" THE UBYSSEY\nVol. II No. 6\nThe Summer Ubyssey\nAugust 3-9\n228-2301\nWCC fights racism\nGrants given for black\nliberation in Southern Africa\nVISITORS AT 'THE WELL\" heard Grace Eneme, a black Presbyterian\nfrom Cameroon speak on conditions women face in her country.\nWomen delegates at the World Council of Churches conference have\nbeen gathering at this meeting place located in the Lutheran Campus\nCentre. See story page 5.\nBy MURIEL DRAAISMA\nThe two Christian men on\nthe podium peered intently\nat the army of press before\nthem. As TV cameras swung into\naction, the pair slowly responded\nto grueling questions on the World\nCouncil of Churches' anti-racism\nfund.\n\"We are not talking about simple personal prejudices,\" said\nAnwar Bartak, the WCC's director\nof the Program to Combat Racism.\n\"Racism is a structural problem\nsupported by legal, economic and\neven theological organizations,\" he\ntold 100 journalists in War Memorial gym.\nThe questions centered on the\ncontroversial aspects of the PCR\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094 the grants given to black liberation groups fighting white supremacy in Southern Africa. Christian as well as secular journalists\ndemanded to know if the WCC's\nfunds are used for arms purchases.\n\"The WCC makes it clear that\nmoney to liberation groups is given\nfor humanitarian purposes. It has\nnever been proven that it is used\nfor other reasons,\" said Alan\nBoesak, South African Church\nleader.\nThe liberation groups receiving\nfunds report regularly to the PCR\nstaff about their activities. \"We\nhave no hesitation in knowing what\nthey are doing. We know precisely\nwhat is going on,\" said Bartak.\nThe money supplied by individ-\nwas used to fund terrorism against\nwhites in what was then called\nRhodesia, but Bartak shook his\nhead.\n\"Our critics use the Zimbabwe\nexample when it is a success story\nfor the PCR. That small grant we\ncontributed helped end the vicious\nracist war in Zimbabwe,\" he said.\nThe WCC also pays close attention to the situation in South Africa\nwhere racism is institutionalized,\nMoney to liberation groups\nis given for\nhumanitarian purposes.\nual churches and governments is\nintended to cover a variety of costs\nincluding medical, educational,\nlegal and organizational, he said.\nMuch of the controversy arose\nwhen the WCC granted funds to\nthe Zimbabwe Patriotic Front in\n1978. Critics thought the money\nNo nukes' is not enough\nBy BRIAN JONES\nDisarmament is far deeper\nthan merely reducing\nnuclear weapons, an\nAmerican peace activist said\nMonday.\n\"It is not sufficient, by far, merely\nto stop the nuclear arms race,\"\nRandall Forsberg told 200 people\nat International House. Conventional weapons must also be curtailed, said Forsberg, a leader of\nthe U.S. nuclear freeze campaign.\n\"Despite the terrible danger of\nnuclear catastrophe, we cannot separate nuclear weapons from the\nissue of conventional weapons and\nconventional war,\" she said.\n\"The reason we have nuclear\nforces and the continuation of the\narms race is not primarily to deter\nnuclear war,\" said Forsberg. \"It\ndoesn't make sense to have nuclear\nweapons to prevent nuclear war.\"\nThe arms race is currently escalating because the superpowers are\ntrying to gain first-strike capability, she said. \"The thrust of the\nnuclear arms built (since 1960)\nhave been to attack cities, but\nnuclear and conventional military\nforces on the other side.\"\nThis applies conventional ideas\nof warfare to the nuclear arena,\nForsberg said. \"If the purpose of\nour nuclear forces is to deter attack,\nwhy are we targeting military forces?\" she asked.\nThe U.S. plans to use nuclear\nweapons to escalate a conventional\nwar, charged Forsberg.\n\"That is the rationality for the\nacquisition of these counterforce\nweapons,\" she said. \"It is to perpetuate the roles of conventional\nmilitary force.\"\n\"Practically none of the U.S.\nmilitary spending is for defence,\nnarrowly defined,\" she added.\nNuclear weapons are meant to\ninstill fear in other nations while\nconventional weapons are designed\nto be used overseas, she said.\nForsberg outlined several crucial steps for achieving disarmament.\n\"The first thing we must do is\nstop producing counter force\nweaponry,\" she said. And the U.S.\nand U.S.S.R. must stop intervening in the affairs of third world\ncountries, she said.\nIf these two major conditions\nwere met, \"we would have created\na change of attitude which would\nallow us to just begin disarming,\"\nForsberg said. \"That is how far we\nare today from realistic disarmament.\"\nOther necessary measures would\nbe to demand that industrial\nnations jointly and simultaneously\nreduce their military forces by 50\nper cent, said Forsberg. Military\nindustries would have to be shut\ndown, and civil rights and economic development promoted in\nthe Eastern Bloc and the third\nworld, she said.\n\"If we follow these steps, we can\nmake this theory (disarmament) a\nreality.\"\nhe said. By donating money to the\nliberation groups there, churches\nare simply responding to the\ndemands of the gospel, he said.\nBoesak, a strong opponent of\napartheid, outlined the dilemma\nfacing black South Africans and\nultimately the PCR. \"The South\nAfrican people have tried every\npeaceful means to change the\nsituation. We want our freedom,\nrespect and dignity, but what are\nwe to do?\"\nThe South African government\nresponds with violence to any\nattempt to alter the political\nimbalance, he said. \"One must ask:\nwhere does the terror begin for\nmany people in South Africa?\"\nChurches must support the\nracially oppressed, but should strive\nfor peace at the same time, he said.\nThey must never justify violence as\nthey have in the past, he added.\nWomen suffer from violence worldwide\nBy BRIAN JONES\nWomen, why are you weeping? This question, addressed by four women at a\nSaturday forum on violence in women's\nlives, revealed how widespread the problem is in the\nworld.\nAruna Gnanadason, a member of the Church of\nSouth India, said discrimination against Indian women is common.\n\"The understanding that a woman is a man's property allows men to violate a woman any way they\nwant,\" she said.\nVarious forms of violence are used to suppress\nwomen in India, Gnanadason told 400 people in IRC\n2. Landlords and their hired help rape and molest\nvillage women to intimidate their husbands she said,\ncalling it \"feudal violence.\"\nIndian women are also victims of domestic violence, said Gnanadason. Five thousand dowry deaths\noccurred between 1948 and 1978 because brides' families could not afford to pay their dowries, she said.\n\"Dowry death is a euphemism for cold blooded\nmurder of a wife.\"\nAnd the state abuses Indian women by forcing them\nto take contraceptives without giving them any explanation, Gnanadason said. \"To them, Indian women\nare no different than a herd of cows.\"\nBut the Indian women's movement has made some\nprogress in achieving legal equality, she said. \"We\nhave yet a long way to go. But we have hope in women,\nwho can be peacemakers in a troubled world.\"\nOo Chung Lee, of the South Korean Presbyterian\nChurch, said South Korean women are reluctant to\ntry to change their status.\n\"Most women are trained so well that they support\nthe status quo. They do not want change,\" said Lee.\nMost of the violence against South Korean women\nis directed at lower class women fighting economic\noppression, she said. When women union members\nstrike, men are sent in by the government to beat\nthem, she said.\nAlthough demonstrations are illegal in South Korea,\nmany women are forced to strike because of poor pay,\nwhich is often 40 per cent less than what men receive,\nsaid Lee.\n\"This kind of wage discrimination makes women\nvictims of slum areas,\" Lee said. \"I would call this\nsocial violence on women.\"\nJean Zaru said Palestinian women encounter frequent violence. Its roots are found in the very unequal\ntreatment of boys and girls, and the way they are\nviewed by society, she said. '\nWhen a boy is born, they say \"May he be blessed,\"\nZaru said. But when a girl is born, they say \"May God\ncompensate you with many sons.\"\nReligion may also contribute to violence against\nwomen, said Elizabeth Bettenhausen, of the Lutheran\nChurch in America.\n\"The natural world is denigraded, and women are\nthe epitome of the natural world,\" she said. \"The\nstatus quo for women is pure and simple misery.\"\n\"It is quite clear, woman, why you are weeping,\"\nsaid Bettenhausen. \"But all I know about God is that\nShe is weeping with you.\" Page 2\nTHE SUMMER UBYSSEY\nWEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3, 1983\nBudget angers women\nBy LISA MORRY\n\" Women Against the Budget want\nit to be known that, for however\nlong it takes, women are going to\nfight the implementation of this legislation. Women arefighting because\nwe cannot survive and will not\nadvance under the terms it seeks to\nimpose on our lives.\"\nThis promise to challenge the\nSocred sword threatening B.C.\nwomen was given by Frances Was-\nserlein at the July 23 rally to protest\nthe provincial government's budget.\nWomen against the Budget is a\ncoalition of women's groups and\nindividuals educating women about\nhow the budget violates their rights.\nA meeting Thursday night at the\nFirst United Church on East Hastings drew about 350 women representing many different unions and\nwomen's groups.\nOne issue the meeting addressed\nwas Bill 3, the Public Sector Restraint Act, which allows the government to fire civil servants without\ncause.\n\"The new legislation declared open\nseason on women in terms of sex\ndiscrimination and harassment without recourse to union rights,\" said\nWAB spokesperson Sara Diamond.\n\"The firing without cause provision\nis an open invitation for sexual har-\nassent on the job, and because of\ngovernment cutbacks women no\nlonger have a legitimate government\nagency to fight discrimination,\" she\nsaid.\n\"This means that if women object\nto being sexually harassed by their\nboss, they risk being fired.\"\nWAB is also addressing the problem of women's minimal earning\npower.\n\"Education funding cutbacks will\nlimit our access to higher education\nand entrench women in low-paid\nand traditional job ghettoes,\" Was-\nserlein said at the rally.\nSince women earn only 57 per\ncent of what men earn, WAB says\nthat Bill 11 \u00E2\u0080\u0094 the Compensation\nStabilization Program Ammendment\nAct, which limits wage increases to a\nmaximum of five per cent and also\nallows wage reductions \u00E2\u0080\u0094 will widen\nthe gap between women and men.\n\"With this legislation the Socred\ngovernment is bent on re-creating a\ntime when, for women, independence, self-determination and decent\nwages and working conditions disappear from the agenda of this province,\" said Wasserlein. \"We, who\nhave still so much work to do to\nadvance women's rights, must not\nand will not return to a time when\nwomen's work was brtually exploited and women's needs were completely ignored.\"\nAfter her emotional and angry\nspeech at B.C. Place, Wasserlein\ndiscussed some of the other cuts that\nwill be detrimental to women.\nTransition House, a halfway house\nfor battered women and their children, may be in danger, she said.

This\nfreeze is a direct threat to women's\nability to feed and house their children, and stretches a minimum income\non basic survival needs, she said.\n'\"This government opposes basic\nhuman rights,\" says Wasserlein.\n\"Who most needs the safeguards of\nthe Human Rights Act?

Some face death sentences, he added.\nThe Polish authorities have a weak case against the\nacused because many were already under restrictive\nsupervision at the time of their alleged illegal activities.\n\"The authorities have absolutely no evidence. They\nhaven't done a very good job of preparing the materials\nthat would stand as a basis for sentencing.\"\nFive thousand arrests and internments occured during the martial law period, said Czaykowski. Leading\nacademics were among those interned, he said.\nStan Persky, author and political scientist, said students obtained academic freedoms during the solidarity period before martial law was imposed.\nThe January 1981 Lodz agreement helped the student\nmovement, said Persky.

Attending a Western\nregional Canadian University Press\nconference, they were to spend a\nmellow weekend massaging each\nother and discussing issues of\nconcern.\nAnd apart from the late night partying last weekend, much business\nwas accomplished.\nA women's rights committee composed of five women from the West\nwas established, and the mandate\nfor each coordinator was drawn up.\nThe women chosen will be responsible for extending support to other\nwomen journalists, organizing\nwomen's caucuses and networks, and\ncoordinating the coverage of\nwomen's issues in student newspapers.\n- WfcaeCtaJB&ookeconsultedtnestyte-\nflttW* ane^ contemplated pizza the\n; otfwnlHHMtedinftwoonisr.ptanniRg\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 fcytiiM strategy. \"BySnee only to\n, reviews of mellow jenHrok fusion,''\n. bellowed Chris Wong. \"Don't ftwset\nwimflttn'ttauMamffttaxicavwae*,\"\npMmdMuiW Oraajsma. \"Bylines\nto\u00C2\u00ABtofft\u00C2\u00BBMitN>evftaofnoit4i\u00C2\u00ABtutal, .\nchemiealty dominant emoke filiatf\nentitites,*'Sarah Coxsigneiled. \"How\n, about atorles on LatJn-Amertcsn\nnwsic, politics or dry goods?\" questioned Brian.

The\nlevel of originality in this sub-category in jazz has deteriorated from\nthe intense, driving spirit of early\nfusion masters like Miles Davis, to\nthe dry and very boring sounds of\nlifeless contemporary bands like\nSpyro Gyra. Uzeb is contemporary,\nbut anything but boring.\nThe band overcomes the major\ndilemma facing fusion musicians \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nhow to combine flawless technique\nwith feeling and without power-tripping, as many electric musicians do.\nBassist Alan Caron and guitarist\nMichel Cusson lead the band in their\npursuit to escape machine-like monotony. Both attended the Berklee\nSchool of Music which has produced some of the jazz scene's top\nplayers.\nCaron surpasses most electric bassists in talent, even the great Jaco\nPastorius, who is a major inovator\non the instrument. Switching between three basses including the\nhigh-pitched stick bass, Caron displays incredible technique, or \"chops\"\nin jazz lingo.\nHis abilities shine during solos. A\njazz bassist capable of producing a\nwell-crafted solo is a rare find.\nBecause of the instrument's nature,\nmany bass solos sound awkward\nand cluttered. Caron is an exception. He maintains the same energy\nand employs the same interesting\nideas on his solos as he does when\nplaying fluid cascading lines behind\nthe band.\nCusson is also a guitarist of high\ncalibre. His guitar screams with fire\nand emotion during his lengthy\nsolos, which drew a large roar from\nthe crowd.\nWhat places the band in a superior category is the excellent group\ninteraction. The dual and triple runs\nfeaturing the two axemen and key\nboardist Michel Cyr are precise.\nTake note, the music they play is of\nan extremely challenging level. The\naverage Uzeb tune is up-tempo, and\nvaried in rhythms and harmonies.\nMany jazz musicians would have\ntrouble keeping up with the band's\nhectic pace.\nThey also employ pedals, digital\ndelays, and other gadgets to enhance\ntheir sound and create interesting\nshades to the music. Drummer Paul\nBrochu somehow emerges out of all\nthis activity with his rhythmic contribution.\nAll of the tunes Uzeb played were\noriginals, except for a dream-like\nrendition of the Charlie Mingus\nclassic, Goodbye Pork Pie Hat. The\ntunes Penny Archade and Brass\nLinks especially stand out as vehicles for Uzeb's charging sounds.\nTheir recent appearance at the *\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\nMontreal International Jazz Festival, a set they landed opening for ->..\nMiles Davis, and an upcoming tour\nto France, indicate Uzeb is on their\nway to the exposure and success they\ndeserve.\nCUSSON...electric guitarist with chops to spare\nPANGO PANGO (UNS) \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Hairy\npuce blorgs on this tiny island community were shocked Tuesday to\nlearn that island religious leader\nMoral Dogma had enticed the staff\nof the island rag, The Daily Blah, to\ndrink cyanide-laced kool aide.\nThe sudden deaths lead to a staff\nshortage on the blah, with managing\ndipsticks Bliss Wrong and Paira\nSocks the only remaining staff.\nWrong and Socks had not taken\nany of the deadly potion, since they\nhad been spying on the new rival\ntabloid The Provincial at the fateful\ntime.\nWrong and Socks issued an immediate appeal to island residents to\nsave the paper. \"HELP HELP\nHELP!\" they were heard to grunt in\nunison.\nHas-beens Haig Crooks and Brawn\nBones rallied to the call of the new\nleadership for help, but were unable\nto prevent Dogma from ensuring\nlocal convention of superstitious\npeople dominated latest issue.\nMeanwhile, the island dictatorship\nof Dog Kennel had come to a violent\nend in a bloody coop.

And of\ncourse, we will have to ensure the\ngrounds are kept up.\"\nBoneit said the government would\nspend money on stadiums and tran- -\nsit systems instead. \"If you can't get\nthe public to football and soccer *\ngames fast and cheap \u00E2\u0080\u0094 they won't\nre-elect you will they?\"\nWanted: Experienced quarterback for top flight touch\nfootball team.
