PERRIS, CA— On Saturday, April 29th Assemblymember Dr. Corey Jackson invited the next Speaker of the California State Assembly Robert Rivas to tour the 60th Assembly District to learn more about the region’s affordable housing projects, economic development, and community. The visit was an important opportunity to engage with the local community and hear firsthand the challenges they face. The tour encompassed three key locations: The Courtyards at Cottonwood in Moreno Valley, the Elected Officials Brunch, and Downtown Perris. This was a chance for the Speaker-Designate to gain a deeper understanding of the issues affecting the region and work towards creating a better future for all.

“Ensuring that every Californian has access to housing is one of our state’s major challenges, and it will take every level of government to help tackle our housing crisis,” said Assembly Speaker-Designate Robert Rivas. “Moreno Valley and Perris are rising to the occasion to bolster housing opportunities, and I want to thank Assemblymember Jackson for his work on this issue and for organizing this tour.”

The tour began in Downtown Perris, a hub for economic development in the area. They learned about the city’s efforts to make Downtown Perris a destination, and the economic development projects that are underway to create more job opportunities for the local community.

Mayor Michael Vargas of Perris expressed his gratitude for the Speaker-Designate’s visit, saying, “We are thrilled to have Speaker-Designate Robert Rivas join us in Perris to learn about our rich history, affordable housing projects, and economic development. His visit underscores the importance of community engagement in building a better future.”

The second stop on the tour was the Elected Officials Brunch, which provided an opportunity for elected community members to meet with the Speaker-Designate and discuss issues facing the area. This was a great opportunity for the Speaker-Designate to connect with the local community and hear firsthand the challenges they face.

The last stop on the tour was, the Courtyards at Cottonwood, an 81-unit gated community developed by The Rancho Belago Developers, Inc. The community features 60 units set aside for lower-income families, and 20 units reserved for lower-income seniors. This project is a shining example of what can be achieved when developers prioritize affordable housing for underprivileged communities.

“I was honored Speaker Designate Rivas was able to see firsthand the incredible work Moreno Valley is doing in regard to economic development, cultural heritage, and inclusive housing,” said Mayor Cabrera. “His visit highlights the importance of investing in our communities to create a better future for all. I want to thank Assemblymember Dr. Corey Jackson for organizing and attending this tour.”

Assemblymember Dr. Corey Jackson expressed his appreciation for the Speaker-Designate’s visit, saying, “As a representative of the 60th Assembly District in the Inland Empire, it’s important to me that we bring leaders from around the state to gain a deeper understanding of the issues facing our community. This tour, which included stops at the Courtyards at Cottonwood, the Elected Officials Brunch, and Downtown Perris, was an excellent opportunity to showcase our region’s community and highlight the progress we’ve made in creating affordable housing and promoting economic development. I’m grateful to Speaker-Designate Robert Rivas for taking the time to visit our district and for his commitment to addressing the challenges we face.”

The tour provided a great opportunity for the Speaker-Designate to learn more about the housing, economic development, and the region. By engaging with the local community and learning from their experiences, the Speaker-Designate can better understand the challenges they face and work towards creating a better future for all.

During the tour Assemblymember Dr. Corey Jackson was joined by Majority Leader Eloise Reyes and Assemblymember Sabrina Cervantes.

Wake up! Watchmen’s are sending out the warnings and blowing shofars. America is in trouble. What we’re seeing in America is the death of morality. What we’re seeing in America is the death of biblical standards. Morality and biblical commitment are fading in our nation and fading before our very eyes and God is not pleased. America is caught in the doomsday cycle. We are a dying nation in a world of dying nations and dying people.

And in [Isaiah chapter 5], it is showing us what to expect, giving us a truest picture, a divine insight to understand what’s going on in our country, a model of glorious beginnings and disastrous endings, a model of apostasy, a model of decline, a model of starting with the glorious truth of God and ending up in the judgment of God. Wake up! Being oblivious of the obvious will cause you to lose your life.

In [1 Corinthians chapter 10], the apostle Paul said that the Old Testament was written to give us examples. There was a people given everything by God to assure a glorious future. But they, too, followed the same cycle and ended up in tragic judgment.

I tell you, this nation is in the throes of its death. We’re going down, and it’s not political and economic; and it’s not partisan; it’s the rise of sin – defiant sin and the disregard for God’s Word that is taking us down. Wake up!

For He says in [Proverbs 1:24-31] “Because I called and you refused, I stretched out My hand and no one paid attention and you neglected all My counsel and did not want my reproof, I will even laugh at your calamity, I will mock when your dread comes. When your dread comes like a storm and your calamity comes on like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come on you, you will call on Me, but I will not answer, you will seek Me diligently, but you shall not find Me because you hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the Lord. You shall eat of the fruit of you own way and be satiated with your own desires.”

Listen, there is always an outpouring, and it is called mercy before trouble comes. I believe and I’m trembling as I’m saying this that we’re entering in a season where God is asking us to take this time seriously because time is running out. Don’t wait until its too late because the sirens are getting louder and louder. Doomsday is around the corner and Christ is soon to return. The situation in the world has become so unstable that catastrophe could happen at any moment.

It’s “Two Minutes Till Midnight” [1 Peter 4:7-11]. Repent and give your life to Jesus NOW! Don’t wait until it’s too late! The Bible urges us to have a sense of urgency, and it describes the suddenness of end-time catastrophes. prophecies that warn of how quickly disaster can [and will] come in the end times. Read it for yourself [Isaiah 5:26; Jeremiah 4:20; 6:26; Isaiah 30:13; 1 Thessalonians 5:3]. And as [Matthew 24:22] reveals, without divine intervention, a coming time of war and destruction would destroy all human life. What are your waiting for? Give your life to Christ today! Because not only are we warned from the Word of God, but “Scientists even revealed on Tuesday, January 24th, 2023, that the “Doomsday Clock” has been moved up to 90 seconds before midnight — the closest humanity has ever been to Armageddon. Before 2020, the closest the hand was set to midnight was two minutes. The Doomsday Clock serves as a warning, according to man, of how close the world is to self-annihilation caused by human activity. Midnight is considered the end of all human life.”

Rachel Bronson, the president of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, who unveiled this year’s Doomsday Clock set at 100 seconds to midnight, said “It is the first time the measurement was released in seconds, indicating that the “current environment is profoundly unstable and URGENT ACTION and IMMEDIATE engagement is required by all.”

Also, in the press conference for this year’s Doomsday Clock, former California Governor Jerry Brown likened the scientists’ warning to “VOICES OF THE PROPHETS OF DOOM.” He said that “speaking of danger and destruction is never very easy—if you speak the truth, people will not want to listen, because it’s too awful.” He went on to say that the prophets of old, like Isaiah and Jeremiah, were ignored as well. And as well all know, the warnings of the Old Testament prophets were not just for their time. They also apply to our time [Isaiah 30:8; Daniel 12:9; Habakkuk 2:2-3].

Listen, everything is aligning closely with many prophesied signs of the end times found in the Bible. So how should you respond?. The Bible urges to have a sense of urgency. It describes the suddenness of end-time catastrophes.

The enemy nations will come “from the end of the earth; surely they shall come with speed, swiftly” [Isaiah 5:26], causing great destruction [Jeremiah 4:20; 6:26]. Setting them ablaze, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall. And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day when I act, says the Lord of hosts [Malachi 4:1–3, 5].

So, whatcha gonna do? For this is the day of redemption. This is the day of opportunity. This is the day to bear the fruit of repentance. This is the day to be saved from destruction. Whatcha gonna do?

“When you tell them all this, they will not listen to you; when you call to them, they will not answer. [Jeremiah 7:27].

And just as I had called and they would not listen, so when they call, I will not listen, says the LORD of Hosts. [Zechariah 7:13].

The people missed the opportunity to be saved from both earthly and eternal destruction. [Luke 19:41-44]. Tragedy!

The fifth of May, Cinco de Mayo, is a holiday that celebrates the Battle of Puebla, which took place in 1862 near the Mexican city of Puebla. On this day, the Mexican army, led by General Ignacio Zaragoza, defeated the French in their attempt to take over the country.

While this date is not widely celebrated in Mexico, except for perhaps in Puebla itself, it has become a popular holiday in the United States.

It’s a common misconception that Cinco de Mayo celebrates Mexico’s independence. In fact, Mexico’s Independence Day is celebrated on September 16th.

In 1867, five years after the Mexican army’s victory over the French forces at Puebla, the triumph was first celebrated in the United States, in Texas where General Zaragoza was born. Later in 1930, the Mexican consulate in Los Angeles held an official celebration that helped establish the identity of the Mexican and Latin American community in the United States.

During the 1960s and 1970s, the celebration of Cinco de Mayo gained popularity in the United States due to the efforts of the Chicano movement. This movement fought for the civil and human rights of Mexican Americans and played an important role in structuring the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Celebrating Cinco de Mayo became a way for the Mexican American community to assert their identity and say “We, Mexicans, are here. This is us. We speak Spanish and this is how we celebrate.”

In 1980, as the Chicano movement was gaining momentum, U.S. beer companies began to market Cinco de Mayo through advertising campaigns that encouraged the community to celebrate their identity by consuming their products.

Subsequently, other companies followed suit giving a twist to the meaning of the celebration and redefining it as a celebration of Mexican culture in the United States. As a result, while Cinco de Mayo is now widely celebrated, many people who participate in the festivities are unaware of its origins.

Cinco de Mayo has evolved to become not only a celebration of Mexican culture but also a symbol of the struggle and unity of all oppressed migrant and Latino communities.

This date is typically celebrated with large festivities that feature Mexican music, traditions, art, food, and beverages.

Rubén Ábrica, mayor of East Palo Alto, pointed out in an interview with Peninsula 360 Press that during the celebrations of Cinco de Mayo “people of Mexican descent celebrate their contributions to the American society and join Latino communities affirming their culture, history, and aspirations for justice and equity for the Latinx community and for the people of the United States and around the world.”

Ábrica acknowledged that the celebration of Cinco de Mayo in East Palo Alto retains its historical significance by inspiring the community to stand up for their rights and fight “against racist oppression and inequality. These issues have caused suffering for many people, particularly those who are people of color and other vulnerable groups.

The Cinco de Mayo holiday provides an opportunity to explore themes of freedom, culture, and identity. By challenging stereotypes and rejecting one-dimensional representations of Mexican culture: tropes like Sombreros, Burros, and Huaraches.

Undoubtedly, the celebration of Cinco de Mayo has deeper roots than being a celebration where Mexican music is played, it must be more than an excuse to drink Tequila or Mezcal (but who needs one, right?), or a marketing strategy for beer companies, and where typical food is consumed.

There is more than one good reason to celebrate Cinco de Mayo this year. Acknowledging the value and importance of Mexican Heritage and learning about the rich history of Mexican people in the United States is a worthy endeavor.

PASADENA, CA—- This month, Assemblymember Chis Holden announced a brand-new member to his team.

SAN BERNARDINO, CA— The San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra is extremely proud to present the Joshua White Ensemble in a special tribute to the music of Thelonius Monk and John Coltrane on May 20 at 7:30 p.m. the San Bernardino Valley College Auditorium. This performance is part of the Symphony’s Chamber Series curated – and at this event also performed in – by Music Director and Conductor Anthony Parnther.

Explained Maestro Parnther, “Following the popularity of last year’s focus on Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, we were excited to design a new concert centering on the legendary musical minds of John Coltrane and Thelonius Monk. Bringing the great Joshua White to San Bernardino was a real coup for our organization, and I can’t think of anyone better to feature on such a technically challenging concert.”

Thelonius Sphere Monk (1917-1982) was an American jazz pianist and composer with a quique improvisational style whose work significant informed the standard jazz repertoire. The second most recorded jass composer after Duke Ellington, his compositions and improvisations feature dissonances and angular melodic twists and are consistent to his unorthodox approack to the piano which combined a highly percussive attack with abrupt, dramatic use of switched ket releases, silences, and hesitations.

John William Coltrane (1926–1967) was an American jazz saxophonist, bandleader and composer. He is among the most influential and acclaimed figures in the history of jazz and  20th-century music. Coltrane moved to Philadelphia after graduating high school, where he studied music. Working in the bebop idiom early in his career, he helped pioneer the use of modes and was one of the players at the forefront of free jazz. However, his addiction to heroin stalled his career and it was not until he formed a collaboration with Monk that he was able to turn his life and his music around.

Following, he led at least fifty recording sessions and appeared on many albums by other musicians, including, of course, Thelonius Monk. Arguably, their most important album collaboration is 1961’s Thelonius Monk and John Coltrane. The impetus for the album was the discovery of three usable studio tracks recorded by the Monk Quartet with Coltrane in July 1957 at the beginning of the band’s six-month residency at New York’s legendary Five Spot Club. To round out the release, label Jazzland included two outtakes from the Monk’s Music  album recorded the previous month, and one additional outtake from Thelonius Himself  recorded that April. The album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2007.

Joshua White’s own style is in many ways a reflection of the Monk-Coltrane partnership. As one of the current music scene’s most creative and technically accomplished pianists, and praised by legendary musicians like Herbie Hancock as having “immense talent” and lauded for his “daring and courageous approach to improvisation… on the cutting edge of innovation,” Joshua White has distinguished himself as a formidable leader among his peers. Born and raised in Southern California, White received early training at the piano and developed rapidly through rigorous study of both Western European Classical literature and the Black American Music traditions. Shortly after placing in the top two as a finalist of the prestigious Thelonious Monk International Piano Competition, he began concertizing as a soloist and musical collaborator all over the world — and continues to maintain an active touring schedule throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia.

The ensemble is comprised of a talented and eclectic group of outstanding musicians including bassist Karl McComas-Reichl, drummer Mark Ferber, vocalist Dwight Trible, alto saxist Josh Johnson, and on tenor sax and clarinet Chris Speed.

Bassist McComas-Reichl is also a cellist, film composer and artist. He earned a BFA from The New School. His arrangement and performance credits include:  Baskets Season 4, The Shrink Next Door, Special, Three Busy Debras, ONI: Thunder Gods Tale, Grace & Frankie, NY State Lottery  Other performance credits include:  Jane Monheit, Ingrid Jensen, Mark Turner, John C. Reilly, Larry Goldings, Ben Monder, Matt Wilson, Joshua White, Joy Crookes, Matt Otto, Tony Tixier, Anthony Wilson, Glenn Zaleski, Josh Nelson, Peter Schlamb, Hermon Mehari, Maelo Ruiz, Liberty Ellman, Logan Richardson, Colin Stranahan, Geoff Keezer, Logan Hone and Tommy Crane.

Drummer Mark Ferber can be heard on nearly 200 recordings.  His ongoing projects include ECM recording artist Ralph Alessi’s ‘This Against That’,  the Marc Copland trio, the Brad Shepik Organ Trio, and his twin brother, Alan Ferber’s Grammy nominated big band.  He currently maintains a busy freelance schedule throughout New York’s jazz clubs, recording studios, and international touring circuit.  Past work includes tours and recordings with Lee Konitz, Gary Peacock, Jonathan Kreisberg, John O’Gallagher, Don Byron, Fred Hersch, Tony Malaby, Anna Webber, Mark Helias, Pete McCann, Matt Pavolka, Michael Attias and Billy Childs, among others.  Mark has taught extensively in the United States and Europe.

Vocalist Dwight Trible combines the best of vocal virtuosity with musicianship and improvisational skills to the delight of audiences and musicians alike. In addition to performing with his own group, the Dwight Trible Ensemble, he is the vocalist with the Pharaoh Sanders Quartet and is also the vocal director for the Horace Tapscott Pan Afrikan Peoples’ Arkestra.  Trible has worked with such notables as Oscar Brown jr., Charles Lloyd, Billy Childs, Kenny Burrell, Kenny Garrett, Steve Turre, Harold Land, Harry Belafonte, Della Reese and Norman Conners, John Beasley, Patrice Rushen, Babatunde Lea, Ernie Watts, Kahlil El Zabar, as well as contemporary soul artist like LA Reid and DJ Rogers.

Josh Johnson is a saxophonist, keyboardist, multi-instrumentalist, and composer. He has performed extensively with the likes of Jeff Parker, Kiefer, Makaya McCraven, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Leon Bridges, and Marquis Hill.  Johnson can be heard on records by all of these artists, as well as records from the Chicago Underground Quartet, Jeremy Cunningham, Mark de Clive-Lowe, Dawes, Dexter Story, Louis Cole, and Joshua White.  Since 2018, Johnson has been the musical director, keyboardist, and saxophonist for Leon Bridges, which has taken him to Europe, Asia, and Australia. Highlights of his time with Bridges include sold-out performances at Radio City Music Hall, Greek Theater, and the Hollywood Bowl.  As a composer, Johnson has written music for many of his own projects, including the bands Snaarj and Holophonor, in addition to writing music for commercial use. He recently contributed arrangements to Sara Gazarek’s album “Thirsty Ghost”, which was nominated for two Grammy awards.

Chris Speed is a tenor saxophonist, clarinetist and composer, whose work ranges widely, from a jazz base out through various forms of folk, classical and rock music. Affiliated with a bewildering variety of ensembles, he has been a prominent and influential voice in jazz and improvised music for three decades.  After studies at New England Conservatory followed by a stint with the Artie Shaw Band (led by Dick Johnson), Speed moved to New York City where he started working with Tim Berne and his band Bloodcount. Speed has put an inimitable stamp on the classic sax-bass-drums format.  Most compelling about his music is the incorporation of early jazz styles in a way that is direct and deeply felt.

“Tickets are selling fast to this year’s jazz event. I can’t wait for our patrons to experience this spellbinding concert!” said Maestro Parnther.
