It’s a big bad week in higher education as Gov. DeSantis throws out yet more nonsensical red meat to the base; veterans can now access free emergency mental health care, and other news you may have missed in the last week.

» Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ war on woke ideology in higher education threatens academic freedom

This week was chock-full of higher education news, thanks to DeSantis’ ongoing “anti-woke” crusade on campuses. In pursuit of what some call “academic freedom” and others (like former State Rep. Carlos Guillermo Smith) describe as the literal opposite, the Florida College System — which is beholden to the DeSantis administration — released a vague joint statement last week stating they wouldn’t fund classes, initiatives or policies that “compel” belief in critical race theory, intersectionality and “related concepts.” Presidents of 28 state colleges, including Valencia College, Lake-Sumter State College, Seminole State College and Polk State College, signed it. This came on the heels of DeSantis blasting “trendy ideologies” in higher ed earlier this month. But the statement itself is a head-scratcher. It touts the importance of ensuring there is no suppression of “intellectual and academic freedom, freedom of expression, viewpoint diversity, and the pursuit of truth in teaching and learning,” while perpetuating the idea that there is an existing mass campaign by Florida faculty and higher ed institutions to “push ideologies such as critical race theory and its related tenets.” As if Florida professors haven’t read their damn job descriptions. WTF does academic freedom mean anymore, anyway?

» DeSantis probes for info about diversity initiatives and trans healthcare at Florida public colleges Yeah, we mentioned it was a big week for higher education news. Continuing to target treatment for transgender people, the DeSantis administration is requiring state universities to provide information from the past five years about services they have provided to people with gender dysphoria. Universities will be required to answer a lengthy list of questions, including the numbers of people who sought “sexreassignment treatment,” numbers of people prescribed such things as hormones and puberty blockers, and numbers of people who underwent surgical treatments such as mastectomies. Answers to these questions are due by Feb. 10 — the same day the Florida Board of Medicine is holding a hearing on their plans to restrict genderaffirming care for minors. As to the university reporting requirements, the memo requesting that information did not detail what the DeSantis administration will do with the information. Personally identifiable information is specifically requested to NOT be included. But we’re seeing a troubling pattern. The administration has taken a series of steps during the past year to curb treatment for transgender people, including prohibiting Medicaid coverage for such treatments as puberty blockers, hormone therapy and gender-reassignment surgery.

Veterans can now access free emergency mental healthcare services under new VA policy

Under a new policy from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the VA will cover all emergency mental healthcare services at no cost for veterans experiencing an “acute suicidal crisis” — including vets who are not enrolled in the VA healthcare system. According to the VA, this move expands access to that care for up to 9 million U.S. veterans. The VA will also cover transportation costs, appointment fees and expenses for up to 30 days of inpatient care and 90 days of outpatient treatment related to an acute suicidal crisis, defined as being “at imminent risk of self-harm” as determined by a trained crisis responder or health care provider. The goal, according to the VA, is to help reduce veteran suicide deaths. The Orlando VA says that veterans experiencing a mental health emergency can contact the Veteran Crisis Line by dialing 988, then pressing 1, or by dialing 1-800-273-8255. They can also text 838255 or visit veteranscrisisline.net for help.

» A federal judge said DeSantis violated the Florida Constitution, but dismissed suit filed by the progressive prosecutor he ousted While finding that Gov. Ron DeSantis’ suspension of Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren violated the law, a federal judge last week grudgingly ruled that he lacked the power to reinstate the twice-elected Democrat. ICYMI:

Warren filed a lawsuit after DeSantis suspended him in August, replacing him with an unelected appointee. In part, Warren argued that DeSantis violated his First Amendment rights. In DeSantis’ executive order suspending Warren, he accused the prosecutor of “incompetence and willful defiance of his duties,” pointing to a letter Warren signed pledging to avoid enforcing Florida’s new abortion law, which bans most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy, as well as a statement Warren joined condemning the criminalization of transgender people and gender-affirming care. The judge last week said DeSantis and his aides targeted Warren because of the prosecutor’s left-leaning approach — and said DeSantis could “simply rescind the suspension” (unlikely). As of last Friday, it wasn’t clear whether Warren would challenge the dismissal of his case, but Warren pledged to an audience of reporters that “this is not over.”

» Orlando International Airport named worst airport in the U.S. for delays

Yes, it’s true. Orlando International Airport had the highest number of flight delays in 2022, earning it the title of worst airport in the country — or so says the vacation planning site Family Destinations Guide. The site editors compiled data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics to determine which airports in the U.S. have both the longest delays and the highest incidence of delays. Orlando International Airport came out with the most delays, with 28.24 percent of all flights in 2022 delayed. MCO was one of four Florida airports, including Tampa International Airport, listed in the top 10 worst U.S. airports. Orlando’s air hub, also named one of the country’s busiest airports early last year, continues to see workers pushing for more reasonable living wages, benefits and improved working conditions — workers who aren’t to blame for those delays, so be nice, tip your wheelchair attendants and baggage handlers, and ask the airlines (not their lowest-paid workers trying to make ends meet) to step up.

ORLANDO JOINS NATIONAL MARCH FOR ABORTION RIGHTS

As state Republicans work to further restrict or eliminate reproductive rights, Dems adopt a ‘delay, amend, destroy’ agenda

After a long year of attacks on abortion rights, Florida’s LGBTQ+ communities and the teaching of “controversial” issues in classrooms — and the faculty and teachers who facilitate it — Orlando Democrats kicked off 2023 with a rally in support of abortion access.

Under overcast skies, a crowd of about 200 people gathered downtown at Orlando City Hall early Saturday afternoon. A counter-protest was also scheduled, but ended up being just, like, five lonely people standing in front of the Bank of America building.

Saturday’s pro-choice rally, organized by State Rep. Anna Eskamani as part of a national weekend of action for abortion rights, was staged just one day before the 50th anniversary of the US Supreme Court’s landmark Roe v. Wade decision, which guaranteed a constitutional right to abortion. It was just one of at least 18 planned events in Florida, including an event in Tallahassee on Sunday that’s getting a visit from special guest Vice President Kamala Harris. But the commemoration is a sober one. In June 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade with their decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, rolling back generations of reproductive rights.

Only 48 hours after the ruling, abortion care providers had closed across nine states. Today, abortion is effectively banned in 13 states. And, according to Abortion Finder, a project of the nonprofit Power to Decide, 14 states are now without a health center that offers any abortion care, impact-

ing more than 72 million people.

Eskamani, a former employee, volunteer and patient of Planned Parenthood, kicked off Saturday’s rally early afternoon, flanked by a group of local state representatives, community activists and abortion rights advocates — including new Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost.

“I would not be where I am today, or who I am today, if it wasn’t for my access to reproductive health,” Eskamani said. Last year, Florida’s Republican-dominated legislature successfully pushed through legislation, signed by Gov. DeSantis, that bans most abortions after roughly 15 weeks of pregnancy, without exceptions for cases of rape or incest. A legal challenge to that law is being considered by the state Supreme Court, but that hasn’t stopped Republican lawmakers from teasing further restrictions.

Last week, Florida House Speaker Paul Renner told reporters, “We [the House] have a ‘pro-life’ majority,” indicating that the GOP could easily push for a stricter abortion ban this year during the 2023 legislative session. State Senate President Kathleen Passidomo, a Republican, has also voiced support for pursuing a 12-week abortion ban, this time with exceptions for victims of rape or incest.

“This is all about control,” Eskamani argued. “It was never about life. If it was about life, why don’t Republicans expand Medicaid here in Florida? Why don’t we pass this assault weapons ban?” Eskamani asked the crowd, earning cheers.

Maxwell Frost, the first member of Gen Z and first Afro-

Cuban elected to Congress, was up next. He also expressed dismay with the priorities of conservative politicians who dubiously mistake generous donations from anti-abortion groups for popular support among the American populace for abortion bans.

“The first things I voted on in Washington, D.C., were two anti-freedom, anti-abortion pieces of legislation,” Frost shared. “Two things meant to rip away the freedoms and rights of our people all across this country.”

As Democrats often do, Frost — like other speakers — encouraged Floridians to get out and vote for legislators “who actually give a shit about us,” and who will “value people over profits.”

Polls from last year showed most Florida voters oppose abortion bans. Anti-abortion activists, however — including groups such as Students for Life, March for Life and Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America — are pushing for even stricter bans in states like Florida, Virginia, North Carolina and Nebraska, per the Washington Post, as part of a campaign to recriminalize abortion procedures that’s years in the making.

And it’s poor folks, Black and brown folks who are less likely to have access to generational wealth, and folks who live in abortion deserts who will be impacted the most, abortion rights advocates say. “Not only are these bans classist and sexist, they’re also racist,” said State Rep. LaVon Bracy Davis, a Democrat of West Orange County.

A recent analysis by the Economic Policy Institute, a leftleaning think tank, found that states with tighter abortion restrictions, including Florida, were more likely to have lower minimum wages, lower rates of Medicaid expansion, a higher incarceration rate, lower unionization levels and a weaker unemployment insurance system.

But several speakers on Saturday also made it clear this isn’t just about abortion access. Rather, that abortion bans are just one component of a broader conservative agenda that’s materialized in Florida — and other Republican-heavy states. Advocates say public education, LGBTQ+ rights and safety, and academic freedom (no, not DeSantis’ definition of such) are also on the line.

“Now, we’re not only fighting these threats to our bodies, but in the state of Florida, we are fighting threats to our minds, to the freedom to learn about the complexity and wonder of difference and diversity in our world,” said Dr. Jen Sandoval, a UCF professor and chief negotiator for her union, the United Faculty of Florida at UCF.

“These attacks are based in fear,” Sandoval said, “and I gotta tell you, they should be afraid, because we are not backing down.”

After about an hour, the rally officially transitioned into a cop-heavy march to the federal courthouse. Dozens of Orlando Police Department officers (reader, I did try to count) were on standby, either blocking off traffic along

the route with marked and unmarked vehicles, or zipping by along the perimeters of the marching crowd on bicycles — as chants of “Whose streets? Our streets!” and “Abortion rights are human rights” reverberated down the streets of downtown.

Marchers — varying in age, race, ethnicity, disability status — were surrounded on essentially all sides by the very same public employees ostensibly involved in the process of enforcing the criminalization of abortion care. Orlando Weekly asked OPD and Rep. Eskamani’s team about who organized the police presence. The latter said police were notified of the event during the required permitting process — and thus, flagged it — but that they didn’t explicitly request they show up. One OPD officer and a sergeant on site told us they didn’t have an answer.

Abigail, 23, drove to the Orlando march on Saturday from Republican-heavy Brevard County. It was her first time attending a rally, and she braved the trip alone, after her partner was called into work. She told Orlando Weekly it was a 2023 resolution of hers to get more politically involved, not just in work concerning abortion rights, but LGBTQ+ issues as well. “I feel like the attacks on the LGBTQ community, the attacks on abortion rights, are pretty hand in hand,” said Abigail.

Vicki Impoco and Nelly Cardinel, both self-described activists, told Orlando Weekly they’ve been involved with human rights advocacy — including the fight for reproductive rights — for decades. Impoco, of Satellite Beach, said if lawmakers fail to protect Floridians, and Americans more broadly, from abortion bans, she predicts the re-emergence of something like the Jane Collective, an underground network in the 1960s and early ’70s that illegally provided abortions pre-Roe

“We’re here to voice our outrage” over abortion restrictions, said Impoco. “What else can we do?”

Florida, the third most populous state in the country, is considered by some senior Biden administration officials to be “at the forefront of the fight” for abortion. It’s long been a safe haven of sorts for accessing abortion care in the South, as many neighboring Southern states have imposed stricter regulations or bans on abortion procedures.

Last year, there were more than 68,000 abortions reported in the state of Florida, still down from 79,817 in 2021, according to data collected by the state Agency for Healthcare Administration.

While the landscape for the future of abortion access seems grim, there are also cities and states that have stepped up to blunt the impact of last year’s Supreme Court decision. Five states granted protections for abortion rights in the first post-Roe election in 2022. Some cities, like Atlanta and Philadelphia, have passed measures allocating money to donate to abortion funds in the wake of Roe’s fall. The city of St. Petersburg, Florida, is mulling over the idea.

“We’re going to fight until abortion is accessible for everybody, until sexual liberation is a safe reality for everybody,” Stephanie Loraine Pineiro, executive director of the Florida Access Network (an abortion fund with several offices across the state), said on Saturday.

Eskamani told Orlando Weekly that supporting abortion funds like the Florida Access Network is part of the longterm vision to support abortion access: making sure financial barriers don’t exist in cases where abortion is particularly cost-prohibitive. If you’re on Medicaid, for instance — which doesn’t cover abortion care in Florida — or don’t have insurance, or don’t have any alternative funding source.

But with the 2023 legislative session just around the corner, that also means adopting the tactics to “delay, amend,

HEART OF GLASS

Windows of Milk District LGBTQ bar shot out in apparent hate crime

It’s a Sunday night at the Milk District LGBTQ+ bar District Dive and even though it’s the waning hours of the weekend, the spot is jumping. Spirits are high, drinks are dutifully slung, and no one seems to pay much mind to the boards covering several of the large picture windows facing out into the street.

And yet, it’s been almost a week with no answers since the windows of District Dive — part of the sprawling Southern Nights complex at Bumby Avenue and South Street — were shot out in what the owners are understandably characterizing as a hate crime.

Security-camera footage posted to District Dive’s Facebook page last Wednesday afternoon shows the latenight shooting, which also targeted Southern Craft, in real time as it happened. The incident occurred after 3:30 a.m., so thankfully all the bars were closed and the employees were out, but eight windows were shattered.

The video, posted by District Dive staff, shows a man — face concealed by a hoodie — walking slowly up to the windows on the South Street side of the building at close range and peering through them several times, then glass shattering in the windows one at a time shortly thereafter.

“Early Wednesday morning between the hours of 3:30a and 4:00a the Southern Nights Complex (District Dive, Southern Craft and Southern Nights) was a target of a hate crime,” read the accompanying Facebook post.

“It’s really just daunting and scary and sad. Especially being in Orlando. Especially with the social climate. Especially with one of our safe spaces being attacked,” said Southern Nights spokesperson Blue Star to Orlando Weekly “Everybody that I know within the community is trying to get some answers.”

As District Dive is part of the largest LGBTQ nightlife complex in Orlando — anchored by longstanding nightclub Southern Nights — and with the shadow of Pulse always lingering in the periphery of our collective memory, it becomes difficult to draw any conclusion other than deliberate hate crime.

Local progressive lawmakers were quick in their respons-

es to the incident, tweeting out support to the area LGBTQ community.

“My heart is so heavy — early Wednesday morning between the hours of 3:30am and 4:00am the Southern Nights Complex (District Dive, Southern Craft and Southern Nights) was a target of a hate crime,” State Rep. Anna Eskamani posted on Twitter.

“Orlando’s top LGBTQ bar strip has been vandalized,” tweeted Orlando politician and LGBTQ activist Carlos Guillermo Smith. “Please be careful out there, ya’ll!”

Despite the damage to the building, the windows were promptly boarded up, and District Dive, Southern Craft and Southern Nights all reopened on Wednesday, for normal business hours, and stayed open through the rest of the week.

“We’re a resilient community,” says Blue Star. “Once again, it’s that common statement that we will not let hate win. It’s just the way that it is. It’s the mantra that we live by. The owner made the decision, and the staff and the management made the decision, to move forward and just stand strong. And we support that.”

That defiance is shared by bar patrons. “I’ve not been deterred and have been back three times since the vandalism occurred,” said District Dive regular Scott Stowell to OW. “I will not let some awful person stop me from socializing with my community.”

The staff of District Dive urge anyone with any information on the incident to contact the Orlando Police Department.

By all appearances, OPD seem to be treating the incident as more than just garden-variety vandalism. In a public statement last week, OPD chief Eric Smith said: “The Orlando Police Department does not tolerate criminal behavior of any kind. Whoever committed this brazen vandalism against our city’s LGBTQ+ businesses will be held accountable.”

But going on a week later, the investigation seemed as yet to have not turned up anything concrete. “We are still actively investigating,” said an OPD spokesperson to Orlando Weekly on Friday afternoon. feedback@orlandoweekly.com

A CULTURE-WAR NAPOLEON

wanted this to happen.”

That was the explanation Larry Keefe, a Republican political hack working for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, offered in federal court when asked why he doggedly pushed for the suspension of Andrew Warren, the district attorney of Hillsborough County.

There was no justification for Warren’s suspension, U.S. District Court Judge Robert Hinkle ruled last week. He hadn’t violated any law or ethical norm. He never demonstrated incompetence or neglected his duty as a prosecutor. He did not — as DeSantis falsely alleged in his Aug. 4, 2022, order suspending Warren — have “blanket” nonprosecution policies.

“[Warren] never said he would not prosecute a case that absolutely deserved to be prosecuted. Quite the contrary,” Hinkle wrote. “He said repeatedly that discretion would be exercised at every stage of every case.”

Warren to liberal philanthropist (and Jewish person) George Soros, who funds an organization that funds an organization that put out a pro-abortion-rights statement that Warren (along with dozens of other prosecutors) signed, which means … something?

“Soros has supported Warren and other ‘progressive prosecutors’ through a series of shell organizations, affiliates and passthrough entities, including the Democratic Party,” the draft added.

“There it was, stripped of pretext: a motivating factor in Mr. Warren’s suspension was that he was a ‘progressive prosecutor,’ Hinkle wrote. “He was being supported by a contributor to, of all things, the Democratic Party.”

Seeking to curry favor with the far right, DeSantis appeared on Tucker Carlson’s White Power Hour the night he suspended Warren. He later refused to testify under oath.

tarnished by the insurrection he inspired, the criminal investigations he’s hoping to survive, and most importantly, the massive losses his endorsed candidates suffered in November. But DeSantis is no less craven or cynical; as Florida’s governor attempts to emerge from his former benefactor’s shadow, with the far right desperate to find a new, unsullied champion, he might be more dangerous.

DeSantis, of course, first rose to prominence in conservative circles for his gaslighting and defiance of public health guidance during the early COVID pandemic. Last week, he went back to the conspiracytheory well, proclaiming that “almost every study” showed that people who receive boosters are “more likely” to get COVID. (I hope this is self-evident, but DeSantis is either lying or dumb as a rock.)

But perhaps his main claim to fame is as an avid opponent of anything and everything that he considers “woke,” a word so expansive that it now includes Black history. His administration announced that it will block Advanced Placement classes in African American studies, alleging that the course violates some unspecified state law and is, somehow, historically inaccurate.

Florida allows high school students to take AP classes in European history, naturally. But under legislation DeSantis signed into law, it does not allow teachers to discuss material that might make white kids feel bad. (Also under that law, the school system in Jacksonville is currently reviewing whether the third-grade picture book Roberto Clemente: Pride of the Pittsburgh Pirates is too controversial for young minds.)

Though Judge Hinkle said that DeSantis violated both the federal and state constitutions, he dismissed Warren’s lawsuit on what amounted to technicalities. In part, DeSantis won because he operated in bad faith. Hinkle ultimately ruled that while the suspension clearly violated Warren’s First Amendment rights, the alleged reasons for the suspension were pretextual.

Keefe admitted that suspending Warren was the result of a “project,” not an “investigation.” Evidence produced in Warren’s lawsuit showed that DeSantis wanted to target a “reform prosecutor.” Keefe picked Warren after a Google search and a chat with a right-wing sheriff. Drafts of the suspension order — written before DeSantis’ lawyers tried to sanitize it — faulted Warren, a Democrat, for taking money from (wait for it) the Democratic Party.

One draft went out of its way to link

It should go without saying that Warren is an elected official: that the voters of Hillsborough County knew that Warren was a progressive when they elected him, that DeSantis brazenly disregarded them for no reason other than to further his political ambitions.

Even DeSantis’ predecessor, Rick Scott, himself a pustulant boil on the ass of democracy, wasn’t so cavalier. When Orange County voters dared to elect a progressive prosecutor who pledged never to seek the death penalty, Scott merely stripped her office of potential capital cases; he didn’t try to remove her from office.

This window into DeSantis’ callous mindset is worth keeping in mind as he pivots to an expected presidential run in the coming months — and as MAGA operatives try to turn him into Trump Without the Baggage.

The former president’s luster might be

DeSantis invented a “crisis” of “woke” indoctrination, then “fixed” it by rescuing white children from the scourge of learning about the shitty things their ancestors did — and how those shitty things created the modern world — so as to anoint himself a culture-war Napoleon. He similarly invented the crisis of a progressive prosecutor because, as Keefe put it, he “wanted” to.

As the right tries to whitewash DeSantis for a national audience, remember that this is who he really is: a guy who invented a crisis so as to anoint himself a hero. The guy who removed a democratically elected prosecutor because, as Keefe put it, he “wanted” to. The guy who literally flew migrants to Florida from Texas so that he could then deport them to Massachusetts to win points on Fox News.

He’s not Trump Without the Baggage. He’s Trump Without the Entertainment Value.

Ron DeSantis targeted district attorney Andrew Warren not on principle — not that he had the authority do so, even on principle — but simply because he wanted to target a ‘reform prosecutor’

Look up and check out the Orlando artists featured in this year’s Billboard Project at CityArts — or, of course, while driving around town

You’ve already been able to see it on the streets for a few days, but now you can also check out the art of the 2023 Corridor Project Billboard Exhibition in smaller sizes but closer proximity, at CityArts in downtown Orlando, through mid-February.

The Corridor Project once again places the work of a select group of artists from regions along the I-4 corridor on billboards throughout town, hopefully making for a somewhat more eye-catching and less senses-shattering journey throughout our traffic-clogged metropolis. Some pieces are sited on lesser-traveled thoroughfares, but many are on Orange Blossom Trail, John Young Parkway, University Boulevard and other sense-shattering commuter hells.

This public art exhibition is a collaboration between Downtown Arts District and local curator Pat Greene; it is the second such exhibition, with the first having happened a year ago at this time.

“I’ve said before that the idea is a response to COVID,” Greene says. “I figured [even] if

people are isolated, they were still driving. I want to democratize the experience of seeing art, without dumbing it down.”

This year’s cast of artists includes Kelly Berry, Nelson Cardenas, Lisa Cody-Rapport, Leo Cordovi, Roxy Cousino, Anthony Darby, Matt Duke, Tim Edwards, Chad Forsyth, Jim Hobart, Betanya Grant, Jaime Margary, Mär Martinez, Grace Netanya, Johannah O’Donnell, Q Pie, Professor Skyline, Carlos Quintero, JR Ramoutar, Daniel Ringelberg, Juliet Romeo, Gisela Romero, Kate Shore, Ivan Smith, Dave Sonnenberg, Quillsong, Rachel Simmons, Skate Bud and 2NES UNOe (featured artist of Orlando Weekly’s Best of Orlando in 2017).

The Downtown Arts District has assembled a handy breakdown of each billboard’s location complete with imagery thumbnails if you want to see ’em all (downtownarts district.com/the-corridor-project), while their smaller-sized prototypes are on display at CityArts through Feb. 12.

Get a rare look inside Orlando’s Florida Coral Rescue Center on the newly rebooted ‘Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom’

When I mention coral reefs and the challenges they face due to climate change, you probably think first of Australia or the Caribbean before Central Florida, and you certainly don’t envision the industrial wasteland that is Orlando’s South Orange Blossom Trail. But unbeknownst to many, inside a nondescript warehouse on the sketchy side of town exists a unique facility fighting to turn the tide in the coral’s favor. Next week this remarkable under-the-radar effort will get nationwide exposure thanks to a recently rebooted television classic, when the new Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom (wildkingdom.com) highlights Orlando’s Florida Coral Rescue Center. Although it’s ordinarily off-limits to the public, I was allowed inside the FCRC last summer during filming of the episode airing on Friday, Feb. 3, and I got to see first-hand how scientists are hoping to restore this crucial ecosystem before it becomes extinct.

If you’re a child of the 1960s or ’70s with fond memories of enjoying the original Wild Kingdom on TV, you’re not alone; Peter Goss also remembers “sitting on the couch with my family, watching Marlin Perkins and Jim Fowler telling stories about wildlife.” The difference is that Goss grew up to join the show as a co-host in 1986, a couple of years before the original series ended its original 25-year run. Goss returns to headline this new series, subtitled Protecting the Wild, and he tells me that Wild Kingdom’s sometimescontroversial filming methods have evolved with the times; instead of using nets and ropes, “we have drones, we have motion sensitive cameras, we have noninvasive ways to film wildlife [so] in some cases, they don’t even know they’re being filmed.”

Goss says the focus of this new series (which is broadcast on RFD-TV and available free online) is on sharing successful conservation projects, “not telling stories about gloom and doom. We’re pointing out the problems we have, and people who have come up with solutions for them.” That brought them to Orlando’s FCRC, which was established almost two years ago in response

to the stony coral tissue loss disease that’s been decimating Florida’s reefs and spreading into the Caribbean since 2014.

Florida’s 360-mile-long reef track is a “biological powerhouse” on par with Australia’s famous Great Barrier Reef, according to Beth Firchau, project coordinator for the Association of Zoos & Aquariums. But it’s also an economic powerhouse that “generates $8.5 billion in revenue for the state of Florida every year, and 70,000 jobs are benefited by the ‘blue economy.’” Because of that, the “localized extinction event” affecting 22 of the 45 corals that form Florida’s reef structures poses serious ecological and economic dangers for the region.

As a result of that threat, researchers began collecting thousands of coral samples in the wild, staying ahead of the disease progression to preserve healthy specimens for safekeeping in facilities like the FCRC. The coral are currently distributed in 22 locations across the country, but Orlando’s 2058-square-foot facility is the project’s epicenter, caring for over 700 of the program’s 2,000 rescuees. Bathed in cool blue light, row after row of the bumpy brain-like polyps — which range from fist-sized to bigger than a bread loaf — soak in shallow trays of seawater, forming a living “bio-bank” that will hopefully safeguard the coral’s gene pool for future transplantation back into their native habitat.

Creating the FCRC required an unprecedented collaboration coordinated by the AZA between Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and NOAA Fisheries, along with corporate competitors SeaWorld and Disney (via their Conservation Fund).

“Disney and SeaWorld have worked together on the animal front for many years,” says Firchau, “[but] this is the first time that

at a corporate level, Disney and SeaWorld said, ‘This is something we need to work together on,’” which helped make the facility possible within a matter of months. In fact, FCRC facility manager Jim Kinsler does double duty as SeaWorld’s aquarium curator, with SeaWorld currently paying for FCRC’s labor and operational oversight with theme park revenue.

And although right now there’s no way for the general public to see the FCRC firsthand, Kinsler hints that SeaWorld is “actively working on a guest-facing element where people will be able to see these corals and the work that the team is doing in the very near future.”

The good news, according to Firchau, is that the FCRC’s corals “have just taken off [and] many of them have grown a lot faster than they would have on the reef.” The bad news: “The crisis out on the reef is not going to go away overnight. These guys aren’t going to be ready to send their offspring off onto the reef overnight. But what we can do is we can learn from what’s going on out there, [and] make sure we’re making good management decisions so that their offspring goes out into a better world.”

Dire predictions of climate catastrophe make it easy to despair, but Goss says, “I stay optimistic because I know that programs like this are creating hope.” He cites the improbable comeback of the California condor as proof that things can improve with enough communal effort and says, “I think hope is going to be what keeps us all going.”

I hope that hopefulness will help the new Wild Kingdom spread the word about FCRC’s work, because, as Firchau says, “Good conservation stewardship never runs out of fashion.”

Taquerías navigating the precarious world of the upmarket $5 taco better be equipped to provide a superior product, lest they face hisses and snarls from the very vocal $2 taco crowd. Luckily for Taco Kat, the new downtown taquería is being met with approving purrs. It’s the first taquería in town to specialize solely in Sonoran-style tacos, of which harina, not maíz, tortillas form the base. Under the charge of Team Market Group executive chef Nick Grecco, Taco Kat makes their tortillas in-house using Sonoran wheat flour. The result: tortillas that are thin, browned, chewy and plenty pliable.

Kat’s cradles aside, it’s the fillings that are Taco Kat’s meow, none more so than the barbacoa ($4.75). The chuck eye roll, marinated in guajillo, morita and ancho chilies and rubbed in adobo, may not be slow-roasted in an underground pit — working in a concrete jungle makes that somewhat problematic — but that didn’t make the grilled-and-braised shreds of beef any less luscious. The taco is finished off with cabbage, onion, cilantro, avocado salsa and salsa roja — toppings patrons are informed

of when placing orders on the touchscreen tablets. We splurged the extra $1.25 to get the chiltepin salsa, a fast-burning condiment made from the berry-like buggers native to Sonora. We scooped a bit of the salsa with fresh-fried chips and tomato-specked guac ($5). Recommend!

But in Sonora, where cattle roam the fields of the northern state, carne asada is, naturally, king. In fact, “carne asada” is also the term used for a gathering where folks partake in quality cuts of unmarinated beef simply grilled over mesquite. Here, Grecco uses a special cut of short rib for his carne asada ($5.25) and cooks it with orange and lime on a hybrid grill laid with the smoky wood. It’s a three-bite banger, but if it’s smoky you want, the pollo asado ($4.50) is just that, thanks to chile de arbol. Grecco adds the chili and dry spices to pineapplemarinated chicken thighs before char-grilling and chopping the bits to fashion the model tacos. They’re nice to look at, much like the vibrant space itself with its wide marquee, bags of flour, crates of onions, margarita dispensers and other taquería trappings.

“We wanted to show guests tortillas being warmed and the chopping from the grill, just as they do in L.A. street taquerías,” says Grecco. “It gives guests a behind-the-scenes look at the action at all hours of the day and night.” Well, most hours. Taco Kat is open until 3 a.m. Tuesdays, Thursdays and weekends, the primary reason being that the taquería is joined at the hip to the “Cool Kats Club” next door. Or more like joined at the vending machine.

Yes, the faux “Kitty Cola” automat is really a portal into a libidinous dimension in the form of a speakeasy tequila lounge (love the wall of Jarritos bottles, BTW), but don’t scream it from the rooftops. If you’re going to shout, shout about the chorizo tacos ($4.50) — they were arguably our favorite of the lot. You can get that chorizo, or any of the proteins, stuffed inside a burrito ($8.50) or a quesadilla ($7), if you so desire. On the veg front, corn esquites ($6) always measure up, as does the tres leches with a torched meringue designed by TMG pastry chef Amanda McFall. What fell short for us were the beverages — a $9 mangonada didn’t compare to, say, the larger $8 fruit gulp offered at Quesa Loco. Same with the $6 watermelon agua fresca served in a coffee-sized recyclable foam cup.

On a positive note, a slew of new menu items will be introduced in the coming weeks — an “El Jefe” burrito with double the proteins and fillings; cheese-pressed tacos with ground beef; house-made taquitos inspired by the ones made famous at Cielito Lindo in L.A.; and nacho plato, like chilaquiles but without the egg.

Oh boy, now I’ve gone and done it. I let the Kat out of the bag.

MONDAY NIGHT, RAW

Lydia Lunch blesses Orlando with her presence again this week. Consider yourself warned

Whether working solo, in a duo, with a full band or larger ensembles, Lydia Lunch has performed thousands of gigs around the world. The next is set for the Timucua Arts Foundation on Monday night, and joining her for the evening is longtime friend Joseph Keckler — a writer, musician, composer, current artist-in-residence at Dartmouth and a veteran of NPR’s Tiny Desk. Together, they’ll be weaving cathartic amalgams of music, spoken word and projections.

Lunch will also be the guest of honor at a pre-show reception earlier in the day at the Orange County Regional History Center. Lest ye forget, the History Center is currently hosting the Figurehead: Music & Mayhem In Orlando’s Underground exhibition. And

head Figure Jim Faherty and Lunch go back decades.

“The Figurehead exhibition is fantastic,” says Lunch, who features prominently in the show. “He’s put on so many shows, brought so many people to Orlando. It’s a good thing that he’s getting recognized, and all the other people involved in Figurehead.”

Lydia’s relationship with Jim Faherty began by chance, with a letter that prompted her to call him.

“I called him,” she says, “and he didn’t believe it was me calling him. So we started booking shows with him, and I gotta give it to the guy for booking 30 spoken-word performances with me and Exene Cervenka — ‘Rude Hieroglyphics.’ I don’t think I’ve had 30 shows in the state since! I don’t

know how he pulled it off, but that’s how it started.”

Lydia Lunch is one of the most compelling public speakers working in any discipline in our lifetime, having released some three dozen albums over the past 40-plus years, in addition to countless EPs, singles, live recordings and collaborations with artists ranging from Einstürzende Neubauten to Sonic Youth. She’s also released a number of books and comic books, at least 16 spokenword albums, and boasts an extensive CV in experimental film dating back to 1978. Not to mention Beth B’s acclaimed documentary, Lydia Lunch: The War Is Never Over, which premiered in 2019.

2019 was also when Lunch launched “The Lydian Spin,” a weekly podcast where

THE ECSTASY OF OBLIVION

7:30 p.m. Monday, Jan. 30

Timucua Arts Foundation 2000 S. Summerlin Ave. timucua.com $25

she leverages the vast array of personal and professional connections she has accumulated. The podcast offers a more accessible version of an artist some folks find superintense and in-your-face. Though it may seem odd to say, time has mellowed Lydia somewhat as it becomes increasingly clear that she was right all along. About everything.

Having maintained personal and professional connections to Florida since the 1980s, and having waged holy war against rightwing thugs since before she was old enough to drive, Lunch shares our general concerns about the state’s political trajectory. And you will hear a whole lot about that on Monday.

Lunch’s fanbase is fiercely, ferociously loyal, in part because she’s been so loyal to her fans from day one — which, for her, was June 2, 1959, a Tuesday, when she was born in Rochester, New York. She moved to New York City at 16, arriving right in time to witness the first stirrings of punk and the inceptions of new wave, No Wave and what would become hip-hop. She was there in the middle of the action as a teenager, and she’s still there today, 45 years later.

To call Lunch precocious would be an understatement. Her first band was Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, who enjoyed an outsized influence on pop culture, despite only releasing a handful of tracks (totaling about 12 minutes in duration) across their three years of existence. They ended in 1979, but Lydia Lunch was just getting started. Over the following five decades, she has been positively epicentric within circles of iconic women creators including Debbie Harry, Poly Styrene, the Breeders, Kim Gordon and Exene Cervenka.

Lunch was, and remains, a feminist icon, whose influence can be felt across the spectrum of public life, not that she would say so.

Her relationship with the Sunshine State dates back to the late 1980s, at least. Her “Harry Crews” project with Kim Gordon and Sadie Mae was named after the iconoclastic cult novelist, Grit Lit luminary and prototypical Florida Man.

She’s been in and around Central Florida longer than most people currently living here, and she has watched its cultural scene evolve dramatically in that time. Essential to that evolution, of course, has been promoter Jim Faherty, whose legacy she has figured in prominently over the years, and vice-versa. Monday night is an occasion to celebrate both these legends, neither of whom will ever retire. Thankfully.

LOCAL RELEASES

While Emerging Shadows is a brandnew band, it’s comprised of longtime players whose backgrounds span the Orlando music map. In addition to other individual credits, vocalist-drummer Joshua Jauz and guitarist Kevin Tuck are both in local electronic act Protosynthesis, and bassist Aaron Mellick has a full CV that includes Afrobeat flagbearers Bengali 600, live beat band One Drop and ska traditionalists Control This. But resist the temptation to try and project what a joint between these three minds would sound like. With a stylistic sprawl like that, the Frankenstein possibilities are mind-boggling at best and horrifying at worst. And those probably wouldn’t come too close to what Emerging Shadows actually are.

While they do indeed have a hybrid sound that’s a merger of post-metal and indie rock, Emerging Shadows’ recently released maiden single “Mudlarking” is a pretty coherent debut. The song is brooding, melodic and heavy, occupying a space similar to Tool’s moodiest moments. “Mudlarking” is up on Bandcamp now but is scheduled to be released on all major streaming platforms on Feb. 3.

CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK

Rod Hamdallah: Besides snowbirds and actual migrating birds, Atlanta garage rocker — and former Legendary Shack Shaker — Rod Hamdallah has become a reliable winter visitor to our area in recent years. Well, it’s January, so here he comes again like clockwork. Hamdallah paints his garage rock in thick blues and soul strokes. Go see one of his rousing performances live and it’ll be pretty obvious why he was J.D. Wilkes’ go-to guitarist for years. (7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 26, Uncle Lou’s, price TBA)

The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band: When this scrappy Indiana act first emerged on the scene in the 2000s, I wasn’t sure if all their old-timey getup and punk energy amounted to much more than schtick. Since then, however, they’ve only gotten deeper, honing their country-blues sound to become pre-eminent and decorated champions of American roots. Between the Reverend’s hot finger-picking slide guitar chops and Breezy Peyton’s high-energy washboard percussion, their folk revivalism always stomps the floorboards with octane and spirit. With their latest album — the concentrated and muscular Dance Songs for Hard Times — they’re riding perhaps the finest work of their career. (8 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 26, Tuffy’s Music Box, $15)

Local Music Merch Swap: As part of us coming into our own as a city, Orlando has recently dug into and celebrated its own oft-overlooked history. Thankfully, that movement’s also been gaining momentum

in the Orlando music scene. Few happenings will manifest that spirit more than the third annual Local Music Merch Swap organized by Orlando Music History, the excellent and active Facebook group run by Michael Lothrop, a deep veteran of the Orlando music community and longtime champion of local culture (and occasional OW photographer). A congregation of native music heads bringing their stashes of old local band merch to swap and share, the affair will be part bazaar, part living history museum and a prime opportunity to grow your own local music collection. In addition to the merch swap — which is free and open to all — there will also be a ticketed showcase of notable homegrown musicians Mike Dunn, Tierney Tough, Tanner Jones and Chase Bauduin. (8 p.m. Friday, Jan. 27, Stardust Video & Coffee; swap is free, concert is $10-$12)

Tenci, Fast Preacher, Zoya Zafar: Powered by the distinctive style of Jess Shoman, these Chicago indie darlings have been increasingly perking up tastemakers’ ears ever since debuting in 2020. Tenci intrigued early on with a left-field indie-folk sound that sometimes bordered on outsider country. Then they followed up with their recent sophomore album (A Swollen River, A Well Overflowing) which tantalized with even greater possibility, broadening their sonic horizons in turns simultaneously more assured and more eccentric. This concert will be an opportunity to catch an exciting act on their way up. Be sure to show up early to catch the arresting torch mystique of Zoya Zafar and the creamy dream funk of Fast Preacher, both exceptional homegrown acts. (7 p.m. Friday, Jan. 27, Henao Contemporary Center, $12-$15) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com

Wicked

The Dr. Phillips Center becomes a gateway to the Emerald City as Wicked arrives in the City Beautiful. The hit musical delves into the backstory of iconic screen villain the Wicked Witch of the West, and how she may not be as evil as we were led to believe in the Wizard of Oz. Wicked continues a seemingly eternal run on Broadway, where it will celebrate its 20th anniversary in October, even as many other long-lasting shows take their final curtain calls. This touring production of Wicked, part of the Dr. Phillips Center’s AdventHealth Broadway in Orlando season, takes audiences on a journey through the ups and downs of an unlikely friendship between witches Elphaba and Glinda, played by Lissa DeGuzman and Jennafer Newberry respectively. You’ll never see Dorothy and co. the same way again.

Through Feb. 12. Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter.org, $53.75$173.75. — Gabby Macogay

Anberlin

WEDNESDAY, JAN. 25

Originally set for last month, but postponed because of COVID — still a thing! — Tampa Bay alternative rockers Anberlin take over the Social starting Thursday for their postponed three-night stand, intended as a 20-year anniversary celebration for the band. Anberlin tackles a different album on each night of this mini-residency: Never Take Friendships Personal, Cities and New Surrender. Besides the nightly album airing, there will also be plenty of crowd-pleasers and deep cuts from other platters thrown in. Even the rockers among us are getting old; might as well mark the occasion with some (more) hearing loss. 7 p.m., The Social, 54 N. Orange Ave., foundation-presents.com, $35. — Matthew Moyer

SATURDAY, JAN. 28

Zora! Outdoor Festival of the Arts

The annual Zora! Festival, honoring the

life and art of author and Eatonville’s own Zora Neale Hurston, is in full swing, and this weekend sees the centerpiece event, the Outdoor Festival of the Arts, happen. The two-day event is really cooking on the Saturday, featuring an international marketplace, food and drink vendors and exhibitors including Bronze Kingdom, Florida Historical Society, Eatonville Public Library and area artisans. Live music will come courtesy headliners Cherrelle, Tony Terry, Franchise Band and Mr. Glenn Wiley. As a sidebar, the Festival also hosts Afrofuturism lectures at Seminole State College of Florida on Wednesday and UCF’s downtown campus on Friday. 9 a.m., Zora Neale Hurston National Museum of Fine Arts. 344 E Kennedy Blvd., Eatonville, zorafestival.org, $20-$100. — MM

SUNDAY, JAN. 29

Trae Crowder

Politically speaking, Florida is the hottest of the many hot messes in America today, and Trae Crowder is coming to the Improv this weekend to tell us about ourselves. His “Liberal Redneck” persona is one of the most original comedic gimmicks in recent memory, and he’s made a national name for himself by calling out conservatives with the vituperation they deserve, in language they speak. Crowder tends to bypass the cheap pop, using razor-sharp phrasing informed by a keen eye for observation that any anthropologist would envy. The current tour takes him through a number of alt-right hubs, and tickets are selling even faster than pitchforks and tiki torches. Seriously though, politics aside, the man is hilarious, and cool as all heck. By all means, catch Crowder’s set, and also go buy his book before the governor has them ground to pulp, then burnt to ashes and buried, probably under a Superfund site. 6 p.m., Orlando Improv, 9101 International Drive, theimprovorlando.com, $32. — Shelton Hull

Okapi

This writer caught Okapi in November of last year, on an anxiety-ridden election night. A packed Stardust Video seemed as good a place as any to pass the time before the much-vaunted “red wave” hit. The wave

of the

didn’t materialize nationally (oh wait, except for in Florida), and we were submerged instead in Okapi’s visceral and coruscating take on chamber music. The Asheville duo deal in catharsis and transcendence only using upright bass and cello, sawing away at their instruments and whipping up an absolute storm. Okapi returns to Orlando on Sunday as part of Timucua Art Foundation’s International Chamber Music Festival. Expect wigs to be duly flipped. 7:30 p.m., Timucua Arts Foundation, 2000 S. Summerlin Ave., timucua.com, $25. — MM

● JAN. 25-31, 2023 ● ORLANDO

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Greek writer Nikos Kazantzakis (1883–1957) was nominated nine times for the prestigious Nobel Prize in Literature, but never won. He almost broke through in the last year of his life, but French author Albert Camus beat him by one vote. Camus said Kazantzakis was “a hundred times more” deserving of the award than himself. I will make a wild prediction about you in the coming months, Aquarius. If there has been anything about your destiny that resembles Kazantzakis’s, chances are good that it will finally shift. Are you ready to embrace the gratification and responsibility of prime appreciation?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Piscean educator Parker Palmer has a crucial message for you to meditate on in the coming weeks. Read it tenderly, please. Make it your homing signal. He said, “Solitude does not necessarily mean living apart from others; rather, it means never living apart from one’s self. It is not about the absence of other people — it is about being fully present to ourselves, whether or not we are with others. Community does not necessarily mean living face-toface with others; rather, it means never losing the awareness that we are connected to each other.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Noah Webster (1758–1843) worked for years to create the first definitive American dictionary. It became a cornucopia of revelation for poet Emily Dickinson (1830–1886). She said that for many years it was her “only companion.” One biographer wrote, “The dictionary was no mere reference book to her; she read it as a priest his breviary — over and over, page by page, with utter absorption.” Now would be a favorable time for you to get intimate with a comparable mother lode, Aries. I would love to see you find or identify a resource that will continually inspire you for the rest of 2023.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity.” So declared Taurus philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein in his book *Philosophical Investigations*. Luckily for you Tauruses, you have a natural knack for making sure that important things don’t get buried or neglected, no matter how simple and familiar they are. And you’ll be exceptionally skilled at this superpower during the next four weeks. I hope you will be gracious as you wield it to enhance the lives of everyone you care about. All of us non-Bulls will benefit from the nudges you offer as we make our course corrections.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Poet Carolyn Kizer said the main subject of her work

was this: “You cannot meet someone for a moment, or even cast eyes on someone in the street, without changing.” I agree with her. The people we encounter and the influences they exert make it hard to stay fixed in our attitudes and behavior. And the people we know well have even more profound transformative effects. I encourage you to celebrate this truth in the coming weeks. Thrive on it. Be extra hungry for and appreciative of all the prods you get to transcend who you used to be and become who you need to be.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you have any interest in temporarily impersonating a Scorpio, the coming weeks will be a favorable time to play around. Encounters with good, spooky magic will be available. More easily than usual, you could enjoy altered states that tickle your soul with provocative insights. Are you curious about the mysteries of intense, almost obsessive passion? Have you wondered if there might be ways to deal creatively and constructively with your personal darkness? All these perks could be yours — and more. Here’s another exotic pleasure you may want to explore: that halfforbidden zone where dazzling heights overlap with the churning depths. You are hereby invited to tap into the erotic pleasures of spiritual experiments and the spiritual pleasures of erotic experiments.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The circle can and will be complete — if you’re willing to let it find its own way of completing itself. But I’m a bit worried that an outdated part of you may cling to the hope of a perfection that’s neither desirable nor possible. To that outdated part of you, I say this: Trust that the Future You will thrive on the seeming imperfections that arise. Trust that the imperfections will be like the lead that the Future You will alchemically transmute into gold. The completed circle can’t be and shouldn’t be immaculate and flawless.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Shakespeare’s work has been translated from his native English into many languages. But the books of Virgo detective novelist Agatha Christie have been translated far more than the Bard’s (see tinyurl.com/christietranslations). Let’s make Christie your inspirational role model for the next four weeks. In my astrological estimation, you will have an extraordinary capacity to communicate with a wide variety of people. Your ability to serve as a mediator and go-between and translator will be at a peak. Use your superpower wisely and with glee!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran musician Franz Liszt (1811–1886) was a prolific and influential genius who created and

played music with deep feeling. He was also physically attractive and charismatic. When he performed, some people in the audience swooned and sighed loudly as they threw their clothes and jewelry on stage. But there was another side of Liszt. He was a generous and attentive teacher for hundreds of piano students, and always offered his lessons free of charge. He also served as a mentor and benefactor for many renowned composers, including Wagner, Chopin and Berlioz. I propose we make Liszt your inspirational role model for the next 11 months. May he rouse you to express yourself with flair and excellence, even as you shower your blessings on worthy recipients.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): This may risk being controversial, but in the coming weeks, I’m giving you cosmic authorization to engage in what might appear to be cultural appropriation. Blame it on the planets! They are telling me that to expand your mind and heart in just the right ways, you should seek inspiration and teaching from an array of cultures and traditions. So I encourage you to listen to West African music and read Chinese poetry in translation and gaze at the art of Indigenous Australians. Sing Kabbalistic songs and say Lakota prayers and intone Buddhist chants. These are just suggestions. I will leave it to your imagination as you absorb a host of fascinating influences that amaze and delight and educate you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “All the world’s a stage,” Shakespeare wrote, “and all the men and women merely players.” That’s always true, but it will be even more intensely accurate for you in the coming weeks. High-level pretending and performing will be happening. The plot twists may revolve around clandestine machinations and secret agendas. It will be vital for you to listen for what people are NOT saying, as well as the hidden and symbolic meanings behind what they are saying. But beyond all those cautionary reminders, I predict the stories you witness and are part of will often be interesting and fun.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In this horoscope, I offer you wisdom from Capricorn storyteller Michael Meade. It’s a rousing meditation for you in the coming months. Here’s Meade: “The genius inside a person wants activity. It’s connected to the stars; it wants to burn and it wants to create and it has gifts to give. That is the nature of inner genius.” For your homework, Capricorn, write a page of ideas about what your genius consists of. Throughout 2023, I believe you will express your unique talents and blessings and gifts more than you ever have before.
