Poet’s Prologue: I am the Invisible veteran. I recently read an article about the finding of a deep sea fish that was always there but was never seen. before. Think of that a second…something always there…but never seen. Like the GI Bill creating housing patterns that led to modern racial reckoning. Like a placid ocean […]
For once, Carly Simon, we’re right! And it has nothing to do with our vanity! Though we can’t deny we have a healthy dose of it. How much do you know about these songs that are most definitely about RI? This iconic performer sings she was “Fully Matured by the Time she was Ten” in My […]
We are counting the days until the Washington County Fair returns to Richmond! We loved the virtual programming last year — we could almost smell the goats — but it just wasn’t the same. This year, we can’t wait for the carnival rides, live bands, games and demonstrations that show agriculture is alive and well […]
Salutations, louts and bully-boys! H.L. Popinjay here with another edition of The Cabinet, the column which, much like the chocolate cabinets of my wayward Rhode Island youth, is bound to give you a stomachache. Politicking is a nasty business these days, as evidenced by the recent public spat between The Mayor and The Governor over […]
Do you recognize that hand on our cover? No? Let’s play a little game. Gen Xers over here, Zoomers over there. Now, Xers — picture that hand chopping wildly at the air, dressed in an oversized suit, the epitome of cool. Zoomers — picture that hand on TikTok, chopping wildly at the air, the epitome […]

And the weight of your ankles Never have the strength To shake off the anchors Holding you down. The chain of subjection. The more […]

I’m Brian Leosz, the owner of Butterbang, a one-man croissant bakery in Providence. As a small food business owner, I understand the risk of taking a food concept from the home kitchen to a commercial kitchen. I wish it were a less risky endeavor in our state. However, food businesses of all sizes in Rhode […]
Criminal records for marijuana-related offenses have excluded individuals — disproportionately members of Black, brown and low-income communities — from engaging in meaningful opportunities in our state for far too long. Over the past 50 years, the failed War on Drugs has ruined lives in Rhode Island, and it is time for the state to fix […]
I am a woman, I am a queen Beautiful mind, beautiful soul Sexy from my eyes to the bottoms of my feet Every bit of me, the pride runs so deep Walk tall for all to see and witness The arrival of a Queen Don’t fret I’m just being me Seeing you creep and take a peek Loving and admiring all that you see Letting my insecurities get the best of me for a moment I get weak Then I think, oh no girl they like what they see, it’s you they seek A rockstar when you move the crowd […]
