On the forty- first episode of All the Film Things, I talked with the Film Production Coordinator for the City of Jacksonville, director/ editor Adam Madrid! Adam Madrid, who some of us regard as “the king of Jacksonville”, is an integral figure in Jacksonville who started out working as a freelancer making films, music videos, and even commercials for the Jacksonville Jaguars before becoming the Film Production Coordinator for the City of Jacksonville last year. He has been awarded the Art Innovator Award by the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville in 2023 and is amongst this year's Leadership Jacksonville class. Alongside his wife Monique, Adam is the City Producer for the 48 hour film project in Jacksonville and the co- founder of the LOL Jacksonville Film Festival. Adam is also the co- founder of the production company Argyle Forest Films and directs, co- produces, and co- edits every versatile film made under the company including “A Novel Idea” and “No Laughing Matter”, which won the Jacksonville 48 hour film project in 2014 leading the short to be screened at Filmapalooza in Hollywood the next year.Adam's directorial feature debut, Let Me Be Corey, is a comedy film that's been six years in the making! The film will be out very soon and I'll keep you all updated on its release on the ATFT Instagram! While you're waiting for Let Me Be Corey to premiere and later hit streaming, check out some of Adam's past work on the Argyle Forest Films Youtube channel by clicking this link!: https://www.youtube.com/@ArgyleForestFilms This is Adam's first appearance on ATFT! Adam and I met about a year ago at Jax Film Bar. It was very casual as, if I remember correctly, we were just eating dinner and someone between us had got up so we briefly talked and now, as I've gotten to know him a little more, I am seriously in awe of his journey and his passion for Jacksonville. He is the community leader this city needs and his dedication along with his motivated mindset is going to elevate Jacksonville to the film city it is. Every time I have the pleasure of chatting with him I feel inspired and motivated, especially since he's been a champion of this podcast which I cannot be more grateful for his support. This episode was recorded on April 24, 2025. In this episode, Adam talks about how his motivation and passion for filmmaking got him to where he is today, as a leading figure in the Jacksonville film industry. Filmmakers, specifically those in the 904 area, will especially benefit from Adam's interview and will be inspired to keep making films and spread the word about the city. Adam also explains the tax incentives for filming in Jacksonville, the current state of the arts in Jacksonville universities, and how he's spread the word about Jacksonville all around the world. We also discuss beloved comedy actors in stellar dramatic roles, our shared appreciation for Claire Danes, and teasing what's to come for the Jacksonville's film scene, and much more! All this and much more on the latest episode of All the Film Things!Background music created and used with permission by the Copyright Free Music - Background Music for Videos channel on YouTube.Sound Effect by freesound_community from Pixabay

President Xi Jinping's recent trip to Southeast Asia, his first overseas visit this year, underscored China's commitment to bolstering good-neighborly relations and promoting mutually beneficial cooperation, analysts said.分析家说，习近平主席最近的东南亚之行是他今年的首次出访，凸显了中国对加强睦邻友好关系和促进互利合作的承诺。Xi visited Vietnam, Malaysia and Cambodia last week, demonstrating China's dedication to supporting multilateralism and international trade rules. Amid global challenges like trade protectionism and unilateralism, China's efforts to build a community with a shared future with its neighbors inject fresh energy into regional and global economic growth and stability, the analysts said.习近平上周访问了越南、马来西亚和柬埔寨，表明中国致力于支持多边主义和国际贸易规则。分析人士说，在贸易保护主义和单边主义等全球挑战下，中国与邻国共建共享未来共同体的努力为地区和全球经济增长与稳定注入了新的活力。Throughout his tour, Xi reaffirmed China's commitment to fostering friendship and partnership with neighboring nations.在整个访问期间，习近平重申了中国致力于促进与周边国家的友谊和伙伴关系。In Vietnam, Xi said that building the China-Vietnam community with a shared future carries great global significance. In Malaysia, he said that China is ready to work with Malaysia to build a high-level strategic China-Malaysia community with a shared future. In Cambodia, Xi and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet agreed to build an all-weather China-Cambodia community with a shared future in the new era and designated 2025 as the China-Cambodia Year of Tourism.在越南，习近平说，建设具有共同未来的中越命运共同体具有重大全球意义。在马来西亚，他表示，中方愿同马方一道，努力打造高水平、有共同未来的中马战略合作伙伴关系。在柬埔寨，习近平同柬埔寨首相洪马内商定，在新时代打造全天候、共未来的中柬命运共同体，并将2025年定为“中柬旅游年”。Rujipun Assarut, a senior researcher at the Kasikorn Research Center in Bangkok, Thailand, said, "Amid US tariff tensions, President Xi Jinping's Southeast Asia trip is a well-timed and strategic move signifying how China is willing to be a dependable economic partner while nurturing relationships in the advancement of mutual prosperity among the countries.泰国曼谷Kasikorn研究中心高级研究员鲁吉蓬·阿萨鲁特说："在美国关税紧张局势下，习近平主席的东南亚之行恰逢其时，是一个具有战略意义的举动，表明中国愿意成为一个可靠的经济伙伴，同时为促进国家间的共同繁荣而发展关系。"China and the countries have signed dozens of cooperation agreements, including deals on enhancing supply chains and railway cooperation with Vietnam and upgrading joint industrial parks with Malaysia. These will strengthen cooperation in supply chains and trade promotion between China and the region," he added.“中国与这些国家签署了数十项合作协议，包括与越南加强供应链和铁路合作的协议，与马来西亚升级联合工业园区的协议。这些协议将加强中国与该地区在供应链和贸易促进方面的合作，"他补充道。Nguyen Minh Vu, Vietnam's permanent deputy minister of foreign affairs, said the outcomes of President Xi's state visit are diverse and outstanding, with positive and long-term impacts on bilateral relations, according to a report by Viet Nam News, the national English language daily.据越南国家英文日报《越南新闻》报道，越南外交部常务副部长阮明宇表示，习主席此次国事访问的成果是多样而突出的，将对双边关系产生积极而长远的影响。Malaysian Minister of Foreign Affairs Dato' Seri Utama Haji Mohamad bin Haji Hasan told local media on Thursday that Malaysia and China will set up a consultative council to coordinate the implementation of 31 bilateral cooperation documents signed between the two countries during Xi's state visit.马来西亚外交部长拿督斯里乌塔马·哈吉·穆罕默德·哈桑周四告诉当地媒体，中马两国将成立一个磋商理事会，协调落实习近平主席国事访问期间两国签署的31份双边合作文件。Loh Wee Keng, chairman of the Malaysian Chamber of Commerce and Industry in China, said: "Twelve years ago, during President Xi's first visit to Malaysia (as president), he introduced numerous projects. This year's visit further enhances China-Malaysia cooperation, opening up more opportunities for businesses."中国马来西亚工商会主席卢成全说：“十二年前，习主席首次访问马来西亚（作为国家主席）期间，他介绍了许多项目。今年的访问进一步加强了中马合作，为企业带来了更多机遇"。He emphasized that as the United States' new tariff policy creates global economic uncertainty, Xi's visit to Southeast Asia was timely and will bring more economic opportunities and stability to the region.他强调，在美国新关税政策给全球经济带来不确定性的情况下，习主席访问东南亚恰逢其时，将为该地区带来更多经济机遇和稳定。Suthiphand Chirathivat, a professor emeritus of economics and former director of the ASEAN Studies Center at Chulalongkorn University, said Xi's trip conveyed the message that China wants to work together with Association of Southeast Asian Nations member countries for an open dialogue.朱拉隆功大学东盟研究中心前主任、经济学名誉教授素提潘·迟拉西瓦特说，习近平此行传达了中国希望与东南亚国家联盟成员国共同开展公开对话的信息。"ASEAN countries should take a pause and think about who should be trusted. It's obvious that the US only prioritizes its own interests. As emerging economies in the world, China and ASEAN are important to each other and need each other," he said.“东盟国家应该停下来思考一下应该信任谁。很明显，美国只优先考虑自己的利益。作为世界新兴经济体，中国和东盟彼此重要，相互需要，"他说。"As economic and trade cooperation between China and ASEAN accelerates, trade and investment continue to grow steadily, and collaboration in industrial and supply chains is becoming increasingly close. After President Xi's trip, I believe such relations will grow even closer with stronger mutual trust," he added.“随着中国与东盟经贸合作的加快，贸易和投资持续稳定增长，产业链和供应链合作日益紧密。他补充说："在习主席出访之后，我相信这种关系将更加密切，互信将更加牢固。Chhem Kieth Rethy, senior minister and chairman of the Economic, Social and Cultural Council of Cambodia, said he believes that the building of an all-weather China-Cambodia community with a shared future in the new era will be a moment of renewal for both countries.柬埔寨经济、社会和文化理事会主席、高级部长陈勒提表示，他相信在新时代构建中柬全天候命运共同体将成为两国共同发展的新起点。President Xi's visit inspired greater confidence regarding the cooperation and development between the two countries, he said.他说，习主席的访问使两国对合作与发展充满信心。multilateralism[ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm]n.多边贸易a high-level strategic China-Malaysia community高水平中马战略共同体mutual trust互信state visit国家元首至其他国的官式访问

#192 Serviceplan Culture: Kulturelle Relevanz von und für MarkenReturn on Culture – oder: wie Marken ihre Fanbase in kulturellen Feldern signifikant steigern können.Werbung, Zeitgeist, Popkultur. Wer beeinflusst hier eigentlich wen? Und vor allem wo? Wie können moderne Marken bestmöglich im Zeitalter kultureller Trends und Strömungen bestehen und den richtigen Weg in Communities finden? Was ist der richtige Fit für meine Marke – oder ist die Antwort eigentlich doch immer Hip-Hop? Und doch ist ‚Cultural Marketing‘ im Advertising-Mix vieler Unternehmen nicht präsent. Für Serviceplan Culture ist die Cultural Strategy Teil der Brand und Corporate Strategy. Es ist der notwendige Return on Culture (ROC), eine messbare Größe und Wahrnehmung zum Einfluss einer Marke innerhalb von subkulturellen Feldern. Mit diesem datenbasierten Ansatz und unter dem Claim ‚De/Coding Culture‘ wurde das Unternehmen im Januar 2024 gegründet, um kulturelle Relevanz für Marken und ihre Produkte zu ermöglichen. Till Diestel, Chief Creative Officer von Serviceplan Germany, sagte damals: „Marken haben den Anspruch, nicht nur nah Popkultur zu sein, sondern ein Teil von ihr zu werden und sie selbst zu prägen.“ Hinter Serviceplan Culture stecken Franziska Gregor, Niko Backspin und Sven Labenz. Das Gründer:innen Trio vereint langjährige Erfahrung auf Agentur- und Unternehmensseite, Content- und Kanal-Expertise, sowie extensive Netzwerke in Hip-Hop, Sport, Gaming, LGBTQI+, sowie Metal und Nerd Culture. Nach mehr als 100 Tagen Serviceplan Culture berichten Franziska Gregor und Niko Backspin im Starcast Podcast über ihre Gründungsidee. Offen, ehrlich, transparent. Über den Start innerhalb der weltweit agierenden Serviceplan Gruppe, über ihre Vision von Cultural Marketing, die Einbeziehung der Kultur selbst und die Skalierbarkeit von digitalen Produkten und Daten. Über Fehler, gute und schlechte Entscheidungen und die Veränderung der Agenturwelt durch wirtschaftliche Einflüsse. Warum gründet Deutschlands wichtigster Hip-Hop-Journalist gemeinsam mit Serviceplan eine Agentur? Wie erklärt man Marken eigentlich Cultural Marketing oder ist das sowieso nur das nächste Buzzword? Muss heute wirklich jeder auf TikTok präsent sein und bestmöglich eine K-Pop-Ad schalten? Funktioniert Cultural Marketing auch als Media-Strategie? Und warum braucht es ein Cultural Council und die tiefe Verbindung zur Kultur, um erfolgreich zu sein?Der Hamburger Medienmacher und Hip-Hop-Experte Niko Backspin ist Managing Partner und Chief Cultural Officer bei Serviceplan Culture. Er ist somit der direkte Verbindungslink zwischen Kultur, Content, Creator:innen und Marken. Niko Backspin ist seit mehr als 20 Jahren eine weitbekannte und geschätzte Größe in der internationalen Hip-Hop-Szene sowie in Sport und Gaming. Mit seiner Plattform Backspin ist er auf einer Vielzahl von Kanälen zu Hause – im Podcast, auf YouTube, in TV-Reportagen und Dokumentationen oder im Radio. Der Medienmacher ist das Gesicht der international preisgekrönten Hip-Hop-Dokumentation „Back to Tape” von Porsche, Stiftungsbeirat der NGO Viva con Agua und bestens mit Künstler:innen auf der ganzen Welt vernetzt. Einen langjährigen Fokus auf Brand Entertainment in unterschiedlichsten Subkulturen hat Franziska Gregor, die als Geschäftsführerin bei Serviceplan Culture für Acquisitions und Finanzen verantwortlich ist. Die Berlinerin zählt mit rund 13 Jahren Agenturerfahrung (unter anderem bei Heimat, GREY, DDB, Publicis, Jung von Matt) und einem internationalen Netzwerk in Berlin, New York und Seoul zu den führenden Macherinnen in der deutschen Kreativbranche. In ihrer vorherigen Rolle als Creative Partnerships Lead DACH/NL bei TikTok Germany hat sie das Consulting und die Vernetzung der Social Media Plattform mit Kreativagenturen, Content-/Soundproduktionen, Creator:innen und Brand-Kollaborationen verantwortet.

Mixalhítsa7 Alison Pascal is a passionate Indigenous community leader, educator, and advocate based in British Columbia, Canada. She is a member of the Sk̲wxwú7mesh Úxwumixw and the Líl̓wat7ul Nations, and her career is focused on advancing the rights and interests of Indigenous peoples in her community and beyond. Alison is particularly interested in language revitalization, land stewardship, and cultural preservation and has worked extensively in these areas throughout her career.Mixalhítsa7's leadership and advocacy work have earned her several awards, including the Order of British Columbia and the Indspire Award, which recognizes outstanding Indigenous achievement in Canada. She has also served on several boards and committees related to Indigenous issues, including the First Peoples' Cultural Council and the Stó:lō Research and Resource Management Centre. Through her tireless work and dedication to Indigenous rights and cultural preservation, Mixalhítsa7 has become a respected and influential voice in her community and beyond. The podcast with Alison Pascal was a heart-wrenching conversation about the historical and current struggles of Indigenous communities in Canada. Pascal spoke about how the Canadian government's intervention in the lives of Indigenous people has caused them to suffer from alcohol consumption, drug use, and poor food management. It was not an accident, but a deliberate choice that resulted in intergenerational trauma affecting their physical and mental health. Pascal shared a story about how immigrant families were starving and freezing, but Indigenous nature helped them survive by teaching them how to farm. However, the Indigenous people were forced to side with the British to fight the French and Spanish, resulting in the loss of their land, which is now a commodity that can be sold. Today, Indigenous people are conditioned to stay inside and are denied access to gathering and foraging, leading to a loss of culture and spiritual connection to the land. The residential school system, which separated Indigenous children from their parents and land, led to a truth and reconciliation diet where children worked on school farms but were not allowed to eat the food, resulting in malnutrition and chronic diseases. Pascal questioned if it is possible to reprogram our bodies to not have chronic diseases and suggested the use of ancient medicines to maintain good health. The podcast also highlighted the issue of mental health stigma in Indigenous communities, which is exacerbated by the social aspects that white people see in Indigenous people, such as domestic violence, drug abuse, alcoholism, and gambling. Pascal spoke about the importance of a sustainable program to get kids onto the land to foster their interest in culture and the need for parents to be involved. Indigenous people are part of the land, and the land is part of them, but the spiritual loss has led to an autonomic economy that is split into unfarmable land, affecting their drinking water. Overall, the podcast highlighted the interconnectedness of intellectual, physical, mental, and emotional health, and how the wellbeing of Indigenous communities in Canada is essential for all living beings and the land. Pascal's emotional testimony left a lasting impact on listeners, calling for immediate action to address the long-standing issues affecting Indigenous people in Canada. Find Dr.Alison Pascal at:LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3TYHubVWebsite: www.SLCC.caFacebook: @SLCCWhistler, @SistersInSpiritVigil2015, @Alison.PascalInstagram: @alison.pascal Discussed on the PODCAST:Unreserved Podcast: The dark history of Canada's Food Guide: How experiments on Indigenous children shaped nutrition policy with Dr. Ian Mosby - https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/1887262787815Dr Ian Mosby - http://www.ianmosby.ca/GATHER Documentary - https://gather.film/First Nations Drinking Water – www.firstnationsdrinkingwater.caSLCC Ancient Medicines Exhibit - https://slcc.ca/exhibits/ancient-medicine/ Learn More: Ready to launch your career as a certified Metabolic Nutrition & Detox Coach?

The Spirit of Place Tim Gilmore is a prolific local history author who has written extensively about Jacksonville. As the writer and creator of www.jaxpsychogeo.com, a project that explores place and catalogs the Southern Gothic, he has told more than 700 stories of strange and historic locations in and around Jacksonville, Florida. He has also published 22 books. "Ever since UNF English Professor Alex Menocal introduced me to the concept of psychogeography years ago, I've been enthralled with it," Gilmore says. "It's a portmanteau word, the psychology of geography, [meaning] something like the spirit of place. It's where the name for my website, jaxpsychogeo, comes from." Gilmore seems equally fascinated with Jacksonville and its people. He is also the founder of JaxbyJax. A literary arts festival, now in its 10th year, JaxbyJax was built on the theme of “Jacksonville Writers Writing Jacksonville.” Few writers have written about Jacksonville more than Gilmore. He joined us last November to talk about his latest book, The Culture Wars of Warren Folks.  Tim Gilmore has written 22 books including Box Broken Open: The Architecture of Ted Pappas; Murder Capital: Eight Stories, 1890s-1980s; Channeling Anna Fletcher; Repossessions: Mass Shooting in Baymeadows; The Book of Isaiah: A Vision of the Founder of a City, illustrated by Shep Shepard; Devil in the Baptist Church: Bob Gray's Unholy Trinity; and The Mad Atlas of Virginia King. Four of the works he's written for the stage have been produced by Florida State College at Jacksonville DramaWorks and his writing has appeared in numerous publications both locally and nationally. JaxPsychoGeo has received mention in publications including The Miami Herald, The Washington Post and The New Yorker and was featured in the A24 book Florida! A Hyper-Local Guide to the Flora, Fauna and Fantasy of the Most Far-Out State in America. Gilmore teaches Literature and Writing at Florida State College at Jacksonville. He's received awards from FSCJ, the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville and Jacksonville City Council. He holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of Florida. You can also read his twice-weekly newsletter, Tim Gilmore's deadpaper, at timgilmore.substack.com. Interviewer Shep Shepard is a professor of English at FSCJ's Nassau Center. He received his Ph.D. in English from the University of Florida and has worked as a full-time instructor at FSCJ for twenty years. In his spare time, he produces music under various monikers, edits fiction and nonfiction prose, creates digital art, and enjoys time with his wife Ana and their dogs Meka and Moxie.

I've assigned The Road to numerous classes over the years. Of all the McCarthy I've read, I most highly recommend The Road and two of his earlier novels: First, there's the 1973 novel Child of God, which somehow manages to be one of the most horrifying things I've ever read and one of the most beautiful. Few writers could achieve that strange incongruous feat, perhaps none better than McCarthy. Meanwhile, his 1979 novel Suttree paints as detailed a picture of down-and-out Knoxville, Tennessee, as Joyce ever painted of Dublin. It's perhaps the greatest American psychogeographical work. When I recently read John Oliver Killens' 1954 novel Youngblood, I couldn't believe I'd not read him already. This novel, alongside Harry Crews' newly reissued 1978 memoir A Childhood, has to be among the best writings ever to come out of Georgia. The two of them work like split-screen, a Black childhood and a white childhood, both so different and so similar. Both writers had ties to Jacksonville. Crews said mid-20th century Jax was the place poor Georgia farmers went when the crops failed. Various artists and writers have used psychogeography in different ways. I've returned time and again to my favorite such writings, which I can't recommend enough – novels like Peter Ackroyd's Chatterton and Hawksmoor and Toni Morrison's Beloved. On the face of it, Ackroyd and Morrison couldn't be more different, but they both explore how culture is haunted by history and how patterns of history present themselves as ghostly. Then there's Joseph Mitchell's Joe Gould's Secret, a nonfiction account of a homeless Greenwich Village icon who claimed to have written the longest book in the world. Tim Recommends: Other Jax Authors I'd be negligent if I didn't give a shout-out to our local literary community, which runs so much deeper and wider than most locals realize and includes works like Julie Delegal's Seen and Andres Rojas's Third Winter in Our Second Country and Johnny Masiulewicz's Happy Tapir zine series. I could name dozens of other writers I admire and their works, but as soon as I attempt a long list, I'll foolishly omit someone and lose a few nights' sleep. (I already see 15 or 20 people in my mind's eye whose names I didn't mention, but could have, just now.) Anyone who wants an extensive list of writers participating in the Jax community, just look at the archives for the last nine festivals at jaxbyjax.com. I'll just say this is the 10th year of JaxbyJax Literary Arts Festival, which my wife Jo Carlisle and I founded and then relinquished to the more capable hands of Darlyn and Brad Kuhn. --- Never miss an event!

Over the years, opportunities have popped up for India's ambition to turn itself into a manufacturing hub. Donald Trump's trade war and the pandemic have prompted multinationals to diversify supply chains. Like Vietnam, India is a primary destination when companies seek to relocate part of their productions out of China. That's why Foxconn's recent exit from an ambitious project to build one of India's first chip factories looks a little surprising. While Indian officials claim that the news changes nothing about India's semiconductor manufacturing goals, it raises questions about the ease of doing business if foreign investors participate in India's manufacturing development. What obstacles does India have to get rid of on its road to being a manufacturing hub? Host Ding Heng is joined by Mohammed Saqib, Secretary General of the India China Economic and Cultural Council; Dr. Timothy Kerswell from Chinese University of Hong Kong; Professor Yao Shujie from Chongqing University.

CastillejoGuest columnOn February 7 community members gathered at a town hall meeting in Poulsbo to support the Latino Parent Group's request to the North Kitsap School District (NKSD) to investigate ongoing allegations of discrimination against students. At least 125 people attended, including Kitsap ERACE Coalition, the NAACP, Suquamish Tribal Elder Barbara Lawrence, Kitsap SURJ, local business owners, teachers, Poulsbo City Council, Kitsap Public Health, Kitsap Black Student Union, Kitsap Strong, Living Life Leadership, Poulsbo for All, Kitsap Mental Health Services representatives, Central Kitsap school administrators, Bainbridge Island school administrators, Bainbridge Island's mayor and Cultural Council, and many Latino families.We are grateful we are not alone. And we express our gratitude to the North Kitsap School District for processing some 85 emailed complaints and hiring an investigator to explore and resolve these concerns.In Kitsap County, we must urgently consider practical solutions for addressing racism in education, its effects on our youth's learning and mental health. Unaddressed racial trauma in our schools creates barriers to education, work, and mental and physical health. Our youth — all youth — are searching for ways to cope with the effects of racism, the pandemic and violence.Therefore, we must also urgently pursue healing. The North Kitsap Latino community offers the school district community-based practical solutions for forming partnerships with immigrants of other national origins, African Americans, Asian American/Pacific Islanders, and Indigenous students. Working together, we give all of our children a more inclusive society.In the words of Cesar Chavez: “We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community. Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own.”The problems the Latino community face are deeply rooted in Kitsap County's historical racism, discrimination, and resulting harm to others who are perceived as “different.” Latino families share an important indigeneity connection with the Suquamish and Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribes, on whose ancestral lands we are guests. We are deeply grateful for these Tribes' work and advocacy to achieve justice and healing on behalf of, not only themselves, but also many other Kitsap County communities, including ours.As committed investors in our county economically and socially, we are also deeply committed stakeholders in the education of our children. Empowering our Latino community and other communities of Color, which bear the impact of racism and discrimination, builds bridges and creates movement toward truth, healing, and reconciliation.In a story published by the Kitsap Sun last November on this issue, NKSD stated, "Students and families should feel welcome and have a sense of belonging in our schools. When there are barriers to this, it is on us to have the courageous conversations to make meaningful changes."To advance these aspirational goals, we have asked the NK School District for two things: Equal access to education for English language learners and a culture of belonging that includes educating and providing learning on nondiscrimination.We have also provided specific practical solutions:1.  An equity concern form to be provided in both English and Spanish. It may be completed by students, staff, parents or community members to report district or school equity concerns, as well as give positive feedback to the district.2. Critical communication such as student updates, school announcements, emergency messages, and counseling services will be made available in the top three languages other than English. Additionally, qualified interpreters will be made available for parents to communicate with administrators and educators at all school events.3. English-language acquisition and student supports:- English language learners will receive language support regularly, for a minimum 4 days a week, at 20 minutes a day. These students will be placed in classrooms with teachers trained in evidence-based teaching strategies while supported by administrators in their classroom needs.- The district ensures all students have access to understanding their class content and materials, in classes, such as English, math, science, music, and all electives. - English language learning will include support for speaking, listening, reading and writing skills.4. Professional development will be provided for administrators, teachers, para-professionals and any staff working with children and youth, covering these specific topics: the impact of racial trauma, understanding student needs, how to support students, mental health resources, equality, and equity.5. Paid community liaisons to provide direct support to families through advocacy, creating safety and belonging, and addressing mental health needs. Each of the following will have a liaison: African American, Asian American Pacific Islander, Latino and Indigenous communities.6. The Latino community will collaborate with the district and other community liaisons to gather and elevate the voice of their community needs to explore partnership opportunities. Then, within this partnership, they will form 2-, 3- and 5-year plans to ensure students of color and their parents are supported in their educational needs.7. An education equity council will review the equity concern forms, discuss solutions to equity concerns, implement solutions, advise the school administration and school board, and develop pathways to understanding on behalf of students and the district. These practical solutions undergird our children's education. Along with creating a sense of belonging, the solutions build important frameworks for trust among the district, the Latino community and other communities of color. When the Kitsap County Health Department declared racism a public health crisis in 2021, the county recognized our situation. Loneliness and a lack of belonging are common threads for children of all national origins and races in this post pandemic world. Our urgent desire for unity, coupled with practical solutions, supports this community in a world that is increasingly fragmented. Kitsap County students are asking our generation to provide safety, learning opportunities, and model inclusion, not racism. Let us follow their lead and work together. Danielle S. Castillejo writes on behalf of the North Kitsap School District Latino Parent Group and Kitsap Advocating for Immigrant Rights and Equality.

Discussion with members of the Canton Cultural Council and representative from the Mass. Cultural Council. Canton Community Television's, Andrea Galvin hosts. 

‘Stories of the Stitch' 2022Appalachian Vibes Radio Show from WNCWBy: Amanda BocchiStories of the Stitch, the 17th annual outdoor quilt show in Galax, VA took place this past weekend. GPS will lead you the wrong way, best to follow the small wooden signs pointing the way down a winding road, through the hills of Appalachia to Matthews History Living History Farm Museum. Dozens of quilts hung from clothes lines, brightly woven fabrics blowing against the sky. Any quilter will tell you, quilts are more than a blanket to keep you warm on chilly evenings. They are one of the first forms of art in Appalachia, often commemorating a life event, like the story of a birth, a death, an injury, or a wedding. Laura Romanowski, director of the Arts and Cultural Council for the Twin Counties tells Amanda Bocchi, “Quilts are part of living history. Aren't they supposed to be seen on clotheslines flapping in the breeze? It's like a kaleidoscope. You walk into the field and you are surrounded by pattern and color, and the most amazing functional art there is. Not only does it keep you warm on a winter's night, it warms your soul when you look at them.”Ashley Jurney is a painter turned quilter and organizer for the Stories of the Stitch quilt show. She started quilting 7 years ago when she saw a quilt she wanted to buy and decided the price was too high, and she could do it herself. Jurney wasn't immediately a success, but her dedication and artistry paid off in 2020 when she was named the international quilt show winner for that year. She started a business helping other quilt artists sew their quilts, now she has clients from California to Maine. If you attend a major quilt show, you're bound to find one of Jurney's quilts or a quilt she helped prepare on display. Before the quilts are hung along the clothes lines and judged, they are separated into different categories: classic quilts, hand pieced/hand quilted, half and half, quilts that don't fit into any category, story quilts and machine pieced/machine quilted. One story quilt was submitted by Barbra Moncrief, the pattern was vivacious and busy with fabric and ribbons twisting and turning across the squares. The title of her story quilt? “Life's Twists and Turns”“Life is fickle, constantly changing no matter what we plan. We plan our lives and there are constant twists or turns here and there. Fun, horrific, exciting, acceptable, okay, serendipitous, grand moments etc…much of what we make of these twists and turns is our choosing. We can choose to accept some of these twists and turns, and be happy or sad,  it's our choice. Having had some of all of these various twists and turns, I've chosen happiness, and I'm ready for the new day. I turned 80 during the pandemic and I had a glorious adventure planned.  But instead I celebrated at home alone. It was and is my choice to celebrate each day in a wild glorious way. Wearing wild colors, and doing whatever strikes my fancy. Therefore this quilt is a reminder that life's twists and turns are to be celebrated daily.” - Barbra MoncriefMoncrief's inspiration for her submission “Life's Twists and Turns” is derived from a twist of fate many years ago when her husband was suddenly killed by a train while he was taking photos. She lost the love of her life that day with no warning, and yet she makes a point to choose happiness every day. These aren't just quilts. The fabric holds the soul of the artist in every stitch, and if you're ever lucky enough to be gifted one of these incredible pieces of art, never let itAppalachian Vibes Radio Show from WNCW is listener nominated, you can nominate an artist by emailing Amanda at appalachianvibes@gmail.com. Appalachian Vibes Radio Show is created and produced by Amanda Bocchi, a neo soul singer-songwriter, multi instrumentalist and journalist hailing from the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia.

Happy Monday, Alchemists! This conversation highlights why representation matters, the power of touch, dismantling the stigmas around counseling and acknowledging when we need help!

All aboard the Key Change time machine for a two-part trip! On this half of the journey, we toggle back to the origins of a beloved community-based program and then forward to celebrate its exciting expansion. 2023 will mark the 50th anniversary of the Pueblo Opera Program, lovingly known around the Santa Fe Opera as POP.  Key Change commemorates this momentous event by passing the mic to colleague Kyle Gray, SFO's Manager of Community Relations & Government Affairs. Kyle and his guests discuss the POP legacy and Pueblo Opera Cultural Council (POCC), which blossomed out of an artistic collaboration between legendary director Peter Sellars and SFO's Indigenous neighbors during the 2018 production of Doctor Atomic — with guests Renee Roybal, Pueblo of San Ildefonso, and Claudene A. Martinez, Pueblo of San Ildefonso. “I'm 63 years old, and I've been going to and enjoying opera since I was a teenager,” Renee says. For nearly 50 years, POP has introduced thousands of Native American children to the grand adventure of opera. Both women have fond memories of inspiring behind-the-scenes tours, inventive performances, and rides on plush buses to the most anticipated social event of the summer.  With POP's legacy secure, the women have focused on POCC, which features members of the San Ildefonso Pueblo, Santa Clara Pueblo, and Tesuque Pueblo. POCC seeks to foster the Indigenous tradition of cross-cultural hospitality.

“To have even a brief conversation with artist Michael E. Taylor is to dive headfirst into a deep pool of scientific and intellectual inquiry. Taylor has always been an extremely analytical artist, responding with equal fervor to his intellectual encounters with scientific ideas, art history, philosophy, or current events. Whether inspired by formal quality of geometry, the Higgs boson particle, or the moral implications of artificial intelligence, Taylor's work is ultimately about investigation.” – Museum of Glass, Tacoma, solo show, Traversing Parallels, 2017/2018. Widely-renowned for his cut and laminated glass works, geometric constructions, and fractal abstractions inspired by everything from subatomic particles to music, Michael E. Taylor first used glass while attending a workshop at Penland School of Crafts in North Carolina. He was struck by the material's heat and spontaneity, a dynamic opposite from the deliberate and extended processes for firing and shaping ceramics. Dedicated to art and education for over 49 years, the artist was born in Lewisberg, Tennessee, in 1944, where he initially studied ceramics while working towards a Bachelor of Science in Art Education from Tennessee State University. Studying ceramics honed his intuitive sense of form, color, and design; skills which would later be important to his glass career.  One of the first generation of artists to learn from the founders of the Studio Glass movement, Taylor experienced the early days of glass through interactions with Harvey Littleton, Fritz Dreisbach, and Marvin Lipofsky. As a young student, a Fulbright Hayes Grant to Scandinavia introduced him to the factories of Kosta-Boda Glasbruke and Johansfors Glasbruke, as well as artists of the region, including Anna Warff.  Taylor's artistic career has been intertwined with decades as a university professor, including a more than 20-year tenure as a professor in the School for American Crafts at Rochester Institute of Technology, invited Professor at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ciencias e Tecnologia, Campus da Caprica, Portugal, 2005 – 2013, and instructor at schools in the US such as Pilchuck, Penland, and the Corning Museum of Glass. His career in academia made it possible to experiment and explore new ideas through his sculpture instead of feeling pressure to repeat popular works for monetary sales. The academic setting also allowed Taylor to continue to explore scientific, philosophical, and artistic ideas. While at the College of Idaho and teaching the history of modern art, Taylor's directive led to political and visual expressions of the Russian revolution and artists of constructivism. The hard lines and acute angles of constructivism of the 1920s continued to scientific theory and theoretical physics. Using glass with scientific exactness and austerity resulted in further architectural form and shapes of accuracy. Readings of future science and cultural futurism led to issues of DNA and binary systems as they related to laminations in his work.  Taylor states: “Art reflects thought and ideals of the period in which it is made. It can relate to predictions for the future. My work speaks of the importance of science and technology and its eventual dominance through Artificial Intelligence.” Taylor's honors and awards are many and include the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation Grant, 2009, 2011; Luso – American Foundation Grant, Portugal, 2002 -2007; Outstanding Visual Artist Award, Arts and Cultural Council of Greater Rochester, New York, 2001; College of Imaging Arts and Sciences, Research and Development Grant, RIT, 2000; Grand Prize, The International Exhibition of Glass, Kanazawa, Japan, 1988; National Endowment for the Arts, Visual Artists Forums Grant, 1985-86 and Visual Artist Fellowship, National Endowment for the Arts, 1984-85. Other educational awards and opportunities include a Lewis Comfort Tiffany Grant, Penland School Scholarship, and The American – Scandinavian Foundation Grant. His work can be found in the permanent collections of the Chrysler Museum of Art, Norfolk, Virginia; the National Collection of American Art, Renwick Gallery, Smithsonian Institute, Washington, D.C.; The Museum of Glass, Tacoma, Washington; Asheville Museum of Art, North Carolina; Racine Museum of Art, Racine, Wisconsin; Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, Ontario, Canada; Glas Museum Ebeltoft, Ebeltoft, Denmark; Kanazawa City Museum, Kanazawa, Japan; and Tokyo Glass Art Institute, Kawasaki-Shi, Japan, to name only a few. Inviting viewers to utilize scientific-like observations to analyze the implications of a rapidly changing world, Taylor's sculpture is both triumphant and cautionary, simultaneously celebrating technological breakthroughs and worrying about their implications. By using glass to make these theoretical connections, the artist inspires contemplation of social and scientific issues and continues to take the material of glass into new expressive terrain. States Taylor: “The race is on in all technological advanced countries for the discovery of human consciousness for AI. I predict it will be the last frontier of human intellect. I have constructed a laminated slab of color blocks which represent the codes for the human consciousness. I see it as a kind of Rosetta Stone of translation from one language to another – binary to English. The RS interpretation of Egyptian hieroglyphics to Greek language allowed us to make the intellectual and cultural jump. “I see Codes as containing the information for making the final leap from human consciousness to that of machines. This will be a discovery of epic proportions. This would be the beginning of a new world of solutions to puzzles such as eternal life, interplanetary travel, and the discovery of philosophic truth for each individual human.”
