r.i.p. David Lynch :(

Wow. No words. Life is truly unpredictable. To every experimental avant-garde artist, today is a day of mourning...but, also celebration of a life passionately lived & fully realized. Lynch lives on now, in his body of work he left behind for us. He lives now, in his films.

A Complete Unknown: movie review

Like or hate the acquired taste that Is Bob Dylan music, I just left the new film, ‘A Complete Unknown’ truly inspired. The acting is superb, and the general thesis of the movie about how difficult it is for ‘change’ to be embraced was so universally felt by me. When celluloid film had evolved into new more compact technologies (digital), so many purists rebelled against that change. So many refused to embrace anything ‘new’ or ‘different’ and ultimately ended up being artists left in the dust of a windstorm. I had no idea that when folk musicians evolved to using electric guitar (and expanded band members) that the folk community became so upset and outraged. This film truly details how ‘protest’ and the passion of any artist should never be restricted to what a ‘moment in time’ creates, and ALL artists should remain opened to the creative maturity that time affords the fortunate ones that live long enough to tell. I saw Pete Seeger perform with Arlo Guthrie in November 2013 at Carnegie Hall. Pete died 2 months later at the age of 94. Pete Seeger played his music until he died - a true artist. bye.

Joey Huertas interview with Walt Everett, Restorative Justice anti-death penalty advocate (MVFHR)

 (interview excerpt)

Interview (excerpt) from a 2004 interview with Walt Everett, Restorative Justice advocate. This is an excerpt from interviews conducted by Joey Huertas for his Masters Degree of Social Work and Forensics Graduate Thesis on restorative justice and the death penalty. Walt Everett (1934-2020) was an ardent advocate of the anti-death penalty movement and is active in numerous abolition and restorative justice organizations. His story has been told in numerous publications including an extensive profile in Rolling Stone. In 1987 Walt Everett’s son, Scott, was shot and killed at the age of 24. For almost a year afterwards, Walt’s emotional state moved from rage to depression. He found it difficult to even go through the motions of his work as pastor of a United Methodist Church. It was only at the sentencing when he heard Mike Carlucci express remorse for killing Scott that Walt felt God nudging him towards forgiveness. Walt describes this journey as the most difficult thing he has ever had to do. He wrote to Mike on the first anniversary of Scott’s death. Thus began a correspondence, which led to visits and finally to Walt’s testifying on Mike’s behalf at a parole hearing. Based on this testimony, Mike obtained an early release and went to work for a trucking firm where his boss described him as “the best supervisor I ever had.” Walt and Mike often speak together at universities, churches and community groups about the healing power of forgiveness, healing for both the forgiven and forgiver. Walt was a pastor of United Methodist Church of Hartford, Connecticut. He met his wife at a bereavement group and between them they have six children, four of whom are still living, and eight grandchildren. Walt was an ardent advocate of the anti-death penalty movement and is active in numerous abolition and restorative justice organizations. His story has been told in numerous publications including an extensive profile in Rolling Stone. He believes MVFHR (Murder Victims Families For Human Rights) is “vital to the cause of abolition. MVFHR is an international, non-governmental organization of family members of murder victims and family members of the executed, all of whom oppose the death penalty in all cases. We view the death penalty as a profound violation of human rights. For too long we have allowed nations, including the United States of America, to go it alone when it comes to human rights issues. The intentional taking of a human life is a violation of the growing standards of morality of the worldwide community, and violates, as well, our understanding of who we are in God’s world.”
