From the Ingles Studio this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Today is Wednesday, December 18th and I'm Keith Ippolito. County, Cities Meeting Wednesday to Talk New Tax Option The Cobb County Board of Commissioners has scheduled a special meeting to discuss the implications of House Bill 581, a new property tax law approved by Georgia voters. HB581 introduces a statewide floating homestead exemption aimed at altering property tax systems, alongside an optional 1% Floating Local Option Sales Tax (FLOST). Local governments must decide by March 1 whether to opt-in or out of the exemption. Those opting out cannot impose a FLOST and must meet strict requirements, including public advertising, three public hearings, and passing a resolution before the deadline. The meeting, set for 10 a.m. Wednesday at 100 Cherokee Street in Marietta, will bring together representatives from Cobb County and its municipalities to address these changes. Marietta Mayor Steve Tumlin confirmed city representation, and Commissioner Keli Gambrill stated all seven city leaders were invited to participate in this critical discussion on the county’s tax policy direction.

The incident took place at the intersection of Richard D. Sailors Parkway and Old Lost Mountain Road. Brown was driving east in a Toyota Corolla, while a 29-year-old woman was driving a Ford Mustang in the same direction. Simultaneously, a 26-year-old man was heading west in a Hyundai Elantra.

Read more about this at mdjonline.com   Story 2: hearing   Two Cobb County residents have sought to join a lawsuit against the Cobb Board of Commissioners over the redrawing of commission district boundaries. Cobb Commissioner Keli Gambrill, a Republican, initiated the lawsuits in response to the Democratic majority's use of "home rule" powers to redraw their district lines, specifically to benefit Commissioner Jerica Richardson. The county motioned to dismiss the case because Gambrill does not reside in the district affected. However, Gambrill has now requested the court to include Catherine and David Floam as plaintiffs, arguing that they were previously in Gambrill's district but were moved to District 3 due to the county's maps. Cobb County attorneys countered that the Floams lack standing. Both sides await resolution through the court process.   Story 3: parade   The city of Marietta is hosting its annual "4th in the Park Celebration" today, starting with the "Let Freedom Ring" parade at 10 a.m. The parade will have over 2,000 participants and is expected to draw a crowd of around 30,000 people. The parade route will be closed 45 minutes before the event, and roads around Glover Park will remain closed all day. The parade will start on Roswell Street, pass through Marietta Square, and end at Cherokee Street and North Marietta Parkway. The grand marshal of the parade is Charlie Duncan, a 104-year-old World War II veteran. The festivities will include arts and crafts, a kids zone, food, and free concerts featuring Scott Thompson, the Atlanta Concert Band, and the Patriarchs Band. The headline concert at 8 p.m. will feature the Atlanta-based band Boogilicious, and fireworks will be launched from the parking lot of First United Methodist Church at around 9:30 p.m. Due to limited parking, attendees are encouraged to use cabs or ride-sharing services, with the designated drop-off and pick-up location at the intersection of Lawrence and Waddell streets.........….we'll be right back   Break: Dayco - ESOG - jrm   STORY 4: ag   Georgia's agriculture commissioner, Tyler Harper, emphasized the significant role farmers play in the lives of Georgians during a speech at the Cobb County Republican Women's Club luncheon. He reminded attendees that agriculture is the state's largest industry, contributing over $70 billion and more than 340,000 jobs to the economy. Harper, a seventh-generation farmer, highlighted the values of hard work, faith, and integrity instilled in him through his upbringing. He praised a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that ruled against the EPA's expansive regulatory efforts in the Waters of the United States (WOTUS) case, stating that it violated property rights and gave the federal government excessive control over resources. Harper believes that farmers are best equipped to manage their own land and emphasizes the importance of sustainability in small, family farms.     STORY 5: prize   The winner and finalists of the 10th annual Poet Laureate's Prize in Georgia have been announced by Chelsea Rathburn, the state's Poet Laureate, in collaboration with the Georgia Council for the Arts.

The purpose of these gatherings is to connect with constituents in District 1, enjoy nature together, and stay updated on the happenings in the northwest Cobb community.

The book explores influential Georgians, including President Jimmy Carter and Martin Luther King Jr., covering athletes, politicians, activists, and more. Young, a history enthusiast, wrote the book after a long career in journalism and serving as a curator for the Georgia Historical Society. The book features two Cobb residents, Bill Shipp and Gen.

The audience applauded his speech, and readers found pride and inspiration in learning about notable Georgians.   Story 8: titles   Tahir Hines, a rising senior at Allatoona High School, fulfilled his track and field dreams by winning the Class 6A state championships in discus and shot put. He was named the Cobb County Boys Track and Field Athlete of the Year. Hines began his track and field journey at the age of 8 and transitioned from soccer. While the repetitive nature of the sport challenged him mentally, he learned the importance of pacing himself and taking breaks to prevent burnout. Hines has gained a deep appreciation for the sport and sees it as a privilege. He aims to repeat as a state champion and break the state records in shot put and discus.   Story 9: jamil   McCeachern alum redshirt junior Jamil Burroughs, a defensive lineman for the Alabama Crimson Tide, has entered the transfer portal.

Police name suspects in racially motivated battery near KSU

Kennesaw police named two men Friday in the alleged beating of a Kennesaw State University student near the school's main campus last week. According to a release, Gauge Dakota Stanley of Chatsworth and Kole Zuba Reasoner of Flowery Branch were charged with battery, a misdemeanor, and aggravated battery, a felony. Police spokesperson David Buchanan said Jalique Rosemund, who is Black, was attacked at the West 22 apartment complex on Cherokee Street in Kennesaw, about 1 mile west of the university's campus, around midnight January 22. Rosemund said his attackers were two white men who repeatedly called him the N-word, according to a report by the responding officer. Rosemund was treated at a nearby hospital, according to the report. Kennesaw police thanked KSU police and the public in the release, stating without tips from the public “these arrests would not have been possible.” However, neither suspect had been booked into Cobb County jail as of Sunday evening. A man is being held without bond in the Cobb County jail after authorities say he tried to rape a 12-year-old girl in Shaw Park. According to a warrant filed by Cobb police, the victim said a man approached her while she was walking through the woods in the north Marietta park around 5 p.m. She said he offered her a water bottle that appeared to be sealed. The warrant says that “after drinking from the bottle she began to feel dizzy and tingle.” Then the man pulled out a knife, threatened her, and sexually assaulted her, according to the warrant. Cobb police arrested Douglas Darch on January 22 and connected him to the alleged attack. Darch, who is in his late 50s and homeless according to jail records, is charged with five felonies: aggravated assault with attempt to rape, child molestation, aggravated child molestation, child cruelty, and making terroristic threats. Dwight “Ike” Reighard, CEO of MUST Ministries, has been named the Cobb County Citizen of the Year.  Reighard received the award, presented by the Marietta Daily Journal, at the Cobb Chamber of Commerce's annual dinner celebration Saturday evening at the Cobb Galleria Centre. Following in the footsteps of past honorees, Reighard was recognized for his leadership of a ministry which provides services to some 60,000 people a year struggling in poverty. He became head of MUST Ministries in 2011. During his tenure, the Marietta-based charity launched its mobile pantry, which served 17,000 families in its first year, and the MUST Hope House shelter in Marietta. The 43,000 facility opened last year and features 136 beds and 36 respite beds used during inclement weather, a chapel, a rooftop retreat for families and a large dining hall. Reighard has often recounted how hungry hobos from the nearby Inman railway yard in Atlanta would stray into his childhood backyard seeking a handout. His mother never gave money, but would offer food and ice tea in mason jars to those who drifted onto their property. Word of the Reighards' generosity spread through the hobo village alongside the railroad tracks. Visits became more frequent. Neighbors grew upset, telling Reighard's mother she was going to be hurt or get someone else hurt. Her reply was that these men were somebody's son, father or brother and that if her son, father or brother were in trouble, she would hope someone would help them. As a child of the Great Depression, he said his mother never forgot how quickly one's fortunes can change. Brian Snitker is set to remain the Atlanta Braves' manager through his 70th birthday after agreeing to contract extension through the 2025 season Friday. The 67-year-old Snitker guided the team to 101 wins and its fifth consecutive NL East title last season, one year after helping the Braves win the fourth World Series title in franchise history. Snitker finished third in the Manager of the Year voting in 2022, after winning the award in 2018. He also was a finalist for the honor in 2019 and finished fourth in 2020 and 2021. Snitker completed his 46th season in the Braves' organization in 2022, and his sixth full campaign as the Braves manager. He took over on an interim basis following the firing of Fredi Gonzalez on May 17, 2016, then was named the permanent manager October 11 of the same year. The native of Decatur, Illinois, first joined the Braves as a non-drafted free agent in 1977. He spent four years as a player before beginning his managerial career at 26 years old with the Class A Anderson Braves in 1982. Snitker went on to manage for 20 seasons in the Braves' system, compiling a 1,301-1,309 record with 10 different affiliates. He also had three tours of duty on the major league staff as a coach in 1985 and again from 1988-90 and 2007-13.  Dozens of trains ran simultaneously at full speed in downtown Kennesaw on Saturday. No crashes resulted because of careful planning — with each train running on a closed loop. The Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History in downtown Kennesaw held its annual “Trains, Trains, Trains!” event over the weekend. The event began in 2010 when the museum's executive director, Richard Banz, had the idea for the event after taking his niece to a train show. The event featured 10 model train layouts built by local hobbyists. Three of the layouts were interactive, allowing visitors to control the trains. The model trains on display ranged from the extremely small “z gauge” trains to huge, one-sixth-scale models. The Smithsonian-affiliated museum also houses three real locomotives as part of its permanent collection, including the famed General. The price of admission included access to the whole museum in addition to the model trains, which were interspersed throughout the exhibits. Banz said family educational experiences are important for children, and the event is ultimately about sharing the joy of trains. Banz, who has been a model train hobbyist since he got his first train set as a child, said Kennesaw's model train event is the only one he knows of designed with families and children in mind. Greg Teague waited an extra year for his turn, but it has finally come. Teague, CEO of Croy Engineering, is the Cobb Chamber of Commerce's 2023 chairman, a role he was set to fill in 2022 before the pandemic threw things a bit off course. The chamber's 2022 chairwoman, Britt Fleck, passed the baton to Teague at the chamber's 81st annual dinner Saturday night. A graduate of Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering, now a part of Kennesaw State University, Teague has experience in both the public and private sectors. He was the city engineer and public works director for the city of Marietta before moving onto Marietta-based construction firm Traton Homes. After a stint there, he moved to Croy in 2007. With his business partners Eddie Wade and Adam Langley, Teague purchased the company, which employs 120 people and has offices in Marietta, Chattanooga, Tennessee and Huntsville, Alabama, from founder Jim Croy, Sr., last year. Teague lives in Elijay with his wife Sabrina. They have three daughters: Madison, Sydney and Georgia. #CobbCounty #Georgia #LocalNews      -            -            -            -            -            The Marietta Daily Journal Podcast is local news for Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, and all of Cobb County.             Subscribe today, so you don't miss an episode! MDJOnline            Register Here for your essential digital news.            https://www.chattahoocheetech.edu/  https://cuofga.org/ https://www.esogrepair.com/ https://www.drakerealty.com/           Find additional episodes of the MDJ Podcast here.             This Podcast was produced and published for the Marietta Daily Journal and MDJ Online by BG Ad Group   For more information be sure to visit https://www.bgpodcastnetwork.com        See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Police investigate racist assault

The Kennesaw Police Department is investigating an alleged assault against a man near the Kennesaw State University campus. The incident happened in the West 22 apartment complex, located where Cherokee Street and McCollum Parkway meet, just after midnight on January 22, according to Officer David Buchanan, Kennesaw Police spokesman. Jalique Rosemond, who is Black, alleged he was beaten by two white men who repeatedly called him the N-word, according to a report about the incident issued by Officer Seager, who responded to the call. Seager's report added that Rosemond had a bloody nose, a detail also included in a report from another Kennesaw police officer who responded to the scene. Buchanan said in the release that a detective has been in touch with Rosemond since Tuesday, adding that the suspects in the case left the complex following the alleged assault. Police are asking residents with any information about the incident to call Kennesaw Police Criminal Investigations Division or Crime Stoppers. An ethics complaint has been filed against Commissioner Jerica Richardson over an alleged conflict of interest in the county's ongoing redistricting controversy. Filed Monday by Debbie Fisher, who is listed as vice chairman of Party and Grassroots Development on the Cobb Republican Party's website, the complaint accuses Richardson of violating county rules in voting twice last year to support the county's home rule redistricting effort, which is aimed at redrawing the commission district boundaries to keep Richardson in office. Filed with the Cobb Board of Ethics, the complaint asks for a judge to void those two votes by Richardson. Doing so would leave the split of the vote on the home rule effort at 2-2 between the board's Democrats and Republicans. The complaint takes aim at a political group — For Which It Stance — which was created last year by Richardson and east Cobb's Mindy Seger to support her bid to keep her seat. Richardson's interest in the group means she not only had a personal conflict of interest in the redistricting votes, Fisher alleges, but a financial one as well. For Which It Stance was formed in March 2022, about five weeks after the Republican-sponsored district map which drew Richardson out of her seat was filed in the General Assembly. Richardson is listed as the nonprofit's registered agent, while Seger is its executive director. Since the Board of Commissioners' three Democrats began their home rule effort in the fall, the group has called on residents to support Richardson, solicited donations on its website, and is selling branded merchandise (T-shirts, tote bags and the like). And on October 11 and 25, when the Board of Commissioners took its two votes to assert home rule and redraw the lines, audience members bore signs from the nonprofit. The allegations around For Which It Stance were previously raised by Republican Commissioner Keli Gambrill, who said Richardson should have disclosed the nonprofit when the board met in executive session last year to discuss the home rule challenge. In the past, Richardson has said that she did not need to disclose the nonprofit, and that Gambrill should have been aware of it. Marietta's LiveSafe Resources has announced its 2023 honorees for the group's 38th Tribute to Women of Achievement. Each year, the organization honors 15 women leaders, nominated by their peers, who demonstrate outstanding leadership in their personal, professional and volunteer endeavors.

Scoot Henderson became the Kell boys basketball team's all-time leading scorer, led it to the Class AAAAAA state championship game and wowed most basketball experts in the process. Henderson's constant success was one of the reasons he made the unprecedented move two years ago to reclassify, graduate early and become the youngest professional basketball player in U.S. history at the age of 17. Now, after nearly two years in the NBA's developmental G League and making himself into the presumptive Number 2 pick in this summer's NBA draft, Henderson will be recognized by Kell for his trailblazing efforts and effect on its program. The school will retire Henderson's Number 0 jersey in a ceremony between Kell's girls and boys basketball games against Chattahoochee on Tuesday. Kell boys coach Jermaine Sellers said the timing worked out where the Longhorns had a home game and Henderson's team, the Las Vegas-based G League Ignite, had a nine-day break to allow him time to return home. It will be particularly special evening for the Henderson family, with Scoot not be the only sibling having their jersey retired. During the same ceremony, his sister, Crystal, will also be honored with the retirement of her Number 30. Crystal Henderson, who supplanted her brother as the all-time leading scorer in Kell basketball history — boys or girls — has led the Longhorns to a 15-5 overall record and 8-0 mark in Region six five A. Kell is Number 1 in Class five A, coming off a game against Cambridge in which she had 37 points and 13 rebounds. The retirement ceremony is expected to be at approximately 7:15 p.m. Tuesday, following the completion of the girls game. Sellers said the NBA and the G League asked to be involved in the evening, so the College Park Skyhawks — the Atlanta Hawks' affiliate — will be represented. Its dance team will perform at halftime of the girls game, and there will be shirt giveaways. In its quest to build a looping transit and trail network around Cobb's bustling commercial district, the Cumberland Community Improvement District is shaking every funding tree it can find. The CID's governing board agreed Thursday to ante up about $1.7 million in the hopes of securing a lucrative federal grant to advance the project, known as the Cumberland Sweep. If successful, the U.S. Department of Transportation would provide about $7 million toward planning and design of the Sweep which includes a self-driving shuttle, to circle the commercial district. The DOT's RAISE program — formerly known as BUILD and TIGER under past federal administrations — is expected to dole out nearly $2.3 billion this coming year for transportation and infrastructure projects. But the winners are an exclusive club; no more than a few dozen projects are greenlit nationwide each year. In recent years, only a handful of projects in Georgia have received funding. CID Executive Director Kim Menefee said this will be the third time the organization has sought the grant. Menefee said she's been in talks with Cobb's federal lawmakers about backing the application, who have already directed some funding to the Sweep in the form of congressional earmarks and submitted letters of support for the grant application. #CobbCounty #Georgia #LocalNews      -            -            -            -            -            The Marietta Daily Journal Podcast is local news for Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, and all of Cobb County.             Subscribe today, so you don't miss an episode! MDJOnline            Register Here for your essential digital news.            https://www.chattahoocheetech.edu/  https://cuofga.org/ https://www.esogrepair.com/ https://www.drakerealty.com/           Find additional episodes of the MDJ Podcast here.             This Podcast was produced and published for the Marietta Daily Journal and MDJ Online by BG Ad Group   For more information be sure to visit https://www.bgpodcastnetwork.com        See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

North Cobb Rotary helps shed light on sex trafficking

Marietta Daily Journal Podcast

Sex trafficking is ubiquitous, even though many people fail to notice it. That is why the Rotary Club of North Cobb hosted “The Truth About Sex Trafficking In Our Community,” a forum this week that brought together Cobb leaders, concerned citizens and groups combating sex trafficking in the county and across Georgia. North Cobb Rotary member Hicks Malonson is an ambassador for Rescuing Hope, a Marietta-based nonprofit fighting sex trafficking through educational programming and support for survivors. Human trafficking has gained greater attention in Georgia since 2019, when Governor Brian Kemp established the Georgians for Refuge, Action, Compassion, and Education Commission, chaired by his wife, Georgia first lady Marty Kemp. The commission, composed of public officials, experts on human trafficking, and representatives from law enforcement and advocacy groups, is tasked with combating human trafficking in the state. Georgia's heightened focus on the issue extends to law enforcement agencies. Georgia Assistant Attorney General Kaitlyn Salinas works for Georgia's statewide Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit, created in 2019 as the first of its kind in the U.S. Salinas, speaking at the forum, noted that it is far less likely nowadays for traffickers to walk through an airport or hotel with large quantities of cocaine, but it is much easier for them to walk through either with a young person they are trafficking. Susan Norris, the executive director of Rescuing Hope and a member of the GRACE commission, moderated a panel of local “first responders” to human trafficking at Tuesday's forum. Ana Murphy, the school social work supervisor for the Cobb County School District, said it is difficult to identify whether a student is being trafficked. She noted it is “a major red flag for us” when students are frequently absent from school, a trend that worsened with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Norris said one study showed a 40% jump in trafficking during the pandemic because students were online, not only in class, but socializing with other students and, potentially, traffickers. Norris encouraged attendees to become involved in volunteering for Rescuing Hope and other anti-trafficking organizations at the forum, like Out of Darkness (www.outofdarkness.org), Wellspring Living (www.wellspringliving.org) and The Table on Delk (www.thetableondelk.org).  More information about Rescuing Hope can be found at www.rescuinghope.com. For help or to report suspicions of human trafficking call 911, the Georgia Coalition to Combat Human Trafficking, or the National Human Trafficking Hotline. Kennesaw State University's Wellstar School of Nursing has received a federal grant to teach graduate students how to help patients break increasingly deadly opioid addictions. Assistant professor of nursing Kathy Barnett and Wellstar School of Nursing Associate Director of Graduate Programs Susan Beidler teamed to earn the nearly $729,000 grant, which comes from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, a subsidiary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Barnett and Beidler will implement curricular revisions in the KSU Masters of Science in Nursing programs that address decreasing stigma and increasing access to early interventions for substance use disorders. According to data from the Georgia Department of Public Health, drug overdose deaths increased by 61% from 2019 to 2021, and fentanyl-involved overdose deaths increased by 230%, illustrating the urgent need for more medical training in helping people with opioid addiction. Opioids include many prescription pain medicines, fentanyl and the illegal drug heroin. In a theatrical, winding speech interlaced with musical tie-ins and clips from “Back to the Future,” Mayor Derek Easterling recapped his seven years in office before a crowd of civic and business leaders this week. Easterling, first elected in 2015, was reelected without opposition in 2019. This year marks the final year of his second term. The mayor told the MDJ after speaking that he intends to run for a third term this November. Ever the showman, Easterling emerged ahead of his speech to the Kennesaw Business Association to the tune of “Rockstar” by Nickelback, carrying a guitar and clad in jeans, cowboy boots and a leather jacket. With his back to the crowd, the speakers then began to blare the opening riff of “Back in Black” by AC/DC as Easterling pretended to play guitar. The mayor then shook his head and yelled for the music to stop. The same sequence then played out with Ozzy Osbourne's “Crazy Train,” and Guns N' Roses' “Sweet Child O' Mine.” Finally, City Manager Jeff Drobney, dressed as Doc Brown from “Back to the Future,” yelled out “Mayor, you've got to get back to the future.” Easterling then began speaking. In his State of the City address, Easterling ticked through a laundry list of developments the city has seen during his time in office, recapping improvements to parks, roads and other infrastructure; new businesses and housing developments; changes to city services and systems; and more. Those developments were listed chronologically, and as the mayor started speaking about a new year, a “Back to the Future” clip would be played on the screen. To accompany the theme, the city also procured a DMC DeLorean, which was parked outside the Adams Park Recreation Center, where Easterling spoke.  Easterling said some of the things the city can look forward to this year are the opening of the Depot Park amphitheater, progress on a new public safety center, the start of a Cherokee Street streetscape project, improvements to Ben King Road and more. McEachern pulled away early and never looked back as the Indians made the short trip to defeated archrival Hillgrove 68-57 in Tuesday's Region 3 6A opener. McEachern reversed an early Hillgrove advantage and took control of the game with an 18-0 run that began late in the first quarter and lasted until midway through the second quarter. The Indians went on to outscore the Hawks 42-20 through the second and third quarters combined. Though the win gave McEachern an early leg up in the region standings, for coach Tremayne Anchrum Sr., and his players, getting the win over their crosstown rival was more significant. Moses Hipps scored 15 points and Ace Bailey added 14 points to lead McEachern. McEachern went on to outscore Hillgrove 23-11 in the second quarter to take a 40-32 halftime lead, then outscored the Hawks 19-9 in the third quarter to widen its advantage to 59-41. Hillgrove did narrow the gap a little bit at the end, but the Hawks were only able to get as close as 10 points — 61-51 — with 5:00 remaining in the game. The Marietta Board of Education voted unanimously this week to elect Kerry Minervini of Ward 6 as the chair for another year. Minervini, a real estate agent who was first elected in 2017, also served as chair last year. Unlike the Cobb County Board of Education, Marietta school board members can serve consecutive terms as chair. The board also unanimously elected Ward 1's Jeff DeJarnett as vice chair. DeJarnett replaces Jason Waters of Ward 2 in the role. Board attorney Clem Doyle distributed index cards to the board members, each of whom privately wrote down their nomination for chair and vice chair. Doyle then announced the results — seven nominations for Minervini for chair, seven nominations for DeJarnett as vice chair. Votes were then held to approve both appointments. The chair and vice chair elections stand in contrast to those of the Cobb school board last week, where members split along party lines, with the Republican majority winning out. Marietta's school board is nonpartisan. The Marietta board elected its leaders at the top of its first work session of the year. In other action, the board reviewed several items it will vote on at its Jan. 17 meeting.  South Cobb welcomed a new community garden this week — or, at least, the beginnings of one. A coalition of agricultural, gardening, and healthcare groups gathered off Powder Springs Road at the Cobb County Farm Bureau offices. There, partners broke ground on a garden that's intended to help out with food insecurity and healthier living. The Wellness Garden, as it will be known, so far is simply a lawn next to the Farm Bureau with a few posts sunk for a fence. But it will one day feature 15 garden beds — each 12 feet by four feet — along with a pollinator garden and hoop house. Unlike some community gardens, which are merely shared spaces for residents to grow their own produce, the Wellness Garden will be geared specifically toward providing food to those in need and spreading the word on how to use locally-grown produce. To that end, volunteers alongside nutritionists from Wellstar Health System — one of the partners in the venture — will be holding classes in the Farm Bureau offices on healthy cooking and eating.

For Brandin Vaughn, his love of fashion started out of necessity. His family shopped at thrift stores when he was a kid, he quickly learned to sew and tailor the clothes to better fit him. And soon others took notice. But he followed a few other paths before heading to Chicago to go to school for fashion. We sat down with Brandin inside his shop on Cherokee Street in South St. Louis as he reflects on building his brand, shifting into the world of costume designing for theaters like the Black Rep, The Muny and Shakespeare in the Park. He loves pattern and color and his shop is filled with his designs, both custom and ready-to-wear.

Work happy hours. Lunch at a brewery. Holiday parties. Dinner with friends. Imagine each of these scenarios. Now picture them without any alcohol. It's nearly impossible, right? For those who partake in the occasional drink, having fun often seems to go hand-in-hand with alcohol — and it can be pretty exclusionary for those who don't drink for one reason or another. Jeff Stevens, founder of the WellBeing Brewing Company, is working to change that. Jeff spent years marketing top beer brands before founding WellBeing Brewing in 2017. The company is the first craft brewery in the country dedicated to brewing non-alcoholic beer.  Jeff has been in recovery from the age of 24. As a self-described “non-alcoholic,” Wellbeing Brewing scratched his own itch. But he's realized there are many different people who want a great-tasting beverage without alcohol. “There are lots of people who don't drink. There are lots of people who aren't drinking at a particular time —  that particular night, this particular round — and to have some thoughtful beverages for them just makes complete sense,” Jeff says on this episode of The Empowered Challenger. To create appealing non-alcoholic options that look and sound cool, Jeff was inspired by the “fun, funky aesthetic” on Cherokee Street in St. Louis. Bold names for beverages — like its dark amber beverage “Hellraiser” — add to the appeal. Jeff has also worked hard to ensure the drinks actually taste good — not so easy for non-alcoholic beers. He says, “We all want to try something better than O'Doul's.” Prentice's Takeaway

This episode of Monument Lab, we recorded live from the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in St. Louis, where Monument Lab has a research residency this summer. As a part of Public Iconographies, we are mapping monuments of St. Louis with a research team at the museum, in parks, and public spaces around the whole city, as a part of the Pulitzer’s Striking Power exhibition. To kickoff this project, we spoke to a trio of artists – Matt Joynt, Anthony Romero, and Josh Rios – as they prepared for their own exercise in mapping. Their project, Not Peaceable and Quiet (Piñata Sound System), includes the outfitting of a bike with a booming sound system and other purposeful flair. It is part of the Counterpublic neighborhood triennal in St. Louis on and around Cherokee Street, organized by the Luminary. The artists call it a “counter monument.” It takes up space, physically, and also is fully realized when participants pedal it around, moving the soundtrack with them. Not Peaceable and Quiet doesn’t just use any bike – they transformed a retired bicycle previously used by a bike-sharing company that had left the St. Louis market and its fleet of 750 dockless bikes behind. The artists’ goal is to call attention to the failings of “on-demand lifestyle,” and policing of black and brown communities around calls for silence and order. In turn, they want to mark resistance through sound. “Music that we chose, becomes a way to map the resiliency of these peoples who are being exploited, who are being dehumanized, but who find a way to transcend,” says Romero. We recorded this episode live at the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in late May 2019, the night before Not Peaceable and Quiet premiered at Counterpublic.

Kaylen Wissinger did what so many people wish they could: she left her job and decided to chase her dreams. Working in education, Kaylen realized she wasn't happy, so she left the classroom and dove into the kitchen. Teaching herself to bake, she started out selling cupcakes at the Tower Grove Farmer's Market. From there she became the resident baker at Local Harvest Cafe. Finally, in 2012, she opened Whisk on Cherokee Street. Since then she's earned a loyal customer base and Whisk has earned a reputation as one of the best bakeries in the region. Kaylen sat down with Meet St. Louis to talk about what it feels like to risk everything to be happy, what it takes to build a bakery from scratch, and how she had to learn to let go in order to survive starting a business. Sit back, plug in, and enjoy!

Brothers Jeff and Randy Vines are turning 40 (local-speak sez Farty). Their upbeat, Ham-on-Wry style  - and their business STL-Style - helps power the ultra-diverse, collaborative renewal of their city 'hood, Cherokee Street.       These sons of STL suburbia, who went into advertising, know how to put their love of City into action. Their choice of digs on Cherokee, in South St. Louis, is a perfect place to invest their prodigious love-work resources. And to hawk the "St. Louis inspired apparel, merch and curiosities" that deck their corner store. This conversation is a valentine to City of St. Louis life, from these uber-articulate bros and City-dweller Earthworms host Jean Ponzi. New bedazzle on Vines' place is the eye-popping swirly-hue giant mural by daughter-father artist team Liza Fishbone and Robert Fishbone. A Fartieth BD present to themselves gifts big beauty to their City too!

Festivities start at 3 p.m. on Friday April 22 - EARTH DAY!  One special speaker is Earthworms guest Tabitha Tripp, a life-long tree lover, dirt worshipper and resident of Southern Illinois. Tabitha reports on issues - and the beauty of her part of her state - from the Heartwood Forest Council and SAFE, Southern Illinoisans Against Fracturing our Environment. She shares some original, personal poetry from her activist experience. In her spare time, Tabitha is a mom, a poet and painter and one hellacious cook.  Other Blue Pearl Earth Day speakers will address Pop-Up Prairies, Cool Roofs, Energy and Nuclear Waste issues - and much more.
