The Michigan Daily-Friday, June 16,1989-Page 2 Youth continued from Page 1 democratizing the society as a whole. "And then came the Palestine Intifadah which erupted in December 1987," said Mazrui. He said that although the Palestinian youths were militarily much weaker than any of the Arab armies which Israel had defeated in five wars, they were "endowed with a moral will which was of a different urder."' "Then in Beijing in the spring of 1989, another set of young people initiated their own form of Intifadah," said Mazrui. At first the demonstrations in Beijing, he said, were given more tolerance by the regime in Beijing than any tolerance extended to Palestinians under 20 years of Israeli occupation. Mazrui added that while the Third World (that is, most of Asia, Africa and Latin America) has a high propensity for collective masochism, the First World (Europe, the US and Japan) has a long record of collective sadism. "Third World countries commit brutalities mainly against their own people. First world countries com- mit their worst brutalities against other people,"said Mazrui. Mazrui said this spring, the stu- dents in China (which is ideologi- cally part of the socialist Second World, but technologically is part of the developing Third World) declared "modernization without democratiza- University Lutheran Chapel 1511 Washtenaw Ave. Ed Krauss, Pastor 663-5560 Summer Schedule: Sunday Worship at 9:00 am Wadnama nnar a nm ion was not enough and the students wanted to move closer to the First World paradigm."1 He said China's Third World real- ity surfaced with the reassertion of collective masochism during the bru- tal weekend in June. On the whole, Mazrui said Israel is both technologically and ideologi-; cally a First World country, in spite. of fact that a large proportion of its population is ethnically Third World. Mazrui said Israel, which started as a product of deliberate Jewish col- onization in 1948 with the estab- lishment of settlements was "very much like the settlements of the Mazrui Dutch speaking whites in South ... compares China to Palestine Africa" He said the question arose not a threat to Israeli security, but a whether the Jewish state would be- threat to Israeli democracy. come an imperialist power in its He said the most immediate own right. threat is that of the escalation of vig- ilante settlers within the Occupied '...all these theories and Territories. ideologies have ignored "At a time when the U.S. is get- ,,, ting out of the whole tradition of the "chosen age grade lynching, which has been part of the - Africanist Ali Mazrui American experience up to the 20th century, Israeli citizens are learning the brutal tactics of lynch mobs and "Is it a case that just as white private executions," said Mazrui.

LaGROC speaks out BY ANN EVE LET H About 25 members and supporters of the Lesbian and Gay Men's Rights Organizing Committee gathered at Hill Auditorium Sunday at the Plymouth Canton High School Graduation to combat the continued insensitivities to gay men and lesbian rights demonstrated by the high school paper and the school's principal. The principal refused LaGROC's request to come to the high school to distribute information about gay men and lesbian rights after the school paper ran a homophobic editorial, which included "(gay men and lesbians) deserve to be shot." Sunday, protesters distributed flyers to dispel myths concerning les- bians and gay men. Last October, a Plymouth man was murdered because he was gay. "The editorial perpetuates this kind of violence," said LaGROC member Linda Kurtz. Research head named BY ANN MAURER Prof. William Kelly will be recommended to serve as interim vice- president for research by University President James Duderstadt at the University's Board of Regents meeting next week. If approved, Kelly will begin his appointment July 1st, replacing Linda Wilson who has been named president of Radcliffe College. Kelly has been with the University since 1956 and is presently the associate vice-president for research. He is an internationally recognized authority on the application of chemistry, minerology, and petrology to the study of ore deposits. As vice-president, Kelly will be involved in research projects cam- pus-wide including medical and military. This past year, Kelly chaired the LSA dean search committee to find a replacement for Peter Steiner, who will retire in August. Kely also served on the LSA executive committee from 1984-87 Invisible galaxies found BY MICHELLE RABIDOUX The University hosted 475 astronomers from around the world this week for the 174th meeting of the American Astronomical Society. "We meet only two times a year and a lot of discoveries get made in the six months between meetings," Steve Maran, an AAS press officer, said. University Prof. Gregory Bothun presented his research on low-sur- face brightness galaxies - potentially huge masses of stars that never developed the visibility of galaxies like the Milky Way. Sidney Wolff, Director of the National Optical Astronomy Observatories, and Patrick Osmer, a project scientist, discussed the pro- posed building of two eight-meter telescopes in Hawaii and in Chile for full-sky viewing. The computer-driven telescopes will have a diameter of 8 meters and are. expected to cost between 125 and 130 million dol- lars to build, considerably less than sending a space satellite to take such photos.
