There was a time when civilizations depended upon the natural forces to measure time, the sun and the T a b lll e o f C o n t e n t s stars offered guidance and the earth itself would respond with cyclical changes. Time takes on different shapes depending on what we want to do with it and by the time you begin to see it for what it is, you’re out of it because you’re no longer of that time. Editorial page 1 Phil Dante's time ran out on December 11, 2004. He was one of the founders of En Foco and Tahir Hemphill page 2–9 a fine photographer. He apprenticed with W. Eugene Smith, one of the great photojournal- Bonnie Portelance page 10–17 ists who once stated that "intent is more important than content."

Just as Ché continued the fight in Bolivia after the revolution triumphed, Dante brought the question of ethics and equity back to the new generation of image-makers searching for their center.

Gelatin silver print, 16x20” Editor’s Note These are images of inquiry; they have been made by an explorer of vision. As Tahir Hemphill searches along certain paths, he is sensitive to a variety of symbols. Some are more obvious than others, but all are encoded with the same indescribable content to which he is intuitively is drawn to. When we see the images together, we witness an artist’s trail of discovery. Charles Biasiny-Rivera Artist Statement The photographs in this series, Disposable Rituals, comprise a col- lection of life’s rituals. Some are revered and longstanding, while others are profane and temporal. Often they are both disposed of after their usefulness is exhausted. As an imagemaker, I feel it is my duty to communicate a message that grabs the public’s consciousness and fosters a critical self- reflection. I am interested in how the information in each photo will be consumed, embraced and transmitted. Some will bring our own meaning and value to each idea, creating a unique expe- rience. We, in turn, spread each packet of experience to someone else. Tahir Hemphill 2 Nueva Luz Tahir Hemphill Wedding Party, 1998.

Bloomberg, First Deputy Mayor Patricia E. Harris, Buildings Commissioner Robert D. LiMandri, Department of Cultural Affairs Commissioner Kate D. Levin and Public Design Commission Executive Director Jackie Snyder today announced the four winning designs of the urbancanvas Design Competition, a contest to help beautify New York City’s urban landscape with art at construction sites. Supported by the Rockefeller Foundation’s grant to the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City, the competition challenged professional artists and designers to create artwork to be placed on temporary protective structures at construction sites – like mesh screens and fencing – that can be eyesores for New Yorkers. In addition, the Department of Buildings is incorporating its new standard construction information panel as part of this initiative, which provides an architectural rendering of the new building as well as information about the project. The winning designs of the competition, evaluated by a jury and voted on by the public which cast nearly 4,000 votes online, are: “BREATHING_WALL_UC,” by Monika Bravo; “Color Mesh,” by Mauricio Lopez; “My Urban Sky,” by Jen Magathan; and “Green Screen,” by Corinne Ulmann.

    City Council Meeting, August 18, 2020 Public Comments Martha Alvarez From: Kelsey Maloney <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, August 18, 2020 11:58 AM To: City Clerk Subject: [EXTERNAL] public comment on Bruce's Beach CAUTION: This Email is from an EXTERNAL source. Ensure you trust this sender before clicking on any links or attachments. Good afternoon, I am writing to include the following comment in tomorrow’s City Council meeting: My name is Kelsey and I grew up in Manhattan Beach. I speak on behalf of my family and friends when I urge you to be thoughtful about the injustice that took place in Manhattan Beach in the 1920’s and be a leader today to take steps to right the wrongs of the past. The beachfront property on 26th street was unlawfully taken from the Bruce family, simply because they were African American. The city has not been accountable to the Bruce family. This story is not unique to Manhattan Beach, but we can be unique in our response today. We support the three demands of the petition “Bruce’s Beach: Justice for the Bruce family”, which has been signed by more than 12,500 people (or one third of the population of Manhattan Beach). 1. The present plaque needs to be replaced to depict a more accurate history. The plaque should be larger and more visible, preferably on the strand. 2. We demand the city return the land to the Bruce family, and provide restitution for loss of revenue for 95 years and monetary damages for the violation of their civil rights.
