Blackfoot Community Review moves to Phase 2
BLACKFOOT, Idaho (KIFI) - The City of Blackfoot wants your help to improve.
The city has moved to Phase 2 of its community-wide review. Blackfoot underwent Phase 1 back in May 2019.
Participants in Phase 1 identified three key community priorities going forward: the need for housing, recreation opportunities and city identity. The beauty of this is we don t know where it ll go, Mayor Marc Carroll said. We want the community input, and they may have way better ideas than we could dream up within city staff. And that s the main thing we want to accomplish.
A town hall meeting is scheduled on Thursday via zoom and in-person at the Blackfoot Senior Center from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Penny Rimbaud of Crass and Marc Carroll have released a new recording. It s called
Love Is All Or Love Is Not At All and it s a stand alone digital single. Rimbaud did the lyrics and vocals and Carroll handled the music. Rimbaud stated: LOVE IS NOT JUST FOR VALENTINE’S. In our current isolation, enforced or otherwise, we are alone yet at the same time together in a common global malaise. Could we but realise it, it is precisely that togetherness which is the true form of love. Any presumption beyond this is a dangerous folly. Love exists way beyond any of our temporal and specific ideas of love. The greatest act of love is simply in its being. Love is not a token gesture, not a seduction technique, not a personalised expression of sloppy sentimentality. Unconditional by nature, love is all or love is not at all; no before, no after, no now. Only love, and therein the great conflagration. Let the flames of rise eternal. Happy Valentine’s. Penny Rimbaud, 2021

Michael J. Bobbitt, the first Black artistic director at Watertownâs New Repertory Theatre, where he established himself as a dynamic force brimming with ideas after his arrival less than 17 months ago, was named Friday as executive director of the Mass Cultural Council.
That makes Bobbitt the highest-ranking cultural official in Massachusetts at a time when arts organizations from Boston to the Berkshires are fighting for their lives, their finances decimated by the coronavirus pandemic, while they are also trying to dismantle institutional structures rooted in systemic racism.
