skeleton key and a snake-bite kit. You won’t necessarily need them. But I suspect you’ll be offered magic cookies and secret shortcuts, and it would be a shame to have to turn them down simply because you’re unprepared for the unexpected.
riches that could be available to you in the future. How much money do you want? How much love can you express? How thoroughly at home in the world could you feel? How many warm rains would you like to dance beneath? How much creativity do you need to keep reinventing your life? Be extravagant as you fantasize.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) People might have ideas about you that are at odds with how you understand yourself. For example, someone might imagine that you have been talking trash about them — even though you haven’t been. Someone else may describe a memory they have about you, and you know it’s a distorted version of what actually happened. Don’t be surprised if you hear even more outlandish tales, too, like how you’re stalking Taylor Swift or conspiring with the One World Government to force all citizens to eat kale every day. I’m here to advise you to firmly reject all of these skewed projections. For the immediate future, it’s crucial to stand up for your right to define yourself — to be the final authority on what’s true about you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) “When I grow up, I’m not sure what I want to be.” Have you ever heard that thought bouncing around your mind, Gemini? Or how about this one: “Since I can’t decide what I want to be, I’ll just be everything.” If you have been tempted to swear allegiance to either of those perspectives, I suggest it’s time to update your relationship with them. A certain amount of ambivalence about commitment and receptivity to myriad possibilities will always be appropriate for you. But if you hope to fully claim your birthright, if you long to ripen into your authentic self, you’ll have to become ever-more definitive and specific about what you want to be and do. CANCER (June 21-July 22) As a Cancerian myself, I’ve had days when I’ve stayed in bed from morning to nightfall, confessing my fears to my imaginary friends and eating an entire cheesecake. As an astrologer, I’ve noticed that these blue patches seem more likely to occur during the weeks before my birthday each year. If you go through a similar blip any time soon, here’s what I recommend: Don’t feel guilty about it. Don’t resist it. Instead, embrace it fully. If you feel lazy and depressed, get REALLY lazy and depressed. Literally hide under the covers with your headphones on and feel sorry for yourself for as many hours as it takes to exhaust the gloom and emerge renewed.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) “God doesn’t play dice with the universe,” said Albert Einstein. In response, another Nobel Prize-winning physicist, Niels Bohr, said to Einstein, “Stop giving instructions to God.” I urge you to be more like Bohr than Einstein in the coming weeks, Capricorn. As much as possible, avoid giving instructions to anyone, including God, and resist the temptation to offer advice. In fact, I recommend that you abstain from passing judgment, demanding perfection, and trying to compel the world to adapt itself to your definitions. Instead, love and accept everything and everyone exactly as they are right now.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Lysistrata is a satire by ancient Greek playwright Aristophanes. It takes place during the war between Athens and Sparta. The heroine convinces a contingent of women to withhold sexual privileges from the soldiers until they stop fighting. “I will wear my most seductive dresses to inflame my husband’s ardor,” says one. “But I will never yield LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) In the early days of the Internet, to his desires. I won’t raise my legs towards the ceil“sticky” was a term applied to websites that were good ing. I will not take up the position of the Lioness on a at drawing readers back again and again. To possess this Cheese Grater.” Regardless of your gender, Aquarius, your next assignment is twofold: 1. Don’t be like the quality, a content provider had to have a knack for women in the play. Give your favors with discerning offering text and images that web surfers felt an generosity. 2. Experiment with colorful approaches to instinctive yearning to bond with.
