East Boston residents and allies protest for affordability commitments and displacement protections in anticipation of the vote on the redevelopment plan for Suffolk Downs, a former race-track, by the Boston Planning and Development Agency (BPDA).
A march through East Boston drew residents and supporters in a final-hour effort to ensure that the 10,000 housing units on the neighborhood's horizon will help current residents, instead of fueling the trend of luxury development and displacement.
Organizers hope to build public pressure on the BPDA, the developer of the old Suffolk Downs racetrack, HYM Investment Group, and Boston's Mayor Marty Walsh. The march will call for 50% of the planned housing to be affordable for households earning 30% of the Area Median Income. Protesters will also call for protections from displacement for residents of the surrounding East Boston community - a largely low-income, Latin American immigrant population.
The march was led by a new coalition of East Boston area community groups called PUEBLO (People United for East Boston Liberation and Organizing), which includes City Life/Vida Urbana, GreenRoots, Neighbors United For A Better East Boston, MassCOSH, Stand for Democracy, Cosecha Massachusetts, Center for Cooperative Development and Solidarity-CCDS and ZUMIX.

The Carlisle Thundering Herd football team lost Friday's conference game against the Cumberland Valley Eagles, by a score of 33-13. The Herd were without their starting QB, due to a concussion from the previous week of play. The team needs to win the rest of their games, if they hope to become eligible for the playoffs. A couple of backup players stepped up and played hard this game.
The refs made a few questionable calls in favor of CV and that could have changed the momentum of the game in Carlisle's favor. This is Coach Conrad's first year, so I feel the team will get better as the years go by. "ALL IN!"

Our artist's life commitment and dedication to art are immense. It resonates passion, beauty and intensity beyond words. Centred around the concept of creation and the act of creating. Like in religious tradition the one that creates is divine and of divine intention. Strictly focusing on inspiration, symbolism, philosophy, creativity, and imagination.
The double crosses symbolise the void or the abyss.
"If you look long enough into the abyss, the abyss begins to look back through you."
- Friedrich Nietzsche
The abyss is a kind of monster, the monster of complete cynicism and true nihilism - the empty man that post-modernism seems to favour. Pursuing an utter lack of beauty, life values and aesthetics leaves one empty, and perhaps incapable of recovering one's artistic nature. 'Arte Divina' greatly values beauty as an essential virtue of art. The double cross is a symbol that rebels against the apathy and the defeatist culture and post-modernism gave birth to this trend. When I was at University studying art and design we were taught how to deconstruct and to break down values, leaving no room for aesthetics or emotions with no appreciation for beauty.
"In an age of ugliness, a work of beauty is an act of defiance"
- Sir Roger Scruton
