Can San Antonio's "Gay Dollar" Make Policy Impact?new
Money talks, but does it make a sound if no one is listening? San Antonio LGBT consumers pack enough buying power to bankroll the entire city budget for a year and a half. Yet in many cases here, they’re still fighting for full citizenship in both the workplace and public policy.

Consciously Unconscious: Pianist Matthew Shipp Paws at Improvisationnew
Matthew Shipp’s time in David Ware’s company wasn’t all supplication. The pianist recorded incessantly during the decade, and today counts upwards of thirty dates under his own name. The pace of recording and relentless thought put into Shipp’s work is evident. But practicing to play spontaneously seems like a contradiction—one the pianist quickly clears up.

The DC Crime Ring Eats Its Own — Hollywood Can’t Help Taking Notice

Back to Our Rootsnew
Sometimes, getting away makes you think even more fondly of home. A recent excursion to Nashville left me thinking about the progress I've seen in our city the past few years. It's interesting how sometimes by getting back to our roots, we can move forward.
