for our cultural centers, which is our city-owned cultural centers, we added $500,000 out of that $6.6 million. so we would have additional resources for the programming and care of the cultural centers. and then i think what is really important and raised before is we have emerging needs and other needs to meet across the entirety of the city. it allocates a new $2.5 million bucket of funds for arts and culture purposes and it would direct the arts commission in partnership with the arts and stake holders to develop a five-year allocation plan. it would allow us to meet the needs and districts not receiving as much arts funding currently it look at emerging transit corridors like clement street or other areas of the city where we are not seeing as much arts investment. and this new baseline would be $2.5 million. we would be looking every five years to renew that cultural services allocation plan and we look to dcyf as a model to define that need. i'm here today to answer any other questions you might have. we appreciate supervisors peskin and tang for this introduction and to everybo

the new mexico department of cultural affairs is one of the most robust and comprehensive state cultural agencies in the nation. we're very, very proud of the long standing investment that the people of new mexico have in our arts and culture industry and in the assets that the state is so proud of. we have eight museums, eight historic sites, covering a range of interests from the earliest native american sites to the history of billy the kid, georgia o'keefe, groundbreaking pale paleontological museums covering everything from local artist and art to globaling fine arts. as you can see, summer is the season for art in new mexico, including performance art. 90,000 people attend the santa fe opera season and the world-renowned venue that is really like no other. the economic impact of our opera generates more than 200 million annually for our region. and during its season employs 700 people. nearly any town you visit has its own story of life in the wild old west. and in getting there is an exception -- i mean an experience in and of itself. this is especially true of the many ghost town

secretary of cultural affairs, i can attest to the fact that new mexico is rich in arts and cultural assets. these assets constitute a dq -- and we are very the amount of artists, artists and creative -- creators, performance, and writers we have here. the commission began a study that has, the biggest that has been done looking at how arts and culture can contribute to our state's economy and we found very conservatively looking at this industry that we are saying about a $5.6 billion impact to our state and support for 80,000 equals oneide which out of 10 jobs in our state. it is more it economic impact than the construction and manufacturing industries combined. dr. jeffreyg to mitchell who conducted the study out of the university of new mexico, arts and culture can no longer be seen as a reward for arts andy, rather, culture have become a prerequisite for economic growth and success. in new mexico, we have found that partnerships and collaborations are the key to success as a creative economy. recently, we have developed many initiatives as a response to the new mexicohelped div

my view is that we religious and cultural conservatives are at the dunkirk moment in the culture war. we have been surrounded, and we've got to figure what to do. if we attack head-on, we will probably get massacred. if we sit there hoping that things are going to turn out well for us, we're going to get, we will be conquered. if we instead get on this little flotilla and get across to metaphorical england where we can rebuild ourselves spiritually and morally and train with a long battles ahead, and i think we might have a chance. "the benedict option" in that sense is about going to a place withdrawing from the heat of battle so we can train and figure out who we are and whose we are and what we're supposed to do so we can continue the battle into the many generations to come. so in turn that i make these basic claims. first, the west has become effectively post-christian. by that i mean that christianity is no longer the core story by which people of the west understand themselves. second, the practice of the christian religion has reached a state of the terminal decline in the wes

prevalent in settler cultures.ry vividly in parts of the states, parts of southern africa, parts of australia. you know, a little bit of it isjust an historical legacy of the settler ethos, which is to come, claim, invade, dig in, consolidate and defend. so it's a closed fist and a closed heart, a closed mind. they all seem to go together. so there's a little bit of that. and the idea that you'd valorise someone who was tough, strong, silent... and also the sense that boys, as they grow up, you know, as they leave childhood and go into adolescence, puberty, they're encouraged to sort of close down their own emotional side, their empathetic side. and that's a tragedy. i mean, because it's notjust miserable for women, and makes women feel unsafe, and girls feel unsafe, and disrespected, it's bad for boys and men because they live impoverished lives. they have such diminished access to language to express strong feelings. i mean, we all have strong feelings. somehow, when you're a boy, they take away your licence to e

the culture war was never really a culture war. now, we can. i am very interested in fostering more of that. because the right needs to tell better stories. be more entertaining. we are always talking about narratives. the larger problem, though, the thing that i'm trying to address with a bipartisan list of political novels is that the distinction between politics and entertainment disappear. everything is politics. and at the same time, everything is entertainment. donald trump is politics and entertainment. the nfl is entertainment and politics. there is no difference anymore. i find that to be, you know, know, unprecedented situation. at the same time, it seems to me that it is only novelist, fiction writers that can only give an account of what is going on in this country. beginning with donald trump. the journalistic class has largely failed to explain who this person is and how he could have become president. i'm pretty sure that gabriella garcia marquez would be able to give us a much more interesting account of how a person of this nat

it is always about winning the culture wars through power. what is fascinating is there are all kinds of thoughtful evangelicals providing alternative ways for which evangelicals may be able to engage in public life, but the christian right ignores these things. many other attempts at thinking about evangelicals are rooted in what a type of pluralism might look like. how can we live together with our deepest differences? the christian right seems to be -- using another metaphor, a dog chasing a bus. they've been chasing, trying to win back the culture, gain control, gain control. they haven't thought very deeply what they would do if they gain control. what does the christian right want? women put in prison for abortion? putting into prison abortion doctors? require a law that says you'll be fined if you don't say merry christmas? absurd things, but it is unclear what the christian right wants once they do, or if they do, when the culture wars. host: from the book, while there have been small victories, the christian right is not any closer t
