By Amy Lee “Like an ocean and moon on the inside at the same time,
we orbit and are orbited by.” Jess L Parker's debut poetry collection, star things, is an ethereal and exquisite tribute to all things celestial, cosmic and calamity of the heart. These 69 pages microscope into the soul and the universe, often with a surprising twist and heartfelt kick at the end of the poem. Through lyrical pace, experimental formats, contemporary chic and beautiful metaphors, she delves into every love, every bruise and everyday life. The depiction of abandonment is most powerful in poems such as Moonless (“Leave it on the island were you left me…”) and Dream Life (“If two people could sneak a dream to meet, they were we.”).

Jeff Seal promoting rent control in New York City
When actor and comedian Jeff Seal said he evicted tenants for fun at a Manhattan landlords' convention in 2018, he got mention on the convention’s company website. When asked about his undercover acting, the actor and filmmaker told Quail Bell Magazine, “No one said, ‘Oh, geez, that's unethical.' Instead it was, ‘Oh great. We'd love to do business with you.’” In collaboration with co-producers Nick and Chris Libbey, filmmaker and New Yorker Jeff Seal released his latest three-episode mini docuseries, New York's Worst Landlords, on YouTube April 8th. The film catalogs comedian Jeff Seal’s attempts to interview landlords on New York City Public Advocate Jumaane D. Williams’ annual Worst Landlord Watchlist, which organizes the top repeat landlord offenders. Seal attempts to contact landlords by phone, impromptu interview, email, and eventually undercover acting. The result is a (free to watch!) chronicle of one man's efforts to get answers from New York City landlords getting away with neglectful and exploitative strategies for hundreds of properties.

My mother loved Christmas.
She found joy in window displays and red sweaters of Rudolph with blinking battery noses and forgot about what had happened the rest of the year. The Breadcrumbs widget will appear here on the published site.

In response to recent hate crimes and acts of violence against Asian Americans, one of the best ways to cope with the collective trauma being experienced by so many Americans is to create art. The Art of Our Century Gallery in New York, New York, is doing just that. “Illuminated Landscapes” opened May 6, 2021 and is in partnership with Ankhlave Arts Alliance as a charitable event to stop AAPI hate. The show features five Asian American artists, Arthur Kwon Lee, Kayo Shido, Akemi Takeda, Lisa Kawazoe, and Xiao Wang.
