    Jeff River Law – A Time Journey through the Houston Heights: 2010 I have come full circle… I’m leaving the Heights after 30 years of driving “Home” to her…Even openings at October Gallery (my 4th business) ranged from drag queens to fashion shows, queen of Egypt pulled by a chariot, to bodybuilders and retirees at Human Body Show. We had lutes and flutes, harps and troupe players, fertilizing Angel or Altar shows, handmade ornaments, soaps, candles and clothing by locals to fine art and sculpture…imports from Bali and Czechoslovakia, India and Bolivia…My last creation here, my 12 th actual rehab, was Indian Summer Lodge, a formerly condemned barren property and buildings where the homeless built fires on cold nights in what is now my Aspen like living room, Playboy did tropical shoots here. TV and magazines have featured it. It is Bali meets Austin meets Santa Fe, all nesting nicely in the only hood it could survive…I thank the 1,000 artists and ½ million customers, including those who hired KaBloom Landscaping the past 5 years. I thank fabulous staffs, especially Shannon and Nancy, who understood that everyone through our doors are my Heights guests…I miss you all.

Haight May 2016 ABSTRACT This study combines the methodologies of political and grassroots social history to explain the unique set of conditions that led to the passage of the James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Act in Texas. In 2001, the socially conservative Texas Legislature passed and equally conservative Republican Governor Rick Perry signed the James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Act, which added race, color, religion, national origin, and “sexual preference” as protected categories under state hate crime law. While it appeared that this law was in direct response to the nationally and internationally high-profile hate killing of James Byrd, Jr.

Still her mother brought her halfway around the world to UC Davis, where four years of treatments and surgeries took their toll on her body and her childhood, but ultimately reversed the disease. Azadeh might have turned away from her grueling past. Instead she chose to embrace it. Today, as a volunteer for support programs at UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, she helps other young people facing similar cancer challenges. Here, she offers others not only access to practical resources, but also something more profound: a survivor’s understanding and empathy.
