Before all was the Gram, a unit of measure, an image in time, an expression of will.

His name was John Waters, writer for the LV Herald, known primarily for coverage of the unrest on the Northside.

Two names caught Cam’el’ s eye. He set the three-year old on the floor. That was all it took to send her on a beeline for the electronic notepad, which had fallen between the futon and fichus tree.

When the squad cars rolled to a stop, John Water’s was finishing a speech to a receptive crowd at the Rally for Peace.

Driving on the South side was surreal, miles of nearly deserted streets lined with birch, olive, pine, willow and perfectly manicured lawns, even under drought restriction.

Miguel exited the Summerlin Goodwill clutching six white plastic bags, vendor treasure overflowing. He texted Colson a picture of his haul, designer denims and brown leather shoes.

Distracted by phones, sunsets, fast cars, and shiny lights, one of these jumps out and grabs the driver of the black Jeep, causing it to swerve violently then flip, the metal mass slamming hard into the freeway underpass.

BRIDEZILLA. He watched it with the sound down, imagining scenarios from the wild hand gestures and mouthed cussing that followed.

The car rolls up to the Venetian. Nicole Denis, a tall woman in white linen and hair wrapped in regal kente’ gets in, engaged with a colleague on the phone.

When they crossed paths again, John Waters noticed more young people surrounding Cam’el. He was forming a campaign circle.

It, an expansive red sandstone canyon, plates moving in slow motion, shifting, pushing up from the ground – monuments tested, tried and true.

Cam’el unlocked the door. Behind him across the hall, Ms. Nancy spied through a crack. He turned and she unhinged the latch, child already in her arms, now in his.

Simone, emerging as a leader, greets everyone, as does her brother Andrew. Lana introduces her brother Baldwin to Colson, Miguel, Ray, Brent, Zora, Racine, Karl and Justus.

Cam’el was encouraged. Jackie and her friends had committed support, feeling the meeting had inspired them. On impulse, he decided to gather Karin and visit the old neighborhood.

Karl pulls the car into the Eucalyptus Senior Living roundabout. A well-dressed woman peers in from a curbside bench.

Neither of them spoke until Karl exited 215 freeway, coming to a stop at the corner of Red Rock Casino.

The app rang and Zora follows the coordinates to Nellis Blvd. A young woman waits under a dim light in a deserted strip mall. “Irene?” As she gets in, the app rings again sending the carpool toward Fremont Street.

“Men wrote that.”

Nicole Denis extends an offer to Cam'el to audition for her new season of MARRIED TO THE MOVEMENT and BRIDEZILLA: Bachelor Edition.

When they get to Cam’el, he focuses on his father. "My dad is an incredible person. I mean, he taught me everything about who I am.

“That was great Cam’el,” Nicole said, unclipping the mic from his collar. “The stuff about you and your dad, exceptional, really different from the others.

"You’ve seen the things we’re doing across the Valley, chronicling lives in the shadow of a booming economy. We’re not blaming politicians or business, as some say.”

Early episodes of MARRIED TO THE MOVEMENT go well, showcasing a Las Vegas most never see. Cam’el’s first community action involves teams arriving at 'Bucks Coffee.
