8A - The Michigan Daily -Thursday, November 13, 1997 BARAKA Continued from Page 1A may (make $60 million), but we need to watch out for you because you're probably the enemy." Later in his speech, Baraka yelled to the audience while discussing the place of poor people in society. "It is not right that your child can get an education and mine can't; that you can eat and I can't," Baraka said. Audience members responded enthusiastically to Baraka's speech. "He's been an inspiration to me. This has been a very powerful experience,' said Tamera, an LSA junior who did not want her last name used. Baraka advised black and work- ing-class students to not waste their time while in college by concentrat- ing on University-imposed sub- jects. He told them not to worry about being the first African American to succeed in traditionally white-domi- nated areas, but to go back to their communities and figure out how to improge conditions. Throughout the entire speech, Baraka promoted the idea of a revo- lution He paralleled the difference between the United States' two-party system to Europe's multiparty sys- tem, and said that Bob Dole and President Clinton are virtually inter- changeable in a "winner take all" system. "I am a communist and a socialist. I believe that everything belongs to everybody," Baraka said. He added that he believed in self-determina- tion and democracy and stressed that students should learn all they can from revolutionaries around the world. "You can't make change until you practice change," he said. LSA sophomore LaDawna Reynolds said she went to listen to Baraka speak because she was curious about his mes- sage. "I'm here because I think it's going to be a very interesting experience, and I'm interested in what he's going to say," Reynolds said. Throughout the speech, Baraka pro- moted non-traditional reading. He told students to read great authors such as DuBois, Herman Melville and Frederick Douglass. He also encouraged students to read the slave narratives, works from the Harlem Renaissance and revolutionary writings from the '50s and '60s, saying these works compared well to Shakespeare's.

A red car weaved in and out of traffic, then pulled up behind. Shots rang out. Then two gunmen in khaki jackets and traditional baggy Pakistani garments leapt out, strode over to the black car and emptied the clips of their Kalashnikov rifles inside. After checking to see if all four Americans and their Pakistani driver were dead, the gunmen fled. There was no claim of responsibility for the attack, but it followed the U.S. conviction Monday of a Pakistani, Mir Aimal Kasi, in the shootings of two CIA employees outside agency head- quarters in Langley, Va. U.S. officials had been warned of possible retaliation. "It is premature to say why they were killed, but there is a strong possibility that it was linked to Kasi's conviction and sentencing," Karachi Police Chief Malik Iqbal said yesterday. "We know it was a target killing. It wasn't random firing." In Washington, President Clinton's spokesperson called the killings "an outrageous act of barbarism." However, White House press secretary Mike McCurry stressed there was no direct evidence of a connection with the CIA case. Pakistan President Farooq Leghari wrote Clinton to express his shock at what he called a "terrorist" attack on "four innocent U.S. nationals." The let- ter was delivered to the U.S. ambas- sador in Islamabad. The four Americans, all auditors for Houston-based Union Texas Petroleum, were traveling from their hotel to their office when they were intercepted by the gunmen. The gunmen later abandoned their vehicle near Karachi's central post office and disappeared, the police chief said. The slain Americans were identified by Texas Petroleum as: Ephraim Egbu, senior auditor; Joel Enlow, manager of audit projects; Larry Jennings, audit manager; and Tracy Ritchie, senior audit supervisor. The bodies of the men, all in their 40s, were to be flown home to Houston today. "Our heartfelt sympathies go out to their families and their friends here at Union Texas," said company chairper- son John Whitmire. McCurry said the killings would not affect plans for Clinton and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright to visit Pakistan. Clinton's trip is scheduled for early 1998; Albright is to arrive Sunday. Hours after the shooting, a crowd surrounded the black car, looking at the blood spread on the seats and shattered glass in the windshield frames. A bloody newspaper lay on the road near- by. Iqbal said police have put together a description of the attackers and have begun a manhunt. The Pakistani Cabinet met in an emergency session and named a special investigative panel. Kasi was convicted of first-degree murder by a Fairfax, Va., court for the Jan. 25, 1993, slayings of CIA employ- ees Frank Darling and Lansing Bennett. The two were shot in their cars at a traf- fic light outside CIA headquarters. Kasi's capture in Pakistan in June in a joint FBI-Pakistani security force oper- ation incensed many Pakistanis, who objected to him being whisked out of the country without an extradition hear- ing. Tribesmen from his hometown of Quetta had sworn to avenge the capture. U.S. prosecutors had argued that Kasi acted to avenge American meddling in Muslim countries, including the bomb- ing of Iraq during the Persian Gulf War. However, Kasi was described as a loner and there was no evidence he belonged to any organized terror group. A newspaper vendor sells late editions of local papers carrying the news of the killing of four Americans and a Pakastani driver yesterday morning. *1 Retai i 0 Now Hiring!
