June Jordan, poet and pro­
fessor at the Stllt.e Unaversity of
New York at Stony Brook, gave
the Gender symposiUm keynOte
addess, specifying the need for
equabty ,JUStice, and tenderness,
Tuesday Apnl 11 to an overflow
crowd in the Council Chamber.
"We need to be unified and
not be separated by race, gender,
and class. We need to avoad
separate allegaances and bridge
all gaps," Jordan saad. Jordan,
who said she has been inspired
bythetifeofMartinLulherKmg,
Jr., opened and closed her ad­
dress w1th the poem "Solidar­
ity".
She began her speech with
an anecdote of an experience that
she had in France a few years
ago. She and three black women
tried to take a taxi in the pouring
rain, but no taxi stopped.
Jordan went on to identify
race, gender and class as pans of a system called "identity poliucs."
She cxplruned adenuty politics by
saymg, '"What as w be done?' has
been replaced by 'Who am I?"'
However. she said, people she saad.
She hopes to be like the
Sandlrusw U\ Central Amencaand
like the Afncnn Nauonal Congress
in South Africa m her struggle to
ul am looking for an umbrella big
enough to cover the tactical and
mora/limitations of identity politics.''
-June Jordan
should stop playing the game of
adcnbty poliucs.
"Race,'' she said, "is a social
and pollucal structure. It is time
for a radical reassessment. Race
alone cannot be a base ...
.. The habits of cln.ss deny lbe
functions of gender," she said to
provid.eanOJWnple.. ThetraditionaJ
calls to unity by race, gender or
cln.ss will fail because no single
component proves valid for all, fllld JUSUCC and cquahty.
"Both lhe Sandmtstas and the
ANC wtU tn.umph bccuuse they
hold more than resistance," she
satd. '--rhey know JUstice is not
blacl;Jwhue or male/ female or
class.. There is no peace or law
without justice."

some poems. Her host there was a
"half-caste, Irish-carrtbean"
woman. This woman told Jordan
of the struggles Lha1 her whu.e

class system in England.
Jordan said, "lC 1 tried to talk

students how tO get their point
acros$ in an intelligent and con­
suuctive manner, Holsworth
said.
Preparntion for the confer­
ences is an essential step to be­
coming involved in the MUN.
To prepare for the MUN ses­
sions, the prcsidcnLS of each
chaptu get wgether and ran­
domly draw nations for each
college chapter. The hosting
chapter decide." on the is ues to
be covered. Then, over the next
month, individual delegates
conduct their own research, be·
coming familiar with the issue
and their nation's position on
that issue. Students then v. rite
position papers stating their
nation's position. These papet
arc used a.c: credentials to get
admitted into the conferences.
At the conference, the indi­
viduaJ delegates from C41Ch
school play the roles of ambas·
sadors in the Gcncrn.l Assembly
and in the various commiuoes.
Lewis and Clark's Chapter
is noc. as large as moq of the
othercoUegechaptcrs. "It seem
thotLewisand Clark la~ behmd
the cxher colleges in tcnn of or­
ganization." Holc;;worth l.ated.
·•Many colleges have the MUN
as a class. with the professor
giving much more guidolnce and
cooching than at Lewis and
Clark."
When the delegation returns
April 16. they will be holding a
de-briefing meeting to talk about
theconferencennd to make plans
for n~L year
"From what professors nnd
vete.ran MUN people have ~id.
there seems to be a lack of conti­
nUity from year LO year in our
Chapter," Holsworth said, .. and

The purpose of Crime/Hat is to make the Lewis and Clark

other reasons for the use of

Whitey Well wherever I go, 1 very
rnrely see many Blacks m key posiuons of
employment, and I've an.endcd some of the fmcst . hoots around, yet 1 sull don't see
mnny Bhlck.s.
BlackJe Has u ever occurred to you
that the academac mstituuons which you
have attended are very cxpcn 1vc'J Many
quahfted Bla l.s studcnL'i arcunable to nt­
tcnd becausc.lheu farmhes cannot afford iL
Th1. dlscnmannuon hD.S handicapped the
cconomac, and the academic growth of
Blacks for years and suU docs.
Whitey: That was then, we arc talking
about now
Blackte· You don't think that Bhlcks
are sull bemg dascnmmac.cd agrunst'l Then
you arc really l.avmg masheltcrcdworld thnl
as bland to the truth.
Whtc.cy: Nowadays, some BJacb have
good jobs. You guys nre ach•evmg a lot m
the arts and ent.cn.wnment sectors, nnd sporu,
JUSl as much as Whu.cs or even more.
Blnckte Blacks are very talented and
they can do well an other are3s too, not just
the ·pons and enteruunment sectors BJacks
are JUSI as competent as Whues an all areas.
What.cy· Well, 1fthJS IS true, then why
don't 1 ee more Blacks m mrunstream soci­
ety?
Blnckie Haven't you heard a damn
t.hmg I've satd? It's because Blacks have
been excluded for many years and only JUSt
wilhm the past twenty years have Blacks
began to make sorM real progress.
Whitey· Well, what about here at LC1
Our AdmiSSions Office has very senously
tned to recruit Blacks. but they usually can't
meet the academic rcqultCments . The ones
that do make it and do attend usuaJiy need
Financial A.td and they usually wmd up
getting tlln many cases usmg u all up from
Whue students who could probably usc it.
Black1e· You really area stck indtvtd­

what you are saytng. L.
Whu.ey. Yes l do. LC 1s a highly
acadcmtc msutuuon whtch ts for htghcr
learning purposes. When some Blacks are ue
admitted this lowers their standards They
ha,·e many programs for Black students.

when nil of the Black pcr.;pecuve students

well. and 1 only have myself, my family, and
God to thank.
Whtc.cy · There arc a few exceptions.
but on the whole Blacks are not doing as

Blackae: Hey. I know my people
got problems, just like your people do, but
they ain't stuptd. You probably thmk that
the more Blacks admttted to thiS college the

Here· sa story about little Johnny
Brown:
People always asked him,
"Johnny, why are you always
smiling?"
'"Cause J got a marble in my
pocket .. Johnny would say.
When the skies were cloudy
or the weather was bad, little
Johny Brown kept on grinning as
wtde as a ciry block.
Whenever people asked him
why he smiled, he would refer to
the marble in his pockeL No one
understood what he mean~
though everyone wondered.
Everyone except his mother. reaJ bad customer. One yeUow
afternoon, the little guy found his
way inLo a five-and-dime store
wtth visions of candy prancing in
his mind. As soon as he entered
the place, he was met by a large.
round man, red in the face. "WeiJ,
nagga boy. what you dom' in
here?"
Johnny walked past the man
with not so much as a glance. The
man's face became even more
flushed. "You ain't nothin' but a
lowly mgga lookin' for a hand­

bought his candy and quickly left
the store. Never during the en­
counter did the smile leave
Johnny's fau. wa\ wondering how it wa..c: that you

tltings to you."
Johnny answered frnnJc.ly ... I
didn't think he was aalkin' to me."
Theman was bewildered. "He
said the word nigger,Johnny . You
were the only negro in the store.
He was puttin' down your charac­

a kind of mvolvemenl that can't

"My older brother, Chns, and

explains.

the procedure is based on body density (baslcally, fat tissue is
lighter than water or muscle. enabling us to determine lean body
weight). Calipers for skin fold teSting are olso avm table ror those
who would rulhet not be submerged in the wat.er.
Testing usually takes 45 minutes for a treadmill examination
and less than that for the underwater weighing or skin fold testing .
All participants are furnished a copy of their resultS and an
evaluation based upon these results. They are also given the
opponunity to receive a specific exereise prescription and a re­
evalUDtion at a Inter time in order to evalwuo progress .
