NEWS The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, March 22, 2006 - 7 ACTIVIST Continued from page 1. ing an unarmed protest. Later, the government declared illegal liberation groups such as Pan African Congress and the African National Con- gress. "Nonviolent activity became impossible," he said. He said his group resorted to sabotage. "Recruits were trained to plant bombs in apartheid buildings where there were only Euro- peans," Kathrada said. The recruits didn't want to detonate bombs where they could injure people, so they set most of them off during the night. He described his years as a prison inmate at Robben Island Maximum Security Prison. Kath- rada was allowed one visitor every six months for only 30 minutes. He also mentioned the disparity of treatment of white and black prisoners involved in the move- ment. While black prisoners were often consid- the michigan daily ered heroic, whites were not. "The whites regarded the white prisoners as traitors, so they were treated in many respects much worse than we were treated," he said. While in prison, Mandela wrote his autobiog- raphy and Kathrada and another inmate, Walter Sisulu, wrote a few essays, which were copied and smuggled out of the prison to be printed elsewhere. He described it as a "highly danger- ous undertaking." When prison guards found the originals, Kathrada and his group lost their study privileges for four years. Kathrada talked about the terrible treatment many prisoners endured. "(The security guards) used physical torture and emotional torture," he said. He recalled a friend's face being bashed in by guards and another friend thrown off the sixth floor of police headquarters. "The loss of those people never ever left me," he said. The police were never punished for these actions, Kathrada said. They would invent expla- nations for the deaths, ranging from suicides to accidents like slipping on soap. For reasons unbeknownst to him, Kathrada was never tortured. He briefly described his life before his incar- ceration, including a romantic relationship with a white woman named Sylvia, which at the time was illegal. When he went to prison, he said, Sylvia was exiled and eventually married another man. The first democratic elections in South Africa were held in 1994 when Mandela became president. Audience members turned out to hear Kathra- da's story firsthand. "My sister went to South Africa and told me his story," LSA sophomore Paula McDowell said. "I wanted to hear it from him. The movement was more than just Nelson Mandela." Elizabeth James, program associate for the Center of Afroamerican and African Studies, said Kathrada's lecture was a unique opportunity for students. "The opportunity comes so rarely of see- ing someone who is living history," James said. ARTWORK Continued from page 1 across the Flint campus. "A is for art. B is for body. C is for censorship," one message read. Later, Walesby revisited his ear- lier suggestion, deciding instead to surrender the drawing's fate to UM- Flint. Hogan said the decision came from an ongoing discussion and that Walesby's decision was unaffected by the controversy on the Flint cam- pus. "The entire time, we tried to offer some guidance and resources," Walesby said. "We wanted to be advisory, not make a ruling." With the ball in its court, the UM-Flint provost's office decided to allow the LGBT Center to dis- play the drawing as part of an art exhibit. The LGBT Center lent the draw- ing to the campus's art gallery, where it spent a week on display as part of a collection of LGBT-orient- ed artwork. Last week, the LGBT Center's collection moved to Flint's Good Beans Cafe. Eventually, the drawing will return to its original home at the LGBT Center, Miller said. UM-Flint also sponsored a discus- sion about the drawing two weeks ago, where administrators, members of the LGBT community and a law- yer from the American Civil Liber- ties Union spoke against the work's removal. About 100 people attended the event. Like the controversy in general, the discussion helped make students aware of transgender issues, Coon said. "This has been a victory for us," she said. UM-Flint Chancellor Juan Mestas agreed, saying the dialogue on cam- pus has influenced the community positively. "Yes, the drawing has been con- troversial, but controversy gives us a chance to consider what we each consider art," Hogan said.

He got his foot in the door at his first jobs by being willing to get coffee and deliver papers to the higher-ups. "You have to stick around and do those menial tasks," Walker said.

Part of the Ginsberg Center for Community Service and Learning, it connects nine undergraduate and graduate divisions, including the Ross School of Business and the School of Public Health. Social Work Prof. Larry Gant, an evaluation consultant for the Amer- iCorps program, said a reduction in financial resources could make it more difficult to get students involved in the program, as well as the ability to provide high-quality training. "More and more service learning opportunities are being compelled to be run as volunteer opportu- nity, but you can't run these kinds of initiatives on pro bono time only," Gant said. "Students may be able to secure places on their own, while others may not be able to be involved without the money and the training." In his proposal, Bush also rec- ommended the elimination of the National Civilian Community Corps, a division of AmeriCorps. Most of the budget reduction the parent corporation will face in the 2007 budget - $48.5 million - results from the termination of the NCCC. The NCCC is an elite yet expen- sive arm of the AmeriCorps pro- gram, including about 1,000 full-time volunteers stationed at five regional campuses across the country. While other service groups within AmeriCorps provide disaster relief, the NCCC distinctly focuses its training and response efforts on disaster situations. For this reason, Anderson said she did not understand the rationale behind shutting down the NCCC. "NCCC has been instrumental in providing human resources in times of critical need, for example, serv- ing in areas affected by Hurricanes Rita and Katrina," Anderson said. "They perform the type of work that really is not appropriate for other national service programs, like the National Guard." But despite the cuts, Corporation spokeswoman Siobhan Dugan said AmeriCorps is expanding overall and will be able to support 75,000 members in the future compared with the 70,000 currently. "AmeriCorps members will con- tinue to engage in service and do the work they've been doing for 12 years," Dugan said. "I hope people take advantage of the opportunity and realize the importance of the need for people for disaster relief in the Gulf and apply for those posi- tions." Through the University's Ameri- corps program, Business School junior Brian Bae worked as an intern at Focus:HOPE, a non-profit organization that facilitates com- munity projects in the Detroit area, such as food distribution centers and children's day care. Bae said while the budget cuts are problematic because sufficient funding is crucial to the success of AmeriCorps, the announcement is in keeping with the general decrease in federal support in numerous areas. "If they gave us more funding, it would be helpful to the organiza- tion," Bae said. "But we need to make do and adjust to the situation." President Bush's proposed federal budget of $2.77 trillion for 2007 would increase spending on nation- al security to aid the country's fight against terrorism. To address the deficit, the plan advocates the purg- ing or reduction of 141 government programs, including AmeriCorps, housing and urban development pro- grams. !!!
