Crooked AF With Brandi Glanville
Straw hut media. Brandy glenville defies labels. We know her for her lack of filter, for her tendency to stir up trouble and for her commitment to telling it like it is, no matter the consequences. For some, reality TV is a guilty pleasure, for others it's a lifestyle. The real housewives media franchise started in Orange County and premiered on Bravo in two thousand and six by the time my guest today made her debut on season two of real housewives of Beverly Hills, five years later, there were already spinoffs in Atlanta, New York, New Jersey and DC. Brandy Glanville is good TV. I'm Leavi Chambers, and this is pride. Since her debut on the real housewives of Beverly Hills in two thousand and eleven, she's been busy. In addition to raising her two boys, Brandy's appeared on tons of other shows, big brother, the apprentice, famously single and my kitchen rules. She wrote to New York Times best selling books, hosts her own podcast, started a youtube channel and released her very own Chardonnay apply name unfiltered blonde. This is Brandy Glenn, but you have a rainbow shirt on, for here we're queer. Let's talk about it. I love that today I sit down with real housewife Brandy Glanville and we have a conversation about her history in reality television and even dive into the history of pride. There are certain stereotypes that come with watching train wreck TV and a lot of the fans that brandy has met over the years are straight women and gay men. Yeah, you know, I don't understand why. I couldn't tell you why, but the most of our fans are at board housewives and women and gay men, and I there's a very few straight men, unless their rives force them to watch a show, that actually know anything about housewives. And I don't have an answer because I feel like I don't want to group everyone in and like make it like, oh, stereotype, all gay men love housewives, because I do have friends that think it's misogynist and horrible and it's not uplifting and they don't watch it. But it does seem like a lot of you know, they're at a huge gay audience and you know, for a big brother as well, which I did not know going in. But come me out, a lot of the fans for housewives were a crossed over. They're like big brothers, like such a gay phenomenon. I had no idea. I don't know why. Do you know why? I mean that's like a big I think a lot of reality shows in general, or like that style of shows, have larger gay audience as particularly, like you said, housewives and big brother. So when you started working in that, let's just say, like industry, where you surprised that there's a lot of game in also working in the that portion of the industry? I don't think that I was surprised. I grew up in a household where my mom had, you know, all of the gay teenagers living at our house that were kicked out of their homes. So I grew up in a very liberal household and it was just normal for me to be around gay men. It was just that was my normal. So I don't think for me it was odd, but once I got into it, I was like, Oh, it's something I definitely started to notice. I mean a lot of the producers, I mean one of the main producers my friend, and he's definitely straight because we made out before I was on house I like a long time ago did not get me the job. It's just putting that out there. Somebody said that, but it's just not true. Um, I don't know. I and for me it's kind of just my normal because that's how I grew up. We grew up in a very tough neighborhood,...
...very tough and where you didn't have a lot of money, and my parents were hippies kind of, and you know, my dad sold pot. We grew pop before it was legal. I sold pot at my high school. We were just progressive, I guess you could say. And my mom, I was in dance and gymnastics and I think because of that, like all my coaches were gay and it just my mom had the like she just helped everyone. My Mom, my best friend Kim, her brother Joseph was gay and his parents kicked him out of the House and so my mom moved him in and all of a sudden we had like four gay men living with us because they weren't accepted by their parents, and it made I feel like it made me who I am a little bit today, because my kids are like like that's just that they have gay friends at school. I think that's great because back in the day we no one could say they were gay because God forbid that you would get beaten up in our neighborhood. It was it was scary. While growing up, brandy spent her time in dance, gymnastics and later modeling. She says that one of her gymnastics coaches, Clark Jennings, helped her find the confidence to be herself. He always told me that. He's like, you're a star, you have to just be you. So for my gymnastics routine, like on the floor, I decided I wanted Elton John's funeral for a friend and flight of the bump will be. I wanted to like I wanted to show that it was hyper, hyper, and then also like that, like there's two sides to me, because I don't identify as a straight woman. I've had relationships with women and it's I don't even identify. I don't know. I hate putting label on it, like there's so many labels out there and I don't want to be a label. I'm just me. So it sounds like you just came out as not straight. I've come out. I've said it a million times. I have. I'm not straight. I'm crooked as fuck. Drama is the fuel that drives everything in reality TV. Fans of shows like real housewives love drama, even if they don't want to get personally involved. Well, there's definitely a level of like fabulousness to the housewives, to all of all of them. Well, I mean I feel like in a way some of the shows are getting a little bit toxic, a little bit to listen, I don't want to ruin lives, I just I want to watch people get in fighting through a wine like. I don't want to say someone's, you know, got issues here and there. I mean, don't get me wrong, I have done that when I was under attack and I was lashing out and saying something back during my first season, and I have regrets about that. But now I just feel like, let's not go so deep. I mean, we don't need to ruin lives here. It's a it's a show that is train wreck TV, but there's children and stuff involved that here, all of these things and it's just not okay. Right. So then there's like a level where it's like the wine thing and that's enough. You don't have a good yes, I mean I feel like so Yolanda foster and I, while she's putty it's are not buster anywhere. We had this thing we called the vault and we knew things about other house eyes that we would never say. We promised to never talk about it and it was only brought up one time by Yolanda to Kryle and she's like, you know, I have a lot of things in the vault, and her and I we had like we had life ruining shit that we knew that we would never say, and that's ultimately possibly why we weren't asked back. It's just not enough drama. I mean, I feel like there's enough drama. I'm not going to ruin your life, you know, I'm not here to do that. I would never be able to live with myself. So you know, there is there are people that you know won't go that far, and then there are people that just are toxic,...
...which is a shame, right, because you're these women who are powerful and very, you know, privileged in that way and you have a lot of influence. Right, we're supposed to bring each other up. I mean, yes, there's always drama with girls. I fight with my girlfriends all the time and but like we fight, but that's a relationship and we make up. You know, that's what you're supposed to do, because I care about them. And watching the shows like it's hard because I don't know that there are genuine relationships. So there aren't consequences and people just go low because they're just selfinvolved. No give a fuck about anywhere else, right, but you have I all in it. You're just like I'm not going. Oh No, I'm not, like I've been there, you know, I did that once and I'm I don't want to do it anymore. I think that's a good place to be, though, when you just realize like it's not worth it. No, I have kids now that that that are I mean I've always had kids, obviously for sixteen years, but Um, now it would affect them like it is affecting, let's say, Kelly Dodd's daughter. It would hurt them, you know, and they're at school and they could be teased about certain things and that's just not something I'm willing to do to my children, or to like anyone's, anyone know, anyone. Yeah, right, are not. I'm not here to ruin your marriage, I'm not here to say horrible things about you. That get back to your kids and get them, you know, embarrassed by you. You know you want your kids to love you and be excited that you're their mom. Yeah, I don't know, it's just it's a I think it's a balancing act that a lot of people can do and there are some people that just can't. When we were getting ready to talk, Brandy told me about one of her best friends, Mia, MIA lives in Florida and recently came out as transgender. I met MIA through a girlfriend and he was married. She was married at the time for thirteen years to a horrible person, and we just fell in love. That's a truth. We were we it's like it was like magic. I can't explain it. I had an instant best friend and I trusted her and everything and she she took care of me emotionally and I went off to do celebrity apprentice with our president and she knew get into that and, yeah, she knew that. I was scared to death because I didn't think of myself as that businessminded person and I was just doubting myself and she was like, I'm going with you, and I think she was also escaping the fact that her husband at the time was cheating on her with everyone and we just, I think it's been like eight years now, we're just we are in love, like she is my Sol mate in a weird way. But unfortunately for her, she lives in a conservative town in Florida. It's Delray beach and it's a lot of older people and you know, she realized while she was living with me in La that she always knew she when she was a woman and a man's body. So she decided one day to tell me and then I told the kids and we're like yeah, let's have a party. But now, you know, she's back in Florida and the struggle is that she can't be her true self, she can't go out with you know, her makeup and all of the things that she wants to do because of the judgment there. And also, you know, she wants to get some plastic surgery, like FEM FEM and what do you call it, like a facial feminization, exactly that kind of thing, which is super expensive and she can't afford it. and any doctors out there that want to help help you know, I feel like it's important if you look in the mirror and you don't see who you think you you should see, and I wish she could be here in La with me, but you know, she's got obligations there and she has a Sala on there and I just feel like it's hard for...
...her kind of hiding, not being able to be authentic. Back in two thousand and fifteen, when Brandy was on the celebrity apprentice, she took mea with her. She is an amazing hair stylist. Okay, yeah, so did a lot of your work when you're on camera. Are those sorts of things? She it for the apprentice. She did. I got her hired because she was just there with me and I'm like, you know, what can I you know everyone else had hair and makeup that they hired. I never I don't really ask for things. I would. I wish I would, but I did ask if she could get paid to do that, and so she was with me, like with me on set that whole time, which is if I didn't have her, I had like my first panic attack during that time and if I didn't have her, I would I don't know what. It's horrible. Remember who used to host that show back before he infiltrated the White House. Um, as far as so, as far as Mr Trump goes, we he was. We didn't have any like horrible interaction on wors, like was he horrible? He wasn't horrible and I wish I could say that he was kind of the one thing he did say to me, which is off, I thought a little inappropriate, is that I should never wear read the stick, which I am wearing today. So you can suck it, not you D T. So I that's the only every other interaction that I had with him was fine and I used it was off camera, but when the cameras came on and he definitely turned into a different person and I feel like that's kind of who we're seeing at these rallies and, you know, at these debates, is a version of himself which is he's turned on, you know, not like sexually, but well, maybe maybe he does get off that, I don't know, but I don't know that that's his true authentics off. I don't know that he knows who that is, but my experiences he was kind off camera and then on camera he turned to someone else. But I mean I've Yun's like what was it horrible? It just wasn't. You know just was it was. It was just fine and Ivanka is lovely. The kids were Nice. I mean, I'm not going to love it that time they worked kids. They were younger, they were they were in the boardroom with them, they were still I mean they were married. Okay, yeah, so they weren't actually kids. It wasn't that long ago when they were just lovely, inarticulate and everything. You would think you would want your how you want your kids to act. Yes, do I no more about them now that I don't agree with? Of course I do, but just my personal experience wasn't right, think, but you had me on their time, I did. If I didn't have me, I I don't know what I would have done. It was yeah, it was a very it was probably the hardest show that I've ever done. Really, yes, even with all the wine in the face, and I author wine anytime. Girl. I know. It's because, like there's this pressure to ask all of these people that in your life for money and you have to ask them like right now and that you need it right now. So I'm cold calling all of my friends going can you give me five grand? Can You? I mean it's the most uncomfortable thing ever, I don't ask anyone for anything ever. So then to ask them and, by the way, can you wire it right now? The second yes, the second. So it was very stressful and if you didn't get enough money in, you were called out, you know on TV, and you were like Oh, the leat you got the least amount of money in, and it was just so stressful. So when the money comes in, I don't actually remember how celebrity apprentice worked. When the money what would happen? So like, this is shady ass. Okay, this is what I think. So well, I know this. So so don't think. No. So, so, whoever wins at the end, like the end of like you're you know, there's different teams at the end of the challenge. You know you have to get all of your money in it. It goes into this trust, the safe, which obviously is getting interest, like it's sitting there for a long...
...time and there's a lot of interest because it's not going straight to charity. It's going into a bank account and then once the person wins, then they'll figure out to get it to charity. But they're let me, we writ I alone on one I rest over two hundred fiftyzero and like that sit ins the one person. There's like twenty of us. So there's a lot of millions of dollars sitting making money until the end of this show. And I'm like, I actually asked them in the producers I got. I want to know where the interest from all this money goes. Do you guys give it to charity? And it was like she's she shook her head and started laugh and she's like Brandy downt and so I'm curious. Where's it go? I would like to know. And how much did they make? And I mean I guess they have to pay for the show. Sonhow I mean it just seems like, yeah, it seems a little weird for me. It was, I don't know, it was just a whole bizarre thing that everywhere and I feel like everyone was thinking it. No one would say it at first. I'm the a hole that would say it and it was like, and now I'm saying it again. Just curious, really, I really am, because they hold on to that money until like the end of the show when somebody wins, and if it's two million dollars, it's some serious interest. Yes, you're talking about at least I had, but if you're one percent's out, a hundred hundred, a hundred thousand will have to do them. Yeah, I'm blondish, so it's not I'm pretty good atmouth. But now, when we come back, we will give brandy a crash course on the history of the lgbtq plus movement here in the United States. Welcome back to my conversation with Brandy Glanville, New York Times best selling author and reality television personality. Brandy is a big supporter of love, though you would never know based on her reputation, and doesn't understand why we all can't just love whomever we want. While talking, I was surprised to find out she wasn't familiar with the history of the lgbtq rights movement. When we talk about the movement here in the US, we usually start in one thousand nine hundred and sixty nine, with the stone wall riots in New York City. At the time, not only was homosexuality illegal, you could also be arrested for wearing gender nonconforming clothing. If you were a man, you could be arrested for dressing in drag. Women could face the same penalty for not dressing feminine enough. People from the time refer to these laws as the three article rule, meaning police could arrest you if you weren't wearing at least three articles of clothing that reflected your legally assigned gender. So called masquerade laws came about in the mid nineteen century and made their way across the country for the next one hundred years, the last one being signed into law in one thousand nine hundred and sixty six in San Diego. Laws like these gave the police free reign to harass queer people on the street, and that harassment had gone on and on for far too long. I feel like it goes on a little bit still today. It depends. I think La is progressive. I think in other states they still have a lot of issues. Definitely to worker. Yeah, and they sometimes they're working forward and sometimes they're going back and then and sometimes they're going forward and going back at sad change us for yeah, three steps, facts exactly. It's difficult that yes, in the early morning hours of June twenty eight, one thousand nine hundred and sixty nine, police rated the stonewall in in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, while two hundred patrons were inside raids on establishments that served lgbtq plus people like this were commonplace at the time. People were physically checked by police officers before being arrested for cross dressing, but this night things went differently, as the police beat a queer woman with a baton and dragged her to a police fan. A crowd gathered and mayhem broke out. The riots lasted for days and acted as a catalyst for organizing the LGBTQ community in the years to come. Well, this is very I write. I'm learning a lot. Five months after stonewall, activist proposed a march to be held the last week in June every year, with no restrictions on dress or age, to commemorate the riots. One of the committee members, Craig shoonmaker, suggested pride as the name for the movement. So he did.
...shootmaker did an interview, I want to say it was in like mm two thousand and fifteen, where he said people did not have power then. Even now we only have some, which really leads into what you were just saying. Right, we have a long way to go. But he added, but anyone can have pride in themselves and that would make them happier. As people and produce the movement likely to produce change, which is a really great, great quote, because what it means is anyone can take pride in themselves and create change, as they should. But I feel like, unfortunately, there are conservative people around, like with me at like we talked about she she's frightened to live her trueself right and be prideful for who she really is. Yeah, and so, and it's you know, it's not that she's not a shame, she just it's hard because the people around her are so conservative. Right. So, I mean it's like, yes, it's easy to say have pride, you know, but it's hard to do. But don't get punched. No, God, no, right, like have God, just don't get beat up. Oh, no, God, no, like. I hope for my kids, and I know for my kids, like they are so used to me being, you know, dress as a woman in a wig and sometimes she's not, and they have friends that are gay at school and that's the world that I kind of grew up in. But I also grew up in my friend Joseph getting beaten up because he was gay with like a baseball bat, not just beaten up, like punched, out like he was. It was horrible, and so I feel like we are, we're getting there, like, you know, my kids are, you know, you're at school, and everyone can say we're getting there. We have a long ways to go, though. Yeah, no, I agree, as sad as that is right, you feel like it was Maryor's marriage. Quality was only a few years ago and that felt like yes, this is it right, and then it's like oh no, no, go backtly. And you know what, as long as we're forging for as long as we're trying to get there, and I think the conversation is you know, it's definitely making the rounds. People were talking about it now. We weren't talking about it then because you couldn't, because then you would be shamed. Yeah, and you know, I can have those conversations with my kids and and thank God, I'm just I'm so happy that I'm raising children in this time where it is we you can say whatever you want. I'm like, you know, and you know, when they were a little like, I don't know, from Gara Straight, I'm like, cool, I don't know either, but that was that whole conversations twelve and sixteen. Now, okay, yeah, up and so it's you know, those are conversations we had went like from Gosh, they were like for you know, just because I, you know, I after my split, I really only had gay men around me because they were like they're my best friends and they became a kind of like father figures as to my kids on my time. So, you know, it's just not it's just their norm and I feel like I feel blessed for that. I just wish that would happen all over in one thousand nine hundred and sixty six. Two years before the stonewall riots, a guy named Steve Ginsberg founded a radical gay rights political organization right here in Los Angeles. He called the group pride, an acronym that stood for personal rights in defense and education. Later that same year, during a New Year's party at the black cat tavern in silver lake, undercover police snuck into the bar and started beating and arresting patrons for kissing as they rang in the new year. The Pride Organization responded to that incident with the publication of a pamphlet, also called pride. The pride pamphlet later became the advocate. I've learned a lot, like I, you did and I'm not going to be that person who comes like I know everything on this and this and this. I I didn't know a lot about that, about done Straw, and yeah, I know it's true and I don't think I would have just looked it up by myself just because my life was just like we're all gay. It's great. So I feel like it is important too. I'm you know, I'm getting...
...share that with my kids. Amazing. Well, yeah, listen to this episode. They can get well, yeah, Oh, I'm gonna be like, let's segment out this little piece for you to listen to. They know I've had relationship with them and it's we've talked about it. So it's not that I feel like I don't know. I you, just I feel like it just keep them young and sweetly as possible away for me. No, I'm already crupting them as it is. I don't know. I feel like I don't know that. They like they haven't read the book, and we did book. Yeah, because we talked about their dad and like I don't just like thank you. Yeah, I just don't think it's I don't talk about any of that with them. Yeah, well, they're sixteen and twelve. Oh yeah, we they know what happened. Sure, they don't need to. I don't need to go into detail. They're very aware of what happened. So we've had discussions, but I don't need to talk about the Chardonay and the this and that. That right, they don't need the list for the closet with the wine. NOPE, yeah, I liked it in there. Just talk about the sunglasses and the allergies. Oh my gosh, for sure. Remember when mom had allergies all the time, for later in the day, at all times, even at night in the house. She didn't leave her room too. Allergies were that bad. Yeah, it was like cotton from her best friend. So thank you very much for joining us today. Thank you for having me. This is so fun. And where can everyone follow you?

Matthew raises Colindale cladding concerns in Parliament
Wednesday, 12 February, 2020
Matthew has raised the concerns of his constituents in Colindale in a Westminster Hall debate on leaseholders and cladding led by Hilary Benn.
Speaking during the debate, Matthew said: "I have 1,087 developments in the Pulse development in Colindale. A lot of people bought those properties after the building regulations were signed off by the local authority, as recently as 2017. Those people have not been protected by building regulations and now, as the right hon. Member says, simply cannot afford to either remortgage or sell their property. They are in redundant properties. The concern is that the assurances from building regulations were simply not worth the paper on which they were printed."
Intervening on the Housing Minister, Matthew raised the issue of Help to Buy, saying: "Some of my constituents purchased properties under Help to Buy, so the Government certainly have a claim in this. How much of that responsibility will fall on the Treasury?"
Matthew intends to take this up further with the Housing Minister.
Matthew welcomes Government action to restrict future ground rents to zero
Matthew has welcomed the Government's announcement that action will now be taken to reform English property law, through the introduction of the Commonhold tenure.

Син (от акадски език: Сън, Суен; на шумерски:Нанна) е шумерски бог в месопотамската митология. Той е лунният бог и син на божествата Енлил и Нинлил. Неговият свещен град е Ур. Името Нанна е с шумерски произход и означава "осветителят."

История
Главното светилище на Нанна в град Ур се е наричало E-гиш-шир-гал ("дом на голямата /великата/ светлина"). Син, впоследствие идентифициран с Нанна, имал светилище край Харан (Харран) наречено E-кхул-кхул ("дом на радостите"). На печати той е изобразяван като старец с падаща брада и със символ полумесецът. В астрално-теологичната система е представян от числото 30 и от Луната. Това число вероятно се отнася до средния брой дни в един лунен месец (точният брой всъщност е ≈29,53 дни), премерен между две последователни новолуния.

Лунният бог е персонификация на мъдростта, отнасяща се до постиженията на древните учени астрономи, за които наблюденията на фазите на Луната са били важен фактор в развитие на математическите и умения. Тенденцията за централизиране на вселенската власт е довела до установяване на доктрината за троицата, състояща се от Син, Шамаш и Ищар, съответно олицетворяващи Луната, Слънцето и планетата Венера (зорница/вечерница).

Наричан Син във Вавилон и Асирия и почитан в Харан, той носел брада, направена от лапис лазули и яздел крилат бик. Негова съпруга била Нингал ("Великата Дама"), която му родила син – Уту ("Слънце") и дъщеря – Инанна (Инанна се смята да е шумерското име на богинята Ищар). Други символи освен полумесеца са крилатият бик (идва от името на баща му, Енлил, "Небесният бик") и триножникът, който вероятно е статив за лампа.

Важен шумерски текст ("Енлил и Нинлил") разказва за слизането на Енлил и Нинлил (бременна с Нанна/Суен) в подземния свят/ада. Там се показват три "замествания", за да се позволи на Нанна/Суен да излезе на бял свят. Историята има сходство с друг текст, известен под името "Слизането на Инанна".

Култови средища
Двете основни средища на почитанието към Син са били Ур на юг и Харан на север. Култът се е разпрострял и до други центрове; храмове на лунния бог се намират във всички големи градове на Вавилон и Асирия.

Често е определян като Ен-зу или "господар на мъдростта." През периода от около 2600-2400 пр.н.е.), когато градът държава Ур е управлявал по-голямата част от долината на река Ефрат Син е представлявал глава на пантеона на месопотамските божества. От този период датират епитетите "баща на боговете", "главен бог", "творец на всичко" и други подобни.

2021 Residency Program for New York State Artists & Writers
Organization: Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts
Award Info: $200 - $750 stipend
Type: Residency
Eligibility: State
Categories: Photography, Drawing, Film/Video/New Media, Mixed-Media/Multi-Discipline, Painting, Sculpture
Located outside Ithaca, NY, the Saltonstall Foundation awards free residencies to artists and writers who are residents of New York State and Indian Nations therein. We support artists and writers working in the following disciplines:
Fiction & Creative Nonfiction
Photography & Filmmaking
Painting | Sculpture | Visual Arts
NEW in 2021: Accessible space for an artist or writer! We are currently building an accessible addition. It includes a private accessible living space with a roll-in shower, a private accessible studio (for a visual artist or writer), a shared accessible kitchen and dining area, accessible laundry facilities, and an adjoining private suite for a personal care assistant if needed.
COVID, the unwanted guest
We're under no illusions: The coronavirus will be with us — in some way — through next summer. That said, we're planning a 2021 residency season because we believe we can offer a safe residency experience in a way that is responsible and responsive to the needs of artists and writers while protecting their health and that of our staff and local community.
To all applicants: we will very likely have covid-related protocols in place for the residency season. These may include (but won't be limited to) a covid-test requirement and some degree of travel restriction before you arrive at Saltonstall. Please be aware of what we may ask of you if accepted for a residency. We take this pandemic, your health, and the health of our community seriously.
A Saltonstall residency is a small community. We strive to provide a quiet, inviting, respectful, and nurturing community for creative individuals looking for uninterrupted time to focus on their craft.
There are just five individuals in residence at a time: one poet, one fiction or creative nonfiction writer, one photographer or filmmaker, and two visual artists. Each group of five arrives and departs at the same time.
We believe in and value a diverse community of creative individuals. To that end, we hope that all artists and writers feel welcome to apply for a residency, regardless of one's level of education, experience, race, age, sex, religious belief, marital status, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or national origin.
There is no cost to attend Saltonstall and no application fee associated with this application. Additionally, to help offset travel to Ithaca and other personal expenses, we have increased our stipends to $750 for each month-long Fellow, $375 for each two-week Fellow, and $200 for each artist/writer attending the six-night residency for parents.
All applicants must be at least twenty-one (21) years of age and must be residents of New York State or Indian Nations therein ** (all counties). Residencies are for individual artists and writers. We are unable to accommodate groups or pairs of people working together. It is expected that those selected for a residency live at Saltonstall for the duration of the residency period.
Dates for our 2021 residencies are as follows
Our second annual six-night residency for artist/writer parents:
Thursday, June 3 – Wednesday, June 9
Please note: this residency is strictly for artist/writer parents who have at least one dependent child (under 18) at home.
Our four-week residencies:
Monday, June 14 - Monday, July 12
Monday, July 19 - Monday, August 16
Monday, August 23 - Monday, September 20
Our two-week residencies:
Monday, September 27 - Monday, October 11
Saturday, October 16 - Saturday, October 30
Applicants may apply for either our pilot 6-night residency for parents or the month-long residency or a two-week residency (not a combination). For those applying for the longer residencies, you will be given an opportunity to rank your choice of dates within the application.
All applicants (including those applying for the six-night residency for parents) may apply in more than one artistic or literary category, however a complete and separate application for each category is required.
Past Saltonstall Fellows (residency alumni) are welcome to apply. Work samples must be different than the work for which an alum was previously awarded the residency.
APPLICATION DEADLINE: 11:59 pm on Saturday, January 23, 2021
- We convene a different jury for each discipline. Jurors serve anonymously and change each year.
- Your application is considered solely on the merit of your work sample and your artist's and writer's statement.
- Your work and statement are presented anonymously to the jury, and it is the only part of your application that they see.
- All applicants are notified on or before April 2, 2021.

President Donald Trump has a notoriously hard time getting people to actually stick by him. This week during a talk at Duke University, his now former chief of staff John Kelly discussed his time in the White House, offering mixed reviews — to say the least. He specifically broke with the president — both on his claims that undocumented immigrants pose a special criminal threat to the United States and that the country needs a full southern border wall to address that immigration.
In line with his rhetoric, he recently signed a national emergency declaration in an attempt to use subsequent executive power to redirect large amounts of already appropriated government funds towards constructing his long-sought border wall blocking off Mexico. Confronted with the facts available via his own administration indicating that there are no especially high crime rates associated with undocumented immigrants, Trump claimed there to be vast unreported criminal networks among the immigrants with no basis other than singling out people who aren't white.
Kelly has at least somewhat countered the president on these points before, although while in his now former position in the White House he mostly stayed in line and is certainly a conservative overall.
Still, early last year, Kelly claimed during an appearance on Fox News that Trump's stance on the border wall had "evolved" — which Trump exploded in rage over, completely rejecting Kelly's attempt to make his boss's stance line up more closely to the reality of the situation.
More recently, just days before he left the White House, the Los Angeles Times published remarks from the retired General in which he explicitly acknowledged that the border barriers making the most headway quite frankly are "not a wall." Indicating perhaps just how low the president has dragged American political rhetoric as debate over his effort to block off Mexico has raged on, we've had to confront the fact that Trump has pointed to projects reinforcing already in-place steel slats and the like as the beginning of his grand and glorious wall — despite the fact that well, it's not a wall.
Trump can't even get basic definitions right, and we're supposed to trust him to lead the United States why again?
Kelly — who again, is no Democrat! — said this week that his time in the administration was the "least enjoyable" job he ever had, and credited the time he did stick around to a sense of civic duty.
Knowing how closely the president monitors his public image, it would be in perfect Trump-ian form for him to take time off from his busy schedule of failed love-fests with foreign dictators and angrily tweeting about his opponents to whine about Kelly in some context.


You've carefully crafted your to-do list and feel a sense of relief now that it's all jotted down in one document, instead of a hectic jumble of responsibilities and errands in your head. It's a great and promising start.
And while most of us will get thrills from checking each item off the lengthy task list, there will be some jobs - be it writing a particularly difficult email to a dissatisfied client or starting a complicated PowerPoint - we just dread to do.
For those tough tasks we need to give ourselves a little extra motivation. According to an excerpt from the Harvard Business Review's Guide to Getting the Right Work Done setting up a compelling reward system can help you accomplish your to-dos.
The book highlights four different types of tasks that induce boredom, anxiety and procrastination in most people and the methods you can use to help you power through them.
From recharging your brain to incorporating fun into tedious tasks, we round-up the handy list of tips below.
Quick activities that regenerate your body and brain will give you more energy to tackle your next task or project. Try these mid-morning, mid-afternoon, or mid-project to help maintain your momentum.
Even if you love your job, there will be some tasks you hate to undertake, be it filing your expenses or attend yet another pointless meeting. The key is to find a way to make those moments enjoyable.
Some tasks are so odious, boring and unfortunately frequent that even the prospect of a bag of popcorn can't help you face them. These tasks call for a concurrent reward: something you do while working so that you can bear to plow through your unread emails or complete your quarterly budget report.
This type of reward works especially well for tasks that are not concentration-intensive.
For especially challenging or large projects HBR recommends creating a special-purpose account to pay into every time you complete. Set different price values depending on the size and unpleasantness of the task.


This vintage Art Deco style ring features a large round brilliant gem accented with an octagon-shaped halo and antique pattern shank with small round brilliants and milgrain detail. Create custom gemstone rings with this design by selecting the gems and metals of your choice.
When my wife told me she wanted an art deco ring as a push present, I wasn't sure what that was. Most of the sites I found only sold diamonds and she didn't want that. Finally I found Azeera and they had so many ring to choose from. I didn't want to make the decision myself so I solicited customer service for help and they were more than willing to provide assistance. They recommend a round cut amethyst and thought the devalaya ring best complimented the stone. I went for that option and my wife loved it! Thanks again to customer service!
Every good deed deserves another. When a company takes the time to business right, they deserve our business. The owners of Azeera have a wonderful story and their intentions to do business seem honorable. I got a sapphire art deco devalaya ring from them to show my support.
I think I've been converted to a gem lover. Color gemstone blow diamonds out of the water and especially high quality ones. I'm so used to seeing dull gemstones, but the quality of azeera blew me away. Love my garent art deco ring.
