A GAP CAN BE A BEGINNING?
Generation gap--you cry to your youth
but what fo those who say cultural gaps that weigh
our skin, judges our color and maintains
the right to scoff our religions centuries old as colorless and cold
as the withered pages that creed it so
Generation gap you cry
but weigh the tons of unknowledge that pull apart the cultures of old
who live side by side in this land of the brave and the free
that shrouds the native sons of this land of thousands of years
who cry frozen bitter tears; the Black who bitterly fight
to keep their souls, their hearts and their being quiet
least cold judgments begin anew
Silent in the night somewhere we weep
and twist in futile torment
to life the blanket of the blind
must we forever put our own Indian prayers to the wind
we who are made into pseudo Christian Indians or Black Afro Jews
do we forever forget who we are and what we mean?
American is . . . the way of all; the sad, the good, and the peaceful mad
but for those who walk snow high, thigh high where the cold creeps
damned those who are the cold and frosted smiling beards
bugle sound hollow siren echoing, beckoning the hopeless ahead
welcome to the land of the living--the chamber of the dead
To bridge the gap--and open closed doors, do we open our hands in greeting-folded arms, or raised clenched fists?
Can we reach you one day with hands together, brother Suyapee
or do we remain together yet alone.
Mary F. Nelson

"As a person of color, a Native
American, I know from personal experience that the transition from my
own Native American culture to one
that is predominantly white can at
times be a traumatic and fearful
experience. Therefore, I feel that
it's the duty and responsibility of

(Maxine is available for advising
to on-campus students on Mondays
only.)
Maxine began teaching at TESC in
1972. Her dedication to students
showed in her support and advocacy
for those who sought teaching
credentials before there was a
teacher certification program on
campus. Her dynamism and outreach
to her community led to the development of the Tacoma program, where
she is currently teaching. She is
also the mother of three children,
two of whom attended TESC and one
of which has subsequently graduated.
Words cannot describe Maxine; one
must meet her to know her magic.

Gail has been a member of the faculty since
1980. She is a poet and weaver from the
Onandaga Nation. Below is one of her poems .
Laughter breaks 1ike sun rising;
the whole world shimmers and light
shakes as though the belly of earth
moves with the mirth in one's own gut.
The power to celebrate excess wakes in us;
we know enough to joke around, to survive
the agonies of feeling irreversible pain
explode upon the day. We sing of folly
that shapes experience, remember
to act indelicate and play, Coyote,
mangy as ever, grins and whispers
our sister's names; he plots to climb
into the sky and dance with stars
down some eternal day. We giggle
like children, grateful that fool
never did learn to behave. Life
carries us down a stream that ~urgles
between rocks and sings improbable
songs. Who cares we'll have to paddle
like hell and know panic before we get home.
That's how all the good stories were born.

York began working at TESC in 1973 as
Director of Computer Services. He requested
faculty status, though it meant a reduction
in salary, and began teaching in 1975. He
also served as an Academic Dean from 1979-81 .
York has been instrumental in developing
curriculum with a Third World perspective
and is a strong advocate for all programs to
include Third World people's histories and
cultures. He has done extensive research
and has written a paper on American Samoa.
He is the only faculty member with any background in Asian American studies. Below is
his statement to Third World students.
lt has been a long time coming, teaching and
learning at Evergreen. First there was IBM,
followed by administrative busy work at
Columbia that, looking back, low points in
the 26 years from my undergraduate days .
Then some improvement with the Mayor's Office
looking for easy solutions to NYC's poor.
The lack of quick fixes shattered that illusion fast! And the next ideal toppled with
Chapter 11, lauding on my partnership with
Harlem blacks. Things Fall Apart. I needed
a stronger foundation, one that begins in
the head to complement the heart. One that
found the basic building block in Political
Economy. v/hi r: h i -; wh at. r rj () at: Fv r>rYJrr>r>n .
