1 Riley, Ingram Trade Charges
60 PAGES
Over Opa-locka Finances
By Mwachukwu Ezem
Former Opa-locka mayor
John Riley has accused his
successor in office of grand-
standing so as to make all
other officials look bad.
But current mayor Dr.
Robert Ingram insists that the
city ran up deficits under
8 Riley and that it reflected bad-
ly on the image of Opa-locka.
"Riley was out of town when
the news broke that Ingram
had asked the state to ex-
amine the city’s budget
because of a suspected million
dollar deficit.
The department of state's
community affairs division
sent auditors who have con-
firmed that the city operated
in the red for about three
years.
Riley, at
incensed news
reports that implied he allow-
ed that to happen, this week
ridiculed the audit, charging
that only the auditor general,
and not Community Affairs,
can audit a municipality.
Riley insists that he ran the
city on a balanced budget dur-
ing his 1984-1986 term, noting
that he amplified on that point
in his last State of the City ad-
dress.
He was defeated by Ingram
last fall, and Ingram says
from the inventory he took
after assuming office, what he
found was not surplus but
deficits for the past two years
and the first half of this year.
Riley also defended the
city’s paying close to $200,000
to a part-time attorney, Albert

Garvey Celebration Ends
Tonight With Forum
By April Young
A forum tonight on the life of
Marcus Garvey will wrap up a
four-day celebration organiz-
ed by local Black groups
honoring the 100th anniver-
sary of the leader's birth.
The North Dade Regional
Library, 2455 NW 183rd St.,
will be the site of a community
gathering with speakers,
discussion, and dramatic
presentation.
The forum follows an out-
door festival, Aug. 15 and 16,
and a reception honoring Mia-
mians of Garvey’'s birth.
The outdoor activities were
held on the grounds of the
Model City Cultural Arts
Center, and visitors were
entertained by bands, rap
groups, and dancers.
Speakers from the celebra-
tion organizers’ groups, such
as the International African
Movement, the Nation of
Islam, and the Southern Chris-
tian Leadership Conference,
also took part. Mayoral can-
didate Arthur Teele was on
hand and spoke as well.
African culture, in the form
of food, craft and jewelry, was
on display.
Monday, the two local sur-
viving members of Garvey's
Universal Negro Improve-
ment Association, James
Nimmo and Bruce Gaitor,
were presented with plaques
in recogntion of their contribu-
tions. Pictures from the move-
ment were featured as were
other materials from the
Black Archives.
According to Gene Tinnie of
the Kuumba Artists’ Associa-
tion, the Monday reception
was well-attended, but atten-
dance at the two-day outdoor
festival was low. However,
Tinnie said, “The only way we
could have failed was not to do
anything, and we didn’t just
let the date pass without mak-
ing an effort.â€
SEATTLE (AP)— A natural
hormone produced through
genetic engineering may pro-
vide a new treatment for
sickle cell anemia by
stimulating victims’ bodies to
manufacture normal blood
cells, ammal studies suggest.
The goal is to trick the body
into producing a healthy form
of hemoglobin that ordinarily
is largely absent after birth.
Scientists at the University
of Washington injected the
hormone into baboons and
found that it stimulated the
animals to produce blood cells
containing fetal hemoglobin,
‘the best anti-sickling agent,â€
Dr. George Stamatoyan-
nopoulos, a UW professor of
medicine and senior author of
the study, said at a news con-
ference.
A similar approach using
drugs has been successful in
humans, but the medicines
are too toxic to use routinely.
The researchers hope that the
protein, called erythropoeitin,
or EPO, will provide a safe
alternative for treating sickle
cell anemia
“Although much further ex-
perimentation 1s necessary to
extend our findings to
humans, the advantage of
EPO appears to be that
because it occurs naturally in
the body (to form red blood
cells), it is less likely to cause
harmful or toxic side effects,â€

Key West Blacks
Push For Support
By Mohamed Hamaludin
Blacks comprise 11 percent
of the 30,000 or so residents of
Key West, America’s most
southern city, but there is only
one Black in any governmen-
tal position of note.
And the job of that Black,
Roy Grant, the city’s federal
programs administrator for
the past 10 years, is now being
threatened.
Grant has been suspended
twice in one week by Assistant
City Manager Peter Horton.
News reports from the area
said Horton called on him to
resign or face dismissal.
The allegations against
Grant, according to news
reporls., are that he
“‘falsified’’ the postmark on an
application for a federal grant
to make it appear that the
deadline was met, and that he
is an officer of a non-profit
radio station designated as a
recipient of the grant.
Journalists Urged To Push For Parity
By Nwachukwu Ezem
More than 1,000 Black jour
nalists opened their annual
convention in Miami yester-
day to a strong endorsement
of their push for parity in the
newsroom.
Chicago's mayor, Harold
Washington, told the opening
session of the 12th annual con-
vention of the National
Association of Black Jour
nalists that attaining parity in
Anglo-dominated newsrooms
constitutes a tough job ‘‘but
whatever it takes, it's got to be
done.â€
Black journalists should
raise their voices for equal
representation in hiring,
retention and promotion to
positions of influence, he
declared.
Washington urged the jour
nalists to hold fast to their con
ference theme: ‘‘Paving the
Way to Parity.â€
Several of the journalists ar
rived early to get a feel of
Miami before the meeting
started
At a reception and dinner
sponsored by The Miami
Times Tuesday, outgoing na
tional president Albert Fitz
patrick, an Knight Ridder ex-
ecutive based in Miami, said
he was proud to announce the
association had grown both in
numbers and finances.
Gayle Pollard, of the Los
Angeles Times, agreed that
the association has become a
formidable force in jour-
nalism in this country.
The association, he said, has
taught its members more
about politics and other
issues.
Miami Times publisher
Garth C. Reeves Sr. welcomed
the growth reported by the
association but regretted that

“there are still a lot of things

Jimmy Lee Tucker In Bi
Insists He’s Been Jailed Wrongfully
By Samantha Gates
Jimmie Lee Tucker, a
38-year-old father of four, jail-
ed for life seven years ago for
an alleged armed burglary he
insists he did not commit, is
making a new bid to win
release from prison.
“I was unjustly charged,â€
said Tucker in a letter to The
Miami Times.
He said he was convicted
almost exclusively on his past
record.
“My family, but especially
my children, have suffered the
loss of my support, compa-
nionship and protection . . .â€
Tucker wrote.
Rasheed Signs
Up For Gun
Lessons
Prentice Rasheed, the
Liberty City businessman who
made international headlines
by his use of an electrical
grate which resulted in the
death of an alleged burglar,
will be taking the first step
toward applying for a
concealed-weapon permit.
Rasheed has signed up for a
two-hour classroom and
firing-range course (required
by the new state law) to be
conducted today at a South
Dade gun shop.

“My goal is to be reunited
with my family, become a pro-
ductive member of society
and enjoy the freedom that
was taken from me over an in-
cident that should never have
been prosecuted,†he added.
Tucker has managed to gain
support from the man whose
business he allegedly
burglarized and who has twice
written to ask that he be parol-
ed.
Tucker had gone into Cap-
tain Jimmy's Sub Station,
12992 SW 89th Ave. to use the
bathroom. He worked on a
nearby construction site
where a co-worker told him
the location of the bathroom
after buying lunch there. But
Tucker maintained he was
never told it was off limits to
the public.
After discovering no tissue
inthe men’s room, he went in-
to what was considered the
backroom in search for some.
There he was confronted by
the store’s owner, William
Boisvert, who took Tucker to
be a robber.
Tucker said Boisvert called
him names and told him to
wait until police arrived. This
is when Tucker, who was on
probation, flipped the owner
and tried to escape. Boisvert

Carollo Passes On Suarez
Taunt
Miami commissioner Joe Carollo has decided to pass on
a challenge from Mayor Xavier Suarez that he contest
him for the top city job. Suarez announced Friday at the
Manatee Club that he will seek a second term as mayor,
and he used the occasion to slam Carollo as an ‘‘embar-
rassment.†Tuesday, Carollo told a news conference he
has no intention to take on Suarez. The mayor has become
the second person so far to declare a candidacy in what
has turned out to be a very tame campaign. Attorney-
businessman Arthur Teele has already said he will bid for
School Board Tackles
Paddling
The Dade County School Board says it plans to adopt a
new policy that will'discourage principals from paddling
students. The new policy will urge principals to resort to
suspension before paddling a student. The new policy was
debated yesterday and a final vote will be taken Sept. 30.
All statistical evidence shows that Blacks are far more
likely to be paddled in the school system than other race
Valdes Backs Off On
Referendum
Metro commissioner Jorge Valdes has backed off from
his demand that Dade voters be asked at a referendum to
repeal the hotly-disputed anti-bilingual ordinance. Valdes
has come under intense pressure since he pressed the
matter in the commission and got his colleagues to agree
to a referendum. However, Valdes and 18 Hispanic groups
still want the law repealed; they are calling on the com-
mission to do so without going to the public for approval.
Broward Sued By Developer
A $30 million lawsuit has been slapped on Lauderhill and
Broward County charging that proposals for a low-income
housing scheme were rejected because of racial bias, The
Sun Sentinel reports. The suit was filed by a Pennsylvania
developer, Baytree of Inverrary Realty Partners, who
charged that residents at Lauderhill City residents did not
want to live near Blacks. The suit was filed in U.S. District
Court in Miami July 20. Baytree wanted to build a 327-unit
apartment complex which would have included about 60
low-income families, using a $24 million bond issue from
the Housing Finance Authority of Broward County.
Botha Postpones Elections
The head of South Africa’s racist Anglo minority
government, P.W. Botha, announced that he will postpone
a scheduled 1989 Anglo election until 1992 so his National
Party will have a five-year term in control of the Parlia-
ment’s dominant Anglo chamber, the Associated Press
reported. Botha said also that President Ronald Reagan
has shown “good sense’ in his dealings with South Africa,
but he sharply criticized Congress for imposing economic

leave, when an employee of

Tucker by using her car to
block his car that was parked
in front of the facility with an
unidentified female passenger
init. :
On Nov. 20, 1979, Judge
Lenore Nesbitt, sentenced
Tucker to a life term for arm-
ed burglary and armed
assault, after he was con-
victed by an all-Anglo jury.
According to news reports
at the time, questions that
could have determined
Tucker's innocence were not
answered by his defense at-
torney, Edward McHaley.
McHaley failed to pursue
questions such as:
* how could Tucker who sup-
posedly entered the facility
with the intent to commit an
armed robbery not be armed
at the time of his entry?
* why would Tucker park his
car in open view of employees
if he had the intent to commit
a crime?
* was Tucker's obtaining a
weapon done in self-defense?
* why was not the uniden-
tified woman in Tucker's car.
called as a material witness?
Neither Judge Nesbitt nor
McHaley returned calls to The
Miami Times this week.
Tucker insists that his
sentencing to life in prison for
armed burgulary was solely
decided on his past record. He
says that Baisvert also feels
that he was not fairly sentenc-
ed.
Tucker disclosed that
Boisvert has written on his
behalf to the Florida Parole
and Probation Commission
(FPPC) in 1983 and again in
1986, asking for them to con-
sider his immediate release.
Boisvert this week confirm-
ed that he had written the
parole board.
“I don’t think he should get
life for what happened bet-
ween us. I thought by now he
would be out, Boisvert said.â€
Boisvert added that the
police said that they had him
on a number of violations of
parae, such as working one
job when he told his parole of-
ficer he was working another.
“They really wanted him to
go behind bars based on his
past record,†said Boisvert,
who said that he has been
pressured by the police and

warned him to stop inquiring
about Tucker..
Ruth Anne Reese, ad-
ministrative assistant to the
parole board chairperson,
said the commission refused
to give Tucker parole several
times in the past year and
numerous times in the past
due to his previous record.
Reese also said that one
year and one day was added to
Tucker's life term after he
escaped on Feb. 12, 1985, from
the Miami North Community
Correctional Center, a work
release center. He was cap-
tured 484 days later.
Reese said that Tucker's
parole date is set for May 9,
2009. ;

Titusville Blacks Charge
Bias In Teens’ Convictions
TITUSVILLE (AP)— The
trial of three teenage Black
athletes accused of beating a
Brevard County sheriff's
deputy has ended with convic-
tions, death threats and
charges of racism, authorities
say.
Circuit Judge John Antoon
received three threatening
telephone calls Saturday, in-
cluding one vowing to ‘‘blow
him away.†Defense attorney
James Theriac received a
threatening letter saying he
would be shot.
The threats were made just
as a six-member jury
delivered guilty verdicts on
nine charges against Anthony
Griffin, 18, Aurlie Brown, 18,
and Shone McDowell, 16.
The verdict has resulted in
charges of racism against the
all-Anglo jury and Deputy
James Russell, who was
allegedly beaten by the
youths. The local NAACP
chapter asked Sheriff Jake
Miller to fire Russell, who ar-
rested the Black youths after a
traffic stop on Merritt Island.
Police had to be called out in
riot gear to quell a rock and
bottle throwing melee hours
after the verdict.
The trail of the talented
athletes accused of beating up
Russell ended late Saturday in
an atmosphere so tense that
more than 20 uniformed
bailiffs and deputies were call-
ed in for security.
“I don’t think my son got a
fair trial because there
weren't any Blacks on the
jury,†said Maxine Griffin,
mother of Anthony Griffin.
A cousin, James Fredd, 38,
echoed her sentiments.

Crime Rate Down In Opa-locka
By Samantha Gates
The annual Crime Watch's
National Night Out held
earlier this month had a
positive impact on at least one
community.
Opa-locka police reported a
3 percent decrease in crime
Opa-locka
Police Nab 16
Sixteen persons were ar-
rested and eight vehicles seiz-
ed in Opa-locka police’s latest
Make Our Streets Safe
(MOSS) Operation in the so-
called Triangle and other
areas of the city.
Fifteen of those held have
been charged with felonies,
and one with a misdemeanor.
The vehicles were held for
forfeiture proceedings.
Police managed to recover
one stolen auto during the
operation.
Opa-locka officers were
assisted by the Florida
Department of Law Enforce-
ment during the drug raids.
They reported no injuries dur-
ing the operation.
Tuesday, Aug. 11, compared
to the same day of the
previous week.
Floyd L. Reeves, Opa-locka
police chief, said his depart-
ment received 56 calls, two
less than for the previous
Tuesday.
Eddie Gilbert, a Metro-
Dade community service of-
ficer, attending one of the
many events sponsored by
Crime Watch, said that the
police cannot ‘‘take the bite
out of crime.â€â€™ The community
must do its part.
“Fifteen to 20 years ago,
police didn’t communicate
with citizens except for get-
ting information from them or
arresting them for a crime,â€
Gilbert said. ‘‘There were
crimes committed and the
people wouldn’t tell the
police.â€
He added that in the Crime
Watch program both the
police and the community are
working together, thus it has
provided them with a
favorable medium.
“With citizen involvement,
crime reduces 35 to 40
percent,†Gilbert said.
Spreading Larceny
Overall, Metro police report
that the crime rate for the
county has increased, while
Opa-locka and Miami are ex-
periencing a decrease.
Statistics given by Reeves
comparing the first six mon-
ths in 1987 to the same period
last year show an overall
decrease of 17.1 percent in the
following major crimes:
murder, — 66.7 percent; rob-
bery, — 40.4 percent; ag-
gravated assault, — 1.9 per-
cent; burglary, — 32.7 per-
cent; larceny, — 13.5 percent.
Motor vehicle theft was up 3.1
percent.
According to Leo Figueroa,
senior staff analyst in Plann-
ing and Research Unit for the
Miami Police, Miami also
shows a decrease in major
crimes. The statistics com-
pares the first six months of
1987 to the same period in
1986: robbery, — 11.5 percent,
aggravated assault, — 0.2 per-
cent; burglary, — 14.2 per-
cent; larceny — 8.3 percent;
auto theft, — 6.9 percent and
rape, — 7.8 percent. However,
murder is up 3.3 percent.
setup from the start. These
boys got railroaded just
because they are Blacks,†he
said. ‘“There would have
never been a trail if they
would have been White boys.’
Said Lasheika Smith, a
neighbor and friend of the
teenagers, “Mostly everybody
expected them to be found not
guilty.â€
Many of the defendants’
friends and relatives were in
tears at the courtroom.
The youths stood stoically as
the clerk read the jury's ver-
dicts: all three guilty of felony
battery on an officer and
misdemeanor simple battery.
Brown and McDowell were
convicted of felony obstruc-
ting justice with violence, and
Brown of a second battery
charge. Sentencing was set for
Sept. 14.
Flanked by supporters,
Russell left with little com-
ment, saying only that justice
had been served.
Russell had testified that he
sometimes used the word to
refer to Blacks but did not on
the night of the beating.
Antoon freed the youths on
higher bonds and imposed an 8
p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew on all
three. He withheld a formal
ruling of guilt so the three
youths won't have criminal
records.
Withholding a judgment of
guilt would allow Griffin to
join the Marines as heintends,
Brown to accept a football
scholarship at the University
of Miami and McDowell to
choose a career unen-
cumbered by a felony record.
Under state sentencing
guidelines, the maximum
penalty for Griffin would be a
year in the county jail. Brown
and McDowell face up to 30
months in a state prison.
It didn’t take long for the Florida East Coast
Railroad to cleanup their property at the railroad
tracks and 15th Street, where apartment
residents have been complaining of rats. Now, if
the City will get that auto repair shop on the cor-
ner of 14th and 1st Ave. to clean up its property,
the residents might be rat free.

Jackson Should
Stay The Course
The latest report on the probable candidacy of:
the Rev. Jesse Jackson for the presidency is that
he will make a formal announcement around Oc-
tober. He wants time to consider the matter
carefully, in view of the number of death threats
he says he received in his presidential bid in 1984
— 314 — and also to see whether a million dollars
can be raised to launch the candidacy.
Rev. Jackson’s entry into national politics has
posed a dilemma for America, for, principally, it
has forced Americans to either face up to the in-
herent racism in the social fabric, or, alternative-
ly, to indulge in crass hypocrisy and rationaliza-
tion. Many are the learned expositions as to why
he cannot win the presidency, and polite are the
excuses, save one, the real one: that he is Black.
Not only that. He happens also to be a Black man
who refuses to be cast in the Anglo mold. And he
refuses to go away.
So now there is talk about bringing out Rep.
William Gray of Pennsylvania to stop Rev.
Jackson but proposing at least a viable alter-
native Black.
But Rev. Jackson should stay the course,
regardless. He has done more for the Black race
in America, politically, than anybody else, in
terms of galvanizing Blacks into an awareness of
their potential as a political force. It is true that
although Rev. Jackson received over 90 percent of
the Black vote in the Democratic primaries, he
still trailed his opponents. But that merely show-
ed up the percentage of Blacks who neglect to
register to vote or those who just are too lazy to
vote. That is defeat by default.
Also, we comprise about 12 percent of the
population, making us the single biggest minority
group. You won’t know that, judging from the way
we abdicate our duty as voters.
Rev. Jackson must continue his candidacy, not
only to continue to force America to face up to its
innate prejudices but also to force us Blacks to
face up to our own shortcomings when it is a mat-
ter of political power.
Eatonville Salute
A special salute to the folks of Eatonville, the
Florida community which celebrated its 100th an-
niversary last weekend as the nation’s oldest
Black township. Despite the desperate poverty of
their community, they have shown that they can
manage their affairs at all levels.
Also, in ignoring the abhorrent presence of the
Ku Klux Klan at their centennial celebrations,
they have shown the nation and the rest of the
world the level of maturity which we have attain-
ed.
Eatonville is not a segregated town; it just hap-
pens to be a town where the majority of the people
are Black. Anybody can..go there are live;
although few Anglos would want to take the oppor-
tunity. That is a far cry from those communities-
around the country still dominated by Anglos who
use all sorts of guiles, as well as outright violence,
to keep Black people away.
The people of this Florida community have
begun to make plans to share in the growing pro-
sperity of the state. One urgent plan is to broaden
their tax base. For that, they can try to attract in-
dustries and more businesses. They will need, in
fact, to come out into the mainstream of Florida
and begin to implement those steps that will lure
people to Eatonville to live there.
Bringing in big businesses would be difficult
because of the fact that there is not a whole lot of
money circulating among residents. It may be
easier to seek to woo industries with special incen-
tives, especially but not exclusively some of the
big Black firms. Also, the city can seek to
capitalize on its importance not only to Blacks but
to the entire nation and promote a tourism image.
But probably the residents of Eatonville want
none of that. Perhaps they want to be left in peace
to live in their quiet town that they have built and
which has been a cradle of sorts for Black people
everywhere. Whatever they do. however. they
will have to bear the distinction that they are

Parole For Jimmy Lee Tucker
Even today, seven years after it occurred, the
injustice done to Jimmy Lee Tucker leaves a bit-
ter taste in the mouth. Mr. Tucker is the Black
Miamian who was charged with armed burglary
of a South Dade restaurant and, despite the very
thick evidence, was not only convicted by an all-
Anglo jury but sentenced to life imprisonment.
Yes, the judge sent him up for life, for armed
burglary.
Mr. Tucker has begun appealing for community
support to get him at least released on parole. The
owner of the business he allegedly broke into and
who was the main witness against him has
himself twice contacted the state parole commis-
AIDS Hits Home
Those who believe that they cannot become in-
fected with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syn-
drome — the dreaded AIDS disease — or that if
they do, they can escape the grim consequences
should seek out Mr. Charles Johnson and have a
few words with him.
Mr. Johnson has the disease, though he has not
yet become stricken. His wife, though, is on her
death bed with it. His children are now wards of
the state. He lost his job and his home. He is bit-
ter. And his bitterness derives not only from the
fact that he has the disease but that nobody seems
to care.
He says he has no means of supporting himself.
There is no agency that will provide him with the
sort of comfort and solace which a person in his
situation must yearn for. No agency or person is
willing to provide him with money to live on, and
no business seems willing to give him a job.
Mr. Johnson says he has no idea whatsoever as
to how he and his wife contracted the disease. He
says they did not engage in the activities usually
associated with AIDS, such as homosexuality, us-
ing drugs intravenously, or engaging in pro-
miscuous sex. That’s all the more reason why he
is so bitter.
Many warnings are being sounded throughout
the country, and especially in the Black communi-
ty, as to the dangers posed by this terrible
disease. And it is true that precious little is being
done by any government — federal, state, county
or city — to care for AIDS patients, although the
statistics indicate that Black people are propor-
tionately more at risk. Those who ignore the war-
nings and refuse to modify their behavioral pat-
terns must know that AIDS is the penalty, and it is
the death penalty.
sion, insisting that the penalty was too harsh and
urging that Mr. Tucker, now 38, be set free. That
plea, like many others, has fallen on deaf ears.
For some reason best known to themselves,
members of the parole commission insist in tumn-
ing down appeals for mercy in this case.
It was said that Mr. Tucker drew a harsh
sentence because he had previous convictions, but
that has never been made clear. Also, he broke
out of prison in 1985 and was at large for more
than a year, before being caught and sent back,
with an additional year and a day tacked on to his
sentence. It is hard to blame a man for trying to
escape from jail when he is imprisoned in the cir-
cumstances of Mr. Tucker.
The parole commission seems to be taking into
consideration the prior record Mr. Tucker had
when he was sentenced. But how come it is not
considering the circumstances of the case in mak-
ing its decision? Mr. Tucker wants to be reunited
with his wife and family and become a productive
member of society. There is no evidence that if he
is released he will be a menace to the community,
so pressure should be put on the parole board to
give him a hearing.
Bold Move By TLC
The Black-owned New York investment firm,
TLC Group Inc. is making a bold step into the ma-
jor leagues with its intended leveraged buyout of
the giant multinational corporation Beatrice In-
ternational Food Co. TLC has signaled its inten-
tion to acquire the firm and Beatrice’s parent
company, BCI Holdings, of Chicago, says it will
sell for $985 million.
To understand what this all means, take a look
at the numbers. Beatrice is expecting its sales
will top $2.5 billion this year. So far, the biggest
Black firm, as listed by Black Enterprise
magazine, is Johnson Publishing, which reported
revenue last year of $173.5 million. TLC itself
reported only $63 million in fiscal 1986.
What's the secret? Just the determination of a
Black man to succeed. TLC’s founder, Mr.
Reginald F. Lewis, is a former corporate attorney
who became tired with working for others and
founded TLC just four years ago. At 44, he is mak-
ing the big plunge because he is confident in
himself and can command respect in the high-
stakes financial community which must back his
acquisition venture. He is a Black man whose
foulige where it matters is enough to warm one’s
eart.
Still On Wrong Course
Mr. Jorge Valdes, the lone Hispanic member of
the Metro commission, has announced he is drop-
ping his demand that Dade voters be given an op-
portunity to say whether the hotly-disputed Anti-
Bilingual Ordinance should be repealed. His an-
nouncement came in the wake of tremendous
community pressure. But while such pressure has
forced him to back away, it has not persuaded
him to drop the matter altogether. Now he is say-
ing he will demand that the Metro commission
itself scrap the ordinance, which the commission
can do.
In this way, Mr. Valdes is avoiding being label-
ed as divisive, while passing the buck squarely to
his colleagues at Metro Center. They must be
squirming, because they cannot afford to alienate
the Hispanic voters, nor can they be seen to be
pronouncing on a matter which has been clearly
deemed divisive. Their best bet will be to let Mr.
Valdes know in no uncertain terms that the whole
business of digging up the hysteria over bil-
ingualism puts him on the wrong track.
This just is not the time to seek to tackle the con-
troversial ordinance, for there is too entrenched a
belief at this time that the Hispanic community
merely wants to further dominate a county in
which their numerical strength is rapidly grow-
ing, thanks to the generosity of the federal
government which eagerly laps up the
Republican votes it provides. The Hispanic com-
munity still has to demonstrate that it has an in-
tention to move more fully into the mainstream of
America, rather than trying to use its numbers to
bring about a change in this area’s cultural pat-
terns.

The Politics Of Ethnicity In Miami
By Raymond A. Mohl
*Fourth in a series
Ethnicity has becomeanimportant ingredient in the maki ng
of public policy in the Miami metropolitian area. The ongoing
controversy over bilingualism provides a case in point. In
1973, reflecting the demographic changes in South Florida, the
Metro Commission made Dade County officially bilingual. As
a result, most Metro agencies hired Hispanics to serve
Spanish-speaking residents. Official documents were publish-
ed in English and Spanish, and informational signs were made
bilingual. These moves paralleled the introduction of some bil-
ingual programs in the Dade County school system, which re-
quired English-speaking elementary children to study
Spanish.
Anglo opposition to bilingualism boiled to the surface in 1980,
during the Mariel boatlift. An Anglo group named Citizens of
Dade United, used the petition process to force a county
referendum on a proposed anti-bilingualism ordinance.
Ironically, the petition drive was led by a multilingual Russian
Jewish immigrant to the United States who said she *‘didn’t
feel like an American anymore’ in Dade County. The key sec-
tion of the ordinance proposed that: ‘ ‘The expenditure of coun-
ty funds for the purpose of utilizing any language other than
English, or promoting any culture other than that of the
United States is prohibited. All county government meetings,
hearings, and publications shall be in the English language on-
ly.
Various Hispanic groups, especially the Spanish-American
League Against Discrimination, fought the proposed anti-
bilingualism ordinance, and the newspapers editorialized
against it. Nevertheless, in Nov. 1980, as the massive Mariel
boatlift was coming to an end, a substantial majority of Dade
County voters approved the anti-bilingual ordinance in a
highly-charged election. The bilingualism issue reflected a
new sort of ethnic polarization in Miami, one no doubt inten-
sified by the enormous influx of new Cubans earlier in the
year.
Bul this was not the end of the language controversy. In
some Miami area municipalities, the inability of political can-
didates to speak English has become a campaign issue. One
large U.S. corporation stirred up a hornet ’s nest by prohibiting
Hispanic employees in Miami from speaking Spanish at work.
. .Other firms refuse to hire workers who cannot speak Spanish.
Hispanic politicians keep pushing for repeal of the anti-
bilingualism ordinance, and they have formed a new organiza-
tion called English Plus to promote bilingual education. Mili-
tant Anglos have jumped on the bandwagon of U.S. English,
the Washington lobby pushing a constitutional amendment to
make English the official language of the United States. The
Florida English Campaign, an affliliated group seeking a state
constitutional amendment for the same purpose, has strong
support among Anglos in Miami.
The language issue is highly emotional in Miami. The
Cubans and other Hispanics have shown little inclination to
abandon their native Spanish. In particular, linguistic scholar
Melvin C. Resnick has written, because Spanish is used exten-
sivelyin‘‘high domains’’' such as government and business, as
well as in such ‘‘low domains†as the family, the language re-
mains ‘‘instrumentally valuable.†The widespread use of
Spanish in business and government, consequently, has many
non-Hispanics worried.
Language specialists, moreover, have noted that Spanish
has been the most persistent of all foreign languages across
several generations in the United States. This certainly seems
tobe true for Miami. The 1980 census demonstrated that about
64 percent of Miami's population above the age of 5 speak a
language other than English at home. Almost 54 percent of
those using other languages in the home were also fluent in
English, so Spanish was clearly the language of choice for
those families.
Independent research studies have reinforced the census
data on language. A Dade County study in 1980 reported that
less than one percent of Cuban children in Miami “used
English as the first language between parents and children.â€
Another study in 1983 of 600 Latin families revealed that only
Spanish was used in 89.2 percent of Latin homes; 2.6 percent
ee

Bilingual Issue Reflects New Kind Of Polarization
used English and 8.2 percent used both languages. These and
other studies have demonstrated that Spanish remains domi-
nant among Miami Cubans, and that it probably has been
strengthened by the recent Mariel refugee influx.
The continual replenishment of the Hispanic community
over 25 years, and the likelihood that Florida's Hispanic
population will triple in size by the year 2000, suggests a
linguistic permanence for Spanish unlike that of eariler ethnic
mother tongues.
Federal immigration policy has also stirred ugly ethnic pas-
sions. Blacks and Anglos alike criticized the federal inaction
that permitted the 1980 Mariel boatlift, and then failed to pay
for the costs of refugee resettlement in south Florida. Tensions
rose in late 1984, when the Immigration and Naturalization
Service (INS) announced that the Mariel Cubans would be per-
mitted to seek residency status. This decision, along with a
simultaneous agreement with Cuba normalizing immigration,
ultimately would have permitted as many as 300,000 Cubans to
join relatives in Florida.
A great debate began on the local radio talk shows, whose
hosts organized a new ethnic outfit, Save Our South Florida
(SOS), to lobby against the INS immigration decision. The
Hispanic radio talk shows militantly argued their own side of
the issue. However, the start-up of Radio Marti, an anti-Castro
radio station in Miami, led Cuba to abrogate the immigration
pact, putting off the next big wave of Cuban immigration to
some indefinite time. By the summer of 1986, change was in
the wind once again, as the start of informal negotiations bet-
ween the United States and Cuba suggested that the immigra-
tion agreement might soon be reinstated.
There is an undeniable political dimension to these debates
over immigration policy. Florida Democrats accused the
Reagan administration of speeding the naturalization of the
Cubans as a means of boosting the Republican Party in the
state. The INS rejected charges of politicization of immigra-
tion policy, but Republican leaders readily admitted the
newly-naturalized Cubans would dramatically increase their
political clout in Florida. When 14,200 immigrants, mostly
Cubans, became citizens on July 4, 1986, at a massive
naturalization ceremony in Miami's Orange Bowl, the Dade
County Republican Party was surely delighted.
These controversies over bilingualism and immigration on-
ly begin to suggest how public policy issues have generated
ethnic tension in Miami. Governmental decision-making on
many other issues has also raised the level of ethnic political
controversy. In 1981, for instance, White community organiza-
tions protested the location of low-cost public housing in their
up-scale Kendall neighborhood, forcing the Metro Commission
to abandon the project; Blacks were outraged. In 1983, in a
‘move aimed at Mariel refugees, the Miami Beach city com-
mission passed an ordinance requiring refugees and their
sponsors to register with the police; now Hispanics were
outraged, and the measure was soon rescinded.
In 1985, middle-class Blacks organized public protest and
took legal action to prevent the construction of a new sports
stadium in north Dade County which, they claimed, would
destroy ther neighborhood. White business leaders and politi-
cians were annoyed that the Blacks would not go along with
the new sports plan. All of these public policy issues, and
numerous others, generally pit Miami's racial and ethnic
groups against one another, and the battle usually are fought
out in the public arena.

Taking The Voucher Proposal Further
WASHINGTON— Supporters of education vouchers, con-
vinced that choice and competiton are the keys to genuine
education reform, will love what Norman Macrae has to say
on the subject. Teachers’ unions and other opponents of
vouchers, who see the idea as elitist and destructive of public
education, will deplore it.
Voucher agnostics (and I include myself)
might find that the proposal not only
answers most doubts but also makes sense
on issues they've never much thought
about.
Although his piece (in the London
Economist last September) is about British
school, Macrae knows a good deal about
America’s public-education problem and
more than most Americans about the best
of the voucher experiments. His conclusion
is that what public education needs is:
Vouchers-plus.
The key features of his scheme include:
* The schools should be run not by local authorities but by
boards consisting primarily of parents of current enrollees.
* A school’s budget would be based on the number of pupils it
was able to attract: a per-semester ‘‘capitation fee†base on
current costs and, therefore, requiring no new outlays.
e Enrollment would be open; parents could send a child to
any school that would accept him.
Since the latter two features might come into conflict (a
superior school might reject underachieving or troublesome
youngsters), capitation payments would be higher for the
most-rejected categories of students, highest for the 5 percent
or so thought to be unschoolable. Even the worst youngsters
might get into the school of his choice if he brought with him a
big enough voucher.
Not that all parents would want their children in the
equivalent of the Bronx High School of Science. Indeed, says

Macrae, Britain has made the mistake of copying the
American notion of trying to provide essentially the same
college-oriented education for all children, hoping that the
lower achievers would be leveled up (while trying to allay the
fears of more affluent parents that their high-achieving
youngsters would be leveled down).
His proposal would follow the West German model, which
has only about a quarter of students attending the college-prep
Gymnasium. A third attend Realschule—a technical or voca-
tional school that typically leads to an apprenticeship. That
still leaves nearly half of the West German youngsters to at-
tend Hauptschule, the lowest of the three tracks. But a tenth of
these manage to pass the Realschule exams and gain their
technical apprenticeships and fully 80 percent leave Haupt-
schule and move either into an apprenticeship or a permanent
job.
But wouldn't such a three-track system prove unacceptable
to American parents who, after all, want only the best for their
children? Macrae answers with a quotation from the authors
of “Save Our Schools†:
“The argument about which type of schooling should be im-
posed would all become meaningless in a system which allow-
ed proliferation. . . The choices of parents would determine not
only the policy for each individual schod. They would, by
deciding where to send their children, determine the overall
patterns of education which resulted.â€
No doubt the greatest resistance to Macrae’s scheme—both
here and in Britain—would be over ‘‘capitation’’ and his pro-
posal to allow parent-dominated school boards to decide what
salary to offer to attract any particular teacher. But for
Macrae, that flexibility is vital.
Under the present system, he argues, bad teachers earn as
much as good ones, and ‘‘teachers in yesterday’s subjects
earn as much money as scarce teachers of mathematics,
physics and modern languages—even in boom areas where
other job opportunities for the 2 percent of Britons properly
educated in mathematics abound.â€
The results include a shortage of high-tech teachers and a
drain of teachers from London.
“This anti-working-class system stays in being,’ says:
Macrae, ‘‘because the teachers’ unions see it as the way to
keep themselves and their restrictive practices in power.â€

Meet Harper Sibley Of SWSS And The Ocean Reef Club
It’s been almost a year now since we held our first Sibley
Weekend Success Seminars (SWSS) at the posh Ocean Reef
Club at Key Largo. Ocean Reef is a place where the rich and
ultra-rich play and relax. Yachts 35 to 90-foot line the marina;
the parking lots are filled with luxury-model European and
Americanimade cars. Most guests are members of the club
and, yes, there are Black club members as -._...... . =
well. The members own their ‘‘cabins,’’ but § _—
they are so well appointed that they would
rival accomodations at the ritziest hotel
Harper Sibley owns the Ocean Reef Club. *
On a weekend this month, the second
SWSS will be held. Though this writer was a
key player in the creation of the first SWSS
weekend, I didn’t write about it because its
benefactor, Harper Sibley, did not want
anyone to misread his intent as to the uni-
que experience that was held Aug. 1-3, 1986,
at Ocean Reef.
It was, my friends, news indeed. SWSS brought over 100
inner-city Black, Hispanic and White youngsters to a White,
beautiful-people club for a three-day weekend and all the prin-
cipals treated the event like nothing special was happening.
The staff served the kids with the same courtesy and class
they bestowed on paying club members. While the guests were
a ‘‘tad’ different from those who usually frequented the club,
Ocean Reef, Harper Sibley and the very fine staff maintained
a business-as-usual approach.
Let me begin at the beginning.
This is a story you need to hear. In 1986, I briefly visited the
Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce’s Goals Conference,
which was held at Ocean Reef. My schedule only permitted me
six hours of participation on a Saturday, but Larry Adams, the
VP of Florida Power and Light, was taking the helm and I
wanted to show my support for him. I believe this was the last
weekend in June. It was an exciting and axhilirating six hours
and gave birth to SWSS.
During the lunch break, I was sitting on what I now know
was Buccaneer Island with Larry Adams and A.D. Moore of
the County Manager's staff. Larry called Harper Sibley over
to the table and introduced him to me with the words,
‘‘Harper, dd boy, you know that project you've been trying to
launch for three years, dealing with Black youth? Well, here's
someone who will get it off the ground for you.â€
Needless to say, I gazed with more than just curiosity at the
man who was pulling out a chair to sit down.
Harper Sibley is probably a multi-millionaire. You would
never surmise that from the way he looked. He did not fit the
Fortune 500 profile in the least. Yeah, we use stereotypes, too,
and they are just as wrong as those held about us.
My Way By O.R. Dathorne
We had a round of daiquiris as Harper's guests. By this time,
Carole Ann Taylor had joined us. We continued to get ac-
quainted. Then Harper began talking softly about his desire to
help poor, under-achieving kids break out of the ghetto. His
voice dropped as he talked about his desire to provide hope to
disenchanted young people who had long ceased to strive.
While he had been smiling and affable when he first sat
down, he was dead serious as he spoke of his project. Here was
a man I might have pegged as one of the ‘‘good ole boys,†sit-
ting there telling me that he felt that the reason so many kids
were dropping out of school was that nobody was talking to
them about their dreams, about entrepreneurship, about self-
discipline, and direction.
Harper Sibley talked about wanting to give young people,
especially those who were Black, something to aim for, to help
them set goals, to become aware of the joys success and per-
sonal achievement can bring if they only hang in and fight.
As Harper eloquently expressed his desire to change the life
equation for as many young people as he could and us Ocean
Reef as the focal paint, Russell Post. the president of the club,
joined us. He said, “Harper, are you still trying to get your pet
project off the ground?â€
It seems that for the three years preceding the 1986 Goals
Conference, Harper had approached three other Black leaders
to take on the project. While he had the idea and the
wherewithal to make the project a reality, he didn’t have a
plan and didn’t know where to begin. He was on the verge of
giving up on the notion as a bad idea.
To be sure, my friends, I was a bit skeptical. What, indeed,
would being at Ocean Reef do for poor Black kids? Wouldn't it
make them feel just that much more inadequate? In spite of
my skepticism, I could not fail to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity and let the young people at least have the experience.
I came home and structured a plan for the first weekend at
Ocean Reef. Two weeks after the Goals Conference, I went
back to Key Largo with A.D. Moore. We met with Russell Post,
who would ride herd on the project until it was completed. He
was an absolutely delightful personto work with. He spared no
expense and invoked no special restrictions, other than those
related to safety.
The plan was approved and we moved into high gear. As
chairperson of the Dade County Public Schools District
Dropout Prevention Council, I involved Dr. Leonard Britton,
then superintendent, and the Dropout Department in the pro-
cess. Mary Vereen and Annie Smith were the representatives
of the school board. Russell Post invited Barbara Gothard, of
Burger King, and a few others to join the committee.
Due to a previous connection, Barbara was able to bring the
Youth At Risk program and the Cities In School Program into
the process. We were 45 days away from the target date of
Garvey’s Anniversary
Editor's Note: The 100th birth anniversary of Marcus
Garvey occurred on Tuesday amid a resurgence of interest in
this Black hero.
* hk hk x
Garvey has joined the myriad figures of Black legend who
have merged partly with our history and partly with our
folklore. I do not pretend that all academicians respond to
Garvey the way that I do, but I am confident that Garvey
perplexes us all. For, even in his own time, the dubious role
which W.E.B. Dubois played in his extradition is still to be
thoroughly investigated. For since Garvey RR
was obviously not one of the ‘talented
tenth’’, did this therefore make him dispen-
sable and disposable? Or was there the
lingering suspicion then, as now, that, like
Stokely, Malcolm and Farrakhan, these
“island people’’ were overstepping their
mark?
Interestingly enough, Garvey’ appeared
on the U.S. scene at the time of their |%
greatest devotion to Blackness, or as Arna [Â¥
Bontemps had called the Harlem
Dathomn
Renaissance, ‘another time when Black was beautiful.†Yet,
Ellison did not find Garvey beautiful: Ras the Ex-
horter/Destroyer, that destructive figure who inhabits the lat-
ter pages of the Invisible Man, is an iconoclast. Ellison has
denied that this figure is Garvey, but his rebuttal rings hollow.
Garvey is denounced for his refusal to compromise, and to
come to terms with so-called American reality.
To understand this is to clearly realize that Garvey's
Blacker-than-thou credo clearly embarrassed the Black
establishment. Forthey, writers and artists, from theU.S. and
the Caribbean, had established an ironical frame of stylistic
reference. They would attack everything European, but do in
in the manner of the European. This might seem too sweeping
a generalization of both the Harlem Renaissance and
Negritude, but, in a specific way, Langston Hughes, Counter
Cuillen and Claud McKay, on the one hand, and Senghor,
Damas and Cesaire, on the other, demonstrate just this. They
wished, perhaps had, tobe accepted by the White world. From
the onset, therefore, Garvey's ideology runs counter to theirs.
He offers no compromise, no tryst; instead, he challenges.
Therefore the United Negro Improvement Association
(UNIA) is unlike DuBois's Niagra Movement, the Urban
League, or even A. Philip Randolph’s ‘‘Brotherhood of Sleep-
ing Car Porters.’’ Perhaps what Garvey attempted was an ex-
tension of Black Jamaica into the U.S. Within the confines of
an island, possibilities loom large. A poor Black boy could
become governor, as he did in our own life-time. Garvey
foresaw this, and with his horse and helmet, affirmed the only
authority figure he knew — the colonial overlord. There is a

supreme irony involved in this usurpation of authority.
Yel Garvey’s postures did have obvious contradictions. The
“Governor†did not yearn for England (as our poets of the
time did). Instead, he had a clear and resolute plan to make a
physical journey forward in time to his place of origin. And
this vision inspired huge crowds, not coffee-table intellectuals,
not what DuBois had termed ‘‘the better class of Negroes,â€
but all Blacks at the lower rungs of society who sought to af-
firm a faith. So, whereas Pan-Africanism remained a
theoretical dream with gala get-togethers in European cities,
Garveyism was pragmatic and pointed. For the “White Star
Line,†Garvey substituted the “Black Star Line,†and he
began to enact what Paul Cuffee had donein 1815, and John B.
Russwurm was to state in the March 17, 1929 issue of
Freedom's Journal: “Our Rightful Place is Africa.â€
Garvey belongs therefore not to an association of theoreti-
cians but to a pragmatic band of doers. If there are Black
American intellectuals who are his forerunners, then in addi-
tion to Cuffee and Russwurm, his ancestors are the Rev.
Henry Highland Garnet, who, in a speech in 1843, urged
violence against the slave-master, or Alexander Crummell, or
Martin R. Delaney, a Harvard-educated physcan, who left for
Liberia.
Garvey'’s practical act of separatism, the journey forward to
Africa, arose also out of reaction against the skewered
unintellectual mouthings only a few decades before him. For
instance, John H. Van Evrie’s White Supremacy and Negro
Subordination (1867) argued, with a surprising degree of folly,
that Blacks ought not to be educated, sincetheforce of gravity
would force them to walk in a stooped posture. Josiah Nott in
Types of Mankind (1854) clearly stated that there had never
been a Black culture of any significance, and Charles Carell,
as late as 1900, in The Negro as Beast argues that Blacks have
been created for ‘‘service to the White man.†Against this
backdrop, not unnaturally the KKK and Garvey found com-
mon cause — the children of Africa would, in modern
Rastafari parlance, leave Babylon and seek the Promised
Land.
Yet Africa remained for the New World intellectual an idea,
not a reality; a dream, never a consciousness; a myth; one
could even romanticize it. But the touch was deadly, as
Richard Wright later realized when, in Ghana, as if tethered to
a colonial hog-pen, he still yearned for the boulevards of Paris.
I have often argued that this is not difficult to understand, for
the landscape of the writer had been charted in Europe.
Garvey’s true significance is that he dared expose the
hypocrisy of the academia. He knew in a final and complete
endeavor, that faith lay in the absolute rejection of the spoils
of the Western World. To do this he revieved myths so that he
could answer the many interrogatives which were part of the
Black American's quest for self-knowledge and understan-
ding.
When we teach Garvey, we reveal a submerged side to
ourselves, our peers and our students. Yet we have to go
beyond the chaos of our formulae to re-instruct our masters,
and let them know, once and for all, that we exist, we breathe,
we hear and we dream. As we seek out our new frontiers, we
realize what Garvey had long known: that in order to find
ourselves we must return constantly to navel-cord and
graveside.
The former links us with life, the latter with after-life. We
are only truly educated when we know that there are real
Africans singing in our veins. As academid ans, our task is to
let those songs be heard.
Aug. 1. Some doubted that such an ambitious undertaking
could be brought to fruition with so little lead time. .
Due to Russell’s commitment to the project and the com mit-
tee’s diligent work (Dr. Sharon Thomas of Miami-Dade put
together our Mentor-Mentee component), the young people
who came to the first weekend were well served.
Of course, the success of the Ocean Reef experience must be
shared. Larry Adams, of course, served as midwife to the
birth of the program by bringing Harper and me together.
Along the way, a lot of other good people wanted to be involv-
ed
I told Dick Turici, the Regional Vice President of
Entemann’s Bakery, of the program and he and Roger Broder
provided 130 boxes of the most delicious cakes and cookies for
the children’s ride-home goody bags. I told Tom Ferguson, of
the Beacon Council, of our need for books for each child to
own. Through his efforts, each young person received either a
copy of “Think And Grow Rich,†by Napoleon Hill, or “The
Magic of Thinking Big.â€
These are two of the most quoted books when successful per-
sons of whatever ethnicity are asked about the factors in their
lives that had the greatest impact on their success. The
Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce put together a get-to-
. know-your-city kind of package, including a frisbee, and
Burger King, through Barbara's efforts, saw to it that every
participant received a free Whopper card, good at any Burger
King at any time.
I am still a part of the committee this year and I don’t know
all of those who are now or have been involved in the planning.
I do know that the original purpose was to bring young people
to Ocean Reef who wanted to overcome some of the obstacles
that confronted them as a reward for effort. I know that it was
directed primarily at Black youth, but included others.
From some comments I've heard this year, there are those
who want to see equal numbers of Black, White and Hispanic
kids included or to have separate SWSS programs for each
ethnic group. This last idea is dead in the water because
Harper does not believe in divisive strategies.
As to equal numbers, we have to look at the fact that our
children are not dropping out in equal numbers, they are not
unemployed in equal numbers; with Blacks representing 67
percent of youthful offenders in jail, they are not reaching the
end of the line in equal numbers.
If all of the bad things of our society are disproportionately
impacting Black youth negatively, does one of the few uplif-
ting strategies available have to be equal, when nothing else
is?
Hats off to Harper Sibley for doggedly pursuing his idea. The
weekend costs at least $100,000 and he’s committed to doing it
as long as there are people who are willing to make it happen.
The same is true of Russell Post, who has to be the most laid-
back, unflappable man around.
Carole Ann Taylor, entrepreneur and A.D. Moore and young
Dewey Knight, who was one of the peer counselors last year
and joined the committee this year with full responsibility for
those 18 to 25- year-olds who will serve as counselors this year
are all ready to go.
Ithink we should thank everyone for their effort and I hope I
didn’t miss anyone’s contribution who made it happen. Oh, I
almost forgot the major thrust of the weekend: to find each
child someone who would listen to them. Each child was
assigned a Mentor. Over 125 young professionals showed up at
Ocean Reef on Sunday morning to meet their Mentees. Many
of them maintained contact throughout the year.
For the most part, some would call them Yuppies or Buppies
or even Huppies, but they were loving, caring, giving, supp-
porting friends to the young people they took under their
wings, and they are to be commended highly for wanting to
give so much.
Well, Harper will probably feel a little uncomfortable about
my telling all of this. (What else is new? I stay in hot water.)
He didn’t do it for the praise or appreciation; he did it
because he believes in our young people and wants to help
them get the most out of life. In my books, he is a ‘‘Brother.â€â€™
(A special thanks to Kerry Metruska, of Ocean Reef, who
handled the logistics of the experience. He is only 24 and he did
a magnificent job.)
Those who want to write Harper or Russell, send your letters
to Ocean Reef Club, Key Largo, FL.
Thanks, Harper and Russell. Let’s move on.

Commentary
There Is Urgent Need For Voter- Registration Reform
By Norman Hill
There IS a spectre haunting our democracy. It threatens to
dilute the life-blood of our political process and widen the
chasm between those who govern and those who are governed
That spectre is disenfranchisement.
Today, a little over a year before a critical national election
millions in this country—a high percentage poor and
minority—are not registered to vote. And
while apathy is surely part of the problem,
much of the blame for this disturbing reali-
ty must fall on the often Byzantine and anti-
quated voting-registration procedures in
many states around the country.
In Illinois, for example, anyone wishing to
be a deputized registrar must be a certified
member of a community group. Moreover,
deputies must undergo a two-hour training §
program at one given site (an inconvenient
practice), and then be redeputized and go 1184,
through the program again the following election year. In In-
diana, deputies are given only a limited amount of serially-
numbered forms that must be filled out in sequence and then
returned to order to get more forms. Massachusetts has a very
restrictive deputization procedure because it leaves the choice
to the discretion of officials who have a vested interest in who
gets deputized. In Louisiana, potential voters have to register
in a central location.
In Texas, Gov. William Clements recently vetoed two voter-
registration reform laws, one of which would have allowed
state employees and other deputy registrars to submit
The Gantt Column
registration forms by mail rather than deliver them in person
to the election clerk within five days of completion. The other
measure would have changed the state’s practice of removing
tens of thousands of voters from the voting rolls just before
each general election. In some states, election officials open
their offices only 20 hours per week, all during hours when
most potential voters are working. Other states have un-
necessarily cumbersome procedures.
There are states that have streamlined registration pro-
cedures. Minnesota, Maine and Wisconsin allow registration
on election day. Twenty-three states have mail-in registration.
Several have enacted far-reaching agency-based registration
laws designed to provide voter-registration services in all
state agencies that serve the public. Nevada, for example,
recently passed a law that will assist all citizens who come in
contact with the motor vehicle bureau to become registered
voters in the same transaction.
Clearly, voter-registration law reform must be a top priority
in states whose laws have the practical effect of inhibiting
broad participation in the electoral process. One obvious solu-
tion would be for states to have simple, self-executing forms
widely available in government agencies (post offices,
libraries, traffic courts, etc.), and personnel to assist citizens
who need help in filling them out. The registration form can be
a check-off on other forms, such as driver's license applica-
tions, tax forms, et. al. Statewide computerization of registra-
tion rolls would also greatly simplify verification.
Yet, merely mandating simplified procedures is not enough.
States must also ensure vigorous enforcement mechanisms
along with new laws. California state law requires that county

Black Press Must Lead The Way
In addition to the controversies surrounding Black sports
figures like Isiah Thomas and the White sports press. there is
a more widespread anger by Blacks about the White press and
subsequently more reasoning why the Black community
should seek to better plead their own causes by supporting or
starting Black media institutions.
Let me explain.
Many people in our community are oppos-
ed to the current trend of the White press to
negatively stereotype Black people. White
reporters refer to White people who have
broken the law as “offenders†while Black
lawbreakers are ‘‘criminals’’, White
athletes are “mentally tough and instinc-
tive’ while Black ball players are
“animalistic or bull-like'.
Nowadays, just to place the adjective
Black’ onto something lowers its value
and makes it less desirable. What about a ‘‘Black™
neighborhood as opposed to a *‘nighbrohood’’. a Black school
as opposed to a school, a Black lover as’opposed to a lover,
Black music as opposed to music?
Once the White press adds ‘Black’ onto something, it takes
ona totally different meaning.
To the White press, problems in gur community only become
problems when those same probigms hit the White communi-
Speaking Out BY T. Willard Fair
ty. When Richard Pryor almost got burned while freebasing, it
was just something Richard Pryor did. Now that little White
girls are cruising through the ghettos looking for crack, smok-
ing cocaine is as serious as cancer.
The White press sometimes acts as if Whites are civilized
and Blacks live in caves, when, not too long ago, it was the
other way around.
But don’t blame The Miami Herald, the Tampa Tribune or
the St. Petersburg Times. They are doing what they should do:
promote their race.
Young journalists must remember: who is going to speak
out strongly about issues that affect your people if you don't?
Who is going to support the people struggling for freedom for
your people if you don't? And who in the hell is going to in-
crease the level of awareness about their true status and true
destiny if you don't?
Another reason that we catch so much hell is because we
lack the ability to communicate with each other. People in
Miami often-times don't know what the hell is happening in
Tampa: Tallahassee doesn't know what's going onin Jackson-
ville. Did you know that there has been civil unrest in
Sarasota’s Black community this vear? I told you don’t know
what's happening.
Let's welcome America’s Black journalists to Florida. And
let's show them the journalists in Florida are not afraid to
stand up and write what's right.
Time Now
As you drive through certain parts of Miami, the political
message is prominently displayed: “TIME NOW FOR AR-
THUR."
The red, white and blue bus benches make it patriotically
clear that someone who looks like me is running to be the
Mayor of the City of Miami. And I am sure that as the mayoral
contest picks up steam, “TIME NOW FOR tgp 7
ARTHUR" will be viewed from every con-
ceivable vantage point. However, seeing the
message is one thing: understanding its
subtle implications is another.
When I first saw it, I didn’t see it. I didn’t
see it, not because I wasn’t looking, but
because it was overshadowed by the can-
didate’s picture and the bold printed word
“TEELE.â€
It is very basic for the candidate’s picture
to appear on his advertisements. Of course, Fair
the late John Plummer was the exception. It is also very smart
10 send as many voter-enticing messages as the space or time
will spare, on each advertisement.
The best one I can recall was one used by Bill Oliver several
vears ago, when he ran for the campaign slogan. Clearly,
Bill's slogan sent a message to tradesmen and non-tradesmen.
However, Art Teele’'s slogan leaves me confused. “TIME
NOW FOR ARTHUR?" could mean that the candidate is try-
ing to tell me that two years ago, when he publicly talked
about running, but decided not to, the decision not to was bas-
ed on the conclusion that it was not Arthur's time; or maybe
his slogan is telling me that its Arthur’s time and everybody
else's time is after his; or maybe the slogan originated not
from Arthur but from others. And they declared that it was
time to run someone who looks like me for Mayor. And Arthur,
being a good and accommodating citizen, decided to.
selfishlessly honor their wishes.
decided to unselfishly honor their wishes.
Maybe, just maybe, “TIME NOW FOR ARTHUR" is
another way of saying, “IT'S OUR TIME.†Recognizing the
need to gain acceptance and respect from those who look like
me, but, at a same time, not taking the risk of being accused of
running an ethnic — polarization campaign, using Arthur
rather than “US†might work. Confusing? Yes, By design?
Yes.
Two years ago, when Mr. Teele made some public pro-
nouncements about running for Mayor, he concluded that it
was his time. Others, who look like me, also felt that it was not
his time, because he hadn't paid any dues. Others said it could
never be his time, because he was a Republican. And when
there was yours truly; he said his time would never come,
because he wasn't Black enough.
For Arthur?
I am sure that all of the aforementioned reasons are still
prevalent in the minds of some. Needless to say, as we get
closer and closer to election, they will surface and become just
as pronounced as Mr. Teele’s bus benches are. However, their
surfacing doesn’t disturb me. What does disturb me is that Mr.
Teele was aware of the concerns, but spent notime in the past
two years addressing them.
“Paying dues’’ is important to many of us. Mr. Teele should
know that. And he should have systematically, in the past two
vears, sent the message for all concerned to evaluate that he
had paid, was paying and will continue to pay his dues.
Republicans are about as popular in Liberty City as Cam-
munism is in Little Havana. And having paid no dues, plus be-
ing a Republican, puts you in a position of double jeoparady
with folks who looks like me. I don’t want to suggest that Mr.
Teele, who used to be a Democrat, should have palitically-
expediently switched parties, again. But I do believe that he
should have made every effort to let it be known that it ain't
the party, but the cause.
Democrats and Republicans, who are colored, are simply
Democrats and Republicans. And anybody who looks like me
and believes that we are in the mess we are in because of
Ronald Reagan is naive. We are poor when Democrats control
the White House and we are poorer when Republicans control
it. Only a fool would make an issue over ‘‘degrees of poverty.â€
Paying dues and party affiliation are but two of the three im-
portant concerns facing “It’s Art Teele Time." The third one
is ‘‘Is He Black Enough?â€
Blackness is pigmentation; it's attitude, and it's behavior.
Mr. Teele's picture on his advertisements deals with the issue
of pigmentation. His slogan, inspite of whatever it means, and
only he and his advisors know, consciously or unconsciously
addresses his attitude and behavior about and towards us.
“IT'S TIME FOR ARTHUR" means that because he has
decided that it is his time and we must accept his decision and
behavior accordingly, then such a position speaks to a person
who believes that we are niggers or colored Republicans. And
finally, “IT'S TIME FOR ARTHUR," is really another way of
saying, “IT'S OUR TIME," which is supposed to mean that
it's time for somebody who looks like me to be the Mayor of
Miami. That's too important a position to be disguised. But if
vou want to make sure that folks who don’t look like me don't
misinterpret your messages to me, you won't clearly identify
with me. Aninability to identify with me make the probabilty
of behaving for me very limited. Therefore, when its time to be
Black, you can't help but be colored.
Before I would take the risk of letting any of this happen. I
simply won't ride the bus. MAYBE SOME OTHER TIME AR-
THUR, BUT NOT NOW.
officals responsible tor voter registration carry out attir-
mative outreach programs designed to remedy under-
representation in the electorate by identifiable groups. Yet,
recently, an appeals court found that Los Angeles County of-
ficial's failure to comply with the law ‘““clearly resulted from
their total lack of consideration of and apparent indifference
to the problem of low registration among the poor and non-
Whites.â€
In the past, Blacks and other minorities were effectively
disenfranchised in certain states by poll taxes, literacy tests,
and other measures specifically designed to keep them from
voting. Today, those practices have been abolished. Yet, many
states persist in making it unreasonably difficult for people to
register to vote. In fact, the United States is the only Western
democracy that requires citizens to register to vote. Restric-
tive voter-registration laws fly in the face of the ideal of
universal suffrage that, in principle, underpins our
democracy.
Hollywood Welfare
Fourth in a series
There are wild cries for welfare reform in this country
amid the hysteria of the co-called new conservative mood.
Everyone talks of welfare cheats but one never hears the
real-estate industry, the clothing industry, the food industry
or the medical profession attacking the welfare system
because they get most of the money. Welfare is as much a
subsidy to those interests as it isto men, women and children
who are the focal beneficiaries of the system.
Those who benefit most from welfare never complain.
Hollywood has a welfare system of its own wherein reci-
pients get a stipend for work that is mostly non-productive.
Though a major part of Hollywood's welfare system
manifests itself in feather-bedded jobs. the most glaring ex-
istence of welfare in the film world is in the so-called area
known as development.
Development is a broadly-based term which involves ideas,
stories, scripts, productions and like things optioned or
bought by studios and production companies with the stated
intent of nurturing to the point of being a finished movie ready
for distribution and making money. The major studios each
spend between $10 million to $20 million yearly for develop
ment. That is well over $100 million per year, but few of the ef-
forts ever appear on the screen. Even the few that do have a
78 percent failure ratio. Yes, 78 percent of the over 400 movies
a year released in Hollywood lose moriey.
The normal time it takes between the presentation of a
story or idea to producing the film is 18 months. During that
time, money has been dispensed and people have been paid.
Annually, studios carry 100 to 200 projects in developmemt
month after month.
A leading official of a major studio was quoted in an article
in the Los Angeles Times in late Sept. 1986 on the subject of
Hollywood's development game. He said, ‘It's by far the
least efficient part of the movie business. It is simply indefen-
sible.â€
A chart accompanying the above-mentioned article listed
projects in development as of Sept. 25, last year for 10 studios.
The projects ranged from Warner Brothers with a high of 250
to Orion with a low of 17. Warner Brothers had 30 projects
beginning with the letter ‘‘M†alone. That figure equals the
full development package of the Cannon Group, second-
lowest in development projects.
Collectively, the 10 studios had 907 projects at various
stages of development. They had already released 156 pic-
tures and, of those released, 94 were pictures developed in-
house; 62 of the pictures were picked up from other sourcs.
Using figures from the chart, we have devised release-to-
development ratio for each studio based upon the facts of the
momment.
The Cannon Group, which has developed 21 of its 26 releases
in-house and only 36 projects in development, has the highest
ratio: 70 percent.
Orion, which has developed eight of its 12 releases in-house
and has 17 projects in development, was a distant second with
47 percent.
From there, there is a big drop down to 11 percent with Col-
umbia, Paramount and Universal lumped together at that
ratio.
Disney is next, with eight percent, followed by Tri Star 7
percent, MGM/UA (6.6 percent) and 20th Century Fox with a
low of 4 percent. :
These figures are cited to show the low percentage of frui-
tion of those projects started in the first place. This leads to
the real point.
Less than 30 of the projects in development are Black pro-
jects, Warner Brothers has more projects that start with the
letter “Mâ€â€™ than all these studios combined have in Black
movies.
Another major point is that less than 50 of the projects have
a major Black character.
Considering the low ratio of development to production, the
studios are saying to Black America that they don’t intend to
make Black movies or movies with major Black characters
in them.
If America asks Blacks to look at movies with all Anglo
casts, why can’t it ask Anglos to look at movies with all-Black
casts?
To be fair, development does serve a planning and develop-
ment function for the industry. It does serve to develop rela-
tionships with new and emerging talent with potential to be
nurtured into productive future relationships.
Even with this being true, the absence of Blacks with a fair
share of the development money is a revealing sign that the
movie studios don’t want to do business with Blacks except at
the box office as ticket buyers.
The limited and few development deals extended to Blacks
are cheap and under rigid control in contrast to those deals
routinely given to Anglos. Blacks are stifled, hassled and
under pressure not to fail, when most of the Anglos do fail.
Tied into some of the deals are professional development
leeches who are the film counterpart to the so-called welfare
cheat. These people live ‘ind thrive on give-away paychecks

Agencies Will Pitch In To Kee
By April Young
A benefit show featuring
talented performers, in-
cluding Miami Vice star
Philip Michael Thomas, is not
the only help two housing pro-
ject grocery stores will soon
receive.
Citicorp Savings of Florida,
Health and Rehabilitative Ser-
vices (HRS), and the U.S.
Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD)
will also pitch in to keep the
stores going.
Larch-Mart, located in the
Larchmont Gardens housing
project’s community center,
and Liberty-Mart, in the
Liberty Square project in
Brownsville, are two of three
non-profit convenience stores
opened with donations and
private funds to hire single
mothers on welfare and pro-
vide them with skills.
The stores ran into financial
difficulties for a few reasons,
particularly after United Way
subsidies for employees’
EEOC Moves

Effective last Monday, per-
sons wishing to contact the
U.S. Equal Employment Op-
portunity Commission in
Miami may call 536-4264 at the
Federal Building, Room 817,
51 SW 1st Ave.
Structural damage at
EEOC’s former location at 1
NE 1st St. caused the tem-
porary relocation of the agen-
cy to the new address.
EEOC is the federal govern-
ment’s lead agency in enforc-
ing laws prohibiting employ-
ment discrimination based on
race, color, religion, sex, na-
tional origin and age.
The agency enforces Title
VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act, the Equal
Pay Act and prohibitions
against discrimination affec-
ting individuals with han-
dicaps in the federal sector.

“The stores aren’t self-
sufficient,†said Tom
Petersen, a prosecutor on
leave from the Dade County
state attorney’s of fice to work
on the project. ‘‘Without the
United Way dollars, we face
possibly having to lay off
workers, which we don’t want
to do.â€
Petersen identified the
number of workers on the
grocery stores’ payrolls and a
lack of intended employee tur-
nover as factors compounding
the problem of lost funding.
“The biggest obstacle has
been trying to keep such a
large payroll operating,†he
said. “Because we were in-
terested in job training and
providing skills to as many
people as we could, we hired
more workers than you would
have in a cost-efficient store.
“We didn't have that pro-
blem at Modello; it's self-
sufficient,†he said of the third
grocery store, in South Dade.
‘‘We didn’t hire as many
women there—only three to
start with, compared to 14†at
the other stores.
“In addition,†he explained,
‘‘we haven’t had the resources
to cycle the women out of their
jobs at the store and into
others elsewhere after they
had enough skills to move.â€
The stores were supposed to
be self-sustaining after two
years, at which time a $129,000

would run out. The two-year
period was up June 30, but
Petersen attributes the con
tinued dependency to the
novelty of the venture; and he
feels it will simply take a little
more than two years to reach
the goal of independence.
Help has arrived in a few
forms to keep the stores in
business long enough to do so.
First, Citicorp Savings of
Florida pledged $2,500 to aid
Larch-Mart and Liberty-Mart
in their struggle to stay open,
and, second, the bank’s of-
ficials promised to raise an
additional $17,500.
The $2,500 plus the $17,500
would ‘‘carry the stores
through the year, and put
them in a position to be self-
sufficient,†Petersen said.
The benefit, ‘‘Showcase of
Talent,†scheduled for Aug.
29, is part of Citicorp’s efforts
to make a dent in the $17,500.
Petersen said he hopes the
benefit will raise at least
$10,000.
Third, to help with the place-
ment of employees after their
time at the grocery stores,
HRS will provide a full-time
employment specialist star-
ting Oct. 1. “We can then
begin to cycle out workers,â€
said Petersen, ‘‘and gradually
place them in jobs rather that
laying them off.â€
The fourth kind of
assistance will come from the
U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development.
Under a $25 000 funding pro
gram for Dade County housing
project-related enterprises, a
Black grocery entrepreneur
from Philadelphia will be
commissioned to provide
technical assistance to the
stores in setting up better
management systems. ‘‘We’re
looking forward to this help,â€
Petersen said.
He explained why he feels
these efforts are worth it:
‘‘Larch-Mart, Liberty-Mart,
and Modello make a contribu-
tion to the community. They
are a pleasant place to go in
the neighborhood; they look
nice. Once-dependent people
are now on their own—they
have jobs. Everybody likes
the stores,†he continued.

“That’s obvious because there
hasn’t been any crime in any
of them; the police have never
had to be called for any
reason.’’
He also mentioned nation-
wide interest in the project.
“‘Out-of-town groups want a
look at them (the stores).
‘‘We’ve had amazing
results, and it’s really great.â€â€™

full-time attorney hired for
about $60,000.
But Riley says that the
$200,000 is buying not only
Weintraub’s services but
those of an entire law firm
with expertise in several
areas of law.
Weintraub, Riley said, has
recovered more than $100,000
for the city and has been suc-
cessful in litigating :
Opa-locka’s cases 97 percent Most of the businesses are

people go there from all over
in search of motor parts,
which means good business.
Ingram flatly declared,
however, that everything hap-
pening on Cairo Lane is il-
legal.
Riley said he is interested in
the progress of the city
because he lives init with his
family and will be among
those who have to pay the bills
incurred.
He said that if no programs
are put in place to lower the
tax rate and to increase the
tax base, the city could
become broke.
If that happens and the city
is forced to dissolve itself, it
would open the way for either
Hialeah or Miami to take over,
he warned.
Riley also referred to plans
during his administration to
push for the annexation of
parts of unincorporated North
Dade as a means of raising the
city’s tax base.
Ingram charged however
that this was not Riley’s idea
but that it originated from
such men as Albert Chandler,
Newall Daughtrey and Rep.
Willie Logan.
On another issue, Riley said

created during his tenure br-
ings to the city about $200,000
annually in payment for
booths and other services at

Two veteran jounalists,
Robert Tutman, and DeWayne
Wickham, are making friends
and planning strategies in
separate efforts to win the
presidency of the National
Association of Black Jour-
nalists (NABJ).
Tutman, a CBS-TV
‘cameraman based in Chicago,
says he is aspiring to become
the next NABJ president in
order to establish progams
that will help Black jour-
nalists and Black America.
DeWayne Wickman, a syn
dicated columist and presi-
dent of Vanita Productions, in

says he is running for the posi-
tion to help bring the dream of
the association to fruition.

Center
Gets Okay To
Rent Building
By April Young
The Family Health Center
has been given permission to
take housing costs for a new
comprehensive drug treat-
ment program for women out
of A $600,000 grant from HRS.
“We have found a facility,â€
said Family Health Center
Executive Director Jessie
Trice, “and we want to get
started on the program.â€
For about six months, Trice
said, the building, located at
1510 NW 68th St., will house
the only residential drug treat-
ment center in the area.
“We're at the point of
negotiating with the owners
(of the building),†said Dr.
Erlin Bain, a clinical
psychologist who is working
with Trice to get the project
off the ground.
Trice said she does not
forsee any cut-backs in the
services the program will pro-
vide as a result of part of the
money for treatment being
spent on rent. “We were
scheduled to begin July 1,â€
Trice said. ‘‘Now we'll pro
bably start on Oct. 1, so that’s
three months’ operating ex-
penses that haven't been
used.â€
Bain said implementation of
the program will be done
gradually, but “at a very
rapid pace. The structures
will be put into place, so we
can begin; we’re committed to
making the program work.â€
“We're also trying to work
something out with the City of
Miami to clean up the area,â€
Bain added.
Trice feels that total success
is “predicated on the work of
police and other agencies to
improve the surrounding com-
munity.â€
The city does not yet have
any specific information about
what its roe will be in the
community improvement ef-
forts, but, says Livia Garcia,
special aide to Mayor Xavier
Suarez, ‘There will be a
meeting Aug. 28, and
everything will be decided
there.â€
While the Family Health
Center is using the 68th St.
facility, Little HUD will con-
tinue to seek an agreement on
another building in which the
program will operate until its
permanent facility is con-
structed.
Trice hopes that, after the
six months is up, and the pro-
gram is moved to the interim

location, the 68th St. building
will still be used in some

tion of individual journalists,
which NABJ should do.
“It is for us to do for
ourselves,â€â€™ he says.
The step is to convince
media houses to open the
doors of opportunity to Black
journalists, says Wickham.
Tutman will be 40 in Oc-
tober. If he becomes president
of NABJ, he says, he will
champion the need for Blacks
to write their own history — or
others will write it for them.
That could mean Blacks
should be ready to bear the
distortins so common with
world history taught in schools
today.
“The only way we can do for
us is to do for us,†Tutman
says.
Wickham, a founding
member of the NABJ, says he
will lead the association to

as well as survival of Black
culture, history and image.
“If we do not play an active
role in the media today,
history would be as cruel to
the next generation of Blacks
as it has been to our genera-
tion,†he says.
Tutman believes he is
capable of providing the
leadership that will enable the
NABJ deal intelligently with
the problems of unemploy-
ment.
He says he will seek support
to underwrite an NABJ na-
tional directory, a computer
network with an electronic
bulletin board that will an-
nounce jobs and promotions
and help keep Black jour-
nalists close to one another.
Tutman, in addition, calls
for the establishment of a
group life insurance program
for NABJ, and a federally-
chartered union that will pro-
tect their members when they
are between jobs.
Wickham says the issues
before NABJ members today
are so serious that those who
vote should do so with a clear
understanding of the position
of Black journalists.
“The destiny and the sur-
vival of this organization is in
the hands of the voters for the
election,â€â€™ Wickham says.
“I hope they'll entrust it is

capable,†Wickham says.

Rasheed Sues Over Burglary Trap Arrest
By Samantha Gates
Liberty City businessman
Prentice Rasheed has sued the
Miami police department $2
million for wrongful arrest
following an incident last year
inwhich a burglary trap at his
business killed a burglary
suspect.
A Dade Grand Jury refused
to indict Rasheed, owner of
Rasheed Jewelry and Clothes
located inside the AMCOP
store on 6040 N.W. 7th Ave. He
had been jailed for 10 hours
hefore bond was posted.
“I designed an anti-burglar
device. I never used it
before,†he said. ‘‘It wasn't
designed to kill anyone. I
guess you can say it malfunc-
tioned.â€
Rasheed said he is suing
because he has not gotten
police protection of the
businesses in the area that he
requested. He adds that he
also requested funds from the
city to make repairs for his
and neighboring businesses,
without success.
“I talked to the mayor. He
promised me help. I made a
proposal for a million dollars
for businesses to make repairs
before last Christmas,’’ he
said, adding nothing ever
materialized.
When asked by The Times if
he would allocate funds to
businesses if he wins his multi-
million-dollar suit, he replied
he would but that is not the
main basis for his action.
“I have a legal American
right to sue for a case in which
I was unjustly charged, un
justly arrested, unjustly jailed
and lost money,†Rasheed
said.
He argued that the defama-
tion of character and money
lost by being arrested are ade-
quate reason for filing the suit,
though he admits that many
people supported him and did
not stop patronizing his
business.
“Some people even sent me
money for my defense,â€
Rasheed said. “No one stop-
ped coming to the store.â€

AIDS Victim Lives Life O
Wife On Death Bed With Disease
By April Young
One day at a time is the way
Charles Johnson, 33, lives his
life.
He is a former postal ser-
vice worker but has lost his
livelihood, his home, and his
children.
Charles Johnson has AIDS.
How he got it is a point of
conflict. He maintains that he
has never been an intravenous
drug abuser, nor, he says, has
he participated in any
homosexual activities.
Neither he nor his wife, whe
lies on her death bed with the
disease, admits to any ex-
tramarital relations through
which they could have been
exposed to the HIV (human
immuno-deficiency virus).
Johnson is a puzzling man.
He is all at once desperate,
resigned, hopeful, bitter,
pleading, and honest. He looks
like an ordinary working man,
dressed in black pants, an
orange and brown jungle print
shirt, and a worn, faded
military cap.
Johnson does not appear to
be ill. His skin is mottled, but
the dark spots could be taken
for acne scars. He speaks.
quietly, but with great depth
of feeling.
“I'm just in the HIV stage,â€
he said. He is not presently ex-
periencing ARC, AIDS-related
complex, which precedes full-
blown AIDS.
“I know I'm going to die,â€
he said in an interview with
The Miami Times. ‘I've ac-
cepted that.†— Resignation.
“I need help, though,†he
continued. ‘I need counsel-
ing —someone to sit down and
talk to; I need a job. I need
money, clothes, and food, and
someone who cares.†— Hope
and desperation.
Johnson said he does tell
prospective employers about
his having AIDS. “You get re-
jected automatically,†he
said. He does not regret telling
them, however. ‘‘It’s hard to
deal with it all sometimes,†he
added, “but I do.â€
He says he tries to be open
with everyone about his
disease, but it is often difficult
to handle the reactions, which
range from astonishment to
aggression.
“Someone lately told me
about people knocking off
AIDS vicitms,†he said. ‘‘That
was something to think
about—that someone would
try to hurt me because I have
it (HIV).â€
During theFriday afternoon
interview, a homeless person
wandered into The Miami
Times offices, begging for
money. “That's comparable
to having AIDS,†said
Johnson. ‘‘You're needy.’
“I'm not here to beg,†he
said, ‘‘but I'm not ashamed of
having AIDS, either. I have to
keep going; I have tokeep try-
ing. I wish I had some help.â€
He said he was unable to ob-
tain welfare because he owned
a home. The house has since
partially burned, and the bank
has foreclosed on it, he says.
He is not hopeful about his
chances now of getting
welfare. ‘No one wants to sit
down there all day to be turn-
ed down,’ he said.
He has found other social
services wanting as well. He
has attended a peer support
group in the past, but his con-
cerns were not completely
satisfied there. ‘‘I wasn’t rich
or White or gay,†he said, ‘‘so
I couldn't really relate to what
was going on.’
His seven children—four
boys and three girls —are in
the custody of Health and
Rehabilitative Services
(HRS). He refers to the
children often. ‘‘They ve had
a hard time digesting it . . .you
know . . .that their father’s go-
ing to die,†Johnson said. “But
they've accepted it.â€â€™
Johnson was written up this
month with his four sons in a
national news magazine. His
bitterness comes across
sharply when he speaks of the
experience.
“I got nothing for that,†he
said referring to the interview
with the magazine.
He has also done a short in-
terview for an AIDS television
documentary.
Johnson feels the media has
exploited him and his family.
He also feels strongly about
what he wants the public to
know about AIDS.
“They should become more
aware of the disease,†he said.
“People must get involved
and render some assistance.’
In Johnson's view, AIDS is
“a Black man’s disease,†but
he does not feel that Black
people care enough about it.
“Where's the concern?’ he
Clinic Supporters Keep Up
Their Drive For Funds
Martinez Continues To Draw Criticism
By Samantha Gates
Advocates supporting a
school-based health clinic in
Northwestern Senior High
School are still battling the re-
cent refusal of Gov. Bob Mar-
tinez, who rejected private
funding for the facility
because its work would in-
clude providing contracep-
tives to students.
“In his campaign he said
that he was not in favor of
those types of clinics,†said
Mike Powers, Director of
Legislation and External Af-
fairs for the Governor.
Plans for the clinic began
while former Gov. Bob
Graham was in office. He ap-
proved a $600,000 grant from
the Robert Wood Johnson
Foundation for the in-house
clinic, to be channeled through
Health and Rehabilitative Ser-
vices (HRS)
Powers said that the plans
did not materialize until Mar-
tinez took office, who in
structed the HRS to reject the
funds.
Eva Grace, president of the
Parent Teacher Student
Association (PTSA) at Nor-
thwestern, Martinez's deci-
sion was unfair because,
unlike Graham, he had never
visited Northwestern.
“I've written to Gov. Mar-
tinez to come to our first
(PTSA) meeting,’ said
Grace, adding that the letter
will be mailed to tomorrow. “‘I
will give him to Aug. 31 to rep-
ly.â€
A prior meeting will be held
onthe first Tuesday in Sept for
concerned citizens, parents
and students.
Advocates note that
distribution of contraceptives
would be only one function of
the clinic. They feel that Mar-
tinez has overlooked some
other important services to be
offered, such as free medical
care, including physical ex-
aminations; laboratory ser-
vices ; immunizations; screen-
ing for communicable and
chronic diseases; treatment of
common illnesses; diagnosis
and treatment of sexually
transmitted diseases;
gynecological exams; and
dermatology consultations.
Educational ‘and counseling
programs are also to be of-
fered in the areas of family
planning, nutritional educa-
tion, dental hygiene educa-
tion, health education, weight
reduction classes and con-
sultation, prenatal class on the
maternity cyde, and a parent
support group for students
with babies under six months
of age.
All students attending the
high school or coming from
feeder junior high schools will
be eligible for the services.
The clinic is to be operated
by the Dade County Health
Department during summer
and regular school sessions,
Mondays through Fridays, 8
a.m. to 4:40 p.m.
Staff will include a nurse
practitioner, a master’s level
social worker, and a health
support specialist, all full-
time.
Part-time employees will in-
clude a nutritionist, an
obstetrician-gynecologist, a
dermtologist and an or-
thopedic surgeon.
An advisory board
established by the Public
Health Department, compris-
ed of students, parents, facul-
to provide regular input into
clinic policies, procedures and
activities after its inception.
The clinic's goals are to
reduce absenteeism, reduce
the drop-out rate, improve im-
munization outcomes, in-
crease knowledge of teenage
sexuality, and provide ac-
curate information in the
following areas: nutrition,
weight-reduction, drug and
substance abuse, sexuality
and sexually-transmitted
diseases.
The effectiveness of the
clinic will be judged against
the background of whether it
successfully obtains its goals.
That is the plan for the
clinic, but without the funds,
the plan cannot materialize.
SEARS
ty and selected community §
members will be use to define §
and plan the various com- §
ponenets of the clinic, to |

“0 PERFECT LOVE FOR WALLACE R. BEACHMAN
AND RICHARD A. WILLIAMSâ€. . . The Celebration and
Blessing of the marriage of Walline Renee’ and Richard An-
thorny Williams became a reality on Friday, August 14, 1987,
six o'clock in the evening, at New Way Fellowship Baptist
Church. The candlelight nuptial ceremony, touched with the
colorful decorative floral arrangements of Ji
peach and green, glowed throughout the
edifice as music and song filled the summer
air. The pretty bride, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Petro W. Beachman, Sr. was attired in
a beautiful white formal-length gown, trim-
med with yards and yards of satin, and ent-
wined with delicate handmade miniature
beads, sequins, pearls and sparkling floral
appliques. She was indeed a picture of
loveliness as she descended the aisle with
her father to meet her groom, who was at- Newbold
tired in a Black tuxedo. The handsome groom, son of Dr. and
Mrs. Richard Williams, gently took his bride’s arm as they ex-
changed their wedding vows and received their blessings from
Bishop Arthur Wilson, Sr., officiating minister. Following the
salute to the newlyweds, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Anthony
Williams, friends and relatives gathered at the spacious Hotel
Sofitel for an elegant dinner reception in their honor. Mrs
Maebel Wilson, aunt of the bride, served as wedding coor-
dinator and directress of the exquisite affair. And, for the
handsome couple, it was a time for joy, hope, laughter, and
song—but most of all—it was a time for love—"0 perfect love,
all human thought transcending.’’

Klan Ignored As Eatonvi
EATONVILLE (AP)— The
nation’s oldest incorporated
Black community celebrated
its 100th birthday Saturday
with a parade, a street festival
and an uninvited appearance
by the Ku Klux Klan.
The Florida chapter of the
Invisible Empire of the
Knights of the Ku Klux Klan
had asked that it be allowed to
have a group of white-robed
members march in the parade
through this town of 3,000
residents. But it was rebuffed
and settled instead for an ap-
pearance along the parade
route by several klansmen in
civilian clothes.
After the parade started, a
limousine carrying two robed
but hoodless Klan members
from nearby Apopka drove up
to the lot designated for the
klansmen. 'i:ey refir-ed to
leave the car or talk to
reporters, and left when the
police units leading the parade
arrived at the spot.
Uniformed and plain-clothes
police stood nearby.
‘We are here to con-
eratulate Eatonville on main-
laining a separatist communi-
ty for the last 100 years," said
John Baumgardner, grand
titan of the Florida KKK
group. “We'd like to see them
continue with an all-Black
community.â€

An article on the renovation

Times of Aug. 6 gave the im-
Parade watcher Retha
Nance, 40, said the Klan “had
no business being here any
time, particularly on a day
like this.â€
Eatonville officials bristled
at the idea that the poor, two-
square-mile town "adjoin
prosperous Winter Park is
racially segregated.
“What we mean when we
say Eatonville is a Black town
is that we're accentuating the
historic aspects of this town’s
founding,’’ said Mayor
Abraham Gordon.
Eatonville was incorporated
on Aug. 18 1887, by 27 Blacks
who bought lots from Anglo
landowner Josiah Eaton, for
whom the settlement was
named.
Eatonville historian F. M.
Otey says Eaton, a founder of
neighboring Maitland, was a
humanitarian who wanted
Blacks to be able to govern
themselves. Other historians
say, however, that Eaton
wanted to keep Blacks out of
Maitland but yet provide a
place were landowners and
farmers could have a ready
supply of Black labor.
The town now has three
Anglo families, Otey said.
Leroy Filmore, an Eaton-
ville council member, came
here from nearby Apopka in
1957 to attend Hungerford
High School, named for an
Anglo benefactor, and
remembers his first impres-
sion of the town.
“I was amazed that I saw
my first Black policemen and
first Black fireman,†Filmore
says. “It didn’t dawn on me
that Blacks were running the
town. During that time, Black
people just didn’t do that.â€
Otey, a former principal of
Hungerford, remembers that,
of the 100 graduates of the
class of 1955, 25 went on to ac-
quire doctoral degrees or
become physicians.
Among its famous natives
are the late author-folklorist
Zora Neale Hurston, who
wrote of Eatonville residents
and inspired Alice Walker to
write ‘‘The Color Purple.’’ Ms.
Hurston, whose career was at
its height during the Harlem
Renaissance of the 1930s, died
in 1960.
Other Eatonville natives
who made good are pro foot-
hall's Deacon Jones, a
member of the Hall of Fame
who now lives in Los Angeles;
Benjamin Perry, former
president of Florida A & M
University; and Joseph
Boyer, president of Mississip-
pi Valley State University.
Like many Black towns
across the country, it is
desperately poor.
A 1985 study found that the
‘median family income was
$9.500, half of the $18,000 level
of the rest of Orange County. A

majority of its homeowners do
not pay property taxes
because their houses are
valued at less than the $25,000
homestead exemption.
But Gordon is optimistic
that a 100-acre industrial and
office complex will change
things. Of $120,000 in property
tax collections due this year,
the 12 businesses which have
moved into the industrial park
will pay almost one-third.
“It’s time we staked our
claim to Central Florida's
growing economy,†he said.

Credit Card Scene Is Undergoing Change
You should consider three
things when shopping for a
bank credit card—the interest
rate, annual fee and grace
period. If you expect to spread
out payments regularly, you
should select a credit card
with a low interest rate. If you
are confident you will pay off
your balance every month,
you should select a card which
has a low annual fee or no fee
at all.
Recently, many institutions
have been eliminating or
shortening the grace
period—the time in which you
may pay off your bill without
incurring an interest charge.
Most credit cards allow you
28-30 days to pay your bill
before interest is charged.
However, some institutions
are charging interest beginn
ing from the date of the tran-
saction or the date the bank
receives the charge slip for
the purchase. To avoid losing
the grace period, read the fine
print before signing a credit
card agreement.
Florida law limits the in-
terest rates financial institu-
tions can charge on credit
card accounts to 18 percent.
Most Florida institutions

We Need You
I would like to address this article to an individual who lives
in Dade County, who is a Black American citizen and an in-
dividual who is either in business or is sincerely desirous of go-
ing into business. A person who has character, whose word is
his bond. One who has a reputation that they finish things they
start and does a good job in whatever endeavors they under-
charge at the limit, but some
charge less. Shop around.
Credit unions generally have
lower interest rates than
banks and savings and loans,
and they may have no annual
fee as well.
Each state sets its own
usury ceiling on interest. If
your credit card is issued by a
bank outside Florida, the laws
of the state where the bank is
located control how high your
interest rate will be.
Interest rates range from
10.5 percent to 22.2 percent na-
tionwide, according to a
Workshop On

A free workshop, entitled
“Doing Business with the
Department of Defense
(DOD)â€â€™, will be held at the
Miami Dade Main Library,
101 West Flagler St. on Tues-
day, Sept. 1, from noon to 2
take. An individual that has initiative. One
who is willing to do practical research to |.
prepare him or herself for tasks they must
undertake. A person that believes in
themselves and has a knack of being able to
persuade others to believe in them and their
endeavors. This person must also have the §
ability to seek out and accept help. There is
absolutely nothing wrong with not ‘‘know-
ing’, providing one does something about it.
If you don’t know, seek help. If you fall or
fail, try again. This individual must have
tenacity. In the streets we call it “‘sticktoitiveness’’, the ability
to hang in there until the task is achieved.
If you happen to be that individual who meets or exceeds the
criteria outlined above, I want to meet you at your earliest
convenience.
We at the Business Assistance Center Inc. have $5 million
available to assist you in being successful in your endeavors.
We are here to help individuals who have what it takes to be
successful. We can assist by providing technical assistance
and making the path of accessing financial assistance easier.
Our funds are private funds that are made available to loan or
invest in business propositions that have a high probability of
success. If you believe in your venture and are willing to prove
it and are able to demonstrate that over a period of time we
will be able to get our money back after assisting you to
achieve your financial success, then you need to write me a
letter at: 6600 N.W. 27th Avenue, P.O. Box 470830, Miami, FL
33247.
I must acknowledge that many of the applicants I have
reviewed over the last five years have presented to me “a
great deal of gusto and ego’’ and not very much else. With all
due respect to the unlearned, unprepared, well-intentioned
person who is looking for something for nothing, may I suggest
that those individuals need not waste their and my time.
If, on the other hand, you are interested in becoming
qualifiable, please write and sign up to participate in the
Business Assistance Center's Entrepreneurial Institute. The
Entrepreneurial Institute's curriculm is based upon the
‘Business Plan.†It attempts to define what the components of
a good business plan are, how to develop those components
and how to use them on a day-to-day basis. The whole purpose
of a business plan is simply to outline what methodology you
plan to emply to operate your business successfully and pro-
fitably. It suggests that youhave planned your work and it ex-
plains how you plan to work your plan.
~ Wearenot a bank nor do we want to be. We do, however, see
ourselves as a bridge to the community. We prefer to provide
our resources to individuals who would otherwise not be able
to access fully the financial requirements for their business
proposition. We prefer tobe involved in a business proposition
in which the owner has an equity injection, a bank is willing to
loan a portion of the needed financing and we, the Business
Assistance Center, would fill the gap. We prefer to use our
funds to leverage opportunities for Black entrepreneurs.

The lowest interest rate
found was 10.5 percent. Four

By Nwachukwu Ezem
Prior to the establishment of
the office of Black affairs, in
1979, the 367,000 Blacks in
Dade had virtually no access
to certain services provided
hy county agencies.
Such services as obtaining
‘information on low-cost hous-
ing, preventing foreclosures
on property, and taking ad-
vantage of economic develop-
ment opportunities were pass-
ing Black people by.
But, in 1979, community ac:
tivist and former city commis-
sioner, Athalie Range
spearheaded a move to
change that picture, compell-
ing Metro Commissioners to
pass a resolution to set up an
Office of Black Affairs.
Purcell Dixon, who has been
acting director for some three
years, said the office has serv

Black Affairs Office Faces Budget Cut
Funding Loss Will Hurt Black Community
ed as an advocate as well as a
liason between Dade County
government and the Black
community.
Besides this role, Dixon
said, the Office of Black Af-
fairs also engages in speedy
resolution of problems in the
areas of economic develop-
ment, cultural arts, teenage
pregnancy, substance abuse
and health care for the
homeless.
In addition, the office
organizes workshops, and
seminars, to address issues
relating to mortgages, financ-
ing, and settlement of disputes
hetween homeowners and
tenants
Dixon believes that the
family and I are committed to
maintaining the high level of
excellence and dignity that we
have seen here.
“I have set three simple
goals for my command
tenure: one, to provide the
best support possible to the
Army's Training and Doctrine
Command headquarters here:
two, to improve the quality of
life for Fort Monroe soldiers
and their families; and, three,
to maintain a superb relation-
ship with the local communi-
growing Black population has
benefited more from count
government since the
establishment of the office
Through the office, he said,
several Blacks have been
moved into the mainstream of
economics and business
within the county.
With the creation of the of-
fice, more Blacks now own
businesses than in 1980, from
one percent Black business
ownership in 1980 to almost 14
percent in 1986, put together
two publications, a Directory
of Black Businesses, and a
Black Speakers’ Bureau. Both
publications were rated ex-
cellent by the National
Organization of Cities and
ty.â€
The Miami native was
recently the garrison com-
mander at Fort Stewart and
Hunter Army Airfield in
Georgia. He previously served
as deputy installation com-
mander at Fort Stewart and
as assistant chief of staff for
the mechanized 8th Infantry
Division in West Germany
The Vietnam veteran is a
graduate of the Armor Officer
Basic and Advance Course
and the Armed Forces Staff
Counties
According to a survey, Dix-
im said, some of the 17,000
Black businesses listed in the
directory were awarded a $40
million contract by big cor-
porations.
Despite the work this office
has done however, budget cuts
planned by the county might
prevent it from accomplishing
the goals that its small staff
has set.
In this fiscal year, the Office
of Black Affairs is operating
on a budget of $107,000, hardly
enough to run a main office
and a satellite annex. This
amount provides for a direc-
tor, a public information of
ficer, and a program analyst,
College. He was commission-
ed a second lieutenant in 1962
at Florida A&M University,
where he received a
bachelor’s degree in political
science.
In addition, he completed
graduate studies in human
relations at the University of
Oklahoma. He is a graduate of
Booker T. Washington High
School.
His military decorations in-
clude the Bronze Star Medal
(with Oak Leaf Cluster), the
who between them, carry out
all the functions of the office
Besides, the two publica-
tions of the office are financed
from the same budget. But
there is a plan to reduce this
budget to $89,000 (a 21 percent
cut) in 1987/88 fiscal year.
“With the demands placed
on this office, we can ill afford
a cut,’ said Dixon, who added
that it won't be easy with the
population of Blacks in the
county constantly increasing
with Haitians, Jamaicans and
the immigrant Blacks.
Between Jan.-July, 1987, the
office handled 36,000 requests
for assistance from Blacks
and, Dixon says, about 70,000
such calls are expected bet-
ween now and the end of next
year.
Dewey Knight, deputy coun-
ty manager, agrees that the
budget cut would hurt the Of-
Meritorious Service Medal
(with Oak Leaf Cluster), the
Air Medal, the Army Com-
mendation Medal! (with four
Oak Leaf Clusters), the Army
Achievement Medal and the
Combat Infantryman’s
Badge.
Scott is married to the
former Patricia Thomas, of
Columbus, Ga. They have a
daughter, Leta Byrd, and a
son, Michael. His sister, Max-
ine Sears, is a resident of
Miami.
PURCELL DIXON
...acting director
fice of Black Affairs, and
realizes that it’s functions are
highly needed by Blacks.
“But we are cutting down
everybody,†he says.
One way of compensating
for the cut, Knight say is that
the county will request the
Community Relations Board
to assist the Office of Black Af-
airs.
Marcia Sanders, the first
director of the office, said
there is no doubt that the of-
fice serves a meaningful pur-
pose and should be supported
by all means.
Dixon says he is optimistic
that even if the county goes
through with the budget cut,
he believes that funds would
“come from somewhere,â€
considering that the Black
community stands to lose
more without the existence of
the Office of Black Affairs.

You Need To Know
: By State Rep. Jeffereson Reaves
Malpractice Insurance:
Beast Or Friend?
The malpractice insurance scenario is marred with con-
troversy. There are opposing sides with very different opi-
nions. Each viewpdint is credible according to who is presen-
ting it, but the main emphasis should be quality health care for
the masses of the people.
The major opposition is the doctors who perform a valuable
service but maintain that present insurance
rates are hampering the service. However
factual that may seem, it is possible that the
insurance rates act as a wedge between
good health care and poor health care.
Therefore, any legislation which is for-
malized should take into consideration
several options. These options should in-
clude what is fair forthe doctorsin order for
them to be able to practice but also should
include clauses that prevent them from Pe
abusing their patients because they are not REAVES
afraid of malpractice suits.
The other major viewpoint is the one shared by the people
who are receiving health care — the patients. Their opinion is
based on the reasoning that, regardless of whether it’s human
error or accidental, the doctors or the hospitals should be
liable. However, this causes undue hardship on these institu-
tions if theliabilityis not justified Therefore, if a judgement is
rewarded, the amount should be based on neglect or abuse but
not greed.
The legislature is considering a special session in order to
cure the malpractice problem. These and other issues will be
proposed in order to formalize a fair and conscientious
malpractice hill.

issue. Youmay reach me by writing to me at 2741 NW 49th St.

Question: I am a single parent on welfare with two young
children. I have been struggling to keep my children dothed
and fed the last two years because my ex-husband will not pay
any child support. The HRS charged me a fee to get help in
court orders, I could not afford to pay and therefore could not
THE
get child support from my ex-husband.
Has the state done anything to help so-
meone in my condition?
Answer: First of all, you can go back to |
the Department of Health and
Rehabilitative Services (HRS) for help. The
fee that you had to pay before you could
receive assistance has been eliminated due ° a) |
tonew legislation passed by the 1987 Florida -
Legislature. ;
Under the new child-support laws, over-
due suppport payments will result in an
ha
automatic judgement against the del- Meek
inguent parent, which could affect the person's credit rating
and lead to liens on the person’s property.

GAINESVILLE— Many ex-
isting psychological counsel-
ing techniques are woefully in-
adequate to meet the needs of
Black people, and there is a
strong need for more Black
counselors and psychologists
as well as social and
psychological theories based
on Black culture, says a
University of Florida
psychalogist.
“I feel there is a deficit in
the counseling system in
general, and it doesn’t meet
the needs of Blacks and other
minorities in particular,†says
Hattie Johnson-Nalls, a
counseling psychologist at
UF’s Psychological and Voca-
tional Counseling Center.
‘I think that’s reflected in
the low number of Blacks in
counseling and the high pro-
portion that drop out,â€
Thursday, August, 20, 1987 — THE MIAMI TIMES — 19
Psychologist Calls For More Black Counselors
Theories Based On Black Culture Needed
Johnson-Nalls said. “It’s fair
to assume that when Black
people go in for counseling,
they're in a crisis. It’s a last
resort.
“There is a need for social
and psychological theories
that incorporate the values
and cultural history of Black
Americans,†Johnson-Nalls
said. “Until we see that done,
we won't see counseling
positively impacting the lives
of Black Americans.â€
One strong advantage of
having more Black counselors
is that it provides a sense of
commonality for Black
clients, Johnson-Nalls said.
“The traditional counseling
techniques are not significant-
ly effective with Black clients,
since they were developed
based on Western culture and
the Western European value
system,†Johnson-Nalls said.
Prior to the 1980's, most of
the research done on Blacks
was conducted by Anglo
Americans, based on the
European value system. It is
therefore necessary to have
Black psychologists and
counselors do research rele-
vant to their own cultural and
value systems, and to incor-
porate those findings into ef-
fective therapeutic strategies,
Johnson-Nalls said.
“The information coming
from Black social and
psychological researchers is
more accurate than research
done by Anglos in the early
60’s to late 70's, Johnson-Nalls
said. This is because Anglo
researchers are in the position
of trying to look in on Black
culture from the outside, and
evaluate what they see from a
perspective that causes them
to judge Blacks negatively,
she said.
Black clients are also faced
with the deficit hypothesis
when entering counseling
situations. Johnson-Nalls
defined ‘‘deficit hypothesis,â€
formerly referred to as
“culturally disadvantaged,â€
as being deficient or less than
the Anglo culture.
An example of the deficit
hypothesis in a therapeutic
situation, Johnson-Nalls said,
would be if in therapy there
was a Black man who was
very spiritual and talked
about having visions. Merely
talking about having visions in
this context could be con-
strued by some therapists as a
sign of mental illness, but it
doesn’t mean the man is
schizophrenic, Johnson-Nalls
said.
‘“‘We need to

Nalls thinks it’s important for
counselors and psychologists
who are not members of the
Black culture to build up a
sense of awareness,
understanding, appreciation
and acceptance of the Black
culture and value system and
reflect that in their counseling
and therapy techniques.
“It’s necessary to take an
eclectic approach, taking
from the different therapeutic
techniques and strategies that
apply to that person’s par-

Ask The Gynecologist
Copi ng By Dr. Charles W. Faulkner
Does Your Accent
“Dear Dr. Faulkner:
You said a person in the selling profession should try to
eliminate any accent from his voice. Why is that? How can it
be done? Roland, Detroit.â€
Dear Roland:
I hate to tell you this but many people instantly judge a per-
son with certain accents (southern, -mid-
western) asinferior. This is the unfortunate
truth. Few television personalities have ac-
cents. People tend to be impressed with a
voice that is lively, well-modulated, ar- |
ticulate and slightly ‘New Yorkish.â€
Since most people judge you instantly,
based upon their behavioral conditioning,
habit and bias, they seldom get beyond that
initial “feeling†about you. Here are a few
things that you can do to eliminate the
negative impression that your voice might Faulkner

“Dear Dr. Faulkner:
I am training with a company for a career in sales. My boss
said that learing everything we can about the product is the
most important thing to do. Do you agree with him? — Fred,
New York.†-
Dear Fred:
It is necessary for you to be very knowledgeable about every
aspect of your product for the purposes of demonstrating it to
your client, answering questions, and being confident that you
are selling a quality product.
Nevetheless, it is equally important to have full knowledge
of the psychology of selling and of how to manipulate behavior.
The really good salespeople sell themselves, first, then they
sell the product. In other words, they manipulate the feelings
of the client before they even begin to discuss the product.
There are a lot of brillant; well-informed salespeople who
can’t motivate anyone to buy their product. On the other hand,
those who know and understand human behavior can sell any
product (dothes, cars, vitamins, cosmetics) regardless of
their knowledge of their merchandise.
Nursing Home Wins High State Rating
By Samantha Gates
Ashley Manor Care Center,
a local nursing facility with a
predominantly Black staff,
recently received a superior
rating from the state.
“I make rounds but the staff
does all the work and deserve
recognition,â€â€™ said Bill Savett,
the administrator.
According to Savett, the in-
spection is conducted by the
Office of Licensure and Cer-
tification Department of HRS.
“They came in with five in-
spectors for each department :
dietary, nursing, social ser-
vices, house keeping and ad-
ministration,â€â€™ Savett said,
‘‘and we proved superior.â€
Approximately 75 percent of
those employed by the home
are Black, as are three of the
five administrators.
Savett said that the
facility’s high rating is par-
tially attributed to its low
turn-over rate in employ-
ment: nearly 60 percent have
been there for 10 years or
more.
But Savett said that ex-
perience aloneis not enough to
run a 120-bed home that
houses over 40 percent Blacks
and nearly 30 percent
Hispanics.
“We admitted my wife’s
grandmother in a nursing
Choosing Hospital
Persons preparing for anon-
emergency visit to a hospital
at which they will receive
treatment with as much care
as they doin making any other
important decision, the Better
Business Bureau of South
Florida suggest.
With one out of every six
U.S. residents hospitalized
every year, prospective pa-
tients should carefully discuss
their impending hospital stay
with their physician, the BBB
says.
Questions to ask include:
« Is hospitalization
necessary or is outpatient
care a viable alternative?
(What will your insurance
cover?)
« Can the medical procedure
be performed with a minimum
of overnight stays?
» Can the results of recent
medical tests be used in order
to eliminate duplicative tests
in the hospital?
« Should you obtain a second
option on the procedure?
(Most insurance companies
now require this of elective
surgery.)
« Has the hospital been ac-
credited by the joint Commis
sion of Accreditation ot
Hospitals?
Find out at which hospital
your physician is a staff
member. Talk with friends,
colleagues and family
members who have received
treatment in these facilities
for their impressions.

home in Ft. Lauderdale,â€
Savett explained. “It was
really terrible. When we
would go to the administrator
to complain, he would say if
we didn’t like it take her out.’
“Then I said to myself nurs-
ing home care must be better
than this,†said Savett who
with a masters in public
health shortly afterwards
began his career at Ashley
Manor.
“I'm an advocate for the
people. I ask families with
complaints to feel free to
speak to me.â€
Savett said that his staff
also shares in his dedication
and care towards patients.
“Sometimes I don’t want to
come to work,†said Ola Mae
Davis, a nursing assistant that
was employed in 1961, ‘‘but I
go because the patients and
staff need me. I thank God
that I am able to keep those
patients.â€
Another nursing aid that
have been employed for over
27 years said seeing them
recover has become the most
important thing to her.
“You try to do the best you
can in helping them.†said
Mary Corston. “It makes me
feel good to see them come in
and get well and go home.â€

EXAMINATION, OR TREATMENT,
TO THE ADVERTISEMENT FOR THE FREE SERVICE,
By George F. Battie, M.D.
Q. I suspect that my 14-year-old daughter is sexually active,
but she denies it. I have attempted to get birth-control pills for
her but she will not cooperate. In general, what are the
reasons teenagers give for not using birth control?
A: Teenage pregnancy is rising at an alarming rate. In spite
of the number of community agencies ad-
dressing this issue, the problem worsens. A
fairly recent survey of teenagers reports
the following reasons for not using birth
control: (1) “I didn’t get around to it.†(2)
“I was afraid my family would find out.â€
(3) “I was waiting for a closer relationship
with partner.†(4)“I thought birth control
was dangerous.â€â€ (5) ‘I was afraid of
physical examination.â€â€™ (6) ‘‘I thought it
would cost too much.†(7) “I didn’t think
that I had sex often enough to get
pregnant.†(8) “I never thought of it.â€â€™ (9) “I didn’t know
where to get birth control.†(this was the answer of approx-
imately 15 percent of teenagers.â€
Those werethe top 10 answers. Other answers given less fre-
quently included: “I didn’t expect to have sex’, ‘‘My partner
objected,†and, “I thought I was too young to get pregnant.â€
I have no information on excuses given by teenage fathers.
Q. Do I have to stop breast-feeding before starting birth con-
trol pills?
A: Low-dose oral contraceptives do not appear to present a
hazard to the breast-fed infant. Certainly, the mother may use
birth-contrd pills if there are no contradications to their use.
Oral contraceptives have been reported to decrease the milk
yield in lactating mothers.
Q: What are my chances of getting V.D.?
A: Without knowing your specfic life-style, it would be im-
possible to say. Individuals having many different sexual part-
ners are at a high risk of getting gonorrhea or one of the other
approximately 10 veneral diseases. Individuals in one-on-one
relations are not susceptible. Females using birth-control pills
are less susceptible than females that are sexually active and
using no contraception. Sexual intercourse using condoms
reduces the risk of veneral disease to possibly zero.
The bottom line is that the individual controls the risk of get-
ting veneral disease, to a large extent, by the life-style the in-
dividual chooses.

The Poet's Pen By Jackie Fowler (Poetry Editor)
Omega Supreme
By R.M. Solomon
You took from me all the negative and in
return replaced it with positive.
You hung around just waiting for me to do
better.
After my eyes were opened enough to see
the hurt, the pain, and the suffering I caused,
you still forgave me.
All that you went through because of me
was not in vain.
You’ve shown me love like none I've ever
seen before.
You've given me love like I've not received
or experienced.
You've given me wisdom, knowledge, and
understanding.
You gave me life and I can live again.
You are my Alpha, and Omega, my beginn-
ing, and my ending.
You are SUPREME.
It Hurts
By Samantha Stanley
It’s gone far enough.
Now, take my advice.
Stop doing what you're doing,
‘Cause you're messing up your life.
You come home in the day,
And stay out at night,
You know for yourself that ain’t right.
You never spend time with me, even if you
can,
You always wanna be with your so-called
man.
He ain’t nothing as far as I can see.
I'll be more then he'll ever be.
Yes! He gives you money without any
slack.
But give him a day or two, and he’ll take it
back.
He gave you some money to get a mopacle,
Which made you glad and smile.
I'll be damn! He took it back after a while.
He promised you two more rocks; you ain’t
got them yet.
You always telling me, “I'm gonna get
them, I bet.â€
I hate he got your life going astray,
But, believe me, one of these days he will
pay.
The Real Prison
By Larry Kendrick
Society often reads about correctional
facilities and inmates, but many fail to
understand what prison really is.
You see, the real prison is not the one the
outsiders know. The real prison is different.
It’s a loneliness which sinks its teeth into the
very souls of men. It's a prison overlooked,
seldom read about in books, rarely portrayed
onthescreen. It is a place where people strive
to find themselves.
It is a place of both hope and hoplessness,
the drama of people tears without laughter,
too much emotional darkness without light.
It’s a routine that makes living a weary task.
The real prison is more formidable than
high walls, fences and iron bars. It’s the bit-
terness of those without friends. It’s the
unhappiness of an indisciplined life. Where
discipline is neglected, life wanders into bon
dage, bondage into habits and things that dic-
tate life's direction.
The real prison is a world that listens
unhearing to the cries of man begging for
friendship.
It's people whose very existence has been
forgotten by a different world of those to ac-
cept them, a world that shouts its contempt
for the mixed-up and fumbling society of
misfits which it holds in a grip.
The real prison is a place where a worried
mother’s face is studying the face of a son
who was once her pride and joy. Her heart is
broken now because drugs are destroying
him, or did. And there is nothing she can do.
It's a loving grandmother lying silently in her
bed at night with a prayer in her heart for the
wayward grandson she loves and cherishes.
It’s the constant thought of someone you call-
ed a friend, and who failed.
This is the real prison. No bars of steel,
locked doors or fences.
A person is in a real prison when he is
unable to return friendship and love.
A person is in a real prison when he forgets
there are other people in the world besides
himself and that they deserve the right to be
respected
A person is in a real prison when he cannol
be honest with those who believe in him
When a man cannot seek forgiveness,
serenity and peace, and becomes too blind to
see God's goodness all around him, this man
is in the real prison, because you see, the real
prison is within the heart of man.
God Loves You
By Michael Dale
God could have made you wrong,
But loves you as you are.
Your personality is what matters,
Thats what pleases Him by far.
Everyone has capabilities,
Everyone is quite unique. |
Everyone has poten-
tialities,
That emerge if we seek. [3
God gave us all distinc
tive gifts, :
And you have quite a
few;
Be proud if you are pi
Black, White, or Blue.
Just remember:
loves you.

A Rough Life
By Jerry Newton
It’s just a shame about my present condi-
tion.
I can’t even go outside without getting per-
mission.
Can’t even watch what I want on T.V.
I'm always wishing for some woman to
come visit me.
I live on dreams, fantasies, prayers, and
hope.
Seems like I'm almost at the end of my
rope.
Can’t even have the kind of food that I real-
ly like,
And living among these strangers, I can
hardly sleep at night.
Then I must face this God in a robe that’s
black.
It’s enough to make even a fool never want
to come back.
Facing Reality
By J. Denise Knight
Trying and not trying are two different
things,
Just as success and failure have two dif-
ferent meanings.
To be something in life can be big or small,
But to be somebody is the best thing of all.
To wash tears away because someone has
doubted your intensions.
Makes decisions stronger and build higher
ambitions.
Going for the best makes you a stronger
person in life ahead
And have determination much higher than
anything anybody has ever read.
Life goes on whether you're happy or sad,
So turn the frown up-side down and it won’t
be so bad.
For there are many things to pull you, such
as drugs and alcohol and other bad things,
And it’s these very things that destroys a
person’s dreams.
Crack may want you here and alcohol my
want you there,
But it doesn’t make a difference because
both are everywhere.
That's why you must fight to keep the
dream alive
And once you have achieved something in
life, that means you have survived.
She’s Mine Too
By Jerome Harris
Thinking of you I can see your face,
And you make me so proud to be with you
anywhere.
When we rode around you look so good to
me in the car,
I feel heaven must have lost a star.
And when you look at me and turn on that
smile,
At the age I am now you make me feel like a
child.
You look so cute when you smile, and so
beautiful when you cry,
It hurts me so bad when you leave and say
goodbye.
. The'little time we spent alone, I feel thats
the only thing from you I own.
She's mine too, these words I will say.
But I feel so different when she goes away
Yes, I'd like to say she’s mine too,
But deep inside I know she belongs to you.
You Gave Me Giving
By Rena Solomon
When I thought there was
nothing to give.
You asked for it anyway.
You made it clear that there
was something ;
To be given.
That it would be selfish of me
To hold back and not give it.
There was no more denying.
I had plenty to give.
Even though I felt I had
nothing to offer
I tried giving anyway.
When you had little I gave.
When you had much I gave.
How To Smile
By Anthony V. Wilson
You found all those precious moments in
my life
When I needed you most,
Then stole the secrets and entrapped my
heart.
I now sit staring at my own shadow,
waiting,
Wishing and anticipating the second you
will
Once again arrive in my life
To weaken and destroy the dreams I
cherish.
I know not how to smile now,
Not even for a little while,
Because between us there are
Many miles of hardship in my mind.
I still regret and the past haunts me
Day and night, as the wind blows so soft and
Near to me into this cold and lonely room,
I sit heartbroken, feelings of doom.
People
By Wanda Mack Williams
The day has started and is about to end,
So let all of us still remain as friends.
So far down on this near earth,
God has given us our birth.
People are living, and not forgiving,
People are dying and not crying;
People are the plants for which they grow,
And we should love one antoher forever more.
When you didn’t want I gave.
When you finally expected
my giving,
I continued to give.
When you realized the impor-
tance .
I gave you all I had to give,
And you gave me giving.
I gave everything.
I gave you my soul.
Stagnating A Nation
By Samuel Pearce
Been here 400 years, still patient.
Little white balls killing our nation.
Martin tried.
He died.
Not of natural causes.
He just realized we didn’t have to go
through stagnating clauses.
Black people, stop our unnecessary pauses.
We've been chained up, locked in, locked
out, beat up, handcuffed, relied on and lied to,
all the way home.
Who'’se home?
We're still strong.
In that unnecessary clause that we do
pause, Martin Luther King died for a cause.
Don’t blow it in those little white balls.
Sad Song
By Zeldrina M. Beecham
Am I dreadful because of cruel memories
intact?
Am I incompetent because of the way you
act? .
Am I brutish because I continue to prove
you wrong, because of your anticipation of my
failure for so-long?
Don’t I try as hard as you, to gain apprecia-
tion and friendship too?
Am I to hate you because of what you think,
just because your parents’ ignorance will not
shrink?
Should I be ashamed of my genetic make
up, just because we are different colors?
Am I to ignore that samewhere down the
line that we just might be brothers?
Am I born without a silent curse, to wait for
great set backs to be immersed?
Am I to tolerate one-sided views of my
character, knowing that I could do no more
wrong?
No, I wont listen to this sad song.

A Delightful View Of Families The World Over
“Some children in foreign countries live like you do. Others
live very differently. You can meet children from all over
the world and learn what its like to grow up in a faraway
and.â€
Sally Humphrey
Teaching what one preaches is an art form rarely mastered
by the uninitiated. It is always easier to tell someone what is
right or wrong, as opposed to exposing them to what is right
and wrong. Such is not the case with the series of children’s
books introduced by these writers for use by families in
teaching and/or supplementing the education of their
children. Editorially, we -
believe in the books we
recommend because we
have reviewed them, and
feel confident in what they
purport to do for both parent
and child.
The latest in this series
are books from Lerner
Publications involving the
use of comparatives to
enhance the learning of
youngsters. Children
reading this series are
allowed the excitement of
traveling to other countries;
via books, where they are
€arl & €ursla Wells
able to compare life and living in other countries with their
own.
To the Afro-American child, this is imperative to an
understanding of the African culture, which more often than
not is depicted negatively, because it differs markedly from
western culture.
As you and your family read these books, it might be in-
teresting to compare your family life with those in the books,
and one country with another. Y ou might like to read the book
first in an effort to find out what areas can be compared, then
make headings with countries to the side. Let's see how well
you make out.
“A Family In Liberia,†by Sally Humphrey, shows a map of
the world, the continent of Africa, and the country of Liberia.
In viewing the world map, you might like to look at where you
are in North America and how far one has to travel to get to
where the book’s setting takes place — Liberia, Africa.
In Mobuta, the village where Kamu’s family lives, the tribal
language that is spoken is K pelle, although English is spoken
so that one tribe is able to communicate with another. This is
necessary because, among the 16 tribes of the area, each has a
different tribal language.
Schools in Mobuta are very expensive, and children are
taught only in English. The boys and girls who are able to at-
tend school are taught reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic,
social studies, general science and Liberian History. Sound
Familar?
Work in Kamu’s family is shared by all — except, of course,
Reading Together sv rom
for babies and the very old. There are separate and distinct
labor divisons for men, boys, women and girls. When needed,
other families also pitch in to help complete common tasks,
such as building a house or community building.
Some of the products and tasks of the village are: the reap-
ing of cotton; the making of cloth; the planting of food; the
building of homes; and, the marketing of what is left in ex-
change for other things that cannot be gotten in their village.
When children finish school, most of them go to Monrovia,
the capital of Liberia, for work; many leave without it.
However, Kamu’s uncle owns a shoe factory where his eldest
brother (who has just finished school), Saku, will work and
learn to use the machines, and finally to make shoes.
Some facts about Liberia are:
e Capital — Monrovia, named after President Jarners
Monroe. :
» Official Language — English
e Money — Liberian dollar -
* Area — 43,000 square miles (611,400 square Kilometers)
Population — about 2 millon.
This book also contains the history of Liberia, many colored
illustrations of the ideas expressed in this review, especially
Kamu’s family, the market place, the school children, the
cloth-weaving and the houses the people live in.
Some of the other books in the series arelisted inthe back on
the last page, such as: ‘‘A Family In Nigeria,â€â€™ “‘A Zula Fami-
ly,†“‘A Jamaican Family.†These books are hard cover and
retail for $8.95). They are available at Afro-In Books & Things.
Music is the gift which African-Americans have given to the
world and every African-American child should be made
aware of the history of this rich and beautiful legacy.
In the book, ‘‘Black Music in America: A History Through
Its People’ (Crowell 1987, $12.9), James Haskins traces the
way this gift was created and developed. Each chapter gives a
brief description of the social climate of a |â„¢&= y
particular period in African-American [4
history, followed by brief biographies of the §
musicians who represent that particular
era. The result is a well-blended history of
the music and the people who made the
music.
Haskins begins by describing how
African-Americans, unlike other im- .
migrants, were brought to America against
their will. He states, ‘‘They were seized
from their villages and homes and not

The Gift Of Music
their music to keep their hearts and souls alive through nearly
two hundred fifty years of slavery in the New World.â€
In describing how slavery produced the Spirituals as an ex-
pression of the pain and suffering which they endured while
they longed for a better place, he points out ““. . .the songs were
also a way for the slaves to communicate with each other — to
plan meetings, to help escaped slaves, and to remind one
another that there was hope for freedom.â€
He shows how his gift from the slave ancestors — a music
with both spiritual and practical value — turned out to be a
lifeline for generations of African-Americans, as various
forms of oppression against Black people have constantly pro-
duced new forms of music, and each new musical form, blues,
ragtime, gospel, jazz, has offered a new means of livelihood
for Black people.
Though people throughout the world appreciate African
American music, it has not always been appreciated by
African-Americans. The reasons for this, Haskins explains, is
that while other Americans enjoyed and encouraged this
music, they did not respect it. He tells how one group of Black

musicians moved in the direction of European classical music
in order to prove that African-Americans could play or sing
whatever anyone else played or sang; while other Black musi-
cians continued to develop their own unique heritage of
African-American music. He states: “Without the stubborn ef-
forts of Blacks to show that they could play White music, some
of the distinctively Black forms that make up American music
never would have enjoyed a wide audience. Without the
courageous work of Blacks to show distinctively Black music
should be as celebrated as White music, some of the most im-
portant American musical styles would not have develped at
all.â€
In the last chapter of the book, Haskins shows how the music
has come full circle, as represented by Michael Jackson, Quin-
cy Jones, and Wynton Marsalis.
This book will appeal to a young audience as well as to older
readers, and should please the music enthusiast as well as
those who want to learn more about African-American
history. I place it high on the list of books to include on the
family’s bookshelf.

22 — THE MIAMI TIMES — Thursday, August, 20, 1987
Teen Scene By Pauline Gibbons
Childwatch 8y Marian Wright 3Celman
When pregnant teens and teen mothers arrive at
Baltimore's teen Parenting Enrichment Place (TPEP), they °
are in crisis. They need everything from diapers for the baby
to a place to rest and gather their thoughts, says the Rev. Joan
Wharton, the programs’s director.
There they find the range of supports they need in a setting
that feels like home. Girls learn how to
diaper in a special baby’s room, practising
about and plan for the future.
The program was launched in March,
1986, by Bethel A.M.E. Church, as part of its
ministry to families. It receives its funding
- from the State of Maryland. The paid staff
and many church volunteers, along with ci-
ty agency staff and community represen-
tatives, have put together a comprehensive
program that helps teens and their children
find their way to a better future.
€delman
The program offers between 35 and 50 youths ages 13-19 a
range of supportive classes and services, from counseling and
referral for prenatal care to GED tutoring and instruction in
how to seek employment. Organizers of the program do not
forget that teens like to have fun, and have built in activities
like socials. video movies and swimming.
A Black Achiever
Support For Teens
The program stresses the importance of child development
for the teenagers’ youngsters, as a crucial first step that can
prevent another cycle of teen pregnancy and poverty. The pro-
gram provides babies with proper health care and adequate
stimulation while they arein child care, and ensures that these
essentials of sound child development will continue by offering
instructions in parenting skills to the teens.
A new element of the program is also preventive: the
“Teens Are Our Future’ component that works with siblings
of teen parents and other teens at risk of too-early pregnancy
or parenthood. The youths meet every Monday to hear
speakers on ‘‘teen survival issues,†and to discuss self-esteem
and “how these young people are feeling about themselves,
says Wharton.
“We have to meet (teens) where they are,†Wharton has
found. This means providing youths who participate with help
in finding a job, or holding discussion sessions just before
basketball games. It means inventing a new program, “Hope
in Spite of the Soaps,†in which popular soap operas become
the starting point for discussions of teen issues.
The program has its payoff for the adults involved, too. “It’s
rewarding,’’ says Wharton, “that we have helped some to go to
college, or to get a job.â€

By Billy Rowe
Family Reunion Digs Its Southern Roots
THOMASVILLE, N.C.: Hi, boss! When 2 direct descen-
dants, four generations of Edward Sells and Nancy Ursula
Eller, including yours truly, returned to this quaint city to hold
their sixth annual family reunion, befitting the occasion,
Mayor James G. Norton issued a proclamation which declared
Saturday, Aug. 1, 1987, “Eller Family Day.†Themed the
“Eller Family Homecoming,†eight of the [3
nine surviving brothers and sisters returned |;
to celebrate and dig their roots. Now |’
deceased, the couple had 12 children. They {3
are: Geraldine Louvenia Craddock, [Ks
Baltimore, Md., Devoid Franklin, White |#4
Plains, N.Y.; Edward Filen, Elmsford, |}
N.Y.; Pardue Waters, Bronx, N.Y.; and
Forest Adelaide Davis, my mom, Hattie
LaRue Starks, Terrell Kearns and Carlotta
ViRose Eller, all of New Rochelle, N.Y.
They were accompanied by wives, ROWE
husbands, children, grand and great-great-grandchildren.
Charles Mdvin, Warrensville Heights, Oh., missed this one
because of illness. Carrie Edwina died as a child and in 1966
the family lost Evelyn E. Holt and Elizabeth Paige Broadnax,
both of New Rochelle.
The three-day catered event consisted of an al fresco buffet
dinner at the family homestead, a dance and sit down dinner,
at the High Point Radisson, concluding with church services at
Central United Methodist Church. A host of relatives and
longtime family friends enhanced all our activities.
Thomasville is a large producer of the country’s finest fur-
niture. Oh, yeah, a three-year-old family cousin emptied the
hotel when he pulled the fire alarm. That proved to be the fun-
niest part of this loving gathering. In a way it wasn’t funny
then. However, enroute home it became a laughable incident.
NEWS is where you ear it and I heard that the two-year-old
legal tussle over the name, Sam and Dave, has been settled. A
Superior Court Justice, the San Diego Superior Court, ruled
against Sam Daniels and Dave Prater’s use of the name, “The
New Sam and Dave.†His legal belief is that such would con-
fuse fans. In the 60s, the duo ran up charts with its recording
of ‘‘Soul Man.†. . . The nuptial ceremonies uniting ac-
tor/director Kevin Hooks and ex-New Rochellean Cheryl
Hargrove were nostaigic with their touches from yesterday's
and today’s generations sandwiched between words of hope
for tomorrow. They popped off to honeymoon on Martha's
Vineyard. . .And speaking of that quiet romantic span of turf
and sea, your family friend, Irene Gaines, is landlocked there
writing a column for the Martha's Vineyard Times. It covers
Oak Bluffs, the summer haven of our well heeled and mealed.
Among the land gentre there-on are the Harvey Russells,
Marian Walker, the Joe Overtons, Romlyn and Lois Walter,
Faith Dale, Dr. Mark and Kim Allen, Earl and Ezola Adams,
Jean Allen, Charlotte Holloman, Alvin and Lurline Purvin and
Ozella Dowdell. . .
You had better have a Black Press chat with tennis legend
Arthur Ashe. A coin dropper called to check h’cum the Black
Press were not invited to his spearheaded Artists Against
“Aparthate†island confab. He also wanted to know the status
of “AAA’sâ€â€™ campaign to block the video cassette release of the
TeeVee miniseries, ‘Shaka Zulu.â€â€ The beef is that it’s a South
African ‘“‘aparthate’’ govt’s intended propaganda tool design-
ed to “reinforce tribalism and a detriment to the fight against
aparthate.â€
The Rev. Jesse Jackson will hi’'lite Aretha Franklin's out
coming gospel LP by doing the talking. Singing guests are
Mavis Staples, Joe Lygon, of the Mighty Clouds of Joy, andthe
Franklin Sisters. The wax work was recorded at the New
Bethel Baptist Church in Detroit where the Queen of Soul's
voice made its debut and her late father presided as pastor. .
.Chrysalis/Cod Tempo records expects to heat up the turn-
tables in early ‘88 with Tyka Nelson's debut LP. She’s the
sister of Prince, the high rider on and off the charts. . .
Sony Video software may be hard to get shortly after its ear-
ly Oct. release. The 101 minutes of ear joy hi’lites the perfor-
mances of Sonny Rollins, his scale delight at Opus 40 in the Ap-
ple and the “Concert for Tenor Sax and Symphony Ork.’’ he
used to rock Tokyo. . . Samm Art Williams longlined to

SCHOOL DAZE: It’s hallelujah from the college male cor-

END CHATTER: In the Wayne State Univ. discrimination
case, Judge Horace A. Gilmore ruled that the school must
reinstate Ben Coleman and raise Barbara McArthur’s salary.
Coleman, a former personnel officer, was forced to quit
because of his views on affirmative action. McArthur, a nurs-
ing prof, sued when she discovered that others with similar
rank were paid $56,062 compared to her $32,948. . .The
“Serious Fun†series at the Apple's Lincoln Center featured a
mind expanding collaboration between John Hassell, com-
poser and trumpeter, J.A. Dean, electro-percussionist, and
Farafina, a dance and musical troupe from Burkina-Faso
(formerly Upper Volta), West Africa. However, judging from
audience reaction, Farafina was the hit of the evening and has
set the stage for a sao gig. . .
The already animated Eddie Murphy may soon be seen in
primetime cartoon, if Hanna Barbera Prods. has its way. The
show will center on some of the comic’s personas like the Little
Rascals†Buckwheat. Although Murphy's “kid-appeal’’ was
the initial attraction, the show would be designed for the enjoy-
ment of the entire family. Due to the star’s long association
with NBC it will probably be the first stop for the finished pro-
duct. Don’t look for any of the movie characters, as they were
not part of the deal. . .

Water Could Damage Engine Parts
The average automobile
consumes and discharges
about 700 gallons of water
every year. This water is re-
quired for the operation of
your car, but it could cause a
great deal of trouble and ex-
pense if it affects vital engine
parts.
An automobile engine can
be thought of as a chemical
factory that converts raw heat
energy found in gasoline into
mechanical energy that is
necessary to power a vehicle.
One of the by-products of this
chemical process is the
generation of water to the
ratio of approximately one
gallon of water to every gallon
.of gas consumed.
Have you ever noticed small
amounts of water dripping
from the tailpipe when the car
is started? This occurs
because the water in the ex-
haust gases condenses as it
strikes the cold metal surfaces
of the muffler and tailpipe.
Ford, GM Issue Recall
DETROIT (AP)— Ford
Motors Co. has announced it is
recalling about 11,600 late-
model full-size cars to repair
fuel injection assembly units
that could become bent and
creale a leakage or engine fire
hazard.
Also Thursday, General
Motors Corp. announced the
recall of about 7,900 medium-
duty trucks and school buses
to inspect and modify front
braking systems whose moun-
ting brackets could become
cracked.
Both automakers said they
had received no reports of ac-
cidents or injuries stemming
from the problems.
The Ford recall involved
some 1987 Ford Crown Vic-
toria and Mercury Marquis
models and 1988 Lincoln Town
Cars equipped with five-liter
clectronic fuel-injected
engines.
Dealers would be asked to
spect vehicles still in their
inventories, while owners
would be asked to have their
carsinspected and repaired, if
an average of 3.7 percent. or
reduce vibrations that could
cause the brackets to develop.
cracks.
The work would be done at
no cost to owners, and the
school buses were expected to
be repaired before classes
begin this fall, GM said.
Otherwise, it would dissipate
unnoticed. When a car is
warmed up properly, the
water isn’t evident, and when
it’s disposed of in the form of
vapor, there is no harmful ef-
fect.
Water in the engine could
lead to trouble, especially
when the engine isn’t sealed
properly. A portion of the
water that condenses in the
combustion chamber leaks out
past the piston rings into the
crankcase where it is likely to
contaminate the motor oil.
Furthermore, when water
seeps into the crankcase, rust
formation mav result on the
highiv polished surfaces of
valve lifters, pistons, rings,
crankshaft bearings and cam-
shaft lobes. And water that
condenses in the exhaust
system causes premature cor-
rosion of the components.
The reason why so much
water is consumed by the
typical car - is that
automobiles, for the most
part, are used for stop-and-go
around town driving. Short
trip driving, particularly
when the engine is cold, may
add water to the motor oil,
allowing crankcase dilution.
Since the trips are short, the
crankcase never gets hot
enough to dissipate the water.
Consequently, the water ac-
cumulates and eventually
- makes the oil unfit to serve as
a proper lubricant. The only
way to remove the water is to
drain the crankcase.
There are two ways to pre-
vent crankcase dilution. One
approach is to give the car a
good workout on the highway
by driving 60 to 70 mph.
Another is to change the oil
more frequently.
16-Valve Engine: Smaller,
Better Fuel Economy
DETROIT (AP)— General
Motors Corp. will introduce
the first American 16-valve
engine this fall in three of its
1988 models, testing buyer-
reaction to the smaller, more
economical but more powerful
Quad Four.
The Quad Four will be
available as an option on the
Oldsmobile Calais, Buick
Skylark and Pontiac Grand
AM — compacts that
previously offered only a
three-liter V-6 as an alter-
native to the standard 2.5 liter
four-cylinder engine.
“We're going to see four-
valve-per-cylinder use in-
crease dramatically over the
next 10 years, and as with fuel
injection, General Motors will
be the first domestic
automaker to introduce it and
really exploit it,†said Chris
Cedergren, industry analyst
with J.D. Power & Assoc. in
Westlake Village, Calif.
Light Truck Tires Engineered
for Survival On & Off the Road
Back in 1982, Oldsmobile
engineers began work on the
Quad Four as a way to grind
out more miles to the gallon
than afforded by traditional
two-valve-per-cylinder
engines.
When GM's five car-
divisions were reorganized in-
to two groups Buick-
Oldsmobile-Cadillac and
Chevrolet-Pontiac-Canada —
shortly afterward, the Quad
Four was adopted by the new
BOC Power Group.
The final version went into
production recently at the
BOC Delta engine plant in
Lansing, which is set up to
produce 1,000 of the engines a
day but has the capacity to
make 1,600 per day, according
to Oldsmobile spokesman Gus
Buenz.
There's also room for a se-
cond production line at the
Delta plant if buyers begin
craving the Quad Four.

Americans Still Prefer Foreign Cars
TRAVERSE CITY, MICH.
(AP)— American car-buyers
expect more quality than they
used to and believe foreigh
cars do a better job of deliver-
ing it, although the gap is clos-
ing, according to a new
survey. :
Of 10,000 American car-
owners polled, 52 percent said
they believe foreign cars are
built with more care and at-
tention than domestic
automobiles, according to the
study released by the Ohio
based Opinion Survey Center
Inc.
However, the study noted
that, in 1980, 62 percent of the
respondents to a similar poll
said foreign cars were better.
Hearing Aid
Fund
Established
A Children’s Hearing Aid
Fund has been established at
the University of Miami/-
Jackson Memorial Medical
Center to purchase and repair
hearing aids for children
whose families could not
otherwise afford the equip-
ment.
The fund provides batteries,
molds and replacement hear-
mg aids for those that have
heen broken. These items are
not covered through other
medical assistance agencies.
Each hearing aid costs ap-
proximately $400.
The Miami Colombian Lions
Club has adopted the fund as
its project, with an initial goal
of raising $10,000. Rober!
Pickard, M.D., an ear. nose’
and throat specialist at the
UM/JM Medical Center,
donated $1.000 to kickoff the
campaign.
Anyone interested in the
(‘hildren’s Hearing Aid Fund
can contact the Department of
Otolaryngology. 549-6101.
Japanese automobiles got a
68 percent vote for quality in
1987, compared with 61 per-
~eent in 1980. And European
‘manufacturers, were perceiv-
ed as building quality cars by
77 percent of the respondents,
compared with 80 percent
seven years ago.
In contrast, 61 percent
believe American automakers
build quality cars, an im-
provement from 51 percent
who thought so in 1980.
Survey center president
Willam F. Lehman, who
discussed the findings at a
University of Michigan
management briefing
seminar, said American car-
buyers still care what ‘‘the
Joneses†think of the car they
buy
Consumers also said they
expect more quality than they
used to and 83 percent said
they would be willing to pay
more for a car to get a better
vehicle.
No margin of error was im-
mediately available.
l.eham said buyers perceive
quality in different ways. He
categorized consumers into
Six groups. based on personli-
ty type.
“Car of my dreams,†con-
sumers account for 30 percent
of American carbuyers and
buy the car they fall in love
with, he said.
“Practical price-value'
buyers make up 18 percent.
Other categories include

Incentives To Boost
Early August Sales
DETROIT (\AP)— This
year's autoincentives may not
be the shockers of last year,
but they should help dealers
roll out 1987 models in time in
"hie 1988's, an industry analyst
said.
The latest low-interest in-
centives, which General
Motors Corp. launched with
1.9 pereent loans, made early
August one of the strongest
domestic auto sales periods
this ‘'vear. automakers
reported Thursday.
“The mcentives appear to
he good bait.†said Chris
Cuodergren, industry analyst
with J.D. Power & Assoc. in
Westlake Village, Calif. “We
think it will be effective in
clearmg inventory. Sales will
he strong for August.â€
GM. which offered incen-
ves on most of its cars.
reaped a 16.9 percent year-lo-
vear increase in Aug. 1-10
sales.
GM's program began Aug. 5
and Ford Motor Co. matched
the industry leader's program
a day later. Chrysler Corp..
which purchased American
Motors Corp. on Aug. 5, waited
two days to enter the fray.
While Ford's domestic car
sales were even better than
usual, up 19.2 percent over a
year ago, combined Chrysler-
AMC sales lagged 34.1 percent
from last year.
Last vear, GM started a
similar round of incentives
featuring bait. But this year's
mcentives, while offering a
lower interest rate, are less of
a hoon to customers and
should cost automakers less
because interest rates in
eeneral are lower, Cedergren
said.

Over-Supply In U.S. Auto Market
Predicted For 1990’s
TOKYO (AP)— The U.S.
auto market may face an
oversupply of 1.4 million cars
in 1990 because of the increas-
ing number of Japanese
automakers building their
products in the United States.
the Industrial Bank of Japan
predicted.
In a 140-page report on pro-
spects for Japan's auto in-
dustry, the bank's senior
economist, Shigbeki Yana,
noted that three Japanese
automakers already have
begun building cars in the
United States, while five
others are scheduled to follow
suit by 1990.
As a result, the report said,
supply will surpass U.S. de-
mand in 1990 by about 1.4
million cars, or roughly the
annual output of Chrysler
Corp.
The yen's rise against the
dollar, which drives overseas
prices of Japanese products
higher, has prompted
Japanese automakers to shift
production overseas, especial-
ly to the United States.
In the early 1990's, the eight
Japanese automakers are ex-
pected to build 1.6 million cars
a year inthe United States, the
report said.
The additional cars are ex-
pected to escalate competition
in the U.S. and Japanese
automakers as well as their
counterparts in Asia's newly-
industrializing countries.
In Japan, some 10,000 auto
Jobs and 30,000 jobs in auto-
related industries may be lost
in 1990 as a result of the shift in
production to the United
States, the report added.
The report also predicted
that the Japanese yen would
continue to firm, reaching 125
ven against the dollar in 1990.

28 — THE MIAMI TIMES — Thursday, August, 20, 1987.
Jamaican Robbed In Miami,
By Samantha Gates
July 29, 1987 started off like
many other days for 63-year-
old Samuel A. Stewart, who
commonly buys goods in the
United States and takes them
back to Jamaica, his
homeland, where he resells
them.
But this time, after Stewart
alighted from an Air Jamaica
plane, something not so or-
dinary happened. He became
the victim of pick-pocket.
A distraught Stewart tod
The Miami Times that the rob-
ber got away with $1,200,
which included his life's sav-
ings and $700 which belonged
to others.
Stewart said after getting
off the airplane he went to
board a bus. He saw some
young men hanging around
the bus station at the airport.
According to Stewart, they
were playing around and chas-
ing one another.
Stewart said as the bus
drove up, he got up from
where he was sitting to board
the bus and that is when the
young men ran up behind him
and began pushing him. He
told them not to push.
When attempting to pay the
bus fare, Stewart said, he
found his wallet with the $1,200
missing. He was only left with
a small amount of cash that
was not in the wallet.
With only $10 in his pocket to
support himself, Stewart
began searching for ways to
survive in a foreign country.
“I can’t get a job here
because of the new immigra-
tion forms,†Stewart said in
reference to the law pro
hibiting employers from hir
ing immigrants illegally.
Stewart said that Air
Jamaica has agreed to help
him return home, but he said
he cannot leave until he has
some way to repay those
whose money was also lost.
‘As far as the airline is con-

Computer
Training
Classes
In addition to an already
established basic computer
training classes, the Metro-
Dade Community Action
Agency is now offering an ad-
vanced computer training
class.
This program is designed to
help low-income persons aged
16 and older to expand or con-
tinue their - computer
knowledge.
Training sessions will be of-
fered from 10 a.m. until noon
and 2 p.m. until 4 p.m,
Tuesdays and Thursdays. The
first training, scheduled for
six weeks, will consist of an In-
troduction to P.C., and Word
Processing.
Trainees will be certified
upon completion of the train-
ing and will receive a cer-
tificate showing the number of
hours completed.
cerned, I can arrange
something to get back home,â€
Stewart said, ‘‘but getting
back home to beg is my con-
cern.â€
Stewart said that he has
gone to many agencies for
foreigners to recover the
money, including the
Jamaican consulate.
‘A lady there gave me $5 in
an envelope that was given to 4
her by a wayside preacher,â€
Stewart said, adding that no
other financial aid or help was
offered.
Without money or a place to
stay, Stewart, dressed in his
off-grey, professionally-
tailored suit, told how he
quickly became one of the
many homeless people in
Miami.
“I would nap in a chair at
the airport, and wash upin the
bathroom,â€
voice cracking.
Stewart said he tried to
secure a loan from two banks,
both of which refused him
because he did not have a co-
signer.
He then went to stores that
he has traded with in Florida.
He said that they refused to
give him credit or cash ad-
vances.

FAMU Prepares For 82nd
Season
Florida A&M University began preparations for its 82nd
year of football on Aug 11, when freshmen reported to camp
for the start of drills. Upperclassmen reported the following
day, and two-a-da ys in shorts bagan Thursday, lasting through
Saturday.
Practice in full pads started Monday, with sessions in the
morning and afternoon. n
Rattlers To Play 9
Games In-State
Florida A&M has scheduled nine games in
Florida this year, the most of any school in }
the state among Division 1-A and 1-AA}
schools. Tampa and Miami. Central
Florida. (10) plays the most in-state games,
wiht nine at home and one against FAMU 7 J
(Nov. 14) at Tallahassee. Next to FAMU in
the Division One listings are Florida (8), Eauisdy
Florida State (7) and Bethune-Cookman (5). At one time one of
the most-televised Division 1-AA teams in the country, Florida
A&M will make a pair of apperance on television on the
BLACK ENTERTAINMENT TELEVISION (Bet) cable net-
work. BET is slated to tape-delay broadcast the Rattlers’ con-
test against Central State of Ohio (Oct. 24) and the homecom-
ing game against Southern University (Nov. 14). FAMU has
appeared on BET threetimes in the last three years, including
two times in 1984.
Rattlers In Baseball
Former Rattler gridder Vince Coleman, now a star out-
fielder with the St. Louis Cardinals, leads the major leagues in
stolen bases (68, through Monday, Aug. 3) and has helped his
club to the largest lead in any division (6', games in the Na-
tional League East) in the majors with just under two months
to go. Coleman has recorded six game-winning RBIs, and has
improved his average from a poor .237 last year, to a nifty .288
this season. Former Rattler Andre Dawson, an outfielder with
Chicago’s Cubs, has belted 31 homer runs this year and has
driven in a major-league leading 98 runs. Veteran hitter Hal
McRae of Kansas City’s Royals recently retired as an active
player and will become the Royals’ full-time hitting coach.
Prep Coaches Fighting Sun
High school players will have to endure the heat not once but
twice a day, with most schools holding two-a-day practices for
the next two weeks. Some schools will practice three times a
day. With the oppressive South Florida weather, coaches
almost spend more time making sure players don’t drop than
they do making sure they do their work. Weather problems
aside, coaches were looking forward to when they could begin
preparations for the high school season, which will begin the
second week of September. Teams were required to practise
in shorts three days before workouts in full equipment could
begin.
Tie For Joyner, Miss For Lewis
Jackie Joyner-Kersee equaled the world record of 24-5'- in
the women's long jump at the Pan American Games. The
record-tying effort came on Joyner-Kersee's sixth and final
jump of the competition at the Indiana University Track and
Field Center. On her third jump, she went 23-9'., surpassing
her USA long jump record by a half-inch. **Once I had finished.
[didn’t think I had a record,’ said Joyner-Kersee. whose hus-
band and coach, Bob Kersee, was in tears at trackside after
the record was announced. Meanwhile, Carl-Lewis had it in his
hand. Ina swirling wind that made consistent effort all but im-
possible, the world’s best long jumper leaped within six inches
of Bob Beamon's world record on his fourth jump of the day a
the Pan American Games, but trailed his right hand in the
sand in the effort. By his estimates, the error cost him three or
four inches. But the gap between the mark of his hand and the
mark of his feet appeared to be closer to six. The jump was 28
feet 8' Ainches, eighth best in history.
Johnson Equals Own Record
Ben Johnson of Canada equalled his own world record in the
100 meters with a time of 9.95 seconds in the Weltklasse G rand

Group Going Strong At 70
The American Tennis Association, the predominantly Black
organization that helped launch the careers of Althea Gibson
and Arthur Ashe, held its 70th annual championships recently
at Oakland. Phil Williamson of Mount Vernon, N.Y., won the
men’s singles title, defeating Malcolm Allen, of San Jose,
Calif., 6-3, 6-3, 6-7 (3-7), 6-2. Iwallana McCalla, of Los Altos,
Calif., defeated Karen Buckholtz, of Roosevelt, N.Y., 6-1, 7-5
for the women’s title. ATA executive secretary Margaret Gor-
don said the organization has more than 3,000 members enroll-
edin 90 clubs throughout the USA. “Besides Ashe and Althea,â€
Gordon said, ‘‘Zina Garrison, Lori McNeil, Rodney Harmon
and Leslie Allen are other world-class players who are former
ATA champions.†A group of Black doctors, college professors
and businessmen organized the ATA in 1916. The first national
championships were in Baltimore in Aug. 1917.
Noah Looks To Connors
Yannick Noah is considering having Jimmy Connors coach
him, the French tennis star's present coach, Patrice
Hagelauer, said. Noah is not breaking his association with
Hagelauer completely, however. ‘It is the best solution to get
Yannick re-started,†Hagelauer said, ‘I am waiting for a
pk me call from him to see how things can be organized. If
ti. firm up with Connors, it would be best to start as quick-
ly as possible, after the U.S. Open.â€
Hit Man Survives Kicks
When Thomas “Hit Man’ Hearns entered the ring for a
kickboxing match with former world champion Bill **Super-
fool’†Wallace, he was jeopardizing his place in boxing history.
Hearns is scheduled to fight World Boxing Council mid-
dleweight champion Juan Roldan Oct. 29 in Las Vegas. If
Hearns beats Roldan, he will become the first fighter to win
four world championships. However, despite the fact that
Hearns was punched and kicked several times in the face, he
emerged unhurt from the World Cup Karate Classic fight at
the Fontainebleau Hilton. Hearns will begin working out for
the Roland fight on Sept. 10.
No-Show Witness Saves Pryor
Former boxing champion Aaron Pryor, facing a possible life
sentence on charges that he kidnapped and raped a woman in
his home last February, walked out of court Monday with a
$5.000 fine and no criminal record. Assistant State Attorney
Howard Pohl said he was forced to drop most of the charges
against Pryor because the alleged rape victim has disap
peared. ‘We can’t proceed with the case without a victim."
Pohl said. “We've got to maintain a good-faith prosecution and
she’s practically the whole case. It doesn’t make any dif-
ference whoAaronis, he's not going to be treated any different
by this office.â€
Leonard Definitely Has
Retired
Sugar Ray Leonard says he ‘‘definitely has retired from
boxing’’ and will turn his attention to managing and training
fighters for the Coors professional team. Madison Square
Garden will feature the fighters at the Felt Forum, offering
television exposure on the Madison Square Garden Network.
“There is nolongevity for a participant in the sport of boxing,"
the 31-year-old Leonard told The New York Times. “I'm not
going to fight anymore. When I came back to fight Hagler, |
said it would be for one time and one time only. I don't lie.
Now, in a natural progression, I want to move on to work with
young fighters, to give them some of my knowledge of what

The purpose of the ‘‘merit

monetary prizes each year to
all the employees of Dade
County's most improved
public schools as measured by
reading and math scores on
the Standford Achievement
Test. The 63 schools selected
will be announced Sept. 14, at
a 10 a.m. press conference in
the School Board Adminstra-

The program, called the
Quality Instruction Incentives

the application are legalistic
in nature and concern such
matters as pedestrian traffic

‘The faster you submit the
application to Tallahassee and
the more thoroughly you

she added.
“I feel that the homeowners
were insulted the way the pro-

throats,†she said.
Although the stadium has
been constructed, she main-
tained that it was illegal and
vowed that the homeowners
would continue to oppose the
issue of commercial develop-
ment which would take longer
than the stadium to
materialize.
Since the commercial
development would take as
long as 10 years, Ferguson
believes that her group would
prevail eventually.
“It's not as if they are

we have a strong lawsuit

foods, while guarding against

“An example might be,
‘Milk products are good

for storng bones,’,â€â€ Bowen
said. ‘But we are trying to
draw a line between
scientifically-based, general
statements and those which
are merely theories or are

“For example, the Food and

hird World Loan Program Could
Work In U.S. Inner Cities
By April Young
Development from the bot-
tom up in Third World coun-
tries is the concept behind a
bill, now inthe U.S. House Ap-
propriations Committee,
‘which can have implications
for spurring growth in
American inner cities.
“In Bangladesh a loan
“might be used to buy a corn
husker,†said Clea Sucoff, of
Results, an international
rassroots lobby group to end
orld hunger. ‘‘In Liberty Ci-
y it might be used to buy a
vacuum cleaner and a van to
"Start a cleaning service.â€
& The bill, entitled the ‘Micro
nterprise Loans for the Poor
Act,â€â€™ proposes that funds in
he budget of the U.S. Agency
or International Develop-
ent be appropriated for
oans to the “poorest of the
poor’ in developing countries
around the globe.
Results and the 38 co-
sponsors of the bill, including
Sen. Bob Graham, are now
fighting to maintain its orien-
tation toward the poor. Loans
are restricted to $300, making
them unattractive to large
businesses. ‘‘Also,â€â€™ Sucoff
aid, ‘we want to impose
restrictions by income level
on who can qualify for the
loans to keep the focus on the
‘poorest of the poor’ in these
countries.â€â€™
The program has worked
well in Bangladesh through
the Grameen Bank started in
1976 by Muhammad Yunus.
There have been over 250,000
borrowers of amounts from $1
to $200, at an average of $50.
Repayment has exceeded 98
percent. ‘‘Poor borrowers
seem to be better credit
risks,†Sucoff said.
The Grameen Bank's efforts
have focused on women,
because ‘‘families have
broken up, and the women are
left to support the children,â€
leaving them poor, she added.
In Bangladesh, the women
organize themselves into
groups of five, and they work
with the bank for training and
choosing leaders. They then
choose two of their members
to receive the initial loans.
After several weeks, the
next two may receive loans if
the previous pair’s payments
were on time. ‘‘This not only
brings about some peer
pressure for repayment,†said
Sucoff, “but there is also emo-
tional support for a fellow
mem ber’s ventures.â€
Sucoff feels that there is an
obvious need in the inner city
for financial services.
“Traditionally in developing
countries, efforts have been
focused on the middle sector
in order to empower them to
employ the lower sector,’ she
said.
A program with a similar
concept which might have
some of the same effects is be-
ing undertaken by the Dade
County Department of Hous-
ing and Urban Development
(Little HUD).
Dade County is one of six
cities or counties in the nation
that have been awarded
$25,000 each by the U.S.
Department of Housing and
Urban Development and the
Opportunity Resource In-
stitute in Washington, DC for
various programs involving
housing project tenants.
The program, similar to
that of the Grameen Bank,
will come under this funding
umbrella, and involves the ex-
terision of loans by Little HUD
to residents of its housing pro-
jects for entrepreneurial ven-
tures.
Like the Bangladesh pro-
ject, criteria for Little HUD
loan qualification will be
decided by the tenants’ coun
cil. However, loans will be
geared toward individuals as
opposed to groups.

National News
ATLANTA (AP)— World
ecumenical leaders will
gather in Atlanta next month
to talk to leaders of Black U.S.
churches as part of a meeting
of the executive committee of
the World Council of Chur-
ches.
One day of the eight-day
meeting will be given over to
discussions with Black church
leaders and a speech by the
Rev. Allan Boesak, president
of the World Alliance of
Reformed Churches†and a
leader of the anti-apartheid
movement in South Africa.
The meeting begins Sept. 18
and will last until Sept. 25,
with mostly closed sessions,
spokeswoman Andrea Cano
said Friday.

Family Tries To Cope
With Racial Violence
TOLEDO, OHIO (AP)— A
Black man who says teen-
agers are harassing his family
fears that racial violence
could erupt in his
predominantly Anglo
neighborhood on the city’s
south side.
A police investigation of the
complaints stems from a re-
cent incident in which Rickey
Williams found his daughter's
doll hanging by a rope from a
light pole on his back porch.
As a car drove from his house,
the people inside the car
shouted racial slurs.
“I feel like if I would have
had a gun, I would have killed
them,†said Williams, 25.
‘The doll was a Christmas
present for Reniesha. She's
just about 4 years old. I mean,
what do you tell her?â€
Police spokesman St. Der-
rick Diggs said all reports of
racial incidents are in-
vestigated.
“We have had some reports
of incidents occurring down
there, but we’ve had reports of
incidents occurring all across
the city,†Diggs said.
Police, spurred by a rash of
racial violence last summer
and earlier this year, in June
initiated new procedures re-
quiring immediate police
response to a racial, religious
or ethnic incident.
Those procedures call for
notification of all levels of
police command, and involve-
ment by the police depart-
ment’s community affairs
division and the city’s board of
community relations.
Since moving to the lower
south end in July, Williams's
motorcycle has been stolen
and set on fire. Racial epithets
are common, he said. Now,
Williams fears for the safety
of this wife and five children.
“My family was already in
fear of going up and down the
street,†he said. ‘‘Every day
people say things to my
children. I've told them to stay
around the house, stay on the
back porch so nothing will
happen. My kids like to ride
their bikes just like any other
kids around here. They can’t.
Not now.â€
place on an official level,†a
committee statement said.
Also, beginning Sept. 16, the
WCC’s division which focuses
on justice and service issues
will hold a three-day meeting
in Atlanta to discuss such
issues as church respon-
sibilities to AIDS victims,
anti-apartheid efforts and the
Iran-Contra affair.
Ms. Cano said the executive
committee also hopes to
schedule a meeting with
former President Jimmy
Carter ‘‘because he’s very
much admired by a lot of
folks.â€
The WCC’s 27-member ex-
ecutive committee meets
twice a year to conduct the
council’s business between
central committee meetings,
which occur every 12 to 18
months, she said.
The meetings in Atlanta will
follow three days of mostly
private meetings in
Washington, D.C., during
which cammittee members
will meet to discuss ‘“‘how do
the churches lobby in our na-
tion’s capital,†she said.
Ms. Cano said Altanta was
chosen because of invitations
from Mayor Andrew Young, a
Congregationalist minister,
and Sylvia Talbot of Atlanta,
vice moderator of the WCC’s
central committee and a
member of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church.
The WCC, formed in 1948
and based in Geneva,
Switzerland, includes more
than 300 denominations, in-
cluding Anglicans, some Bap-
tists, Disaples of Christ, Rus-
sian and Greek Orthodox,
Friends, Baptists, Disciples of
Christ, Russian and Greek Or-
thodox, Friends,
Presbyterians and numerous
others.
Justice Department
Sides With Blacks
NEW ORLEANS (AP)—
The U.S. Justice Department
has notified the federal ap-
peals court in New Orleans it
agrees with Blacks who want
one Louisiana Supreme Court
justice elected completely
within Black-ma jority
Orleans Parish.
In a brief filed with the U.S.
5th Circuit Court of Appeals,
the department said it
believes the U.S. District
Judge Charles Schwartz Jr. of
New Orleans was wrong in his
ruling last May.
Schwartz ruled that judicial
elections don’t come under the
federal Voting Rights Act of
1965, which is designed to pro-
tect voters from racial
discrimination in election pro-
cedures.
2 More Klansmen Indicted
In Death Of Teenager
MOBILE, ALA. (AP)— A
grand jury has indicted two
more Ku Klux Klansmen in
the six-year investigation into
the beating and hanging death
of a Black teen-ager in Mobile,
a prosecutor said.
Indicted were Bennie Jack
Hays and his son-in-law,
Frank Cox, for their alleged
participatior in the March 21.
1981, murder of 19-year-old
Michael Donald.
District Attorney Chris
(Galanos said both the 70-year-
old Hays and Cox, a truck
driver, agreed to turn
themselves in. A judge set
bond at $20,000.
These are the latest charges
in the probe that earlier led to
the conviction and death
sentence of Hays’s son, Henry
Hays, and a life sentence for
James ‘‘Tiger’’ Knowles. The
four are present or former
members of the United Klans
of America.
Galanos said Hays and Cox
were charged in the Mobile
County grand jury indictment
as accomplices in the murder,
based on new evidence
gathered during a civil lawsuit
against the United Klans of
America earlier this year.
Galanos declined further
comment on the indictments.
In February, a federal court
jury in Mobile awarded $7
million to Beulah Donald,
mother of the slain youth.
The elder Hays held the title
of Klan Titan in 1981 when the
murder of Donald allegedly
was plotted to ‘‘show Klan
strength in Alabama.â€
In March, 1984, prosecutors
were forced to drop murder
conspiracy charges against
Cox because the legal
timeframe for bringing the
charge had expired.
There is no statute of limita-
tions on murder, however.
During trial of the civil suit,
Fired Officers
Sue For $4
Million
CORSICANA, TX (AP)—
Two former police officers
fired for misconduct and
another officer still on the
force have filed a $4 million
lawsuit against the city,
claiming the police depart-
ment discriminates against
Blacks, their attorney said.
Willie Michael Ballard,
Marshall D. Cook and Officer
Michael Glover filed the suit
Thursday in federal court in
Dallas, attorney Donald Hicks
Sr. of Dallas said.
The lawsuit seeks reinstate-
ment for Ballard and Cook,
hoth dicimssed after being
charged in criminal cases,
Hicks said. It also seeks
changes in police policy on
Glover, the only full-time
Black officer on the force.
the elder Hays said witnesses
who accused him of having
prior knowledge of Klan plans
to kill Donald were liars.
Donald was kidnapped from
a city street and taken to a
wooded area where, he was
beaten to death. The body was
hanged in a tree lynch-styled
in a vacant lot across the
street from an apartment
owned by Hays.
Cox allegedly was shown
Donald's body in the truck of a
car on the night of the slaying,
but he denied any knowledge
of the crime.
City To Pay
Grandchildren
DALLAS (AP)— The City
Council has agreed to pay
$225,000 to the grandchildren
of 70-year-old woman who was
fatally shot last fall by a
Dallas pdlice officer.
Attorneys for the city and
the grandchildren of Etta Cd-
lins, who was shot and killed
after placing a burglary call to
police Oct. 26, reached the set-
tlement after four months of
negotiations, officials said.
The incident outraged some
Black leaders and became the
impetus for a congressional
hearing to investigate the
police department's deadly
force policy and relations bet-
ween police officers and |
minorities.
s Meet In Atlanta
The WCC does not include
the Roman Catholic Church,
the world’s largest, or the
Southern Baptist Convention,
the largest Protestant
denomination in the United
States, although both groups
cooperate with the council to
varying degrees, Ms. Cano
said.
Missourian

Editor
COLUMBIA, MO. (AP)—
The University of Missouri
School of Journalism'’s daily
newspaper will have a Black
man as managing editor for
the first time in its 79 years.
Ben Johnson, 37, will

Leaders Charge Racism
In Youth Brawl Arrests
BINGHAMTON, N.Y.
(AP)— Black leaders and city
officials disagree on whether a
recent clash between youths
and city police exemplifies
growing hostilities between
police and Blacks here.

chief are spiritually and.

chairwoman of Concerned
Citizens for Equal Justice.

Cambridge
Cops Charged
With Bias
CAMBRIDGE ,K MASS,
( AP)— The Cambridge Police
Department has
discriminated against Black
officers so their chances of
promotion are not so good as
for other officers, the
Massachusetts Commission
Against Discrimination
claims.
The commission, in a com-
plaint, said the department
‘*has maintained a pattern
and practice of disparate
treatment of Black police of-
ficers in the terms and condi-
tions of their employment’ for
the last 12 years.
The cammission acted as a
result of complaints filed with
it last winter and spring by
two Black officers and a fired
Black officer, who daimed
there was a double standard
for discipline in the depart-
ment.
munity say they believe the in-
cident, in which 12 people
were arrested after a fight
outside a downtown bar, was
racially motivated and part of
a trend of police violence
against Blacks and other
minorities.
Mayor Juanita M. Crabb
called the incident ‘‘unfor-
tunate,†but said those ar-
rested chose to interfere with
police activities instead of
leaving the scene.
The police department has
not collected any evidence
that any police officers acted
improperly, she said.
Witnesses who are reluctant to
give statements because of
fear of police retaliation
should give statements direct-
ly to her to the Broome County
Urban League, she said.
Nine of the 12 arrested were
Black. Some, including King
D. Rice and Christopher G.
Tolerson, were members of
the state championship foot-
ball and basketball teams at
Binghamton High School in
1985 and 1986. Their arrests
followed a police decision to
arrest two Anglo women who
were fighting near Commer-
cial Alley and Henry Street.
Police said the clash erupted
when a crowd of young people
refused to disperse. At least
three people were injured.
Laura C. Keeling, Urban
League president, questioned
why nine of the 12 arrested
were Black, considering that
witnesses have said Blacks
made up about 10 percent of
the 200 to 300 people at the
scene.
“How fair is that?’’ asked
Keeling.

affront to all progressive peo-
plein this country, leaders of a
national civil rights organiza-
tion said last week.
“We are . . . totally commit-
ted in the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference and
around the country to sparing
the country this kind of
neanderthal leadership,’’ said
Walter E. Fauntroy, SCLC
board chairman.
Fauntroy said Bork is a
threat because he opposes the
one-man, one-vote principle.
He accused Bork of opposing
civil-rights gains, particulary
the 1964 Voting Rights Act.
“Such a person would be a
threat to all the progressive
forces of this country,†he
said.
Fauntroy, a non-voting
delegate to Congress from the
District of Columbia, was one
of several speakers during the
second day of the annual SCLC
convention. The group was
founded 30 years ago in New
Orleans by Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr. and others.
The Rev. Joseph Lowery,
SCLC president, urged Blacks
to take every step necessary
to vote and to exercise more
sophisticated discretion in
selecting candidates.
“If you know people in your
community who haven't
registered to vote, hold a
prayer meeting on their lawns
if you have to,†Lowery said.
*‘If they go to work at 5, wake
them up at midnight and tell
them to register to vote. You,
ladies, don’t cuddle up to your
husband on a cold winter night
if he hasn't registered to
vote.â€
Lowery said Blacks must no
longer vote a straight party
ticket.
“We must no longer be wed-
dedtoa party. I knowit’s hard
with what the Republicans
have been doing lately,â€
Lowery said. ‘“We must tell
our candidates their first
allegiance isn’t to the party,
it’s to the people who elected
them.â€
He said people must free
themselves from dependency
on alien substances such as
drugs, alcohol and tobacco. He
challenged the government to
be sensitive to the poor and to
provide full employment with
livable wages.
Lowery criticized what he
said was a move to eliminate
public housing in some of the

Jackson To Announce
Candidacy
GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP)—
Jesse Jackson said he is op-
timistic he will announce his
presidential candidacy around
Labor Day, but the 314 death
threats he received during his
1984 campaign have caused
his family concern.
Jackson, speaking at the
Greenville Downtown Airport,
said becoming a presidential
candidate ‘‘is not a decision
one engages in without a lot of
advice and a lot of prayer.
“Just like the Kennedys
have had to wrestle long and
hard with running for presi-
dent because of the risk, I
have had to do the same thing.
In the last campaign, there
were 314 recorded death
threats on my life, and 14 peo-
ple actually arrested who
engaged in assassination
plots.â€
Jackson, did not say where
he got the figures.
Athletics
Symbol Called
Racist
DES MOINES, IOWA
Bl (AP)— The executive director
of the Iowa Girls High School
Athletic Union says the
group’s symbol may be
redesigned because of
criticism that it is racist.
A. Jane Molden of Des
Moines has complained that
the symbol depicting a female
silhouette with a white face
and dark hair could make non-
Anglo students feel excluded.
“It’s a symbol of power that
is constantly tossed at our
young people,†she said. “If
children see that enough they
feel that is where the
dominance in the world is.â€â€™
The athletics union is the
governing body for girl's
junior high and high school
sports and the symbol appears
at state tournaments.

Money, too, is concern.
““The finances are not what we
want them to be but they are
improving, and that is a
critical factor in making a
final examination,†Jackson
said.
Jackson was seeking to
raise $1 million by the time of
his announcement. The
Chicago Tribune reported that
Jackson had raised only
$400,000. He has two large
fund-raisers planned for later
this month in the Chicago
area.

Ca ribbe an Re port From The Caribbean News Agency
AIDS Takes Toll On Caribbean Islands |
The killer disease AIDS —
Acquired Immune Deficiency
Syndrome — is taking its toll
on the Caribbean nations,
along with other countries.
* The number of confirmed
cases in Jamaica has gone to
27, with 19 deaths, the govern-
ment’s Jampress news agency
has reported.
The incidence of AIDS there
has been rising sharply this
year as persons with the AIDS
virus begin to develop the
disease, officials have said.
In July, the health minister,
Ken Baugh, reported 20 cases
of full-blown AIDS with 17
deaths, up from 12 cases and
eight deaths February.
Jamaica detected its first
AIDS case in 1982.
e Every year, some 800 men
and women enter Mother
Teresa’s Home for the Dying
in the grim Port-au-Prince
slum of Cite Cadet in Haiti’s.
All but a few dozen meet death
there.
Founded six years ago, the
home cares for people
stricken by such diseases as
tuberculosis and takes in the
old and the destitute who have
nowhere else to go.
Nowadays, more and more
of the people who limp, crawl,
or are carried to its doors are
victims of AIDS.
All but five percent of the
men and half of the women
test positively for AIDS an-
tibodies. Many are already dy-
ing of the disease, nuns who
care for them say.
* A call has been made for
St. Lucia to reconsiderits con
tinued participation in the
United States farm labor pro-
gram as a precautionary
measure against the spread
here of the deadly disease,
AIDS.
The suggestion has come
from opposition Progressive
Labor Party (PLP) leader
George Odlum, who told a
news conference here that the
government -should seriously
weigh the cost of treating
AIDS patients against the real
effective income that the
island gets from the farm
labor program.
Last month, medical
authorities here reported that
14 St. Lucians had contracted
AIDS since 1981.
Odlun’s call came amid an
announcement that more then
400 Vincentian farm workers
are expected to get contracts
to work an sugar cane farms
in Florida during the 1987-88
season.
e In Bermuda, condoms,
seen as a barrier against the
spread of AIDS, have been in
short supply lately, says presi-
dent of the Bermuda General
Agency (BGA) Ward Young.
Young says this is because
of increased use of the sheaf in
the United States which has
left some of BGA’s suppliers
without enough of the product
to send on to Bermuda.
In even shorter supply were
rubber surgical gloves, snap
ped up all over America by
doctors, nurses and dentists
who feared contagion from
their patients.
The BGA is sponsoring a
newspaper advertisement en-
couraging the use of condoms.
Headed ‘Don’t Die of Embar-
rassment,â€â€™ the advertisement
features a picture of the Grim
Reaper and advocates the use
Grenada Puts Clamp On Calypsonians
Subject To
GRENADA— Grenda of-
fically returned to democracy
in 1984 but its calypso singers
have their doubts about
whether full freedoms were

The government has set up a

Jamaica
JAMACIA— Jamaica has
completed the first of a series
of small hydro-electricity
plants in its quest to increas-
ingly harness the energy
potential of its rivers and
slash imports of expensive oil.
The new 280 kilowatt plant
at Serge Island in the parish of
St. Thomas has been commis-
sioned and handed over to the
state-owned light and power
company, Jamaica Public
Service (JPS).
The million-dollar (US)
plant, financed by Canada, is
one of 17 the government has
planned.
Feasibility studies or actual
work has started on several of
these.
The Serge Island system
will produce 1.5 megawatts of
dectricity annually, saving
about 3,750 barrels of im-
ported oil.
Jamaica already has two
small hydro plants, whose

With no daily papers and on-

island-nation of 90,000 people,
calypso music is a vehicle for
popular protest, as in the song
‘‘In Grenada Today.â€

peak demand of 220
megawatts is negligible.
The installed electricity
capacity here is 410
megawatts.
Jamaica began to take a
serious look at its hydro poten-
tial in 1982, when the mining
and energy ministry com-
pleted a Canadian Interna-
tional Developmemt Agency-
sponsored study of the island’s
water resources.
CIDA has financed the pre-
feasibility for what would be
the largest of hydro plants — a
28-megawatt station on the
back Rio Grande in the south
eastern parish of Portland.
This plant, estimated to pro-
duce 100 million kilowatts of
electricity annually, would
avoid in Grenada. It blares in-
side buses and restaurants
and takes up a third of radio
air time.
But, on June 15, the govern-
ment set up a board to censor
“politically sensitive songs
that cannot be substantiated.â€
Also subject to censorship are
obscene and libelous lyrics
and “inflamatory songs that
can mislead the public,’ said
board head Jerome
McBarnette, who is also chief
curriculum officer of the
teacher’s college. :
Calypso singers said they
received instructions from
Culture Minister James
McGuire not to sing about the
murder trial of leftist Prime
Minister Maurice Bishop.
Bishop was killed on Oct. 19,
1983, and his murder paved
the way for the U.S. — led in-
vasion six days later. Four-
teen former officials and
soliders were sentenced to
death last December for the
killing, and they are appeal-
ing.
As expected, government
opponents decry censorship as
an erosion of democracy. ‘‘I
think the idea of censoring
political calypso is a
retrograde step and is a
manifestation of the govern
ment’s paranoia,†George
Brizan, the head of the
parliamentary opposition,
said.. “It’s also anti-
constitutional.â€
The govemment maintains
calypso is too politicized.
‘‘Calypsonians seems to
sing about politics, nothing
else,†said Works and Com-
munications Minister Keith
" Mitchell. ‘“They can sing
about other things, the need of
us to unite, build our country
and ask what you can do for
your country instead asking
what it can do for you.â€
But Michael ‘‘Senatorâ€â€™
Michell, the head of the
Grenada Progressive Calypso
Association, which represents
the singers, argues that
politics is an inevitable com-
ponent of calypso.
“You have to understand
the sense of calypso; it
reflects politics are

So far, about 100 songs have

UNITED NATIONS— A
United Nations panel has call-
ed for the introduction of a
comprehensive manpower
training program for the
Britich- Virsic. Islands that
would prepare more local peo-
ple to assume managerial
positions in the territory.
has found out what the rules of
the game after two decades of
experimentation with various
models and is now better
prepared to play by those
rules.
Walrond noted that, in the
1970s, and early 80's, Guyana
tried the majority equity par-
ticipant and tax collector role
but failed to attract the level
of resources and needed to ex-
plore, find, define and mine
the country's mineral
resources.
It has been realized, he said,
that the principle of ownership .
and control of
resources—whether or not it
contains economic
benefits—should give way to a
regime where the focus is
more on the economic benefits
and less on the form of
association.
The new policy represents a
significant departure from the
four projects that would have
an installed capacity of 15
megawats.
These stations would cost an
estimated US $15 million.
“We don’t know when the
Japanese projects will come
on stream, but we are hoping
that some agreement will be
arrived at soon,†said Boyne.
“Overall there are eight
projects in progress at various
stages and we hope to start
seven others within a year.â€
According to Hart, the pro-
jects slated for completion
this year will produce 14,920
megawatt hours of electricity
annually.
And Jamaica will not have
to buy 31,000 barrels of oil.

month on whether to extradite
Trinidadian Dennis Davidson,
who is wanted on foreign cur-
rency charges, press reports
here said today.
Both daily newspapers
reported that Orlando federal
magistrate Donald Dietrich
heard testimony from David-
son, described by local police
as their most wanted man,
and his American lawyers.
Dietrich is expected to give
a ruling on Sept. 10.
Davidson was arrested in
Miami on June 10 on a traffic
offence, after skipping
Trinidad before police issued
warrants for his arrest.
His U.S. attorneys attemp-
ted to depict him as a victim of
political victimization.

Report Slams
Bird Jr.
ANTIGUA— Antigua and Bar-
buda’s Public Works Minister
Vere Bird Jr ‘‘conducted
himself in a manner unbecom-
ing a minister of
government,†according to
the findings of an official en-
quiry into a controversial U.S.
$11 million airport rehabilita-
tion project, he administered
here.
Excerpts of the report
released to CANA quoted the
sole investigator, retired
Grenada Chief Justice Sir Ar-
chibald Nedd as saying that he
has ‘‘clear evidence†to sup-
port his assertion.
Sir Archibald said that Bird,
while being minister responsi-
ble for public utilities, com-
munications and aviation, also
acted as the legal represen-
tative for and partnerin a par-
ticipating company, Maryna
Limited, owned essentially by
foreign businessman Patrick
de Nedde. R08 A
The disclosures came as
pressure mounted on Bird to
resign or be dismissed over
his handling of the 1986 airport
project, which involved secur-
ing the funding, mainly from
French banks and the award
of contracts for various
aspects of the program to
resurface the runaway and
rehabilitate associated
facilities at the VC Bird inter-
national airport.
The government-aligned
Antigua Trades and Labor
Union (AT&LU) urged Prime
Minister Vere Bird Sr. to sack
Bird Jr. his eldest son.
The call was contained in a
union resolution.
Most of Bird Jr.’s cabinet
colleagues are also calling for
his removal.
Bird, issued a statement
quoting sections of the probe
report, which, he said,
“cleared me of any criminal
wrongdoing in every aspect of
the project.â€

Thursday, August, 20, 1987 — THE MIAMI TIMES — 41
By John Perlman
OHANNESBURG
EMINI — South Africa’s
ike by more than 200,000
lack mineworkers presents
je government with more
han just the country’s biggest
bor dispute. The walkout
pmes as major Black unions
e showing increasing will-
gness to adopt political
tances, calling for a socialist
ture and adopting the non-
acial Freedam Charter.
The National Union of
ineworkers (NUM) said
840,000 workers initially joined
ts strike, closing gold and
oal mines. The South African
Chamber of Mines said the
number was between 220,000
and 230,000 — still a serious
blow to the crucial mining in-
dustry.
Cyril Ramaphosa, a top
union official, has emerged as
a key leader and spokesman
for the strikers.
Earlier this year, at its an-
nual congress, the NUM
adopted the Freedom Charter,
the manifesto of the Congress
Movement led by the now-
banned African National Con-
gress (ANC) in the Fifties.
The charter has also been for-
mally taken up by several of
the country’s other biggest
unions.

In July, the country’s big-
gest labor body, the Congress
of South African Trade Unions
(COSATU), adopted the
charter for its 712,000 paid-up
members. NUM vice-
president Elijah Barayi is
president of Cosatu, which
was formed 18 months ago.
Prior to Cosatu’s congress,
Manpower Minister Pietie du
Plessis declared an intended
wage-strike by 80,000
metalworkers illegal, and
wamed Black trade unions not
to ‘‘dabble in politics.â€
But workers were quick to
exhibit their militant mood,
evident when United
Democratic Front (UDF)
leader Murphy Morobe,
sought by police since 1985, ad-
dressed workers on the open-
ing day.
The Freedom Charter in-
clude promises that “The peo-
ple shall govern,†‘ ‘The people
shall share in the country’s
wealth,†and, “The land shall
be shared among those who
work it.’ Whether it goes far
enough to guarantee workers
the leading positionin a future
South Africa, and particularly
whether it provides a
framework for socialism, has
been a thorny debate in the
South African Black trade
union movement and in the
liberation struggle as a whole.
Cosatu secretary-general
Jay Naidoo said: ‘The
Freedom Charter encom-
passes the minimum demands
of the democratic majority.
The immediate task facing
Cosatu is to develop a
coherent working class
understanding of the charter
while encouraging the fullest
discussion on democracy and
socialism within the federa-
tion's ranks.â€
In adopting the charter,
Cosatu said: ‘‘The struggle
against national oppression
and capitalist exploitation are
complementary to each other
and part of an uninterrupted
struggle for total liberation.â€
While politics was high on
its agenda, the federation
passed resalutions:
* to make special efforts for
domestic workers, who are not
regarded as workers under
the Labor Relations Act and,
therefore, not entitled to any
basic conditions of employ-
ment rights;
* to help organize the
unemployed;
* to fight for a ban on over-
time, and a 40-hour week to
facilitate job creation;
* to support fully the Na-
tional Union of Namibian
Workers, and the campaign
for the implementation of -
United Nations Resolution 435
asa step toward independence
for that territory.
The labor representatives
passed resolutions on sanc-
tions and disinvestment,
pledging support for ‘“com-
prehensive and mandatoryâ€
sanctions against the govern-
ment. Naidoo said the sanc-
tions decision was taken ‘‘to
provide a very decisive guide
to our international allies who
have committed themselves to
isolate apartheid.â€
They noted that ‘’the
capitalists have been suppor-
tive of the apartheid regime's
policies and remain the state's
most trusted partner in main
taining oppression and ex-
ploitation,†and called for:
* the stopping of loans and
credit to the South African
government, businessmen,
municipalities and ban-
tustans;
* restrictions on South
African tourists, businessmen
and state officials travelling
overseas;
\ A New Land Grows Behind
The Lines In Eritrea
Ethiopia’s Civil War Produces Unexpected Results
By Jeremy Harding
KHARTOUM—GEMINI
The tragic African drought of
the mid-Eighties, which peak-
ed here two and a half years
ago, has not been without ad-
vantages for the Eritrean Peo-
ple's Liberation Front
(EPLF), now the dominant
guerrilla group fighting for an
independent Eritrea against
Ethiopian government forces
which hold all the key towns.
Although senior members of
the EPLF and the Eritrean
Relief Association (ERA), an
aid agency with close links to
the EPLF, would never be the
first to say so, they concede
that the drought has aided
their cause.
Says ERA field coordinator
Ghebrimichael Megistu,
choosing his words with care:
“Itistrueto some extent that,
as a result of this tragic
phenomenon, it was possible
to publicize the plight of the
Eritrean people and their
case. It's also true that, in the
past two years, we have been
able to mobilize sufficient
funds to undertake the various
relief programs that ERA has
in Eritrea.â€
The drought focused more
world attention on Africa's
oldest war (at more than 25
years) than it has received
since the late Seventies, when
a generous Soviet military
commitment to the regime of
Lt. Col. Mengistu Haile
Mariam in Addis Ababa pre-
empted the outright guerrilla
victory in Eritrea that many
observers were predicting at
the time.
Relief and rehabilitation
have clearly received a boost,
although comprehensive
figures for relief allocations
crossing north-eastern Sudan
into EPLF-held areas are
unavailable.
ERA'’s statement of income
in kind and cach for 1985, at
the height of the drought,
amounted to $16.5 million. For
1986, it was nearly $15 million.
Most of the income for last
year, say ERA officials,
represents development aid
rather than emergency food
relief.
Rehabilitation in the north
of the territory, the EPLF
heartland, is advancing.
ERA’s office in Khartoum
says it has nearly 75 square
miles under cultivation in one
district alone to help displaced
civilians — at least five
sorghum and millet-growing
projects, several irrigation
and a reforestation project.
There are no foreign aid
workers in the guerrilla-held
areas, although visits by
monitoring teams prepared to
run the risks of air attack are
frequent. Most support from
non-governmental organiza-
tions (NGOs) — more than 40
are involved — isin funding or
materials allocated for
specific projects and channel-
ed through ERA.
Almost without exception,
visitors praise ERA food and
water distribution and the
EPLF's own agricultural and
medical departments.
Low levels of fighting since
Ethiopia re-occupied the town
of Barentu in mid-1985, coupl-
ed with favorable feedback by
visiting aid officers, suggest
that the current development
spurt is likely to continue.
The next result is curious in-
deed: A small-scale, relative-
ly efficient rehabilitation
operation is under way in one
of the most remote regions of
Africa, subject to periodic air
attack and, despite good rains
in 1986, still prey to climatic
reversals.
Meanwhile, a ragged army
of guerrilla fighters is bedded
down in mountain positions
which have remained fixed,
with only one or two changes,
for eight years. They are
defending what the drought
had reduced to a wilderness of
rugged mountain and scorch-
ed lowland but what aid
workers slipping in from
Sudan now hail as a promising
development area.
Cast over this warren of in-
genuity is the shadow of
political deadlock. Addis
Ababa shows no sign of will-
ingness to countenance an in-
dependent Eritrea and the loss
of access tothe Red Sea coast.
The position is unchanged
since Emperor Haile Selassie
used his diplomatic skills to
secure federation with a reluc-
tant Eritrea in 1952 and his
political muscle to annex it
altogether a decade later.
On the Eritrean side, the
consolidation of the marxist
EPLF as the dominant front
has greatly reduced Islamic
influence within the move-
ment and cost it the support of
conservative Arab states, par-
ticularly Saudi Arabia.
These have sponsored the
ELF-PLF, led by Osman
Saleh Sabbe until his death in
r
Cairo earlier this year, and
other remnants of the
Eritrean Liberation Front,
whose many factions have
taken a less radical and often
less secular approach to the
Eritrean question than the employers does nothing to
EPLF, with its representation
of Christians and Muslims
alike.
As a result, the EPLF re-
mains isolated. It is estranged
from its neighbors in Tigray —
also at odds with Addis Ababa
— and depends on sporadic
support from Kuwait and the
United Arab Emirates.
Though it has cut back
markedly on its doctrinaire
vocabulary in the revised Na-
tional Democratic Programs,
the EPLF is still sufficiently
Marxist to preclude the
possibility of limited military
support from the US and its
allies.
Its most dependable friends
now are probably the western
NGOs, who face the difficult
task of sponsoring develop--
ment in guerrilla-head areas
without getting caught in a
hail of regional crossfire.
* the withdrawal of landing
and airspace rights to South
African Airways;
* halting investment of
South African’capital abroad;
* and end to the recruitment
of skilled labor abroad;
* a ban on foreign athletes’
playing in South Africa and on
South Africa’s competing
overseas.
Barayi told workers: “We
are accused of being more of a
‘political front’ than a trade
union federation. We make no
apologies about connecting
issues on the shopfloor and
issues facing workers in socie-
ty as a whole.
“Politics, and especially the
lack of even the most basic
democratic rights for the ma-
jority of our people, is a bread-
and-butter issue for the work-
ing class. It is the fundamen-
tal question which is tormen-
ting millions of workers — and
we are obliged to answer it.â€
The miners’ strike is seen as
a potent start to Cosatu’s
“Living Wage Campaignâ€
which is going ahead despite a
blanket ban on meetings. In
addition to the miners’
walkout, 60,000 metalworkers,
14,000 in the chemical in-
dustry, 10,000 in the hotel in-
dustry and 10,000 in local
government are locked in
wage disputes.
The union's headquarters,
Cosatu House, has twice been
placed under siege by police,
who raided the building, de-
tained workers, confiscated
documents and caused exten-
sive damage. The first raid
took place at the end of the
days in which six railway
workers were shot dead by
police.
Since then, Cosatu offices in
four centers have been
damaged by fire. Even a union
document listing the attacks
on its members and offices
was confiscated by pdice. In
May, the day after workers
and others staged a two-day
stayaway in protest against
the Anglos-only election, two
powerful bombs forced the
union to vacate its premises.
The unions are confident,
and are making far-reaching
demands. Some have called
for ‘‘no taxation without
representation,’ a direct
challenge to the deduction of
taxes from workers’ pay
packets.
Barayi warned employers:
“To us the Living Wage Cam-
paign is a legitimate struggle
by millions of workers earning
starvation wages and we wish
to place on record that the
deafening silence of the
dispel our belief that there is
an alliance between capital

Workers Link Labor, Political Issues
CYRIL RAMAPHOSA
...strikeleader
and the apartheid state.
“While the bosses leave us
to debate the issues with an in-
competent police captain,, we
want to tell them that we will
not bow to actions likethe ban-
ning of our Living Wage
rallies and that they will pay
the price for keeping quiet in
the face of these actions.â€
In reference to anti-
apartheid activists in Black
townships, Barayi told
Cosatu’s congress that labor
must act with those ‘‘sectors
of the democratic movement
which have occupied and
transformed schools, univer-
sities and the streets of our
townships into trenches of
struggle.â€
Naidoo called disinvestment
by foreign multinationals
‘‘corporate camouflageâ€
which has allowed them to in-
crease their support for the
South African government.
Barayi said “We note that
although (President Ronald)
Reagan, (British Prime
Minister Margaret) Thatcher
and (West German Chancellor
Helmut) Kohl say sanctions
cannot work in South Africa,
they do make them work when
aimed against social progress
in countries like Cuba and
Nicaragua.â€
Coastu was launched last
year after painstaking unity
.talks among 30 trade unions of
varying traditions and
histories. Since then, member-
ship has increased by 50 per-
cent. The 13 industrial unions
established thus far reflect
Cosatu’s commitment to in-
dustrial unions which will bet-
ter unite the strength of
workers in each major sector.
The movement's growth has
come despite an intense state
attack. At the Metal and Allied
Workers Congress in Durban
last year, a worker was killed
and several others injured
when police fired on workers
leaving the meeting. More
than 750 trade union leaders
have been detained since 1985.

In the station of God's

their words were the words of
God issuing forth from their
mouths. In the station of
humanity, they were in some
respects like all humans —
they had to eat and sleep.

Ministries Crusade Team of
Dual Role Of Teachers Of God
One of the things that helped good? There is none good but
one, that is, God. . .†(Matt.
19:17). Again, He said, ‘I and
my Father are one†(John
10:30), and, in contrast, said,
“He that believeth on me,
believeth not on me, but on
Him who sent me.†(John
12:44).
Still further, He said, ‘‘Veri-
ly, verily, I say unto you,
before Abraham was, I Am.â€
(John 8:58). Contrast these
words with these in Matthew
1:16, where Heis depicted as a
descendant of Abraham.
To me, He who was ‘‘before
Abraham’’ represents the
manifestation of the Christ or
Holy Spirit — the Word that
was from the beginning, as
recorded in John 1:1. On the
other hand, the Jesus who
descended from Abraham was
the flesh and blood Jesus.
An example explaining this
distinction can be seen in the
death of Muhammad. One of
his followers declared, ‘Let
him then know, whosoever
worshippeth Muhammad, that
Muhammad is dead; but
whoso worshippeth God, let

Florida Memorial Hosts Youth Enrichment Program
By Samantha Gates
Project Success, a six-week-
long summer enrichment pro-
gram for high school juniors
and seniors that began June 29
at Florida Memorial College,
climaxed recently with its
first awards banquet.
Among those honored was
Richard D. Thomas, a 17-year-
old senior at American Senior
High School, who was ac-
claimed “Project Success.â€
“I didn’t know,†Thomas
said. “I had to had my heart
and walk up there.â€
Thomas said that earlier
that day, Rosemary Lewis,
Florida Memorial’s Dean of
Students, said that she had.a
surprise for him. But he said
he was not expecting an
award.
“It was encouraging,â€
Thomas said in reference to
being recognized. “It was like
a start towards my goal in
life: to be somebody.
Everyone was proud of me,
and I was proud of myself.â€
Born to Almarick and
Dorothy Thomas, his family
always had high expectations
for him, he said.
“My family always saw me
as one to excel in life,â€
Thomas said.

Black Actors Fantastic In
Latest Vietnam Film
By April Young
‘‘Hamburger Hill†is one of
several recent Vietnam War
films, such as ‘‘Platoon,â€
‘‘Garden of Stone,†and ‘“‘Full
Metal Jacket.†All received
good reviews, but ‘‘Ham-
burger Hill’ stands out
because of the constant
presence of Black actors with
major roles in its cast.
There is Motown, a wise,
college-educated soldier,
played by Michael Patrick
Boatman; Courtney B. Vance
is Doc, a deep, sensitive
character whose complex
relationship with the war and
all its participants is
presented in close-up
throughout the film; Don
James is McDaniel, a naive
young man; and Washburn, a
background character with a
pervasive presence, is played
by Don Cheadle.
The sdidarity they have is
heart-warming, as they sup-
port one another physically
and emotionally auring the
struggle to conquer a steep,
muddy hill occupied by North
Vietnamese forces in the
Ashau Valley.
There is a nice balance in
this film between combat
episodes and character
development. Thus, the Black
men are not only strong and
courageous in battle, but they
are also intelligent, scared,
hopeful, and very human as
well. They slap hands, pound
fists, and hug, one reminding
another, ‘‘It don’t mean
nothin’.â€
“Hamburger Hill†is a very
good film—one of the season’s
“‘must-see’s’’ for its intensity
and high-quality acting. Battle
and the concept of war are
unglamorized and come
across very realistically.
In addition, unlike other
films with a similar subject, it
does not omit the contribu-
tions that we know Black
soldiers made on behalf of this
country.
Hoyte Says Guyanese
Demanding Change
GUYANA— Guyanese are
exerting pressure on the
government for urgent struc-
tural change, President Des-
mond Hoyte says.
He said that members of the
ruling Peoples National Party
(PNC) are fully aware that in
the pursuit of the party's
political mission, they cannot
act alone.
‘‘We cannot isolate
oursevles and behave as if we
have a monopoly of wisdom,
expertise, creativity and
patriotism’’ he told party
members at their biennial
congress recently.
He said multifarious forces
are exerting pressures for
change in the Guyanese socie-
ty and “to resist them merely
out of doctrinal conceit or con-
fident ignorance would be to
court disaster.’
“We could hardly fail to
hear the insistent clamor of
the society for urgent struc-
tural change,’’ he said, adding
that in these circumstances,
the party must gear itself to
perform effectively as a
primary agency for
facilitating and influencing
the course of the impending
changes.
The ruling party is still a
socialist party but socialism in
Guyana must follow an in-
novative course, Hoyte said.
He attempted to dismiss
speculation here that, under
his leadership, since the death
of the party's founder-leader
Forbes Burnham two years,
there has been a shift in the
party's ideological position.
He quoted Burnham
repeatedly to make the point
that the party rejected the or-
thodox communist dogma and
system as being irrelevant
and unsuited to Guyanese
aspirations and needs.
Guyana’'s only dogma, he
said, is that Guyanese must
maintain independent control
of their own destinies and be
masters of their own country.
Less than a week before
Hoyte spoke. the Working Peo-
ple’s Alliance (WPA) said it is
considering a proposal from
the main opposition Peoples
Progressive Party (PPP) to
form a left-wing front.
The WPA was responding to

behavior and ability to adjust
to college life.
The project offered extend-
ed studies in English, math,
science and computers. Par-
ticipating students could earn
up to six college credits.
Thomas, along with other
participants, received medals
for academic excellence in
English and math or science.
Trophies were presented to
students in a gifted math
course.
According to Lewis, Florida
Memorial will offer scholar-
ships upon graduation to those
who participated.

TALLAHASSEE— As the

“Although it seems that no
one has these diseases any
more, some diseases are ac-

Janowski, director of the HRS
{mmunization program. ‘For
example, measles has occur-
red in many areas of Florida
over the past year. Measles
can be very harmful, causing
hearing loss, pneumonia, and,
in some cases, mental retar-
dation or death.â€
Immunizations are
available through private
physicians or local county
public health units. “As the
school year approaches,’
Janowski said, ‘‘lines at the
health units get long and doc-
tors’ schedules may be book-
ed. We hope people will call to
schedule an appointment to-
day so they don’t leave their
children unprotected.â€

Boy Is Jackson's
Liver Transplant
By Samantha Gates
Bubbling, bouncing baby
boy Arthur Lee Paige did not
let a little thing like a liver
transplant dim his spirits.
‘“He’s doing well,†said Tala
Geith, Head Nurse of the In-
tensive Care Unit at Jackson
Memorial Hospital, after the
operation on the 14-month-old
toddler.
“When he’s awake, he’s
dancing and throwing kisses,’
she continued. ‘‘He’s not in
any pain.â€â€™
Unlike Arthur, Latoi Saintil,
the first person to receive a
liver transplant at the county
hospital, is now suffering from
rejection of the organ.
‘“The donated liver for Latoi
did not take,’ said Dr.
Maureen Jonas, Pediatric
Liver Specialist at Jackson
Memorial. “We don’t know
why that happens. Sometimes
it just does.â€
Jonas said that the body has
a built-in immunity system
that may cause it to reject the
transplanted organ or
anything foreign to it.
Latoi is now awaiting
another donor. She and
another child are the only two
on the list.
Little Arthur, however, is
showing no signs of rejection
and according to hospital of
ficials, the worst for him is
over.
Both Arthur and Latoi suf-
fered from biliary atresia, an
inflaming and scaring of the
liver ducts, rendering them in-
capable of transferring bile to
the intestines, for which they
were treated by Dr. Joshua
Miller, Chief of the Division of
Transplants.
According to Jonas, the
liver transplants that usually
take 12 hours to perform and
cost an average of $200,000,
lasted only 10 hours for Arthur
and was paid for by the
Children’s Medical Service, a
state agency.
She added that expenses do
not end there.†Arthur and
Latoi must continue to take
medication pertaining to the
transplant for the rest of their
lives.
‘His medication when he
leaves here will cost from $500
to $700 per month,â€â€™ Jonas
said. “The most important
medication is that to surpress
the immune system,â€â€™ which
decreases a later chance of re-
jection.
According to Jonas, approx-
imately two-thirds of the
children contracting biliary
artesia will need a liver
transplant in their lifetime.
She said that most toddlers
with the disease who are left
untreated do not live past the
age of 2. Jonas added that
donors for toddlers and
children are hard to find, and
30 to 50 percent of the
youngsters die while awaiting
a donor.
Jonas said that Jackson
Memorial has received two to
three children a year with the
disease, the majority of them
Black.
The doctor said that when
trying to find an appropriate
donor, race is not the issue, as
some people once believed,
but the recipient’s weight and
blood type must match those
of the donor.
“When people donate, they
don’t ask for what color,â€
Geith said. “Theracial stigma
is not there.â€
According to Jonas, organs
are donated by those patients
who are declared dead
because their brain has ceas-
ed functioning. Organs are
then preserved by exposing
them to oxygen through an ar-
tificial means.
In compliance with a new
Florida state law making it
mandatory for the medical
staff to request organs from
next of kin, after a possible

donor is found permission for

“It’s a hard time to ask.
family members,’ Geith said,
“but it’s necessary. Most of
the time they agree.â€
According to Jonas, Dade
County leads the United States
in having the most organ
donors. She pulled out her
driver’s license to show the
donor mark on it, but stressed

‘‘People really need to
understand what organ
donating is all about,†Jonas
said. ‘‘We need more donors.â€

organ donors may sign up

try to work out some method
of dealing with the problem
without continuing the pro-
tests.
However, he said he was in-
formed Tuesday afternoon by
Davie police that the meeting
had been canceled.
Jean-Juste's group alleges
that Veillard has ‘““a bloody
history’’ in Haiti under the
Duvalier dictatorship, that he
has wrongly taken money
from people with delivering
promised legal services and
that he is being paid as a spy

by the current Haitian govern-
ment.
“We want justice done,â€
Jean-Juste told The Miami
Times yesterday.
He said Veillard went to
school with one of the current
leaders of the Haitian govern-
ment and so the chances are
siim of his being extradited
and tried.
But he pledged that his
group will continue to push for
justice, because ‘the time will
come when he can be ex-
tradited.â€
Veillard is a legal assistant.
He has denied Jean-Juste's
charges in interviews with the
media and accuses the Miami
refugee leader of being
jealous of his influence.
Jean-Juste declared
however that it is not a matter
of personalities but ‘‘of
justice.â€
“There are many people
who want to see justice done
as far as he is concerned,â€
Jean-Juste said. “We want an
explanation of his connection

The $3.5 million an all-Anglo
jury awarded to a Black
telephone company worker for
incidents of racial harassment
was ‘‘grossly excessive,’ a
federal judge ruled as he over-
‘The relief awarded by the
jury to the plaintiff is contrary

evidence,’ U.S. District Judge
H. Moore wrote.
‘Moreover, the relief award-
ed is grossly excessive and is
thus indicative of bias, passion

alleged instances of racial
harassment by supervisors
and co-workers at Southern
Bell.
Moore, who denied a
Southern Bell motion for a
directed verdict of acquittal
during the trail, said even
when the evidence is ‘viewed
in the light most favorable to
plaintiff two incidents are not
enough to establish that the
alleged harassment was a per-
sistent, pervasive practice.â€
Southern Bell officials, who
predicted after the trial the
company would win on appeal,
were happy with the decision.
“We felt very strongly that
the company was not guilty of
the charges made against us,â€
Southern Bell spokesman Dick
Brown said.
Mrs. Vance's attorney, Scott
Fortune, said he would ap-
peal.
15-year employee of
Southern Bell, Mrs. Vance told
jurors she received insuffi-
cient training, punitive
disciplinary treatment and
was repeatedly required to
show special knowledge of her
work assignments on an im-
promptu and arbitrary basis.
She said Anglo co-workers
were not treated the same
way.
She also said she suffered a
disabling anxiety attack from
the mistreatment at the
warehouse where she worked
after she found a hangman's
nbose hanging over her work
station.
Mrs, Vance, who wired
telephones in the company's
warehouse shop, had charged
she was harassed from the
time of her transfer there in
1984 until she left work last
year.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
I. Notice is hereby given that a public hearing will be held by the
Metropolitan Dade County Board of County Commissioners in
the Commission Chambers at 111 N.W. 1st Street, Miami,
Florida at 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, September 1, 1987, for the pur-
pose of considering a project for which financial assistance is
being sought from the Urban Mass Transportation Ad-
ministration generally described as follows:
The Urban Mass Transportation Act of 1964, as amended,
created a Section 9 Block Grant Program for transit projects. At
the present time, Dade County is seeking $12,633,000 in
Federal funds, and proposes to utilize the funds in the following
manner:
1) Operating assistance — $9,817,000
2). Capital projects — $2,816,000 (Total Cost $3,520,000)
a. Purchase 18 buses — $2,970,000
b. Purchase associated capital maintenance items — $550,000
The sum of the above capital projects totals $3,520,000 of
which the Federal share is 80% or $2,816,000. The remaining
20% is shared equally between the State of Florida (FDOT) and
Dade County. Dade County's share is provided for in the FY 87-
88 Reserve for Grant Match. The $2,816,000 for capital plus
the $9,817,000 for operating assistance comprise the total
$12,633,000 in Federal funds for this grant application.
Another Section 9 grant application will be submitted following
final fiscal year 1988 apportionment decisions by the Urban
Mass Transportation Administration.
II. At the hearing, the Commission will afford an opportunity for
interested persons or agencies to be heard with respect to the
social, economic and environmental aspects of the project. In-
terested persons may submit orally or in writing evidence and
recommendations with respect to said project.
III. A copy of the draft application for this project is available for

The local Coalition for a
Free South Africa has con-
demned Angolan rebel leader
Dr. Jonas Savimbi and the
South African apartheid
regime for trying desperately
to overthrow the government
of Angola-
Gary Spencer, one of three
vice presidents of the coalition
and an attorney with Legal
Aid Services of Greater
Miami, described Savimbi,
leader of the Union for the
Total Liberation of Angola
(UNITA), as an opportunist
who has changed his position
several times.
Spencer said Savimbi and
UNITA are pretending that
the issue in Angola is the oc-
cupation of Cuban troops since
1976, while it is not.
“The issue in Angola is the
plan by the South African
government to dominate all
“When you look at shopping

you see that they are more
than just somewhere to shop,â€
said Charles Wright, who is in-
volved in the planning and
promotion of the recent efforts

other countries in the area,â€
Spencer said.
He was responding to
statements made by a UNITA
spokesman to. a group of
Blacks, and Cubans at the Ca-
naan Baptist Missionary
Church in Miami.
Marcos Samondo, president
of the Free Angola Informa-
tion Service, based in
Washington, D.C., had urged
Blacks and Cubans to join
hands to press for the
withdrawal of Cuban troops
from Angola.
Spencer said the Coalition
disagrees with Marcos
because it believes that South
Africa has no right to continue
to indulge in activities that
tend toward the destabiliza-
tion of the Angolan govern-
ment.

Superintendent, Dr. Joseph
Fernandez, will address
members of the
Unrepresented People
Political Action Committee
(UP-PAC) at their regular
weekly meeting Saturday,
Aug. 22, at 8:15 a.m.
The Greater New Bethel
Church, 178th Street and Nor-
thwest 22nd Ave. is the venue
where Dr. Fernandez will res-
pond to an 11-point statement
presented to school board
members by Betty Ferguson
at a meeting July 8.
The issues include appoin-
ting only the strongest and
willing administrators as head
of inner-city schools, granting
all faculty requests to leave
those schools to avoid Black
students dealing with the pro-
blem of teachers that bring
quiet hostility and resentment
into the classroom.
Ferguson's group is also
calling for city schools to be
given priority in upgrading
their physical facilities and
equipment, as well stopping
the construction of new -
schools until existing ones are
renovated to a comparable
level of comfort and conve
nience.
Another call is for principals
in inner-city schools to be
given the power to transfer
undesirable teachers and to
reject any who have had pro-
blems in other schools.
The meeting is open to the
community.

Ferguson as a community

Aid For Savimbi
the U.S. to fight against his
people, Spencer said, ‘We
can’t trust Jonas Savimbi.â€
He described the effort
mounted by Samondo as a way
of deceiving Blacks and Cuban
Americans regarding ‘‘the
true situation†in Angaa.
To counter this, Spence said,
the Coalition will organize
public forums where videos on
Angola will be shown, rather
than relying on ‘‘false infor-
mation ‘which the agents of
Savimbi’s UNITA are peddl-
ing around.â€
Spencer said the video will

The event, he said, is free
and members of the communi-
ty are invited “to see for
themselves how the legitimate
government of Angolais being
attacked at every point in-
cluding, its dvilian popula-
tion.â€
Speaking on the support that
UNITA has received from the
Black Americans for Peace
and Democracy in Angola,
Spencer challenges its leaders
to a public debate.
He said officials of the Coali-
tion have been trying to make
contact with the Black
Americans for Peace and
Democracy in Angola without
success.
“It's wel and good that
Blacks and Cubans come
together in search of a solution
to the problems besetting the
people of Angola, but on this
issue they are being
deceived,†he said.

This portion of the four-part
project is presently opera-
tional, and Wright said, the
next step is ‘‘getting seniors
interested.â€
* Vacant booth space for
community-based youth
organizations and churches
for fundraising purposes.
* Construction of a stage to
be used to showcase youth
talent at the market. This ef-
fort will include the provision
of technical equipment, such
as speakers and amplifiers.
There are also plans for a
display area for the visual
arts. “We know there’s talent
there, and we want to en-
courageit.â€â€™ Wright said. “Our
youth should get a chance to
display what they have.â€
* A September art competi-
tion between Dade schools.
The winner will be commis-
sioned to paint a 40’x8’ mural
on the front of the market
depicting history’s great
Black people. Wright describ-
ed this part of the project as
‘the most exciting.â€â€ Wright

expressed confidence that the
artwork woud not be defaced.
“The murals at the Martin
Luther King Building and Afro
Books & Things have not been
damaged, so I don’t expect
that this one will be destroyed
either,†he said.
A “total external facelift’
will be given to the market,
and ‘‘the configuration will be
redone,†Wright said.
He estimated the cost of the
renovations and the four-part
project, induding ad cam-
paigns, at $20,000.
Along with a new look, the
market, located at 1100 NW

Ralph Packingham, a hair
stylist at the market and
Chairman of its merchants’
association, sees the changes
as very positive. “All past
negatives about this place
have been overcome,†he
said.
“I’m sure that we’ll definite-
ly be an asset,’ he continued.
‘‘We’re working hard to ser-
vice the community.â€

Booker T. Washington
The Booker T. Washington
Freedom Trail, airing
Wednesdays at 9:30 p.m. on
WLRN-TV/Channel 17,
features a rare and extraor-
dinary recording of Booker T.
Washington's Atlanta Exposi-
tion speech of 1895.
Tuskegee University’s ar-
chivist Daniel Williams made
this turn-of-the- century recor-
ding of Washington's voice,
the only existing copy,
available exclusively for this
tribute to Tuskegee’s founder.
“The Legacy’ of Booker T.
Washington was the subject of
yesterday's edition of Tony
Brown's Journal, part of a
four-part series that will focus
on the embodiment of the
spirit of Black higher educa-
tion through a profile of
Booker T. Washington —
" educator, statesman, Hamp-
ton University’s most famous
graduate, and founder of
Tuskegee University.
“The Dream,†airing Sept.
2, at 9:30 p.m. on WLRN-TV
17, examines the establish-
ment of Washington's most
significant contribution to
Black higher education and
the controversy that surround-
ed the Tuskegee Wizard.
Washington built Tuskegee
from a dilapidated shanty and
a run-down, abandoned Black
church into the most famous
Black school of its time.

LUSAKA—GEMINI —
Malawi's ageing President
Kamuzu Banda has run into
unexpected opposition to an
initiative many see as a
disguised attempt to arrange
for his successor. The move
seemed to be aimed at
maneuvering Cecilia Kad-
zamira, Banda’'s long-time
“official hostess’’, into a com-
manding position to claim the
leadership when Banda dies.
Although it is illegal in
Malawi to speculate on
Banda’s age, he is belicved
well into his 80's and perhaps
close to 90. Kadzamira:- has
been mentioned repeatedly as
a potential successor, and her
chances looked strengthened
by the formation last year of
the Organization for the
Development of Women in
Malawi (CCM).
Under Kadzamira’s
tutelage and chairmanship,
CCM'’s ostensible objective is
to develop and commercialize
craftmanship among women
who are also members of the
only legal party, the Malawi
Congress Party (MCP).
The organization has receiv-
ed massive press coverage,
and spread to every corner of
the country within a short
time of its formation. Women
with skill in pottery, Knitting,
embroidery, basket and mat-
making were identified and
registered as members and
supplied with materials they
need.
At first, the new organiza-
tion was welcomed, but doubts
have been growing about its
motives. Kadzamira’s
political and ecomomic inten-
tions have become more con-
spicuous, bringing widespread
disenchantment.
CCM women make such
items as sweaters, socks, clay
pots, tablecloths, shopping
baskets and floor mats. They
are collected by CCM branch
Over the years, schools and offiaals and sent to Lilongwe, |

by Tuskegee alumni sprang up

citizens, including singing

Blantyre and Mzuzu, where
CCM shops have been

The items are popular and
fetch good prices in the city
markets. Profits are banked
by the organization, but what

Catharsis
_ Our modern Western civilization is said to have begun
‘with the flowering of Greece. Many of our present con-
cepts are based on the teachings of the philosophers:
Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and on the plays of Aeshylus,
Sophocles and Euripides.
It was the Greeks who understood and described a
phenomenon known as ‘‘Catharsius’’,

banking nobody seems to
know. The women who pro-
duce the articles are not paid,
on the pretext that they
received the raw materials
free.
The only reward offered the
women so far has been invita-
tions to attend exhibitions and
demonstration parties of their
goods arranged by the CCM
organization. Invited
members are served with
meals and soft drinks, but the
get-togethers have done little
to increase the popularity of
the organization throughout
the country.
Last March, while on his
routine annual crop inspection
tour, Banda defended Kad-
zamira’'s organization and
denied it was a form of
“thangata’†(colonial forced
labor). He said CCM was
founded to help Malawi
women develop their talents
and skills to commercial

levels.
Public dissent would not be
tolerated in Malawi, but Ban-
da was aware of whispered
complaints that the trading
activities of CCM matched the
pre-independence practices of
British settlers who forced
Africans to work on their
tobacco and tea plantations.
Circulars have been secretly
distributed, attacking CCM as
a means of exploiting Malawi
women.
Initially, Banda attributed
the circulars to Orton Chirwa,
the imprisoned leader of the
exiled Malawi Freedom Move-
ment (MARFEMO), who, he
said, was “continuing with his
subversive -nonsense’’ from
jail. Later, he changed tactics
and blamed Lusaka-based
medical practitioner Dr.
Harry Bwanausi for the
seditious leaflets.
A number of Malawians are
under detention for
distributing seditious cir-
culars after being caught with
anti-CCM material. Banda’s
sensitivity to the ‘‘thangata’
accusations are well founded.
During the nationalist strug:
gle for independence, agita
tion against labor practices
were at the core of African op
position to colonial rule.
Observers in Malawi say the
new women's organization
was founded to solidify Kad-
zamira’s political hand and
provide her with a strong
female base. She will also
need the money if she is to
overcome John Tembo, her
main competition as Banda’s
heir-apparent.
Apart from acting as a
travelling support group for
presidential appearances,
women have been allowed no
other serious roles to play in
Malawian society.
Malawi has not ratified the
United Nations convention on
the elimination of all forms of
discrimination against
women, and within Malawi,
women have no significant
achievements in politics,
diplomacy, public administra-
tion, law, medicine or
teaching.
