Bilingual report — Gina Santi Photography Images of the Month – June 2021

During a recent photographic journey to the state of Yucatan, Mexico I noticed with amazement that, amidst the current COVID pandemic, everybody -vendors and customers in stores and markets, tourists exploring the sites, employees in government organizations, and even priests in churches- was wearing face coverings, even in the blazing hot mid-day sun; likewise, the community at large implemented measures to protect its members from being infected with the nasty virus while life went on somewhat as usual. No discussions, no arguments (political or otherwise), no reluctancy.
 
This was in sharp contrast with the general attitude of community members in my country of residence, the United States, and as a cultural anthropologist wondered about the reason behind these two very dissimilar ways of behaving. Two equally dissimilar cultural concepts came to mind: individualism and collectivism.

La Casa della Fontana Piccola, (the House of the Small Fountain) is perhaps the most refined and elegant mansion of Pompeii. It is a typical dwelling of the local ruling class, a small atrium house located in a privileged spot along Via di Mercurio. The house owes its name to a beautiful fountain decorated with shells, colorful mosaics, and bronze statuettes, located at the very back of the central garden.

Bilingual report — District 2 Supervisor Liz Archuleta — Coconino County Proclamation Requires Face Mask

Coconino County issued a proclamation last evening on June 19 requiring residents and visitors to wear a face covering when not able to physical distance themselves from other persons. The proclamation, effective on Saturday, June 20 at noon, applies to all private lands in the unincorporated areas of the County. The County proclamation does not affect areas within cities or towns in the County or on federal, state or tribal lands.

“Wearing a face covering when around others is one of the single most effective ways to help slow the spread of COVID-19 in our community,” said Coconino County Chairwoman Liz Archuleta. “Each of us can help to prevent COVID-19 transmission by wearing a face covering when we cannot physically distance from others. Please do your part and model best practices by putting on your face covering when you are out in public and around other people. This is one thing we can do to take care of ourselves and neighbors.”
