Mary Fisher Will Prod
Republican Convention
KIMBERLY LIFTON
Staff Writer
M
ary Fisher, who
entered the national
spotlight in
February with the an-
nouncement she was HIV-
positive, hopes to lift what
she calls "the shroud of si-
lence" from the Republican
Party.
The daughter of Jewish
philanthropist and GOP
fund-raiser Max Fisher is
expected to discuss AIDS
issues with members of the
GOP on Aug. 18 during the
Republican National Con-
vention in Houston.
Ms. Fisher wants to help
raise public awareness about
AIDS, and she is looking for
some support from the GOP.
She has spoken on numerous
occasions about the disease
that has afflicted men and
women throughout the
world in epidemic numbers.
Ms. Fisher this week was
vacationing with her chil-
dren, Max and Zachary, and
she could not be reached for
an interview. But her
spokesman, Jim Heynen,
said her speech in Houston
will carry out a theme she
has established in the past
three months.
During a speech to mem-
bers of the Republican Plat-
form Committee in May, she
said, "It is his (Max Fisher's)
hope and mine that the
Republican Party will adopt
a position of leadership in
the face of America's most
threatening epidemic.
"We have shown a tenden-
cy to be quiet," she said dur-
ing the speech. "I am asking
you, as Republicans and as
Americans, to lift our shroud
of silence and speak with a
voice of compassion."
A lifelong Republican who
IP*
was the first woman
"advanceman" for Repub- •
lican President Gerald Ford,
Ms. Fisher also is expected •
to ask the Republican
leaders to better address the
issue of safety, her spokes-
man said.
"I am not a special interest
group and this is not a spe-
cial interest disease," Ms.
Fisher said in her Com-
mittee speech. "The differ-
ence between AIDS and
other leading killers is that
AIDS is a communicable
plague. You cannot catch el
heart disease; cancer is not •
contagious. But AIDS cuts
across all traditional boun-
daries: race and age, com-
munity and class."
Ms. Fisher was raised in
the Detroit area. She at-
"I am asking you,
as Republicans
and as Americans,
to lift our shroud
of silence and
speak with a voice
of compassion."
Mary Fisher
tended the University of
Michigan and Wayne State
University. Her professional
experience includes televi-
sion production at PBS and
Detroit's ABC affiliate,
WXYZ-TV.
She also has been involved
in public service, including
work with the National
Council on Alcoholism and
Drug Dependence, Detroit
Music Hall and the Detroit
Educational Television
Foundation.
Ms. Fisher recently found-
ed the Family AIDS net-
work, a national member-
ship-based association of
AIDS-concerned individuals
and families. ❑

Local Jews And Muslims
Condemn Slav Violence
DAVID KOTZEN-REICH
Staff Writer
F
ollowing mounting
reports of "ethnic
cleansing" involving
the murder of Muslim
civilians, the Jewish and
Muslim communities of
Detroit are condemning the
atrocities in Bosnia and
Herzegovina.
A joint statement, issued
by the Jewish Community
Council of Metropolitan
Detroit and the Detroit
Council of Islamic Organiza-
tions, is part of a nationwide
chorus against actions in the
former Yugoslavian repub-
lic.
"When you read about this
`ethnic cleansing,' it lit-
erally takes your breath
away. It brings to mind
horrible images from the
past," said Jeannie Weiner,
president of the JCCouncil.
"Certainly we as the Jewish
community want to express
our concerns."
