NEWS, MAY 3: “SUGAR TAX FAILS”
UGH! People always vote against taxes in this country. It’s insane. That backwoods mentality of “the government’s coming to get our money!” is not exactly correct. You protect your hard-earned dollars from “the government” while huge corporations and Wall Street run off with billions of your cash. Why? Because we don’t invest in small government. We don’t invest in each other. We invest in them. This is why small government is looking for alternatives to fund programming. There is no other option. Getting kids into pre-K will help parents get back to work, which will help the economy, get children off on a strong start in learning ... and it also gives future generations a stronger chance for survival and success (who will be your neighbors, or the ones taking care of your old, dying asses). ... What is truly sad is that progress needs the Bloomberg dollars to even compete with such massive entities like the NRA, Coca-Cola, etc. ... So thanks a lot for voting for your addictions and big corporate money ... over your/our children. And that’s not a “moralistic tone;” that’s the truth of this country’s political climate. And it is killing us all.

ROBERT JAYE SFREPORTER.COM
JUST A PLOY The tax is nothing but a big lie; especially if Bloomberg is involved. “Doing it for the kids” is overused and merely a phrase to justify a different agenda. We have enough money pumped into the black hole of New Mexico education and we are still at the bottom educational rung. Something is wrong with New Mexico big-time and more money isn’t going to solve anything. It’s been this way far back as I can remember ... and nothing changes. Furthermore, teach your children at home. We don’t need to have them indoctrinated with left wing anti-American rhetoric; and don’t think it doesn’t happen. May as well send them to Afhanistan [sic]. Unfortunately, we haven’t heard the last of this tax ploy.

mandate a cleanup of legacy waste at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Part of the public input the city is soliciting will be used to develop strategies for how to achieve these goals, and prioritizing which to undertake first. “That’s the next step of the plan: taking those overarching goals and those wish lists, and really getting down on paper how these things would be practically implemented, how they could be paid for and who would actually work on getting these things done—is it the city, the private sector, is it a public-private partnership?” Alejandro says. Transportation was identified as the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions through the city’s baseline survey. The commission reports that 75 percent of Santa Feans drive to work alone, 1 percent of the population rides buses, and more than 60 percent of the Santa Fe workforce live outside the city and commute into it; middle income families sometimes spend more than half of their money on transportation and housing. Those costs tally up in public health as well, with carbon dioxide a contributor to lung disease. So the plan sets a goal of increasing frequency of buses on key routes and reducing transit times, as well as encouraging the purchase of electric vehicles and fostering more live/work spaces

COURTESY CITY OF SANTA FE

he city’s work to advance its goal of easing impacts on the climate could dramatically reshape our built infrastructure for decades to come, with ramifications that either increase equity or widen that gap. “The days of sprawl may be at an end if we’re going to overcome a lot of our greenhouse gas emissions and make the city a place where people can actually live and work—as in, they live in proximity to their job and take public transportation or walk to where they need to work,” says John Alejandro, renewable energy planner for the City of Santa Fe. The Sustainable Santa Fe Commission, a volunteer citizen advisory board, has begun sharing its recommendations for the 25-year sustainability plan expected to map the course toward meeting the city’s goal of being carbon-neutral by 2040, which is, yes, just 23 years away. That goal was set in November 2014 by a City Council resolution. The plan is still in a lofty, big-picture phase. Materials presented at Sustainable Santa Fe’s ongoing public meetings speak in loose terms under the umbrellas of about a dozen focus areas, including transportation, energy, water and food security, and are available on its website, sustainablesantafe2040.com. All points are assessed based on environment, equity and the economy. At this stage, there’s no more detail than identifying the problems and setting some aspirational solutions for them. Those goals dive into some of the city’s deeply entrenched issues. Carbon-neutral status will rely in large part on more affordable housing, more mixed-use development and fewer cars on the road. Solar projects for low-income residents and nonprofits are to be encouraged and perhaps financially aided by the city. All businesses and multi-family homes should be enrolled in recycling programs—and city offices should be required to show a 100 percent recycling rate. The plan even floats the notion of a regional utility coalition, as well as the idea of legislation to
and higher-density development, which would require more flexible zoning. The other snag will be installing retrofits in homes in the Historic District, where residents can’t even re-stucco a house without city approval. How will they be persuaded to install solar panels? “It’s a delicate balance,” Alejandro says, “but there are things we can do.” Without knowing the details, it’s tough to assess how they’ll affect the city’s low-income residents, says Tomás Rivera of Chainbreaker Collective, which will host one of the upcoming meetings. He argues that the city could simultaneousCOURTESY BDD

ly reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and serve its poorest residents through strategic applications of these programs. The buses make for an example: Expanding service in the Airport Road corridor would both decrease emissions and serve a population that’s more often dependent on mass transportation. “When we talk about sustainability, we think of it not only in terms of environment but also equity,” he says. “We want to lead with equity, not think of it as an afterthought.” Any approach that aims to reduce carbon first and expects to address equity second, he says, will likely leave the city’s poorest residents behind. One of the ideas pioneered in the plan, as it is, aims to address both simultaneously by creating “eco-districts” in low-income neighborhoods. Alejandro lists Hopewell-Mann and the area near the Genoveva Chavez Community Center as possible sites for neighborhood-wide efforts to upgrade old homes to energy-efficient windows and roofs, and distributed solar energy. These environmentally friendly retrofits that reduce a home’s carbon footprint can cut utility costs for its residents. More energy-efficient appliances, better insulation and better windows would all help. The question with that program, and with all of the plan’s components, will be how to pay for it. Federal funding is unstable at this point, and state support for these programs has been lean. More meetings on the plan are expected over the summer. “Sustainability is not this upper-class context or white-led movement, it’s something that affects all of us and decisions need to be made within the community and by the community,” says Mariajosé Alcazar, associate director of Earth Care, which works to drive environmental and social justice projects in Santa Fe and will also co-host one of the upcoming meetings. “What we try to teach about the environmental movement in general is that, in its framework, it has isolated the most important people who should be front and center.”

Second Lifer Parole board moves to release man on ‘30-year lifer’ sentence, bucking its yearslong trend of denials for most prisoners J E F F P RO CTO R j e f f p r o c t o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
O
n the line was Carole Royal’s husband of 25 years, OC Fero. A caseworker from the Lea County Correctional Facility in Hobbs had handed the phone to him. “Hello, Carole,” Fero said. “Yes,” she replied. “I heard back from the Parole Board today,” Fero continued. “Yes,” was all Royal could manage. “They are granting me parole.” “‘Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God’—I must’ve said it 20 times,” Royal tells SFR and New Mexico In Depth, remembering her reaction to the news on May 3. “For all these years, we’ve never run out of things to say to each other. And now here we were, kind of numb, in shock, unable to find the words.” SFR and New Mexico In Depth featured Fero’s case in a March story about the New Mexico Parole Board’s exceptionally low rate—just 7 percent—of releasing parole-eligible lifers from prison. Under a 1980 state law, three- and four-member Parole Board panels must give those who have been sentenced to 30 years to life for murder a fair hearing and a chance at freedom every two years after they have served 30 years. That hasn’t been happening, however, largely because Parole Board Chair Sandy Dietz has amassed near-complete control over the process, stacking it against would-be parolees, SFR and NMID found. Dietz once told the Albuquerque Journal she believes “life means life.” Fero’s case was a prime example: He’d never been so much as accused of a crime before the February 1985 day he fatally shot his boss, Gallup-McKinley schools superintendent Paul Hansen. The two had argued over Fero’s employment. He was convicted at trial and spent the next 30 years bettering himself in prison. Fero was ordained as a priest, tutored other inmates for their high school equiva-
lencies, earned three master’s degrees and married Royal, his former colleague at the school district—all from behind bars. None of that moved Dietz, who focused Fero’s March 2015 parole hearing solely on the crime. Fero got the news four days later: Dietz had denied him parole. Almost exactly two years later, on March 22, a new panel—one that did not include Dietz—granted his appeal for life outside the prison walls. “It took more than a month to tell him this time, and you really suffer, wondering,” Royal says. “I’m just really looking forward to no one telling us whether we can play cards or hold hands.” She credits SFR and NMID for shining a light on the system that denied her husband parole the first time. So does Sheila Lewis, a retired public defender who once worked as Fero’s appellate lawyer. “I was initially really grateful when I heard, and absolutely thrilled,” Lewis says. “Then I remembered how many people are left behind in prison. That left me angry and motivated to keep fighting.” Fero is one of 435 people serving 30-to-life sentences in New Mexico’s prisons. The Parole Board has heard 92 appeals since 2010. That’s when the 30-year lifers began to come eligible for release. Forty-four have had hearings; some of them as many as four. Fero was just the seventh granted parole. Not all the news from a set of March 22 hearings was good from the perspective of
Lewis and a small group of attorneys who have been advocating for some of the 30year lifers to be released, and for a fairer system overall. Board members heard an appeal from Walter Scott Finnell, who was convicted of murder, attempted murder and armed robbery in 1981. It was his fourth hearing. Dietz denied his release, once again citing the nature of the crime and not considering his relatively clean record as an inmate, according to Mark Donatelli, Finnell’s lawyer. It is not clear which board members sat on Finnell’s panel. The board has been without an executive director since Sher-
Carole Royal and OC Fero married while he was behind bars. Now, he’s coming home.
NEWS ry Stephens resigned shortly after the NMID and SFR story in March. Operations Director Megan Moreno did not respond to multiple requests for comment for this story. Donatelli and Lewis were among those who supported proposed legislation to require the Parole Board to make a detailed finding that the inmate is “unable or unwilling to fulfill the obligations of a law-abiding citizen” before denying parole. The bill died in a House committee after Gov. Susana Martinez, who reappointed Dietz to the board’s chair in 2015 and sings her praises, vowed to veto the measure. Now, the attorneys will take the push for reform to the state Supreme Court, Lewis says. About 10 attorneys plan to file habeas corpus petitions, essentially saying that the conditions of their clients’ confinement are unconstitutional because the board is not providing full, fair parole hearings. “The article changed the field legally,” Lewis says.“I think we can demonstrate now that these are sham hearings. The Legislature spoke loudly and clearly in 1980. They said, ‘Taking a life is very serious, and the punishment for that is 30 years.’ But the Parole Board has an obligation to identify a pathway out of prison. They aren’t doing that, and we believe the court will recognize that.” Royal has testified in front of legislative committees about how the Parole Board’s “arbitrary” practices have impacted not just her husband’s chances for release, but other 30-year lifers, too. She and Fero are optimists, an outlook rooted in their religious faith. But their conversations had turned to large-scale life changes after Fero felt his second hearing may not have gone well in March. “It takes six hours to drive down to Hobbs, and I told him I wasn’t sure I could do that anymore,” Royal says. “I was thinking of maybe selling my house and moving closer to the prison.” That all changed last Wednesday when the caseworker called. Fero still has some hoops to jump through—a DNA test, a psychological evaluation—before his release in a few weeks. Royal will drive to Hobbs and pick him up. She’s eager to put him to work pulling weeds. “It has entered my mind that this might never happen,” she says. “I think I dealt with that before I married him. But now, just being together like this—I’ve just always enjoyed his company so much.” This story was reported in partnership with New Mexico In Depth.

he mayor was at home. After months spent talking about the futures of 966 children, he was presently concerned primarily with the immediate futures of two. It was 7 pm, polling places across Santa Fe were closing and, within hours, his daughters—and everyone else—would know whether his sugary-drink tax plan to fund 966 seats in expanded pre-kindergarten programs had succeeded or been rejected by the community he hoped it would benefit. The mayor had a sense the special election wouldn’t go his way. He wanted his daughters to be prepared. Cameron Gonzales, 18 years old and a senior at Santa Fe Prep, worked on the Pre-K for Santa Fe political action committee as part of her school’s community service requirement. Cadence, a seventh-grader at the Academy for Technology and the Classics, spent time volunteering on Election Day. “They very much have been part of the dinner-table conversation about, ‘why am I doing this?’ … I said to them, ‘I’m very thankful for you guys putting yourselves in this and you made me proud, and are you guys ready for both winning and losing?’” Santa Fe Mayor Javier Gonzales recalls. “And of course they said, ‘We’re gonna win. And we’re gonna do this.’ And I said, ‘No, I want you to be ready for the alternative that we lose.’” They did lose. Badly. Nearly 20,000 voters showed up to defeat the mayor’s proposal by a 58-42 percent margin. “I think that when the [Pre-K for Santa Fe] campaign shared the numbers with me from the Southside, it was a larger gap than I had

Gonzales disagrees. “The city shouldn’t have to own every challenge that’s in our community that needs to be addressed,” he says. “What the city can be is a convener and a co-partner in it. And we have to start looking at partnerships to deliver on a lot of community-based programs that aren’t being met.” For the mayor, extending the city’s reach into the classroom makes sense because there are partners ready to go— the United Way and the Early Childhood Center of Excellence at Santa Fe Community College are two he mentions—

and New Mexico actually does well at delivering what early childhood education it funds. But the city is just a year removed from a $15 million dollar deficit.

anticipated,” Gonzales tells SFR in his City Hall office during an interview two days later. “But when it lost by the margins it had and then the early votes came in from the Genoveva Chavez, it was pretty clear that the referendum wasn’t going to be successful.” Gonzales now has to move forward, his signature initiative during his lone term as mayor a failed attempt at finding a way to pay for early childhood education programs. He’s just finished a meeting with City Manager Brian Snyder. He’s in jeans, with his dress shirt unbuttoned at the top. No tie. He’s growing his beard back. If he’s not feeling in a reflective mood, he at least looks the part. By the end of the month, Gonzales says, he needs to decide if he’ll run for a second term as mayor or set his sights on a higher office, such as governor. He says there are people with designs on the big office at City Hall who are wondering what he’ll do, and it’s only fair to decide sooner rather than later. But he’s not likely to decide now, in the week immediately following the sugary-drink tax defeat. Gonzales is busy sifting through what went wrong—and of course making sure his daughters understand how to handle a tough loss. “The girls were sad. Cameron spent yesterday writing I think a 10-page-long letter to the editor. … I told her, ‘You’re going to have to reduce [that] by about 90 percent,’” he says. “And of course I was a little bit worried about the kids going to school and how they were going to be. They came back and said everything was cool. Which meant, I think, families made their vote and were ready to move on.” As far as his own wounds go, Gonzales seems sanguine after the defeat. “You have to be prepared for whatever the result is and wake up the next day and be ready to serve,” he says, sounding as though he thought a bit about that line. But, he adds, “There was for sure some sadness that started really with the fact that it was a missed opportunity to move into the area that would have fundamentally transformed our community when it came to quality education.”
Gonzales didn’t lose on the idea of expanding early childhood education. It remains widely popular. But it’s not cheap. According to the United Way of Santa Fe County, the state reimburses approved pre-K programs $6,450 per 4-year-old. Early pre-K, for 3-year-olds, is even more expensive at $7,418 per child. Many of the voters who spoke to SFR on Election Day felt as though hitching the city’s horse to that educational wagon meant Santa Fe would have to fund pre-K for the long haul. One teacher who feared backlash if her school found out her views would only speak about her vote if SFR agreed not to identify her. “If we really cared about education,” she said, “it would be funded the long-term way, where you put your money towards things you feel are important. And I just feel that [the tax] is a little bit shortsighted as far as a longterm solution to what’s going on with families in Santa Fe.”
Mayor Javier Gonzales is still busy sifting through what went wrong with his initiative.

by the Legislature, then the voters. Advocates of early childhood education have tried to advance such a measure for years. Despite the fact that a proposed amendment passed the state House last legislative session, it and similar measures have never gotten past the Senate Finance Committee. The fiscally conservative group of senators has been loath to approve any plan to take more money from funds that are supposed to be available for New Mexicans forever.
has increased fees to help it weather the financial storm. “When they use a parking slot or when they use a city rec center, those are all areas where they have to dig into their pocket a little more,” Gonzales says, acknowledging the situation facing residents. Then he pauses. “I think … I think that the public got it right on this.” He’s not backing away from pre-K, nor does he think the community will, but it seems a retooled sugary-drink tax effort to pay for it is not in the cards. Finding money for expanded pre-K won’t be easy, the mayor acknowledges. And he doesn’t think spending existing city money on a new $7.7 million program is smart. On that point, he’s in line with one of his chief opponents on the sugary-drink tax, City Councilor Ron Trujillo. The District 4 representative has consistently said Santa Fe shouldn’t be getting involved in education because there’s too much that needs attention after some lean years in Santa Fe. The mayor says there’s $150 million in deferred maintenance on city roads and buildings. The affordable housing rental deficit hovers around 2,400 units. Pre-K may be important to the community, but if it’s going to be funded, there needs to be a new revenue stream— and it can’t hurt the same Santa Feans
who are struggling to find an affordable place to live. “How we find those revenues is not something that should solely fall on middle class or lower-income people,” Gonzales says. For now, Santa Fe will have to do with the community’s existing pre-kindergarten programs. Many of them are excellent, top-rated early childhood education efforts. But there simply are not enough. An economic study by economist Kelly O’Donnell, which proponents of the sugary-drink tax used to bolster their case, argued that Santa Fe’s mix of public pre-K, federally funded Head Start and quality private early childhood programs is lacking more than 966 seats. Over the past couple of decades, researchers have homed in on the benefits of early childhood education. The vast majority of states have some sort of public program for 4-year-olds—just six don’t fund pre-K. Nationwide, funding has steadily increased for such programs, jumping by 47 percent in the last five years according to the Education Commission of the States. Since 2005, New Mexico has increased its funding to pre-kindergarten programs from $5 million to $54 million. The state focuses on 4-year-olds, though its system also contains an early pre-K component that’s been pegged at $24 million for three years in a row. Both programs target children in low-income school districts. The O’Donnell study says the state pays for 460 kids in pre-K programs
in the Santa Fe area, with 48 spots for 3-year-olds in early pre-K programs. Despite relatively robust increases in money given to early childhood education at the state level—funding has increased by 80 percent over the last five years—expanding the program to something that approaches universal pre-K has proven impossible. The leading plan is to take a greater share of money each year from the state’s Land Grant Permanent Fund, which was worth $15.8 billion at the end of March. But that would require an amendment to the state Constitution first approved

Pre-K students in a mostly state-funded program from United Way get to work on development of social and emotional skills.
In an old building on the Aspen Community Magnet School campus just off Agua Fría Street, four dozen 4-year-olds are having breakfast. It’s surprisingly quiet—though not actually quiet, mind you, because four dozen 4-year-olds have a certain irrepressible energy. The fluorescent lights are either off or filtered by a blue cloth, and there’s a pair of long light strings from one wall to the other— the kind you might see in the backyard of someone who has their backyard together. Teachers are sitting among the kids, their knees scrunched up toward their chins. Food is served family-style, with most everything in the center of the table. It encourages socialization, a key aspect of the pre-kindergarten curriculum. Jennifer Salinas is a master teacher at the center on the Aspen campus, run by United Way of Santa Fe County. Her waiting list of 40-50 families would nearly double her current enrollment of 52. That’s part of why United Way is working for more early education seats, including plans to open new programs in the former Kaune Elementary School building—a vision that’s at least a year away.
The state pays for about 508 spots in Santa Fe, but a city study said there’s a need for 966 more.

It’s safe to say that the proand anti-tax campaigns, who together spent $3.2 million (split almost equally), knew Election Day would likely bring a defeat for the 2-cents-an-ounce tax. Of course, that conclusion was months in the making. As political action committees spent all that cash on mailers and radio ads and TV commercials, the winning strategy was one that cobbled together voters in different parts of the city who had very different reasons for

voting the way they did. In Districts 1 and 2—which Lonna Atkeson, director of UNM’s Center for the Study of Voting, Elections and Democracy, calls the “rich districts”on the city’s north and east sides—the Republican vote matters. (Yes, they do exist in Santa Fe.) Republicans are some of the most reliable voters in low-turnout elections. Because of the tax increase and foray of city government into a new area of service, it’s likely most of them voted against the tax. “It was a real test case,” Atkeson tells SFR about the election. “Cities need resources; how do they go about getting them? It was an experiment. Did it fail because the tax was too high or did it seem like they were grabbing too much?”

SUGAR It’s hard to tell without an exit poll, and it’s not clear either campaign paid for one. But Loveless Johnson III, the co-founder of the anti-tax political action committee Smart Progress New Mexico, thinks conservative voters in Districts 1 and 2 were joined in voting no by progressives who supported Bernie Sanders in the last presidential election. Sanders has been vocally opposed to sugary-drink taxes. “The ‘Berniecrats’ in Santa Fe make up a larger proportion of the electorate than they do in most other towns this size,” Johnson tells SFR at a coffee shop the morning after the election. “We knew that if we could ignite them, particularly in Districts 1 and 2 where a lot of them live, that they would make the difference.” Atkeson says that strategy makes sense, particularly in a special election where the presidential race is so recent and raw. “Everything we know about how people process and learn and make decisions; if they’re undecided and they hear someone in their party about whom they already project positive feelings and beliefs … that person’s view matters in informing their decision,” she says. Johnson tells SFR he thinks a lot of voters in Districts 3 and 4 were disenchanted when they discovered that the special election didn’t mean that expanded pre-K would be ready come Labor Day. “The mayor’s promise to those 1,000 families for this upcoming school year was not going to be fulfilled,” he says. “He knew that when he made that promise. And that’s why I think the ‘no’ vote was so overwhelming.” Further, the immediacy of a sugary-drink tax’s impact on a lower-income voter’s pocketbook carries a lot of weight at the polling place. The somewhat harder-to-envision better future promised by more widely available early childhood education programs may have simply faded. Southside and District 4 voters turned out to vote no in overwhelming numbers. Both Districts 3 and 4 doubled their turnout from the last election and even built on it significantly from the last big city election—when Javier Gonzales was voted into the may

or’s office—in 2014. Together, the two districts tallied a 70 percent vote against the tax. In District 1, meanwhile, the tax barely passed. Adding together the two “rich districts” Atkeson points out, the measure failed by 15 votes. Atkeson says the defeat could have important implications for a mayor who has acknowledged the draw of higher office. “That’s a huge fail,” she says bluntly. “When we think of things that go before local citizens like ballot initiatives, usually they pass. That’s painful for the mayor. He was basically slapped in the face by voters.” In the short term, it may sting, the UNM professor says. But she also won’t write down the political value of a good thumping. This is New Mexico—and America— where voters love a redemption story. “He’s willing to take risks and go for things that are important. If I think back to someone like Reagan—here’s someone who stood for something … and people really responded to that, because while they may not agree with him, they think, ‘At least we know where he stands and his commitment.’ “But on the other hand, he’s not in line with a lot of voters in a very progressive city. Are those the voters in a primary campaign?” she wonders. It’s up to Javier Gonzales to decide if he wants to find out.
Those kind of learning centers are popular with parents and popular with policymakers. “Just that overwhelming understanding across the political spectrum and in a variety of settings of the importance of those early years—that’s very, very heartening to see,” Salinas tells SFR. Pre-K is free for parents who get into United Way programs. There are no income requirements, and enrollment happens through a lottery. The center emphasizes serving lower-income families, but kids here come from all backgrounds. School starts at 8 am and ends at 3 pm, which means parents have most of the day free to work. Set aside the educational component of what happens here and it’s still easy to see why the program is so popular. “Expenses for childcare are really, really challenging to folks,” says Claire Dudley Chavez, executive vice president for policy and stakeholder engagement at the local United Way. The cost can easily mount to $1,000-$1,500 a month per child for a private early childhood education experience. “You can pay more in New Mexico for childcare than you can for in-state tuition at UNM,” she says. But the educational part of what happens in the programs is vital. Kids are learning how to learn at this age, experts say. How that happens strongly influences how students perform not just in the immediate years after pre-kindergarten, but all the way through high school and beyond. It can seem hard to grasp, because so much of what happens in a pre-K classroom looks like play. “Some of that is naturally occurring at this age, but it’s just about being aware of those moments when you can build on those skills that are naturally developing to help them grow even faster and further,” Salinas says. At this age, she points out, children are learning “to think about how they think.” If a student chooses to paint a flower red or draw an orange sky, a sharp teacher will ask why they did it. Educational experts say that kind of questioning and encouragement pays dividends for the states that choose to invest in early childhood education, and research backs it up. The O’Donnell report pegged an economic benefit to Santa Fe of $32.4 million for every twoyear group of students receiving free
pre-kindergarten. “Often times, before that, it was ‘Oh, you just play with the kids all day,’” Chavez tells SFR of the shift in thinking. To do everything it wants to in its pre-K programs, the United Way supplements the $6,450 per child that it gets from the state. Since New Mexico has educational requirements for teachers in state-funded pre-kindergarten programs, many of the instructors are pursuing—and paying for—their own education in addition to holding down a job. Public school pre-K programs pay better than most private ones, so to build continuity, the United Way matches school district salaries. Not only does the United Way attract hard-to-find educators that way, Salinas

says, “it also means the team we’ve built up here, we’ve all been working together for a really long time. So that translates into better-quality education. We work really well, we plan together and develop curriculum together. It all stacks up to developing a high-quality program.” In a classroom down the hall, that program plays out. Two teachers and about a dozen kids are building castles and a home for a plastic whale. At the other end of the room, another group sitting around a table expands to include the occasional student who pops in, then contracts as another student heads off to explore a different workstation. In an hour, they’ll come back together for story time and talk with each other about what they did this morning. It looks like the simplest thing in the world, but as Santa Fe is finding out, pre-K is a lot more complex than many people realize.

It’s Really Not About the Bike Ladies need to gear up, get outdoors and get through it now more than ever BY ELIZABETH MILLER e l i z a b e t h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
L
et’s start by clearing up a basic misconception: Mountain biking well isn’t solely a product of strength. In fact, it mandates at least an equal share of technique and balance. Lindsey Richter makes debunking that myth core to the women’s mountain biking workshops she runs, Ladies AllRide. She’ll bring that attitude to Santa Fe May 19 and 20 as part of this year’s Outside Bike & Brew Festival. Her clinics typically run two days, but she’s compressed the curriculum to two hours dedicated to honing body position and balance. “That’s the fundamental skill—how do I stay balanced on a bike that’s changing angles and bouncing around underneath me?” she says. “We’re teaching women how to focus on the details and how to understand technique, balance and movement to get your bike to do what you want, versus just muscle through.” That’s the main difference she sees between men and women riders. “Mountain biking in some ways suffers from its own marketing or its own image of being hardcore and difficult,” says Tim Fowler, executive director of cycling nonprofit Velo New Mexico and event director
for Bike & Brew. “New riders can be intimidated, and I think that’s a bit amplified for women. If all the riders you know are 10-, 20-year riders and super-fit, it’s tough to feel like you can hang.” Plus, like so many outdoor sports, it can feel like a bit of a boys’ club, and getting more people on board means making women feel welcome to give it a shot. Richter came to riding after a turn on the Survivor: Africa cast in 2001 threw her into the whirlwind of red carpets, parties and Los Angeles life, none of which was very kind to the Oregon native. She started racing just for fun, met a pro mountain biker and dove in with high-level riders and not a lot of advice. She runs Ladies AllRide clinics to spare other women that trial-by-hardest-trails experience. Allfemale groups can create a supportive community, she contends, as well as inspire a sense of “If she can, why can’t I?” Right now, she sees a real need for women to get better at pushing their own limits and testing their own fortitude. “The way our politics went this year, it scared a lot of people,” Richter says. “We just went back a few steps, and it made us all feel like we weren’t as capable and independent as we thought. … These sports are

the best way to show women how much strength we actually have.” She’s trying to use her voice to show the humorous, and human, sides of hardcore mountain bikers, posting photos popping wheelies and joking about the extra chins that move produces, and talking openly about her own struggles. “I’m suffering right now, going through a divorce, but I’m going to be OK—I’ve got my bike,” she tells SFR. Of course, a metaphor builds from there. “When you’re in trouble in life, or a bad place, or sad, sometimes you have to just look ahead and keep moving forward,” Richter says. “And that’s mountain biking. You get in trouble in a technical rock garden, the goal is not to bail or jump off. The goal is to keep moving.” Visuals that work for better biking— keep turning the wheels, fix your own flat tires, and lead with your heart—translate even when the bike is hung up for the day. “The number one thing is facing fear,” she says. “When you do something that physically scares you, and you figure out
how, and then you accomplish it, it gives you the sense of accomplishment that I think makes women ask themselves the question, ‘What else do I think I can’t do that I actually can do?’” This fourth iteration of Outside Bike & Brew is under new leadership with Fowler at the helm. It’s the main event for Velo New Mexico, which Fowler founded to boost biking events and bike-friendly consciousness around the state. Activities include bike demos at La Tierra Trail, a 30- or 50-mile Caja del Rio Gravel Grinder, and, for those really craving the burn, a guided ride that climbs 3,000 feet up the Winsor Trail. Recreational rides will tour local breweries and wineries. Bike films, concerts and an expo add to the action, much of it stationed in or near Railyard Park. The weekend’s events culminate with the longtime mainstay of the local cycling scene, the Santa Fe Century. OUTSIDE BIKE & BREW Thursday-Sunday, May 18-21.

La Petite Mort Get your kicks in small doses in Madrid Metallo Gallery shows what it might look like if visual arts could be shown in a minor key. Gallerist Cassidy Watt curates painters, sculptors, jewelers and bookbinders to present works that are skillful yet raw, aesthetically pleasing but slightly uncomfortable. And now, in the gallery’s seventh annual In Microscale miniature show, he has makers bring it down to 36 square inches (which could mean 3-by-12, 4-by-9, 1-by-36, and so on). Watt aims “not only to bring artists together, but also to challenge them,” he says. Like Melissa Morgan, who paints figurative, surreal, intense oils that are very large (think chiaroscuro bat-eared skeletons playing violin). Watt posits: “How does she shrink down the integrity of these amazing figurative oil paintings into a miniature, when they’re usually two or three feet tall?” In addition to roughly 200 small pieces from 60 different artists, Watt celebrates the grand opening of Metallo’s new space, slightly south on Highway 14 in a newer building with high ceilings and tons of light. For nine years the gallery lived in the center of town in an 80ishyear-old house (as do most of Madrid’s galleries), but the opportunity to move
to an airier, sleeker space got Watt excited. “It combines a higher-end gallery feel with Madrid funk,” he says. One of the main draws of Metallo’s old space was its welcoming front patio, always full of people. The new location replaces the nice yard with a nice porch, complete with views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. That outdoor area was “one of the first things that I tackled,” Watt says. “Instead of a sculpture garden, now it’s a sculpture porch. It’s all about the lingering. Sit down in the Adirondack chair, put your coffee on an end table.” And linger we shall, with indie music from Golden General. “They’re a Santa Fe-based band with original music,” Watt says, “and that’s what I want for my shows. I don’t necessarily want a cover band. … It’s a creative, immersive experience.” And s’mores over a campfire from Santa Fe startup The S’more Pit? Looks like we’re spending Saturday night in Madrid.

L
os Angeles-based indie rock band Campfire Cassettes comes across as a bit of an enigma. On the one hand, front man/songwriter Jonathan Buchanan writes short stories and poetry in his off-time, lending his lyricism an almost dreamy story-like quality akin to a titan like Jeff Mangum (of Neutral Milk Hotel). On the other hand, the upbeat and poppy folk-ish instrumentation mixed with Buchanan’s penchant for humor leans more toward the sultry sounds of AJJ (or Andrew Jackson Jihad if you’re nasty) or even the self-deprecating sad-sackery of The Magnetic Fields. This could potentially present issues of cognitive dissonance for fans of more serious indie fare, but for those who can pay close enough attention to the band, there’s a lot under the surface worth noting. “I think it’s a fun, light Trojan horse with some darker ideas underneath,” Buchanan says. “But we present it with this really sincere voice. There are cute harmonies and we sell this nice, light sound, but then the fun is in that juxtaposition.” Campfire Cassettes is a mere five years old, but in that time, Buchanan says, they’ve recorded an album a year and written somewhere in the neighborhood of 70 songs.
“I’ve just always written,” he says. “The songs just show up and they show up all the time, so all I have to do is sit down and write the words that come into my head— I’m not trying to get anything off my chest, and I don’t sit down with a purpose—I just get to express myself and reveal myself in the songwriting.” Most compositions are Buchanan’s (he started off as a solo project) but the more he’s grown comfortable with writing and performing with backup, the more the sound has evolved. “I basically show up with the songs, and they make them sound better,” he says of his bandmates. “I think the next album we write, we’ll try to write a little different, more collaborative.” If recently released single “Lemonade Stand” from forthcoming album Screecher can be used as a roadmap, the collaboration is already paying off. Like a folk-punk paen to less-than-serious bands like The Vandals or Nerf Herder, Buchanan and crew mull over the possibilities of opening an actual lemonade stand. “We can open up a lemonade stand/and post our shits on Instagram,” he sings, simultaneously drawing a laugh or two while almost inadvertently recapturing the youthful exuberance of such a project. Furthermore, you can practically track Campfire Cassettes’ evolution by listening to different releases (try visiting campfirecassettes.bandcamp.com for a

LA’s Campfire Cassettes keep it short and oh-so-sweet BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
We spoke with Michael Delheim from the Santa Fe Bandstand about what this year’s lineup might look like, and he says the exciting news is that 55 percent of the artists slated to perform are 100 percent new to the series. Delheim even has four nights planned for the Southside’s SWAN Park—90 acres of awesome in one new-ish location! Events run Wednesday July 5 through Friday Aug. 25, and we’ve gathered some of the highlights from this year.
primer). Whatever “it” is, they’ve got it. This is quirky and fun music, but far more worthwhile when truly listened to. Buchanan is a clever lyricist, not afraid to crack jokes without resorting to novelty and, similarly, not afraid to be open. This is a testament not only to the power of good songwriting, but to the shifting landscape of the music industry and self-made bands. “It’s sustainable and we have the power to do it all,” Buchanan says. “Write songs, it’s easy; record at home, it’s cost-effective; putting out CDs is cheap, putting things online is cheaper; records are expensive, but fun and still plausible, even as a smaller band. … It’s fun to be out there on tour, tooling around the country and meeting bands who are doing the same thing as us and just trying to get the music in front of as many ears as we possibly can.” You can be those very ears at Campfire Cassettes’ upcoming show in Madrid, and we’d highly recommend you go. Hidden gems like these don’t stay hidden for long, and you’ll definitely want to say you knew them when.

consumerism in first and third world nations. They titled the show Pick. When submissions from teen and young adult artists start to pour in (the age limit is 25), the next phase kicks in. Winston and Miller relish the process of debating which works will appear in the show. Miller, who helped conceptualize this year’s theme after studying true cost economics in one of his classes, was con-
cerned with the way artists were interpreting the concept. “There were a lot of works done on small cardboard pieces,” he says. “I was like, ‘Yes, be sustainable— but transform the material, do something interesting with it.’” They only had about 60 submissions, low for the program, and ultimately selected 16 artists. “We narrowed it down, and it was not hard,” Miller says. “I think

wenty-three high school students entered SITE Santa Fe’s Young Curators program at the beginning of the school year. It’s a big commitment, that includes weekly meetings to guide participants through every phase of curating a juried art exhibition. With just a few weeks until this year’s show, seven remaining students convene at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum’s Education Annex—the exhibit’s interim location while SITE is under renovation—to puzzle over the layout of the selected artworks. They are the grizzled survivors of a complicated collaborative process. “Curating is about so much more than putting art on walls,” says Madison Winston, a senior at Santa Fe Prep. “There’s public programming and fundraising and so much cooperation. A head curator gets a lot of credit, but there’s way more to it than that.” Over the course of the free program, the Young Curators get a comprehensive look at the day-today of SITE’s professional curators—and they’re judging themselves by those standards. Santa Fe, meet the city’s youngest and toughest art critics. “Sacrifice is crucial to making a complete product,” says Winston. “That is probably the one thing that is true for all curators, that they would agree on.” She and her best friend, Ryan Miller, a senior at Santa Fe High, are four-year veterans of Young Curators. The process has several distinct stages, starting with the selection of a theme. “We’ll literally spend the months of September through November, three months straight, arguing and feeling like we’re getting nowhere with a concept,” says Winston. This year, they drew inspiration from the fast-fashion documentary The True Cost, and challenged artists to reflect on the environmental perils of
it’s an important show, but I don’t think it’s going to be an aesthetically cohesive show.” To be fair, he’s just as critical of himself as he is of artists. “When I entered this program, I kind of took it for granted that everyone is extroverted and willing to speak up,” he says. “I noticed that when I stopped doing that, things got more dynamic.” Today, the Young Curators are meeting with SITE’s education coordinator Amanda Lee and Chief Curator Irene Hofmann. The work chosen for the show is mostly small, and they’re worried about adequately filling the Education Annex. They’ve decided to collaborate on an educational collage installation that will fill part of the space, and hopefully unite the rest of the work under the theme. “When you’re putting together a show, it’s important to look at the artist’s intent and the curator’s intent,” says Ezri Horne, a senior at New Mexico School for the Arts. “Sometimes those don’t align, but the piece still fits into the show.” When Horne was in seventh grade, her artwork was selected for a Young Curators exhibition. “It was the first time my work had been on a wall outside of school,” she says. “In Santa Fe, there’s not very many open calls for art that are directed towards youth.” Horne has participated in the program for three years. Her favorite piece in this year’s show is an assemblage by a 14-yearold artist. “It’s called ‘Happy Birthday to Me,’ and it’s this recycled tree with bottles,” says Horne. “He’s reflecting on the fate of the planet, and he’s pretty much saying, ‘This is the world I’m inheriting, it’s falling apart.’ There’s this genuine concern there that’s really sweet.” Horne is on the cusp of graduating and entering the chaotic adult world, but she seems optimistic. She says her work with Young Curators has helped confirm art’s transformative influence on society. “I think everyone in this group does have concerns about the world, and what we’re going to do with it, and how we’re going to change it,” she says. “Young Curators is a good platform for people to get together and talk about it.”

to let you fuck some other dude one time. Get clarity—crystal clarity—before proceeding. Finally, NOTHARD, there are other erectile dysfunction drugs out there, drugs that may not have the same side effects for your husband. And low to very low doses of Viagra— doses less likely to induce a headache—are effective for some men. Good luck.
My husband is nearly 20 years older than me, which was never an issue early in our relationship. However, for approximately the last eight years, we have not been able to have fulfilling sex because my husband can’t keep an erection for more than a few thrusts. I love my husband and I am committed to our family, but I miss full PIV sex. I’m still fairly young and I enjoy sex, but I feel like I am mourning the death of my sex life. I miss the intimate connection and powerful feeling of sex with a man. My husband tries to please me, but oral sex is just okay and toys don’t have the same effect. We have tried Viagra a few times, but it gave him a terrible headache. I try to brush it off because I don’t want to embarrass him. I am curious about casual relationships, but I fear they wouldn’t stay casual. Also, I would feel guilty being with another man even though my husband said I could do it one time. On one hand, I feel like I should be able to have a fulfilling sex life. But on the other hand, I don’t want to be a cheater. -Now On To Having Awkwardly Realistic Discussions It’s not cheating if you have your husband’s permission, NOTHARD, but fucking another man could still blow up your marriage—even if you manage to keep it casual. Story time: I knew this straight couple. They were good together, they loved each other, and they had a strong sexual connection. (Spoiler alert: my use of the past tense.) The woman was all about monogamy, but her boyfriend had always wanted to have a threesome. She didn’t want to be the reason he never got to do something he’d been fantasizing about since age 13, so she told her boyfriend that if the opportunity ever presented itself, he could go for it. So long as the sex was safe and he was honest with her, he could have a threesome one time. The opportunity presented itself, the sex was safe, he was honest—and my friend spent a week ricocheting between devastated and furious before finally dumping her devastated and flummoxed boyfriend. During a drunken postmortem, my friend told me she wanted her boyfriend to be able to do it but didn’t want him to actually do it. She didn’t want to be the reason he couldn’t; she wanted to be the reason he didn’t. So her permission to have a threesome “one time” was a test (one he didn’t know he was taking) and a trap (one he couldn’t escape from). I urged my friend to take her boyfriend back—if he would have her—but he’d touched another woman with the tip of his penis (two women, actually), which meant he didn’t love her the way she thought he did, the way she deserved to be loved, etc., and consequently he couldn’t be allowed to touch her with the tip of his penis ever again. Back to you, NOTHARD: My first reaction to your letter was “You’ve got your husband’s okay to fuck some other dude—go for it.” Then I reread your letter and thought, “Wait, this could be a test and a trap.” You say you’ve brushed off the issue to spare your husband’s feelings, but he may sense it’s an issue and, consciously or subconsciously, this is his way of finding out. If you take him up on his offer “one time,” and you make the mistake of being honest with him about it, he may be just as devastated as my friend was. So don’t take your husband up on his offer—not yet. Have a few more conversations about your sex life instead and address nonmonogamy/openness generally, not nonmonogamy/openness as a work-around for his dick. There may be some solo adventures he’d like to have, there may be invigorating new sexual adventures you could enjoy as a couple (maybe he’d love to go down on two women at once?), or he may rescind or restate his offer

Partner and I adopted a 2.5-year-old mutt a month ago. We are also trying to get pregnant and are having sex every day for 15-day stretches a month. Dog does NOT like being shut out—we love dog but do not love the idea of him being in the room. Should we get over it? Should dog get over it? What is dog/ human sexual privacy etiquette? -Don’t Oversee Getting It On I’m not into pups, human or otherwise, but I live with two actual dogs and, man, if those dogs could talk. Some dogs loudly object to their owners fucking, others don’t. If your dog barks when you’re fucking, I can see why you’d want to keep him out of the room. But if he just wants to curl up in a corner and lick his ass for a minute before dozing off, what’s the big deal?
I am a 30-year-old woman with some sexual hang-ups I’d like to get past for the sake of my husband. When I was 14, I was in a relationship with a guy who wasn’t nice to me. One particular incident sticks in my mind: He pulled my hair and tried to force my head down while I was saying no and trying to get away. He shoved me and called me a prude. Another time, he convinced me to let him go down on me (I finally agreed) but then bit me. I eventually broke up with him after spending too much time putting up with the crap. For a long time, I hated oral sex and freaked out at any sexual interaction. I had a great college boyfriend who always asked “Is this okay?” and was generally very attuned to any “no” signals I gave, which was a turn-on for me. I got over my past crappy experiences. My husband is all about what gives us both pleasure, but he has always been up-front about being interested in some (tame) kinky stuff. I am still turned on by “Is this okay?” and eye contact during sex, but any time we try to do anything even a little off the wall—me tied up, blindfolds, etc.—my ears start ringing and I feel like I can’t breathe. I’m trying to find a way to spice things up and fulfill my husband’s desires, and I cannot find a way around it. How do we move past “just” vanilla? -Reconsidering Otherwise Unlikely GGG Habits If your shitty early teenage sexual experiences—if those violations and sexual assaults—are still affecting you 16 years later, ROUGH, that suggests PTSD. Getting past this will be gradual, it may require therapy—counseling, a support group, a shrink. While you’re getting help, ROUGH, you and your partner can explore some mild non-vanilla moves. Mindful breathing, like the kids are into these days, may help, and so will incorporating some soothing sensory input, e.g., soft lighting, calming music, scented something-or-other if you enjoy scented somethings. And whatever your husband is doing—whatever you two are doing together—he can and should ask “Is this okay?” at every step. It turns you on and it makes you feel safe. You need to feel safe and in control. Slowly, slowly, slowly you may be able to advance to more aggressive play. It’s possible, however, that rough sex might be permanently off the table for you, ROUGH, and that’s not something you should feel guilty about. There are other ways to spice up your sex life, other (tame) kinks that don’t trigger you.

ANNE STAVELEY
Cara Levick refers to herself as an “events facilitator,” which basically means she dreams up experiences for the people of Santa Fe that generally tend to be as fleeting as they are unique. This makes her monthly Let’s Dance series of events (2:30 pm Saturday May 13. $10-$15. Dragon Rising Studios, 1512 Pacheco St., 428-0276), now in its sixth iteration and featuring Yesmance, a project featuring Levick and her partner, Paul Feathericci, all the more accessible. Instead of a one-off, Let’s Dance provides a safe and family-friendly alternative to club events as a means to unwind and, at the risk of sounding cheesy, acheive some sense of spiritual catharsis. We caught up with Levick to get more details. (Alex De Vore) What would you say you do? I like to create intentional and unusual experiences, and that comes out in a lot of different ways. I have a hard time doing things more than once, to be honest. I’m still trying to find words for what it is I do, because I really do cover a lot of ground. Can you give us an idea about the impetus behind Let’s Dance #6? For a long time I’ve wanted to do some kind of dance party in a different environment. In some ways, it’s relaxing; it starts out really mellow and meditative, but then it amps up and people are shredding and really dancing. It has a different kind of container than a dance party, it’s a place to really let go and there’s no judgment and people are just there to dance. In the beginning we called it a party, but it’s not really a party. So what is “yesmance?” We came up with it on our honeymoon. It’s the term we use when we do parties together and our DJ name when we DJ together. We really wanted to follow the ‘yes,’ like, how do we travel in way where we feel free while still being together?

FASHION REFORMATION (thereformation.com) is my not-at-all secret obsession. The style is wearable and mature, but cheeky. Their summer collection works for all the weddings and baby showers and day-drinking you have coming up. Each item on their site features information about how much water, carbon dioxide and waste was saved in its creation compared to others like it sold in the US.
Turns out that silk trend is good for the planet, too 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

pon hearing the terms “organic” or “fair-trade” applied to clothing, you may be tempted to pull a little eye roll. But, sadly, the fashion industry is truly hurting our planet. According to a Forbes Energy article by planetary biologist and energy specialist James Conca from last month, more than 150 billion garments are produced annually, and Americans throw away enough clothing to amount to 70 pounds for every citizen every year. Over 70 million trees are logged to create fibers like rayon annually, and a quarter of the planet’s chemicals exist solely to produce textiles. Plastic microfibers shed by synthetic textiles make their way into our water systems and eventually to the ocean, where they suffocate marine life. Even some processes surrounding natural fibers like cotton are harmful. As a crop grown with pesticides that also requires synthetic fertilizers, it’s damaging enough. And considering it takes roughly one pound of raw material to produce a single T-shirt, it’s mind-boggling that it’s such a common choice.
Fashion and clothing production are trend-driven markets, which have been boosted by online shopping and “fast fashion” brands like Forever 21, tempting us to purchase that skirt we’ll wear once, just because it’s only $6—and then it ends up in a landfill. And, because it’s made of polyester or nylon, which can take between 20 and 200 years to break down, it stays there for a good long while. When it finally does decompose, it releases harmful greenhouse gases. And maybe you wanted that $6 poly-blend skirt in a few colors. It’s not hard to see the damaging effects of dying processes. Just Google images of “clothing industry pollution” and you’ll find ochre rivers and foaming magenta streams that seem like they’re right out of a psychedelic dystopian film. When it comes to sustainable or “green” clothing, you want to think about what the garment is made from; natural
fibers are always best, but some are better than others. Linen is a lovely material, especially for the warmer weather. Or you can be really on-trend and rock a silk slip dress, knowing it’s a sustainable choice. Start simply: Next time you’re shopping, ask yourself some responsible questions like: Do I need this? Am I going to love and live in it, or is this something that’s going to live in a landfill? The “slow fashion” movement has pushed the industry to birth designers and labels focused on planet-friendly items, so you have more choices than ever when it comes to finding something that’s both sustainable and stylish.
CHRISTY DAWN (christydawn.com) is sustainable and classic. The Los Angeles-based label makes vintage-inspired frocks with deadstock fabric, which is left over from designers who overestimated their needs and found themselves with too many rolls. Really, they’re up-cycling geniuses and every dress is drool-worthy. EILEEN FISCHER (142 Lincoln Ave., Ste. 101, 986-0900) focuses on sustainability with the option to send gently worn items back to the company’s recycling program, and Fischer has always used natural fibers in her designs. She’s a champion of sustainable fashion and has been vocal about her mission to make fashion environmentally friendlier, and the local shop is full of linen choices and sets. Replacing every item in your closet with a sustainable choice would be costly, as none of these aforementioned labels are cheap. Let’s be honest: We all get rid of old garments and get new clothing. I am so, so guilty of this. But there are responsible ways to go about your spring closet-cleaning: Donate or sell to a second hand store or, when it comes to adding new items to your wardrobe, try just one sustainable piece this event season instead of three fast-fashion ones.

Just like your Cuban grandma made BY MICHAEL J WILSON t h e f o r k @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
W
hen I lived in New York, there was this small hole-in-the-wall Cuban restaurant in Brooklyn I’d frequent. It was painted bright turquoise outside and inside, the walls were covered in colorful art reflecting the culture of the food and its home country. I go back and forth on my feelings on leaving New York, and escaping to New Mexico was one of the more sane choices I’ve made in my life. I don’t miss much, but the food—that’s hard. Luckily, Santa Fe’s food scene is diverse. You can find a lot of great places representing a large swath of the globe’s foods. It shocks when it seems like something is missing, or when you bump headlong into the ceiling of early and/or strange hours. Enter David Michael Tardy and Robert McCormick’s Cuba Fe Home Cooking (1406 Third St., 204-4221) to fill the Cuba-sized hole in our lives. They rent the space three days a week, 11 am-5 pm Monday-Wednesday, from owner Balam Lemus (hence the large “Cocina de Balam” sign out front), as Lemus operates mostly in private events and out of a food cart on the Plaza. Cuba Fe is identifiable by the Cuban flag hanging outside and the always-open front door. Once inside, McCormick or Tardy will personally welcome you. The tables are covered in light tablecloths and music hums in the background. The menu is a hand-written board hung on the wall. It feels like a place that has been there for a long time; almost like that place in

Brooklyn. There was an immediate sense of family as McCormick, a Cuban-American whose mother is from Havana, directs me to the board and told me about their recent additions, the latest being picadillo, a sort of meat hash with vegetables and a fried egg on top. This joins chicharron and Cuban yellow rice and beans. I opt for the medianoche sandwich ($9) and a slice of flan ($4). The classic pork, ham, Swiss, mustard and pickle grilled sandwich is always a good choice, with flavors that combine in such a unique way as to create tang and comfort both. The Cuban sandwich is a mainstay that originated with Cuban immida. There are many grants in Florivariations, but all have ham and cheese on a simple baguette-like loaf. It’s an item that pops up on menus across town; none really get it right the way Cuba Fe does, though. The medianoche’s bread is amazing and flown in from Miami, McCormick’s hometown. It’s made with a challah-like egg dough with a sweet taste and is softer than the more common bread used in Cubanos, which has a small amount of lard in the dough (meaning it’s rarely good for more than a day). Medianoche, on the other hand, has an almost creamy light yellow

color, and I devoured it quickly. McCormick explains the process for their pork, which marinates in mojo for 12 hours overnight, be becoming tender enough to fall off the bone. Mojo is an amazing condiment, a blend of orange, garlic, oil, oregano and cumin. It’s a hidden secret in the kitchen and is just as good as a dip or marinade. Hunks of the prepared meat are pulled from the bone for either the sandwich or on its own as lechon with beans. The balance of the acidic marinade with the cheese and pickles is divine. As I finish, the flan appears. Rather than most sickly-sweet or flavorless versions, Cuba Fe’s is caramely and dense, the syrup a perfect gooey consistency. Cuba Fe’s big issues are hours and lo-
cation. They are really only a lunch place at the moment, but have promised a full breakfast menu soon. For now, they want to be a place people hang out, but operate in an off-the-beaten-path part of town with minimal hours. These drawbacks could overcome McCormick and Tardy’s clear excitement and talents in the kitchen—but hopefully not. The sandwiches are traditional and make the trek to the back streets off Cerrillos Road worth it and, honestly, Tardy and McCormick’s energy is addictive. It’s hard not to sit there listening to their plans and eating their food without wanting it to thrive. The pair is active on Facebook and update daily with new specials.

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.

+ SO FUN, SO
FUNNY, SO COOL - NOT AS IMPACTFUL AS THE FIRST FILM
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 exciting-yet-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. GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Directed by Gunn With Pratt, Saldana, Russell and Rooker Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 136 min.

HOUNDS OF LOVE

+ ACCOMPLISHED GOAL OF BEING UNSETTLING
- GRATUITOUS SEXUAL VIOLENCE
Whispered horror stories about what happens when angsty teen girls get into cars with strangers become harrowing, vivid screams in this Australian work of fiction. While a long setup with extreme closeups of ordinary actions and mundane objects coming in and out of focus sets the suspenseful scene, Hounds of Love quickly moves into a nail-bitter that had us looking away more than once. There’s a sickly electric energy between partners Evelyn (Emma Booth of Gods of Egypt) and John (Stephen Curry of a bunch of Aussie television shows you’ve never heard of), and it’s just a touchstone for their shared penchant to capture and torture young women on the suburban streets. Evelyn’s disarming charm puts the girls at ease—the last time they’ll ever feel that way. We’re more than squeamish about the way the story gratuitously rolls around in all the stereotypes of rape culture. The teen victims

wear short shorts and school uniform skirts. John is a skinny pervy-looking guy with a mustache. Evelyn’s a mousy, pained soul with a need for power. The presentation is graphic enough to burn into memory even after the credits are over. That squinty stare into a dark, dark realm is intended to be unsettling—and it accomplishes that goal. Young Saudi-born actress Ashleigh Cummings won an award at the Venice International Film Festival last September for her portrayal of teenaged Vicki, and it’s a well-deserved accolade, as she’s all in for this challenging part in the piece written and directed by Ben Young. The teen quickly realizes her only chance for survival is to break through to Evelyn—her captor who is, in many ways, a captive herself. Hold your breath for the possibility of a glimmer of empowerment. If the movie poster isn’t enough of a trigger warning, let us warn viewers that the film doesn’t just hint at sexual violence and emotional abuse. Oh, and there’s a dog, too.

Filmmaker Laura Poitras’ Risk brings us an inside look at Wikileaks founder Julian Assange.
RISK
8
+ EYE-OPENING AND RIVETING - SO DEPRESSING
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange remains a calculated mystery, even after filmmaker Laura Poitras’ eye-opening documentary Risk, a grim look at the man himself covering Wikileaks’ rise to prominence before Assange’s descent to Ecuadorian political asylum-seeker. Poitras is best known for Citizenfour, a similar documentary about NSA leaker Edward Snowden from 2014. That film was somewhat sympathetic; in Risk, however, the controversy surrounding Assange almost takes a backseat to his presence as public figure, changing the story Poitras set out to tell. It morphs from First Amendment freedoms and Assange’s role as a blurred-lines sometimes-hero into a rather bleak exposé on id and ego, the terrifying power and reach of the internet and a singular man seemingly lost in unattainable ideals and self-imposed loneliness who now hides behind the concepts of free will, free information and transparent government. Following 2010 allegations of sexual assault
that found Sweden attempting to extradite Assange from the UK, it becomes unclear whether the US is just trying to make way, in turn, for their own extradition of Assange from Sweden. Regardless, his glib demeanor in the face of the charges doesn’t do him any favors. Could this be where he begins to lose Poitras? Assange seems subsequently paranoid, a once-mighty icon to the hacking, radical and even liberal communities toppled from his throne of reproach. Of course, Trump singing his praises during the 2016 election didn’t much help him with image. And anyway, Assange seems alternately brave in a painfully idealistic, misguided sense, and all too happy to let the leakers who use his platform (such as the now-commuted former army private Chelsea Manning, who served seven years in prison for leaking classified intel) face the consequences while he dyes his hair and hides out, all the while espousing the sanctity of freedom. Wherever one might land in regards to Wikileaks and its founder, Poitras provides a heretofore-unseen window into their inner-workings. Just don’t be surprised if Assange can’t live up to his own hype. He is, after all, human. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts, NR, 94 min.
+ PISSING OFF ONE MILLION MOMS - MEN AND UNREALISTIC DISHWARE
Is your masculinity feeling fragile? Fear not, delicate dudes, for the fraternity of frivolous bros in Disney’s newest live-action movie-musical has enough beefcakes and bestiality for audiences of all ages. Director Bill Condon’s (Dreamgirls, Kinsey) adaptation of the 1991 animated film of the same name illustrates the story of a cursed narcissistic prince (Dan Stevens of Downton Abbey) and a thoughtful, young woman (Emma Watson) who inevitably falls in love despite the meager machismo and brutish advances of resident asshole Gaston (Luke Evans from Fast & Furious 6). With the help of his house staff, Lumière (Trainspotting’s Ewan McGregor), Cogsworth (Lord of the Rings’ Ian McKellen) and Mrs. Potts (Love Actually’s Emma Thompson), the Beast is able to prove he’s worthy of Belle’s love through manipulation and coercion. Spoiler alert: The two lead characters inevitably fall in love and Gaston is the winner of the No Belle Prize. The Beast, who never once gives his real name and doesn’t correct anyone when they call him such, tears Belle from her ailing father, falsely imprisons her, uses threats of violence and withholds food to convince her he’s “not like most guys,” only to triumphantly win her over with his extensive collection of leather-bound books. Modern romance. While the introduction of new songs, bright colors and subtle hints of Lafou’s queerness (portrayed by Book of Mormon’s Josh Gad) were distracting from the ragtag bunch of feeble fellas this film has to offer, Belle’s line rang true that “there must be more than this provincial life.” Perhaps maybe a plot point that doesn’t center around the alienation or objectification of women who make their own choices? Just a suggestion. Running a nearly unbearable two hours-plus, this film has all the fun-loving problematic characters we know and love from the original animated version. However, the best review for this film is probably a vague “ehhhh” noise and a noncommittal wiggly hand gesture. (Kendall Mac) Regal, Violet Crown, PG, 129 min.
comedy duo Key and Peele) strike out of the genre for which he’s known. But the film proves to be far more than a simple foray into uncharted territory from a talented comic mind, and instead becomes one of the most original and well-executed horror films in generations. A young photographer named Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) is set to visit his girlfriend’s parents for the weekend. “Do ... they know I’m black?” he asks her nervously beforehand, and we honestly believe Rose (Girls’ Allison Williams) when she answers, “They are not racist.” And at first this seems to be all well and good, though Allison’s doctor-father Dean (a brilliantly disarming Bradley Whitford) and therapist-mother Missy (a wildly discomforting Catherine Keener) seem a bit off, they still appear to at least be trying in that I-swear-I’m-totally-not-racist kind of way. But something is just not right at the Armitage house. It could be Rose’s obviously sociopathic brother Jeremy (Caleb Landry CONTINUED ON PAGE 41

SFR WARNING: PHOTO NOT FROM THE FILM KEDI, IT’S OUR MASCAT
Kedi is still playing, y’all. (This pic is of Thumper, who’s being fostered by an SFR employee for Felines and Friends. And he’s cute.) Jones), a far-too-chipper maid (Betty Gabriel) who stands silently smiling at all times or the ominous and terrifying groundskeeper (Marcus Henderson) who speaks like he just so totally has something to hide. Regardless, it’s creepy as hell up in there, but Chris seems to be the only one who can feel it. Get Out shines in its metered examination of tokenism, conditioned racism and even our societal expectations. Peele neatly pulls this off without ever resorting to overt explanations, however, instead allowing the actions of its characters to slowly unfold the goings-on at Rose’s spooky family home. He trusts his audience will be patient, which is a sadly lacking quality of modern filmmaking. By the time all is revealed, we share in Chris’ realization that it may be too late, but we savor the slow burn right up to the shocking truth. (ADV) Regal, R, 103 min.
Through this, Kedi sneakily becomes perhaps more about the humans in the cats’ lives rather than the opposite. A sailor, for instance, who once lost everything but was saved by a cat who led him to a hidden cache of money, spends his days roaming the port feeding feral kittens with a bottle. Elsewhere, a baker forms an unlikely alliance with a cat who unwittingly gives his life meaning beyond his work. In a nearby home packed to the rafters with countless strays, two women cook for and feed dozens of street cats daily. Even those who aren’t in love with these fascinating creatures will find a captivating human story here. And rather than linger on the more cutesy aspects of felines, Kedi instead proves an inspiring treatise on the enriching aspects of animals and a satisfying glimpse into the beauty of the city itself. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts, Violet Crown, NR, 80 min.

+ NOT JUST FOR CAT LOVERS - COULD HAVE BEEN LONGER
The camera moves along the ancient streets of Istanbul, following a particularly adorable orange cat. Diners at streetside cafés hand over treats. Passersby respectfully step around her. Nearby, a clever striped fellow scales a three-story building to visit a human friend in her apartment. At an outdoor flea market across town, young and old cats alike sleep amongst the wares. The camera pans along the port and cranes up over the gorgeous Golden Horn, revealing the massive labyrinth of a city. This is Kedi, a new documentary on the street cats of Istanbul from director Ceyda Torun, and it is awe-inspiring. We follow the seemingly ordinary lives of various cats who live throughout the sprawling Turkish metropolis on the sea. From a rather polite comrade who haunts a deli patio (but is never so rude as to go inside), a beat-up old tabby who rules her perceived turf with an iron paw, a portside puffer who keeps the mouse population under control and beyond, the brief windows into the lives of cats come together to prove one thing: Cats are beloved in Istanbul.

Week of May 10th
ARIES (March 21-April 19) The process by which Zoo Jeans are manufactured is unusual. First, workers wrap and secure sheets of denim around car tires or big rubber balls, and take their raw creations to the Kamine Zoo in Hitachi City, Japan. There the denim-swaddled objects are thrown into pits where tigers or lions live. As the beasts roughhouse with their toys, they rip holes in the cloth. Later, the material is retrieved and used to sew the jeans. Might this story prove inspirational for you in the coming weeks? I suspect it will. Here’s one possibility: You could arrange for something wild to play a role in shaping an influence you will have an intimate connection with.

Check out the “butterflies-inflight” position or the “spinning wheel of roses” maneuver. Try the “hum-and-chuckle kissing dare” or the “churning radiance while riding the rain cloud” move. Or just invent your own variations and give them funny names that add to the adventure.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) “I don’t want to be at the mercy of my emotions,” said Irish writer Oscar Wilde. “I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.” In my opinion, that may be one of the most radical vows ever formulated. Is it even possible for us human beings to gracefully manage our unruly flow of feelings? What you do in the coming weeks could provide evidence that the answer to that question might be yes. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you are now in a position to learn more about this high art than ever before. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Africa’s highest mountain is Mount Kilimanjaro. Though it’s near the equator, its peak is covered year-round with glaciers. In 2001, scientists predicted that global warming would melt them all by 2015. But that hasn’t happened. The ice cap is still receding slowly. It could endure for a while, even though it will eventually disappear. Let’s borrow this scenario as a metaphor for your use, Virgo. First, consider the possibility that a certain thaw in your personal sphere isn’t unfolding as quickly as you anticipated. Second, ruminate on the likelihood that it will, however, ultimately come to pass. Third, adjust your plans accordingly. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Will sex be humdrum and predictable in the coming weeks? No! On the contrary. Your interest in wandering out to the frontiers of erotic play could rise quite high. You may be animated and
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) According to my lyrical analysis of the astrological omens, here are examples of the kinds of experiences you might encounter in the next 21 days: 1. interludes that reawaken memories of the first time you fell in love; 2. people who act like helpful, moon-drunk angels just in the nick of time; 3. healing music or provocative art that stirs a secret part of you—a sweet spot you had barely been aware of; 4. an urge arising in your curious heart to speak the words, “I invite lost and exiled beauty back into my life.” PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Ex-baseball player Eric DuBose was pulled over by Florida cops who spotted him driving his car erratically. They required him to submit to a few tests, hoping to determine whether he had consumed too much alcohol. “Can you recite the alphabet?” they asked. “I’m from the great state of Alabama,” DuBose replied, “and they have a different alphabet there.” I suggest, Pisces, that you try similar gambits whenever you find yourself in odd interludes or tricky transitions during the coming days—which I suspect will happen more than usual. Answer the questions you want to answer rather than the ones you’re asked, for example. Make jokes that change the subject. Use the powers of distraction and postponement. You’ll need extra slack, so seize it! Homework: If you knew you were going to live to 100, what would you do differently in the next five years? Testify at Freewillastrology.com.
