California Assembly
Speaker honors King s
ideals during speech


BY ROSE LIGHTBOURN
Calling for equity for all people
in the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther
King, The Honorable Willie Brown
Jr. last night advised that social
change must be an integrated effort,
while criticizing President Reagan's
policies toward the disadvantaged.
Brown, presently the longest-
serving speaker of the California
State Assembly - and the first
Black to serve in that position -
addressed a crowd of over 300 stu-
dents, faculty, and Ann Arbor resi-
dents at Hill Auditorium. Brown also
acted as national chair for Jesse Jack-
son's 1988 presidential campaign.
In his speech "Empowerment
and Equity: A Challenge of the King
Legacy," Brown referred to King as
"an integrationist of the first order,"
but warned the audience not to let
King's memory fade into a glam-
ourous myth like Washington and

Lincoln.
"(We must beware) of the myth
level. History romanticizes," he said.
"We should evaluate how Martin
lived and (how we can) replicate it."
In his quick, eloquent oratory
style, Brown emphasized that equity
in society will come about only
through a social change.
"Changes will not come about
just on the basis of race, because if
tomorrow every vestige of racism
was erased, cultural differences would
still exist," Brown said.
In a private interview later,
Brown cited the recent Black Action
Movement (BAM III) on campus as
an example here and at other univer-
sities of how students can work for
change. Though Brown said the in-
creased enrollment of minority stu-
dents at the University is a good
start, the numbers of minority stu-
dents must continue to rise.

Brown challenged the University
not only to recruit more minority
students, but to retain them once
they enroll at the University.
In his speech, Brown attributed
Jesse Jackson's success to his ability
of bringing together diverse groups
of people with varying interests.
Brown compared Jackson's political
prowess of "marrying" people of dif-
ferent causes to King's.
"(Jackson) raised issues that af-
fected people (not necessarily) based
on race. The press could not believe
there was a Black man carrying that
kind of message," Brown continued.
"(Even) presidential elections have
facets of racism."
Brown went on to comment
about President Reagan's remarks on
civil rights leaders in an interview
last night on 60 Minutes. People are
just now seeing "the true color of
Ronald Reagan," he said.

Booklet makes
0, esac funds
seeking easier


BY NOELLE SHADWICK
More minorities and women are
seeking funding for research through
the Division of Research Develop-
ment and Administration, and a new
0 booklet may make their search easier,
says DRDA Project Representative
Bob Beattie.
The booklet, released for the
University's Diversity Day, details
70 programs that pay particular atten-
tion to funding minority and women
faculty or graduate student researchers
through private and federal sources.
; By centralizing these programs
in one booklet, DRDA officials hope
to increase participation by groups
often underrepresented in their pools
of applicants.
The number of minority resear-
chers on campus has been small in
pest years in part because there were
fewer minority workers at the
University than there are today, Beat-
tie said.
The booklet should make resour-
ces easier to find for less-experienced
fbculty and graduate students, he said.
The competition by universities
to recruit and maintain the best
minority faculty/researchers has led
to extra incentives and funds
universities devote to minority and

women researchers.
In addition to the grants and
programs described in the booklet,
the University has several funds to
attract and maintain researchers,
including some programs specifically
designed for minorities.
One effort detailed in the 1987-
88 Affirmative Action Report de-
scribes how the University must
recruit and hire Ph.D. candidates,
even before they receive their doctor-
ates, in order to obtain the best
minority faculty members.
But minorities still make up a
small percentage of the University
research staff. According to the latest
statistics calculated by Personnel
Information Analyst Pat Mcintosh,
11.5 percent, or 40 out of 349
people, on the primary research staff
- researchers not funded by the
University - are minorities. Last
year, the 1987-88 Affirmative Action
Report reported that 41 out of 370,
or 11.1 percent, of the primary re-
search staff were minorities.
Statistics for the total number of
minority faculty members who do
research were not available.
The new booklet is available at
the DRDA in the Institute for Social
Research building.

King remembered

s zsspritua
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
was remembered from the pulpit by
f4llow clergymen Sunday as a man
Whose "spiritual genius" and Chris-
tin faith inspired a rebirth of free-
dom.
The official national holiday in
his honor isn't until today, but King
vwas hailed in sermons and speeches
yesterday, the day the murdered civil
rights leader would have turned 60.
"It's not just a one-day remem-
brance, but we need to remember
every day what he stood for and what
he died for," the Rev. Clay Evans,
flho worked with King, told wor-
shipers at Fellowship Baptist


genius


Church in Chicago. "I think we have
to make it not just a dream, and not
just make it a hollow day... but a
holy day."
Ceremonies planned Sunday in
King's hometown of Atlanta in-
cluded the annual "state of the
dream" speech by King's widow,
Coretta Scott King, at Ebenezer
Baptist Church, where King and his
father were co-pastors. An enter-
tainment tribute to King, featuring
Stephanie Mills and Howard Hewett,
was scheduled for the evening at the
Atlanta Civic Center.
King, born Jan. 15, 1929, was
assassinated April 4,1968, at age 39.
