The Michigan Daily - Friday, February 13, 1987 - Page 5 Groups condemn contra aid By CALEB SOUTHWORTH Members of the Latin America Solidarity Committee continued their weekly protests of U. S. involvement in Central America at the Federal Building on Liberty Street. No one was arrested. Yesterday's rally, their sixth, was co-sponsored by the Religious Coalition on Central America (RCCA), a group of local churches committed to ending contra aid and the bombings in El Salvador. Before the demonstration, buil- ding security guards told the protesters that they would not be allowed inside the building and warned them they would risk arrest Turkish student group begins lecture series if they came closer to the building than a specified line. LASC members displayed a banner at the bottom of the steps with a plea from Archbishop Oscar Romero, saying "In the name of God, stop the lies, stop the killing." Peter Beauvais, a member of the RCCA, gave a short speech calling for "education for our hearts." "It is not always wrong to use force, but it is always wrong to desire to use force," he said. Beauvais said the soil in Guatemala is red with the blood from peoples hearts and it was time for the violence to end. Shirly McRae, an RCCA member, decried the repression with a placard showing the number of recent deaths in Central America. This Sunday the RCCA will launch a letter writing campaign aimed at pressuring Michigan Congressmen into eliminating current and future aid for the contras. People from both groups distributed literature about future demonstrations and letter. campaigns. LASC plans to continue protesting at the Federal Building on Thursdays. LASC members will also attend the larger protest to stop U.S. intervention in Central America in Kennedy Square in Detroit on March 29.

"The first is to provide a home away from home for the Turkish exchange students and also tries to bring together people who share the same interest and background," she added. The second goal is to present Turkish heritage and culturestothe Ann Arbor community, Koyluoglu stressed. The Turkish Student Association also sponsors Turkish movies shown twice a month, a Turkish Hour on WCBN on Sunday mornings, and helps to sponsor other events such as the Ann Arbor Ethnic Festival. In May the club and the Department of Near Eastern Studies will sponsor a one and one- half day symposium on the era of Sultan Suleyman The Magnificent.

David Schoem, Pilot' Program director, said the purpose of the O program was to discuss all forms of racism and ways to confront them. The teach-in featured both formal lectures and informal rap sessions about racism within and outside of the University. Workshops focused on the direction of the Civil Rights movement, institutional racism, racism in the media,the subtleties of racism, and many other issues. hIn one workshop, English V lecuturer Ralph Story, said that much of the overt attitudinal racism minorities experience often has root causes in the American educational system which often ignores the contributions of black culture and people. "You can go through the entire. '(educational) system, from K thr- ough 12 to a Ph.D and not learn what anybody black or what black culture is like... that's institutional racism," he said. ..do- Call for show times P- HAIR DESIGNERS.
