THIS WEEK I am sorry to report that the Fuzzy Unicorns lost in a heartbreaker on Monday night. The hard-fought match was 0-0 until the final moments, when our opponents in SOCA’s adult recreational summer soccer league finally managed to squeak one through our defense to win the game. Devastating! Unlike the elite athletes featured elsewhere in this issue—we’ve got Olympic swimmers on page 12 and a hot dog-scarfing champion on page 13—the team is no great shakes. (I mean, we’re called the Fuzzy Unicorns, which tells you everything you need to know about the seriousness of the endeavor.) Even so, we work up a sweat every week, chasing the ball as best we can. It’s a blast. Running around in circles, meeting new people—the season has been a reminder of all the little moments of teamwork and connection that I missed in the last year. But like other group pastimes, it’s possible again this spring, and made all the more exciting after the long stretch of pandemic-induced hibernation. The photo essay in this week’s issue (p. 15) chronicles some other activities that might feel the same way—dancing, splashing, raising a glass. COVID isn’t gone completely, but cases are low, the vaccination rate is high, and at long last, the city is shaking off the rust.—Ben Hitchcock

In, HARD TIMES AND SURVIVAL: THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF AN AFRICANAMERICAN SON,

James relates His Story and the Reader learns what He means when He Says: “Do not GiveIn to Adversity, but overcome it by Steady and Constant Perserverance.”

An additional 225 people left comments on an interactive version of the map. Many took this opportunity to comment on the placement of medium-intensity residential plots in areas currently set aside for low-intensity development. A section of the Greenbrier neighborhood between Keith Valley Road and Meadowbrook Heights Road is designated as Neighborhood Mixed-Use Node on the new map, which would allow up to five stories with a mixture of uses. “This is among the most mean-spirited of your proposals,” reads one of about two dozen comments in this area. “Currently, Greenbrier feels very isolated,” reads a different comment. “Can imagine kids in this neighborhood getting to walk to do something in this mixed-use area, or people in the neighborhood getting to grab something easily from the local market.” On Tuesday, June 29, the Charlottesville Planning Commission met for a work session to discuss the community’s input.

Meanwhile, a new group called Citizens for Responsible Planning submitted a petition with 401 signatures asking that the process be delayed for another six months. In a report published last week, Rhodeside & Harwell attempted to tease some key themes out of the data. According to RHI, 46 percent of respondents called for more residential density in “historically exclusionary, majority-white communities.” Other general themes with high levels of support were 43 percent of commenters who want even more density in “general residential” areas and the 46 percent who want a plan that stops “displacement of Black and low-wealth residents by protecting lowwealth and majority-Black communities.” Some Charlottesville residents are skeptical of the plan, however. Fifteen percent requested more time, 14 percent had concerns over the effects larger residential densities would have on infrastructure, and 14 percent were suspicious about what developers really want from the plan.

n May and June, the consulting group hired to rework the city’s land-use policy received more than 2,000 comments, through a variety of mediums, on its most recent draft of the city’s Future Land Use Map, a document that would guide the city’s rezoning process in the coming months and years. The submitted responses to the draft map capture a divided community. “Most people seem to agree that affordability is an issue, but there are varying opinions on how to best address this issue and what levels of housing development and intensity may be appropriate and where,” says Jennifer Koch, project manager for the Cville Plans Together initiative. “I do not like the idea of changing the tenor of neighborhoods,” wrote one Lewis Mountain resident, aged 55-64, who did not support the planners’ vision. “I do not want low-income housing in my neighborhood.” But one of that person’s younger neighbors did support the idea of increasing residential density, especially in neighborhoods where single-family homes are the dominant housing type. “Charlottesville needs to place a significant focus on not only allowing but encouraging housing density, especially through the construction of more multifamily and affordable housing,” the neighbor wrote.

Let’s be blunt What you can—and cannot—do now that weed is legal By Brielle Entzminger reporter@c-ville.com

While police are no longer able to use the smell of marijuana as a reason to search a vehicle, “[they] are able to now say they see a green leafy substance in your car and are able to search it,” says Higgs Wise. “Don’t give them a reason to search your car.” If you’re a renter, you might not be allowed to smoke in your apartment, either. “Please review your leases,” says Higgs Wise. “A lot of private landlords are able to say you cannot consume drugs, because they are outlawed at a federal level.” Is my previous marijuana arrest gone? Maybe. On July 1, Virginia will automatically seal all records of misdemeanor possession with intent to distribute marijuana,

including arrests, charges, and convictions. (All records of misdemeanor simple possession were sealed when Virginia decriminalized marijuana last year.) By 2025, the state plans to have all records of simple possession or misdemeanor possession with the intent to distribute sealed as well. People with other marijuana-related misdemeanors or (most) felonies will be able to petition for their records to be sealed. What are the next steps for marijuana reform in Virginia? In the near future, Marijuana Justice hopes to see many improvements made to legalization laws. The advocates are particularly worried about how new laws will impact youth under 21, public housing residents, and unhoused people, who could

Choosing to Buy Local

June 30 – July 6, 2021 c-ville.com

Can I buy marijuana legally? Not yet. Until January 1, 2024, it will remain illegal to sell marijuana seeds, clones, flower, or any other part of the plant in Virginia, outside of the state’s medical marijuana program. And it is against federal law to bring home marijuana from other states where it is legally sold. Adults may share up to an ounce of marijuana with each other, but not in exchange for money, goods, or services. They also cannot provide free “gifts” of weed with legal items, like the gifting market in Washington, D.C. The immediate effect of this law isn’t to create a legal marijuana market, but rather to decrease the amount of marijuana arrests by eliminating possession as a crime.

et your bongs, blunts, and bowls ready—starting July 1, everyone 21 and over can legally possess and use marijuana recreationally in Virginia. Adults will be able to possess up to one ounce of marijuana and grow up to four marijuana plants at home, as long as they keep them out of public view and away from children. However, the new law is full of caveats, and may not be so easy to follow. Here, Chelsea Higgs Wise, executive director of Marijuana Justice, a Richmond-based group fighting for equitable legalization, walks us through the dos and don’ts of Virginia marijuana use.

face a list of fines, misdemeanors, and other penalties for using marijuana. “We’ve seen an uptick in youth enforcement as states have legalized...though there is no evidence there is an increase in youth consumption of marijuana because a state has legalized,” says Higgs Wise. “We would love to have a bill for state [college] campuses to remove any zero tolerance policies around marijuana,” which fuel the schoolto-prison pipeline. Additionally, since there currently is no legal way to purchase recreational weed, advocates are concerned about what law enforcement will consider an “open container” of marijuana in public places and during traffic stops. In places where weed is legal, a “closed container” is typically a sealed manufacturer’s container, which Virginians do not yet have access to. “This is why our main demand to legislators is to repeal the criminal enforcement... and look into how to create more of a legal and health system around the plant,” says Higgs Wise. “There’s no way to equitably or fairly enforce any of these laws, when we have seen marijuana enforcement disproportionately impact Black people.” “If we want to commit to not repeating our past harms, we need to not put money towards continued enforcement,” adds Higgs Wise, pointing to the extra funding given to police for traffic enforcement within the new laws. And more must be done to repair the harm caused by the decades-long war on drugs, specifically within Black and brown communities, Higgs Wise emphasizes. “What we have to decide next is where the millions of dollars in tax revenue that Virginia will earn go,” she adds. “Will Virginia be the first state to make direct payments to people that have arrests and charges [due] to marijuana?”

Swimming to Tokyo UVA swim team sends five women to summer Olympics By Claudia Gohn

A

s the 2020 NCAA swimming season neared its end, UVA swimmer Kate Douglass found herself eyeing the summer’s Olympic trials. She’d finished the season strong, and she kept working hard, dreaming of the competition in Tokyo. Then COVID happened. The Olympics got postponed and the trials got called off. Douglass was undeterred, though. “It’s just more motivation to work hard,” the New York native told C-VILLE last year. That attitude paid off for Douglass and her teammates. Now she’s one of five swimmers on the UVA women’s team heading to Tokyo this summer after qualifying at a national trial earlier this month. Douglass will swim the 200 meter individual medley, and will be joined by fellow Cavaliers Catie DeLoof (4x100 freestyle relay), Paige Madden (400 freestyle and 4x200 freestyle relay), Alex Walsh (200 individual medley), and Emma Weyant (400 individual medley). UVA’s head swim coach Todd DeSorbo is also joining the team as an assistant coach. The U.S. Olympic swim team will send 26 women to the competition in total, meaning almost 20 percent of the national team comes from UVA. “It’s really a dream come true,” says DeSorbo. The qualifying triumphs come after a roller coaster of a year. The team had to adapt its practice regimen to pandemic regulations, such as allowing fewer swimmers in the pool at once during workouts. Additionally, because of ongoing

maintenance at the UVA pool, the team had to travel to different pools to train. With all of these changes, DeSorbo says, “the team’s performances this year—in the collegiate season and then beyond to their performances at the Olympic trials—are really even more extraordinary because of the circumstances and challenges that we had all year.” Douglass and DeSorbo were also excited about what the Olympians mean for the future of the UVA swim program. “I don’t think a year ago anyone thought that the UVA swim team would put five Olympians on the team,” Douglass says. “It’s just pretty crazy that now UVA can be thought of as a school that will put people on the Olympic team, and I think that’s going to draw a lot more attention than UVA has previously for swimming recruits.” And ACC competitors should watch out next year, too: UVA’s swimmers will have an extra summer’s worth of experience working together, which could be beneficial heading into the regular season. Douglass recalls the feeling when her fingertips touched the side of the pool at the end of the 200-meter individual medley qualifying race. She took second and Walsh, her teammate, finished first, meaning both would compete in the Olympics. “When I touched the wall on the 200 IM and saw that I had gotten second place and Alex had gotten first place, we just looked at each other and like, I can’t even describe the feeling,” Douglass says. “Alex goes, ‘We’re going to Tokyo.’ It was just, I mean, it was an amazing feeling, knowing that you both just made the Olympic team next to each other.”

Dog days Local teacher becomes hot dog hero By Amelia Delphos

Darron Breeden does his thing.

“That feeling you get after Thanksgiving dinner...It’s that times 10.” DARRON BREEDEN

It’s no secret that Charlottesville has an ongoing affordable housing crisis, in part due to the city’s long racist history of segregation, redlining, and racial covenants. Behind a huge push from local activists, the city has set aside millions of dollars in recent years to build more affordable housing units. And after releasing an affordable housing plan this year, Cville Plans Together—a team of consultants hired to rewrite the city’s zoning code—is now working with the community to create a Future Land Use Map that could further address the issues (see story on p. 9). But Charlottesville isn’t the only place in our area struggling with affordable housing. In the Thomas Jefferson Planning District—including the City of Charlottesville and Albemarle, Nelson, Fluvanna, Louisa, and Greene counties—around 10,400 households spend more than 50 percent of their income on housing costs. Over the past four years, the Central Virginia Regional Housing Partnership has studied the specific conditions and issues facing each jurisdiction, and developed dozens of recommendations for local government leaders to meet affordable rental and homeownership needs. Earlier this month, the partnership published a draft of a regional affordable housing plan.

facebook.com/cville.weekly

In the Thomas Jefferson Planning District, most people own their homes, and most people live in single-family dwellings.

“Rising rents, increased development pressure and displacement concerns, [and] inequity brought on by a history of segregationist land use policies...have eroded access to wealth-building for many communities of color, and an imbalance of supply and demand have come together to exacerbate the problem,” reads the report. “Cross collaboration between localities can enable a pooling of resources, increase access, and improve communication to better address the needs of the region as a whole,” the report continues. “A broadened approach also reduces the need for one locality to shoulder the burden of providing affordable housing.” From 2018 to 2019, the planning district solicited feedback from residents across the region, before working with the RHP to analyze responses last year and this year. The majority of survey takers were from Albemarle County and Charlottesville, and identified higher land density as the best way to provide more affordable housing. Residents say single-family homes and less-expensive apartments are the types of housing most needed in our area. While the commission’s recommendations differ for each jurisdiction, common threads include updating zoning to allow for more soft density in single-family neighborhoods, investing in building permanent affordable housing communities, and providing incentives for developers to build multiple types of affordable “missing middle” housing, such as two-family dwellings, duplexes and triplexes, and modular homes. The plan also emphasizes the racial disparity in homeownership in the region. To boost homeownership among residents of color, localities should partner with community nonprofits and large stakeholders, such as the University of Virginia, to provide affordable homeownership education, programs, and opportunities, the partnership suggests. The planning district will continue to review and revise the draft plan, as well as work with the RHP to present it to individual jurisdictions and gather their feedback in the coming weeks.—Brielle Entzminger

CENTRAL VIRGINIA REGIONAL HOUSING PARTNERSHIP

arron Breeden lives a double life. During the week, he teaches business and IT classes to high school students. On the weekend, he stuffs his face. Breeden, an Orange, Virginia, native, is the nation’s third-ranked competitive eater, per Major League Eating. On July 4, he’ll be going for gold in the Nathan’s Famous July Fourth July Hot Dog-Eating Contest on Coney Island. When he’s not training and competing, he’s cooking up content for Darron Eats, his YouTube channel where the food challenges attract over 48,000 subscribers. (Recent videos include “40 HOT DOG SPEED RUN” and “PRO EATER VS. WOOD GRILL BUFFET.) Some of his students are impressed by his not-so-secret alter ego. Others, not as much. “If it doesn’t have to do with Fortnite, or whatever, it’s irrelevant,” Breeden says. Breeden finished second in Nathan’s hot dog competition (the “Super Bowl of competitive eating”) in 2020 and 2019. He’s also a two-time oyster-eating champion, and he holds the record for most cheese curds eaten in six minutes (5 lbs., 2 oz.) and fastest consumption of 48 Oreos and a half gallon of whole milk (two minutes, 28 seconds). Breeden became involved with the competitive eating community in 2015 while teaching English in Japan. He participated in a local restaurant’s challenge to eat a large helping of curry rice in 20 minutes. He beat the record—and kept at it, attempting other food challenges until he qualified for the hot dog contest in 2017. “I can’t speak for all competitive eaters, but I think competitive eating came to us, rather than us going to competitive eating,” Breeden says. “I used to be a bigger guy and I lost a good bit of weight. Even though I lost the weight, I didn’t lose the appetite.” Not many kids dream of growing up and becoming competitive eaters. But for Breeden, competitive eating is more than pushing your body to the limit. “I love the competition. I also love the camaraderie. I’ve met a lot of great people through competitive eating,” he says. “And of course the food is great.” According to his profile on the Major League Eating website, Breeden is “a sixfoot-tall, guitar-playing, motorcycle-riding, weight-lifting crusher of food.” He’s 32 and weighs 165 pounds. Given his stats, it’s hard to believe Breeden’s capable of putting away as much food as he does. “You’d be surprised. There’s a lot of different folks out there competing: bodybuilders, really small girls that are maybe 100 pounds soaking wet, a guy that formerly played basketball,” he says. “As long as you have an appetite, [competitive eating] is for all people, really.” Like any athlete, training helps Breeden stay in shape. If he has a big contest on the

horizon, he trains specifically for that event, practicing by eating as much of that event’s food as possible within the allotted time. But for general stomach capacity upkeep, he eats large amounts of low-calorie food and tops it off with soda and water. “Two hundred calories of cabbage is still a crap-ton of cabbage,” Breeden says with a laugh. As for his stomach, he claims he mostly feels okay after training or a competition. “I would say usually under 10 pounds [of food], I’m feeling all right. Over 10 pounds is a little rough,” Breeden says. “It’s kind of like that feeling you get after Thanksgiving dinner where you’re like, ‘Ah, I ate too much.’ It’s that times 10.” Breeden will take the stage on Coney Island at 12:30pm on Sunday. “A bunch of people eating hot dogs on the Fourth of July,” Breeden says. “How much more American can it get?”

Can you feel it? The city is coming back to life. Music venues are booking shows. Restaurants have more customers than they know what to do with. Popcorn is popping at the movie theaters and kids are whizzing down the waterslide at the pool. Hugs are back in vogue. ¶ COVID isn’t gone, but locally, the last few weeks have seen cases plummet and stay low. Charlottesville and Albemarle recorded less than 50 COVID cases in the entire month of June. (At our peak in February, the area saw 250 new cases us all, casting our society’s weaknesses and inequities into a new and harsher light.

Once here, she gained a reputation for her cooking, and began selling Middle Eastern favorites such as spicy chicken kabob, lamb kabob, dolma, and falafel at the farmers’ market under the name Khadija’s Kitchen.

As we mentioned a couple weeks ago, several new spots are (or are about to) open at Dairy Market, and they include brand-new names and some familiar favorites. Andy McClure, the founder of Citizen Burger Bar and sister location Citizen Bowl, has added Citizen Burger Stand, which features a pared-down version of Citizen Burger’s classic menu with an emphasis on speedy service. For those who lean toward plantbased eating, GRN Burger offers all the staples of a good burger joint but with a completely vegetarian menu. Beef and chicken alternatives, plus dairyfree cheeses, provide plenty of delicious, tree-hugging self satisfaction. The long-running, Filipino food truck Manila Street, owned and operated by Fernando Dizon, has found its brick-and-mortar home at the market. Dizon is excited to be able to share his authentic, made-from-scratch Filipino classics like the pancit and lumpia. Another East Asian dining spot to look forward to is Mashu Festival, headed by Silk Thai chef TK Chin. Mashu will specialize in classic Japanese festival foods including various sushi and sashimi.

var Aass and his wife, Sarah Barrett, moved to Charlottesville from New York in 2012 with a singular purpose: to distill high-quality spirits in a place that, in Aass’ own words, has “heaps of local pride and an understanding and appreciation of all good drink and food.” In 2015, Aass and Barrett’s Spirit Lab Distilling became the first distillery in the City of Charlottesville. While Aass says his previous experience in the wine and spirits industry was an asset, he faced numerous regulatory challenges at both the city and state level. This led to a “quiet start,” he says, but he feels genuinely moved by the growth and support the business has received in the past six years. “Our local fans really validate why Charlottesville was the perfect spot for us [to start a distillery].” Spirit Lab makes a wide range of products sourced from local ingredients, but Aass’ true love is his own version of an American single malt whiskey. With a nod to tradition, along with the goal of a unique and truly local expression, the small batches he produces are a hit with fans and restaurants as far away as Washington, D.C. Virginia Distillery Company, in nearby Lovingston, recently released its American single malt whiskey, Courage & Conviction, after many years of anticipation. With distilled products such as single malt whiskey, distillation is just the beginning of the process. The spirit must also rest in barrels for extended aging, which adds the color, flavor, and complexity that is so sought after. When Virginia Distillery Company was founded in 2011, it started with whiskey distilled overseas and finished locally. Soon, its popular Virginia-Highland product line featured whiskey that was a blend of local and Scottish distillate. The new American Single Malt represents the first product in its line that is made from 100 percent North American-sourced malted barley, fulfilling a vision almost a decade in the making. The initial release is a blend that is 50 percent aged in Kentucky bourbon casks, 25 percent aged in sherry casks, and 25 percent aged in repurposed red wine casks. Recently released solo cask offerings may be of even more interest to whiskey aficionados as they showcase bourbon casks, sherry casks, and wine casks as single bottlings without blending. The four new singles also earned several awards from the American Spirits Council of Tasters in June 2021. Ian Glomski started Vitae Spirits Distillery in Charlottesville after “what could possibly be called a midlife crisis.” Glomski had previous experience in beer and wine, and, like Aass, found the regulatory hurdles difficult. “Virginia ABC implements a convoluted set of statutes and regulations that are

In the ever-expanding central Virginia beverage industry, distilled-spirits makers are keeping pace.

a spaghetti-mess of layers that have built up ever since the end of prohibition,” he says. At Vitae, which was founded in 2015, the spirits are distilled from sugar cane, in the tradition of rum making. This base spirit is the foundation of such products as gin, coffee and orange liqueurs, and barrel-aged products. With all of these, Vitae focuses on local ingredients and features several collaborations with other area producers. Both Glomski and Aass hope for a day when the regulatory landscape is friendlier to growth and sales. Glomski bemoans the “current set of laws that is specifically designed to throttle growth and success” of the industry. He would like a relaxation of regulations controlling what can be served in tasting rooms, an extension of wholesale

pricing (distilleries must pay retail price to buy their own product from the state), and more attention given by ABC stores to local distilleries as compared to large international corporations. Aass explains that Virginia takes a “massive” amount of the bottle price that would otherwise go to the producer. Supporting local makers is in many ways synonymous with looking for high quality,” he says, and the very high cost of doing business threatens the quality of the product. His hope is that legislators will begin to see Virginia craft distilleries less as a small source of tax revenue and more as a source of quality and local pride. “There are plenty of mediocre spirits being made by the huge distilleries, why add to that?” says Aass.

Howling and howling Werewolves Within pairs laughs and deaths By Deirdre Crimmins arts@c-ville.com

AMAZON

C

A tiny town full of oddball characters serves as the backdrop for the comedy-horror whodunit Werewolves Within.

The tension would be riveting on its own, thanks to performances from the brilliant ensemble cast, but the innkeeper’s missing husband, the little bichon frise who is killed violently, and the massive claw marks around town all point to the possibility that there is a werewolf on the loose in Beaverfield.

Soon after Finn’s arrival, a massive snowstorm hits, and everyone is forced to head to the big inn on the hill to stay safe and warm. It is there that the film morphs into the murder mystery we have been waiting for. Though it doesn’t quite match Clue or Knives Out, Werewolves Within manages to maintain its own roster of amplified personalities and motives. As bodies drop and accusations fly, the night gets more deadly. The tension would be riveting on its own, thanks to performances from the brilliant ensemble cast, but clues start to suggest there’s something supernatural afoot. The innkeeper’s missing husband, the little bichon frise who is killed violently, and the massive claw marks around town all point to the possibility that there is a werewolf on the loose in Beaverfield. The classic horror monster is played for laughs, but the mounting evidence points

to things becoming even more dangerous. Even with this pressing threat, the townsfolk refuse to put down their guns and solve their differences like friends. Werewolves Within manages to avoid common genre pitfalls by being either scary or

Werewolves Within R, 97 minutes Amazon Prime funny in each moment, and there is a genuine mystery to figure out: Who or what is doing all the killing? This balance is tricky, but Ruben manages to pull it off with the confidence of a seasoned filmmaker. It’s not easy to get an audience to laugh at death while dreading the next murder.

ombining a classic whodunit with werewolves may seem like an awkward fit. But in Werewolves Within, the two elements complement each other, resulting in a hilarious, bloody blend that avoids feeling bloated or tonally confused. The second feature from actor-turned-director Josh Ruben, Werewolves Within comes hot on the heels of his directorial debut Scare Me, a single-location film with so few actors you can count them on one hand. While Scare Me gave Ruben a chance to show the world how much he could do with so little, Werewolves Within is a scaled-up foray into more ambitious filmmaking—it includes a whole town to explore and a gaggle of townsfolk in an ensemble cast. Not only is the film a step forward for its director, Werewolves Within is also the second feature from fledgling film studio Ubisoft, best known as a video-game production house. Not surprisingly, the roots of this lycanthropic murder mystery lie in a similarly themed video game of the same title where players try to figure out who the werewolf is. Werewolves Within starts with a hint of sinister goings-on in the town of Beaverfield, and the story is anchored by the likable park ranger Finn (Sam Richardson). Finn is new to town, and within a few moments of arriving, local postal worker Cecily (Milana Vayntrub) gives him the lay of the land and spills the tea on everyone. Like most small towns, Beaverfield’s residents have plenty of history with each other—but they’re also faced with a modern crisis, grappling with whether or not to allow the construction of a gas pipeline. The tensions are not simmering; they are aggressively boiling at the surface, and the neighbors are not subtle about them.

In 1989, Dennis Horton and longtime business partner Joan Bieda acquired 55 acres for the beginning of Horton Vineyards. The task of establishing the vineyard was given to Dennis’ wife Sharon, a nurse by trade, whose meticulous nature was reflected in the manicuring of the East Coast’s most unique vineyard. 1993 saw the first crush at the new Horton Cellars and in 1994 additional acreage came into production with plantings of Bordeaux, Portuguese, South African, Georgian

By Rob Brezsny

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Leo author Wendell Berry suggests, “It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work, and when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey.” Although there’s wisdom in that formulation, I don’t think it’s true a majority of the time. Far more often we are fed by the strong, clear intuitions that emerge from our secret depths—from the sacred gut feelings that give us accurate guidance about what to do and where to go. But I do suspect that right now may be one of those phases when Berry’s notion is true for you, Leo. What do you think?

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In 1750, more than 250 years after Columbus first visited the New World, Native Americans were still a majority of the continent’s population. But between 1776 and now, the United States government stole 1.5 billion acres of land from its original owners—25 times the size of the United Kingdom. Here’s another sad fact: Between 1778 and 1871, America’s federal administrations signed more than 500 treaties with indigenous tribes—and broke every one of them. The possibility that these sins will eventually be remedied is very small. I bring them up only to serve as possible metaphors for your personal life. Is there anything you have unfairly gained from others? Is there anything others have unfairly gained from you? The next six months will be prime time to seek atonement and correction.

June 30 – July 6, 2021 c-ville.com

facebook.com/cville.weekly

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct.22): Libran Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh advises you and me and everyone else to “seek the spiritual in every ordinary thing that you do every day.” You have to work at it a bit, he says; you must have it as your firm intention. But it’s not really hard to do. “Sweeping the floor, watering the vegetables, and washing the dishes become holy and sacred if mindfulness is there,” he adds. I think you Libras will have a special knack for this fun activity in the coming weeks. (Thich Nhat Hanh wrote a series of Mindfulness Essentials books that includes How to Eat, How to Walk, How to Relax, and How to Connect. I invite you to come up with your own such instructions.)

CULTURE FREE WILL ASTROLOGY

Cancer

(June 21-July 22): Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche said that when our rational minds are working at their best, they inspire us to cultivate our most interesting and enlivening passions. They also de-emphasize and suppress any energy-draining passions that might have a hold on us. I’m hoping you will take full advantage of this in the coming weeks, Cancerian. You will generate good fortune and sweet breakthroughs as you highlight desires that uplift you and downgrade desires that diminish you.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): My unexpected interpretation of the current astrological omens suggests that you will be wise to go naked as much as possible in the coming weeks. Being skyclad, as the pagans say, will be healing for you. You will awaken dormant feelings that will help you see the world with enhanced understanding. The love that you experience for yourself will soften one of your hard edges, and increase your appreciation for all the magic that your life is blessed with. One important caveat: Of course, don’t impose your nakedness on anyone who doesn’t want to witness it.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): If you analyzed the best-selling songs as measured by Billboard magazine, you’d think we were in the midst of a dangerous decline in population. The vast majority of those popular tunes feature lyrics with reproductive themes. It’s as if there’s some abject fear that humans aren’t going to make enough babies, and need to be constantly cajoled and incited to engage in love-making. But I don’t think you Sagittarians, whatever your sexual preference, will need any of that nagging in the coming days. Your Eros Quotient should be higher than it has been in a while.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Pulitzer Prize-winning author Donna Tartt, born under the sign of Capricorn, writes, “Beauty is rarely soft or consolatory. Quite the contrary. Genuine beauty is always quite alarming.” In my view, that’s an unwarranted generalization. It may sometimes be true, but is often not. Genuine beauty may also be elegant, lyrical, inspiring, healing, and ennobling. Having said that, I will speculate that the beauty you encounter in the near future may indeed be disruptive or jolting, but mostly because

it has the potential to remind you of what you’re missing—and motivate you to go after what you’ve been missing.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): On July 21, 1969, Aquarian astronaut Buzz Aldrin was the second human to walk on the moon. It happened during a spectacular astrological aspect, when transiting Jupiter and Uranus in Libra were trine to Aldrin’s natal Sun in Aquarius. But after this heroic event, following his return to Earth, he found it hard to get his bearings again. He took a job as a car salesman, but had no talent for it. In six months, he didn’t sell a single car. Later, however, he found satisfaction as an advocate for space exploration, and he developed technology to make future trips to Mars more efficient. I hope that if you are now involved in any activity that resembles Aldrin’s stint as a car salesman—that is, a task you’re not skilled at and don’t like—you will spend the coming weeks making plans to escape to more engaging pursuits.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Astronomers say the Big Bang birthed the universe 13.8 billion years ago. But a star 190 light years away from Earth contradicts that theory. Its age seems to be 14.5 billion years, older than the universe itself. Its scientific name is HD 140283, but it’s informally referred to as Methuselah, named after the Biblical character who lived till age 969. Sometimes, like now, you remind me of that star. You seem to be an impossibly old soul—like you’ve been around so many thousands of lifetimes that, you, too, predate the Big Bang. But guess what: It’s time to take a break from that aspect of your destiny. In the next two weeks, you have cosmic permission to explore the mysteries of playful innocence. Be young and blithe and curious. Treasure your inner child.

Aries (March 21-April 19): Columnist Linda Weltner says that there’s a dual purpose to cleaning your home, rearranging the furniture, adding new art to the walls, and doting on your potted plants. Taking good care of your environment is a primary way of taking good care of yourself. She writes, “The home upon which we have lavished so much attention is the embodiment of our own self love.” I invite you to make that your inspirational meditation for the next two weeks.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): “For peace of mind, I will lie about any thing at any time,” said author Amy Hempel. Hmmm. I’m the opposite. To cultivate peace of mind, I try to speak and live the truth as much as I can. Lying makes me nervous. It also seems to make me dumber. It forces me to keep close track of my fibs so I can be sure to stick to my same deceitful story when the subject comes up later. What about you, Taurus? For your peace of mind, do you prefer to rely on dishonesty or honesty? I’m hoping that for the next four weeks, you will favor the latter. Cultivating judicious candor will heal you and boost your intelligence.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): In her essay about education, “Don’t Overthink It,” philosopher Agnes Callard reminds us, “No matter how much we increase our investment at the front end—perfecting our minds with thinking classes, long ruminations, novel-reading, and moral algebra—we cannot spare ourselves the agony of learning by doing.” That will be a key theme for you in the next four weeks, dear Gemini. You will need to make abundant use of empiricism: pursuing knowledge through direct experience, using your powers of observation and a willingness to experiment.

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY

NEWS & VIEWS Local Real Estate News Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville creates improved housing opportunities despite impact of COVID-19 on existing housing challenges For many families in Charlottesville, the economic turmoil caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the past year has exposed an already fragile housing infrastructure. However, undeterred by new and existing home affordability challenges, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville has leveraged its homebuilding operations and grass roots support to advocate for policies and creative solutions that have led or will lead to improved housing opportunities for 2,700 local households. “We all know that we can’t simply build our way out of this crisis,” said Habitat President and CEO Dan Rosensweig. “We need policy and partnership solutions. We need new ways of thinking. We need a collective and strategic approach to truly meet our aspirations as a community.” Habitat Charlottesville’s efforts are part of a national campaign—Cost of Home—that aims to reduce housing poverty by 10 million families over a five year period. Thus far, two years into the campaign, Habitat has increased access to affordable housing for more than 4 million people. As the pandemic compounds the need for housing stability and affordability, the Cost of Home framework gives Habitat a solid platform to effectively address and respond to the urgent needs facing local communities. Although the impact of the economic fallout continues to unfold, Habitat Charlottesville has seen substantial gains in access to affordable housing in Greater Charlottesville. Including Habitat’s now-underway redevelopment without displacement of the Southwood Mobile Home Park, thousands of new or rehabbed units are now in the pipeline. These units include the revitalization of local public and Section 8 housing and a new housing community for neighbors experiencing homelessness, plus numerous affordable homeownership opportunities. Over the past two years, Habitat Charlottesville supported the creation of Cville Homeownership Advocates, a network of business leaders, faith leaders, nonprofits and Habitat homeowners, to engage in policy-driven affordable homeownership advocacy. In the past year, Habitat Charlottesville launched a Cost of Home Advocates training program with an inaugural cohort of 18 people. Cohort members met monthly to learn about the housing

system and discuss how to advocate for safe, decent, and affordable housing in Charlottesville. Habitat also incorporated advocacy training into their Homebuyer Education classes, so that all future Habitat Homeowners understand how they can “pay it forward” by participating to support those still seeking an affordable place to live. Cost of Home Advocates and Habitat Homebuyers have been active over the last year in numerous local planning processes, working to create stronger policies to support affordable homeownership. Mariam Anwary, daughter of a Habitat Homeowner in Charlottesville, describes the power of advocacy: “Being an advocate is holding the key to every problem in the world... as long as you are an advocate you have the key to the problem and you have the key to the lock, and you can open any lock that you want to.” Future Habitat Homeowner Lakeshia Washington describes her advocacy journey: “Becoming a Cost of Home advocate helped me find my voice in speaking up about affordable homeownership opportunities in our community, especially for people of color... I learned about our history and current day disparities that many families face around housing… In order for our community to be better, we have to do better and that starts with dismantling the disparities around affordable housing and homeownership opportunities.” As the campaign moves closer toward its target of increasing home affordability for 10 million people, Habitat for Humanity Greater Charlottesville will continue to address the home affordability challenges that have been revealed and exacerbated in recent years. Communities need to continue to prioritize housing, until the cost of home is something everyone can afford. For more information on the national Cost of Home campaign and how to get involved, visit habitat.org/costofhome. For more information about Cost of Home Advocacy in Charlottesville, visit cvillehabitat.org/how-to-help/cost-ofhome.html About Habitat: Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville brings people together to build and rebuild homes and communities while catalyzing new pathways to safe, decent affordable housing. Our work has evolved from building one house at a time to developing vibrant, sustainable, mixed-income communities, where local families can achieve their dreams of homeownership. Since our founding in 1991, we have built 225 new homes and safely housed 2,000 neighbors, thanks to the commitment and dedication of our thousands of volunteers and supporters.

L

iberty, it has fresh meaning this Independence Day. The liberty to be out and about and doing as we please; to associate, without fear, with whom we choose; and to congregate and celebrate freedoms we took for granted two years ago but appreciate anew today. Let’s enjoy it! The nation’s fifth president, James Monroe, not only fought in the Revo-

guests bring blankets and lawn chairs to maximize social distancing on the grassy, Pavilion Yard. Picnickers are welcome! Masks are required when six feet of social distancing cannot be maintained. Masks are also required inside of all interior spaces at Highland, including the Museum shop. Highland does not permit pets on the property. Leashed service animals, as defined by the ADA, are excepted.

Graves Mountain Lodge At Graves Mountain Lodge in Syria you’re in touch with American history. Captain Thomas Graves was the first of his family to come to the New World, sailing the Mary and Margaret to Jamestown in 1608. The Captain served as a representative to the Virginia Assembly at Jamestown in 1619, and later sat on the House of Burgesses in the colonial capital of Williamsburg. In 1852 Paschal Graves opened an “ordinary” (an inn) along the Blue Ridge Turnpike on the land that is now part of the Shenandoah National Park. Five years later, the family moved to Syria.

Mountain Wine Shop and Bold Rock Tap Room. Bring your dancing shoes for live music from Root Cellar Remedy, an eclectic sound the group calls “Bonfire Rock,” brewed locally in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Tickets for the Carter festivities are $20 for adults 16 and up, and $10 for children. A portion of the event proceeds will go to the Celebrate Us Fireworks Fund, which benefits the Ronald McDonald House of Charlottesville. Carter Mountain Orchard will not have its own fireworks but will be the perfect setting to see all the other local fireworks displays, which should begin around 9:00 p.m. Masks are recommended for non-vaccinated guests. Pets, outside food and beverages, smoking, and tailgating are not permitted. The rain date is Monday, July 5.
