Alley Chats: Brett Benton brings the delta blues to Moscow
Not-so-sad blues music picked up the energy levels at John's Alley Friday

Benton and the band are busy, playing between 23-25 shows a month. This August alone they played 25 shows throughout Washington. Some of their favorites places to play at are the now closed Highway 99 Blues Club, the Tractor Tavern in Seattle, Club Crow in Cashmere, The Saphire Room in Boise and the New Roxy in Clarksdale, Mississippi.
The two had heard of John’s Alley through friends who played there previously. In the past they’ve tried to play there but had never worked out until last Friday.

Workplace tattoos
Some industries are allowing visible tattoos. What now?

If an employer can allow tattoos in an industry like social work, commonly deemed a more “professional” industry than most, I think other employers should be able to follow suit.

Embracing my status as a survivor
The #MeToo Movement was a start, but we need to do more

At the moment, society is so wrapped up in discussing the rights we should give to victims that we have not even begun to talk about helping them heal and find their status as a survivor.
