Jim Hightower, the famed bamstonning, tree-shaking, Texas state
agriculture commissioner called fm- a
revival of grass-roots populism and
economic democracy as a remedy to the
"economic snake-oil of the SO's, the
Voodoo economics of Ronald Reagan and
Voodoo n under 'Brother Bush'."
Hightower was this year's guest
lecturer at last Thursday's 5th annual
Willi Unsoeld Seminar, The Unsoeld
Seminars are held annually in memory of
the late Willi Unsoeld, Evergreen
founding faculty and noted mountaineer
and political activist.
Unsoeld perished in a avalanche on
Mt. Rainier in 1979. His widow, U.S.
Representative Jolene Unsoeld (D,
Olympia) introduced Hightower.

(To every old man and his garden.)

The garden green again this year.
green and bright. and ful/ of light.
Every season the same ...
with nature forCing seeds to grow
and putting my father's hand to hoe.
He gives to the garden every year.
To give life ...
and peel back the shock
and let the pumpkin follow its true wild nature.

He will fade Into the color of winter.
giving himself to ·the garden'
to realize a nuance of perennial/sm.
the vigor the youth,
never ending seasons...
father will die
Nature will force him to do this ...
nothing more.

But:
as the garden grows green.
a piece of father Is taken,
preserved.
a nuance.

Green again.
reffectlng colors year after year,
every season the same
os father grows gray.
Laughing again,
os nature allows plants to become perennials.
while father withers.
Because father puts his energy there.
Hand to hoe. mental stakes, ffeshwood and soli.
The garden Is gren again.
bright. full of light.
repeatably photographic.
With nature laughing. forcing.
allowing the plants to return with vigor.
(The vigor of youth.)
Nature laughing because Father:
with smooth-handled hoe
who allows pumpkins to take a wild nature
who peels the shock.,.
sows his life each year Into the garden
because nature won ·t force or allow him to become perennial.

High School Memories
I remember the dark-skinned girl
draped over the broken radiator
in my history class.
And nobody said nothin.'
I remember the plastic shine on
her face caused by the inch-thick
make-up she used to cover the purple
bruises. It never seemed to help much,
but nobody said nothin.'
I remember the crimson stain on the
radiator caused by the blood fall she
would have every now and then.
Still, nobody said nothin'
I remember her sayin,'
"It hurts, but I'm tough .
Leave me alone, damit!"
So nobody said nothin.'
I remember the teacher taking her
to the nurse one day. I don't
remember ever seein' her again.

Hightower argued that the great
economic expansion of the 80's was
largely illusory, and that the Republican
claim of people being better off today
was simply fraudulent He cited figures
from the Congressional Budget Office
showing that 80% of Americans lost real
income after taxes.
"Four fifths of us lost income,
another 10% of us stayed the same. But
in the most fortunate classes of our
society, the top 10% of our citizens
experienced a 16% growth in their annual
income, the top 5% gained 23%, and the
wealthiest one percent of Americans saw
a 74% increase in their annual incomes."
" .. this group averages $2,700,000 in
assets and $280,000 in annual income.
HONK, if that's youl ... these don't
represent the most industrious or the
hardest-working or the smartest or the
best lookin' folks in our society. They
got their wealth the old-fashioned way.
They got the government to give it to
them."

Progressives in Majority
Hightower disputed the idea of a
conservative majority in the American
electorate. "There's a populist, progressive
majority out there right now."he said,
citing recent polls of registered voters
that indicated the following: 64% of
voters think that government favors the
wealthy,
the
powerful
and
big
corporations; 70% think that government
should do more to protect citizens from
the power of the big banks, private
utilities, and big corporations; 75% think
that rich are getting richer while the poor
and the middle class are losing income.
Exit polls of voters in 1988 elections
showed that most Americans were
concerned with issues and policies very
different than what they got under
"Brother Bush". Hightower noted that
while 45% of those who voted in 1988
wanted no new taxes, 51 % said we .
should increase federal spending to
education; 55% thought that providing
long-tenn health and health insurance for
everyone was a priority; 59% wanted to
protect American jobs from low wage

"... the trickle down
theory of economics
is alien to American
values,"
competition in foreign countries; 66%
thought that government should help. the
poor and the homeless jobs, &helter and
a dtl/i:ent..-living; 73% were in favor of
impoSing
stricter
regulation
and
enforcement on industrial polluters; 77%
thought that the weillthy and the big
corporations should be forced to pay their
fair share of taxes.

Olander loses trust
by Tina Cook

Loss of trust in college President Joe Olander
has developed into a crisis, the faculty has toM
the Board of Trustees.
In a resolution adopted Feb. 7 and delivered
to Trustees last Wednesday, faculty ask:ed for
more direct communication among faculty, deans,
and Trustees.
"Over the years, and critically in the past
months, there has been a loss of trust in the
President by an overwhelming majority of the
faculty," the resolution says. Contributing to the
loss of trust have been Olander's refusal to
renew Provost Patrick Hill's contract, inaccuracies
in Olander's resume, and his advertising for two
vice presidential positions without consulting faculty.
"This loss [in trust] is now so widespread
and serious," the resolution continues, "that the
current crises cannot simply be ignored or waited
out.
"There is a long-standing lack: of communication and possible misperceptions between the
Faculty and the Poard of Trustees."
The resolution stated it was important that
faculty meet with Trustees "in order to provide
the Board an understanding of the history, past
accomplishments, current issues, and future possibilities of the academic business of the college.
"It is crucial for the future of the college
that a shared trust, responsibility, and agenda be
established between the Faculty and the Board of

Trustees."

The Evergreen State College
Olympia, WA 98505
Address Correction Requ~sted

Academic Dean Carolyn Dobbs expressed a
desire to, "move beyond the current crisis and
look toward the future." She said the meeting
with the Trustees "was a positive first step. It
seems like it was received in the right spirit."
Trustee Kay Boyd said, "I'm willing to work
with the faculty ...and hope together we can find
creative solutions so the work: of the college can
be carried out without so much focus on perceived problems."
The resolution called for a small group made
up of Academic Deans, members of the Faculty
Agenda Committee, and oth~ interested faculty to
begin communicating regularly with the Trustees.
According to the resolutiOn, the group "is empowered by the Faculty to negotiate with the
Board of Trustees on its behalf regarding the
President's tenure and responsibilities."
While she is interested in an evaluation
process, Boyd said, "there is no negotiation with
Trustees on the tenure of the president."
The Board of Trustees, which has declared its
confidence in Olander twice since June, has the
authority to hire and fire administrators.
A story in The Olympian noted Olander did
not comment directly on the resolution but said,
"when there's a war, collaborators get shot."
Through secretary Shirley Walter, Olander
refused to talk: with the
regarding the
resolution and the quote because he was too
busy with the legislature.
In response to the resolution, the Trustees
agreed to meet with faculty but did not set

cn

specific dates to do so.
Boyd emphasized "the communication process
with the faculty and board needs to include the
president." Technically, Olander is considered a
member of the faculty.
When asked why the resolution was written at
all, Faculty Agenda Committee Chairwoman Rita
Pougiales described it as a "general response to
a number of Joe's actions. For a number of
faculty this goes back: to Joe not renewing
Patrick:'s contract." (in June.) In addition, she
said, faculty are concerned with the controversy
surrounding Olander's credentials and the way he
conducted the search for a new Provost. The
events lead up "to what some faculty seem to
believe represents a pattern," Pougiales said.
In January, Olander placed two national
newspaper advertisements for two college vice
presidencies, academic affairs (provost) and finance
and administration, asking that responses be sent
directly to him. Olander had previously agreed to
collaborate with faculty in forming a search committee.
The resolution included the faculty's enthusiasm
about meeting with the Trustees and gave a list
of accomplishments made by the faculty and
academic administration over the years.
Written by the academic deans, the resolution
was one of several - that had been proposed, one
of which called for Olander's resignation but was
not adopted by faculty.

curricular tracks that would probably be
developed are management, liberal arts,

Gail Martin spoke about involving
part-time students in C3ll1pus life,
suggesting
that
opportunities
for
involvement with student group activities
and access to student support services be
built into the part-time student's academic
schedule. Time could be provided for
things like academic advising, "instead of
it being seen as an idiosyncratic add-on."
Martin did not respond to strictly
academic concerns. "Let's even talk about
things
as
radical
as
residential
opportunities,"
she
added,
saying
arrangements could be made for students
who needed a place to stay occasionally.
possibly with their families as well.
Consisting almost entirely of
Evergreen faculty and staff, the audience
voiced concerns with maintaining
effective faculty and doing appropriate
planning to avoid overworking staff.

custodians could only work graveyard

Barbara Smith addressed ' the
academic focus of a weekend/evening
expansion. The college serves four
different kinds of part-time students:
evening, weekend, daytime, and full-time
students taking part-time courses. The
categories are not interchangeable, Smith
said, and each must be given special
consideration.
Special
programs
are
being
considered as well. In addition to regular
courses, Smith said. there is interest in
both a graduate and a Teacher Education
program done in a part-time formal
Smith emphasized fewer credits
would not mean poor quality. "We want
to parallel the best of the full-time
program." This would include team-taught
courses
that
would
be,
"as
interdisciplinary as possible."
Developing curricular pathways for
part-time students is another priority,

How would an increase in weelcend
and evening students affect Evergreen?
Should, or could, the weekend/evening
college program follow the design of the
daytime program? What curricular
pathways need to be developed for parttime students?
These and other questions were
addressed at a community forum on Feb.
13 which explored issues surrounding the
possible CJlpansion of part-time classes
offered at Evergreen.
"Being a state-funded college, there
is very little Evergreen can do to fight
off growth," Evergreen President Joseph
Olander said at the beginning of the
meeting. He explained that expansion of
the weekend/evening college would be
one response to pressure for increased
enrollment
Forum panelists concluded that an
expanded weekend/evening program
would include increased student services,
for example evening hours for the
bookstore, health services, admissions,
and academic advising.
When asked how soon the program
would be implemented, Olander said

The grim history of CFC's
111 COIIlinlullioll from 1M "PortlflNl de/ealS
CFC's· article prillled ill the Febrwuy 8,1990
Iss,", 14 Volwne 20, here is an O\II!TIIiew olthe
history of clr1orofluorcarbollS.
complied by DuaDe Drummond

CFC Overview:
-1930: Kinetic Chemicals, a joint research
project of General Motors and Du Pont
culminates in the making of dichlorif1uoromethane, a CFC-based refrigerant.
Originally synthesized as a combination of
one atom of fluorine, one atom of carbon, and
two alOmJ of chlorine, CFCs were intended as
a ltable fluid that would be nonflammable
and noncorrosive for use in pipes of
refrigerators as excellent absorbants of heat
from the system so that the pipe coils could
cool food. Du Pont began commercial
production in 1931, dubbing the amazing
compound "Freon." It is known to us today as
CFC-12.
Dow
Chemical
introduces
a
-1945:
newfangled use for the CFC as an important
part of the process in the manufacture of a
rigid. lightwr.ight foam. Liquid CFC-12 is
vaporized into gas which is trapped within
foam bubbles to make a product useful for
blocking heat and cold (because CFCs are
poor thermal conductors). Dow calls its
insulation material "Styrofoam."
-1945: CFCs as propellants contribute to
health and hygiene development, as the stable
liquid turns gaseous when released to the air
from a pressurized can. During the war, it is
used mainly to spray insecticides. But in the
post-war era CFCs are favored as propellants
of deodorant, perfume and hairspray. CFC-ll
and CFC-12 are both put to use in this way.
-19405: Widespread applications of CFCbased coolants in building refrigeration for
homes, hospitals, shopping malls and schools
give significant new options to the population
expansion into hot-weather regions of the
country. Today, not only are more than 90
pere<:nt of new residences tIuoughou t the
South built with central air conditioning, but
more than 70 percent of new homes around
the nation are as welL

.19405: Mobile air-conditioning in automobiles

On Wednesday February 21st the
Student Union sponsored a class to train
students to become voter registrars. This
will be followed by a voter registration
drive where the goal is to register 300 to
500 new voters.
Voter registration is one of the most
basic fonns of participation in' our
government, yet students have very low
voter turnout levels. The result is that
students' interests are not adequately
represented, and students' needs are
ignored by our elected officials. George
Bush is proposing major cuts in financial
aid partially because he knows ':Iat
students are not organized enough 10
affect his future re-election chances. Part

of any national or state campaign 10
increase support for higher education
must include massive nationwide voter
registration campaigns.
If you are interested in assisting with
the voter registration drive or would like
infonnation about how to become a voter
registrar contact SCC at CAB 205,

History lies behind Barb's Cuisine
by Dora Taggart
When entering Barb's BBQ & Soul
Cuisine
one
immediately
feels
comfortable. The atmosphere feels "just
like home." The red and yellow decor
are a feast for the eyes, and the walls are
lined with pictures of civil rights leaders,
Jazz Musicians, and pictures of Barb and
her family. It is a small place, with
around eleven tables and a piano in the
comer.
Barbara O'Neill, the owner of Barb's,
is there just about every night. I sat
down to talk with her one evening to ask
her about her experiences in Olympia.
She moved here in 1968 with her four
children because she thought it would be
a better place to raise children than New
York City.
She decided to open Barb's when she
got a particularly large tax return and
because she was on an counseling
committee that advised people on selfemployment. She was one of the founders
of Minority Women in Business in
Olympia, and through this she learned of
the opportunities for woman and
minorities to contract with he state.
"When I thought about going into
business I thought it was just a change of
direction and probably in the path of
growth .. .1 also believe that with my

family. I am the fust generation
entrepreneur and maybe one day my
grand kids will grow up and want to own
their own business too," Barbara
selfcommented
about
becoming
employed.
This encouraged her to open Barb's
in November of 1983. It seemed a stable
form of income for the future. She hoped
to give Olympia a fun place to go and
listen to Jazz. For a while it was the only
place in Olympia one could go to listen
to Jazz. But the most important thirig to
her about Barb's is serving good food.
Barbara has a natural ability for
cooking. She was married for many years
to a service man and IJaveled a lot
because of this. She believes in the cook
book. When she opened the restaurant
she served more traditional Soul-Food
items such as pigs-feet and chittlins.
Also, the Creole dishes were a lot spicier.
But she found the community preferred
less spicy dishes and couldn't tolerate
other items, so she changed the menu for
her clienteles taste.
Her cuisine is recognized as exquisite
by most who dine there, and she won
first prize at the Bite of Thurston County
in four categories a few years ago.
Barbara O'Neill grew up with Jazz,
and she loves Rhythm and Blues. She
started Jazz at Barb's in 1987 when she
closed her other restaurant, Barb's Jazz
City on Martin Way, because running
two restaurants and working full-time for

the state proved too much for her. At the
present time she is in need of more Jazz
musicians, and encourages students to
apply. Barb's also has folk music on
Saturday nights.
Barbara has always been intensely
involved in community service in
Olympia. Here are just a few of the
projects she has been involved in: The
Off Campus School Board, the YWCA,
the Thurston County Urban League
Committee, Thurston County Family
Planning, Thurston County Community
Action, Washington State Bar Association
Human Rights Committee, Governor
Evans Productivity Council, and the
Washington Center Board.
For her outstanding community
service she has received awards such as
the
Martin
Luther
King
Junior
Humanitarian Award '90, LlJdy of the
Year of the Capitol Lady Lions, The
Governor's Volunteer of the Year Award,
and she also has been named as one of
the top eighty citizens that made a the
biggest impact in the eighties by the
Olympian.
She feels community service is vital
because people need a fair policy and
that she is good on committees such as
these because she has been close to the
kind of problems they deal with.
Barbara comments, " ...I feel that if
someone wants to get out there and role
up their sleeves and help to make it a
better community there is plenty of work

for everybody."
Barbara experienced a lot of racial
discrimination when she moved to
Olympia. She experienced cross burnings
and other things which were to disturbing
to talk about She feels prejudice against
people of color remains a very negative
aspect of Olympia. Barbara explains,
"One day it dawned on me that I was
either part of the problem or part of the
solution, and [ had to make up my piind
what I wanted to be." She decided to try
to change things by becoming involved in
the community.
Barbara graduated from Evergreen in
1978 with a degree in business
administration. She attended school for
three years, and was greatly encouraged
by her faculty advisor Margaret Griskvov.
She loved Evergreen because she felt that
teachClll and students were both able to
teach, and it taught her to feel that she
could be anything she wanted to be.
Her future plans for Barbs it to find
a bigger place when she retires or make
a chain of Barb's from California to
Vancouver B.C. For now, make sure to
come to Barbs this Thursday for The Jam
Session featuring Donell Baldwin and
Will Humphreys, Friday for Micheal
Moore on the Jazz Piano , or Saturday
for Cloud Wells and Bill Mcarty.
Dora Taggart is an Evergreen studenJ
and is
currently
conducting
an
ethnography of Barb's Soul Cuisine.

Ghosts!

ADother WashingtoD by Chris Bader
The "Urban Onion,· a popular
downtown Olympia spot, used to be the
cafeteria for the old Olympian hotel,
which was mown for its exlIavagance
and included a large ballroom. Ghost
stories about the Onion have "floated
around" for years.
Brendon Chertoic an Evergreen
student in Health and Risk in Modern
Society. He has worked at the Urban
Onion for over five years and recently
found time for an interview about his
experiences.
Chertok had heard stories about the
restaurant's ghosts well before he worked
there. "Everyone at the Urban Onion has
a story to tell," said Chertok.
Most "ghost" sightings take place at
night, when an employee is alone.
WOrkClll report glimpsing people out of
the comers of their eyes, only to have
that person disappear. The ghosts are
often desa'ibed as "women in long white
dresses."
Brendan has had several such
sightings himself, but says that the ghosts
seem "friendly enough;" he has never felt
threatened by the ghosts, merely startled.
In fall of 1986, however, the ghosts
did frighten Brendon.
He was working la1e, closing the
restaurant; no one else was in the
building and the doors were locked.
Suddenly Brendon heard a loud crash,
as if somelhing had been .hurled against
a wall. Running into the hallway from
which he had heard the noise, Brendon
saw a broom lying on the ground; one
that is usually kept in a closet at the
other end of the hall. Brendon thinks
that, perhaps, one of the ghosts threw the
broom against the wall.
If the "broom incident" was, in fact,
one of ghostly doing, it was the only
time Brendon witnessed such a violent
display.
So, at this time we can only guess as
to why the Urban Onion houses so many
restless spirits. As of yet there have been
no stories of mass murders, ancient burial
grounds, or gasp!, devil worshippers.

The right choice.

Black history often ignored
by Darrel W. Riley
History, particularly the history of
African-American people, is rife with
people and events that have a powerful
impact but are not widely acknowledged.
This lack of recognition is partly due
to the way history is recorded. Historians
look for the intellectual fervor of a time,
the ideas that are expressed and codified.
These are the things which make sense to
historians, they are the rational history of
which our textbooks and education are
made.
.
However, the events of a time are
hardly 'governed by intellect, as historians
would have us believe. Intellectual fervor
is often a sideline to the controlling
events.
Nothing shows this more than the
events which began at the turn of the
century, and the three men who
challenged the nation's social fabric.
Historians would have you believe
that the major black focus of the time
was the philosophical struggle between
W.E.B.
Dubois
and
Booker
T.
Washington, a controversy continuing
today. It is their writings we read when
we look at black history of the time.
Reconstruction had just "failed"
mainly because black politicians and
voters had been slaughtered in great
numbers to prevent them political power.
The myth of the rapacious black male for
whom white women would swoon in lust
was rampant, as were lynchings.
It was inevitable. Sooner or later a
man would excel in the only fields left
open to blacks, and the man who could
excel in spite of discrimination would be
Supennan, confuming all the fears of
white men about the excellence of blacks.
White people at the time never
understood they set up their own honor
by preventing anyone lesser from gaining
access.
Jack Johnson was one of the greatest
boxers in history. His pictures alone leave
no doubt that he was a formidable man.
His punches hurt, and few were able to
take them for long. When Johnson
decided he was good enough, he pursued
the World Heavyweight Boxing title. The
title holder at the time was Jim Jefferies.
Jetferies resigned rather then fight a
Negro.
The next titleholder, Tommy Bums,
did not want to fight Johnson either.
Finally they fought, on December 26,
1908 in Sydney, Australia. Johnson won
in 14 rounds.
Johnson, however, was not the
subservient black man whites were used
to. He was brash, rich, carried out public
and violent affairs with white women,
and drove insanely fast in fancy carS'. He
was an annoying fighter, one' who
humiliated his opponents by making fun
of them in the ring.
Finally, whites convinced Jefferies to
come out of retirement to fight Jack
Johnson. Jefferies became the flI'St "Great
white Hope." whites around the world
depended on Jefferies to show the
"nigger" his place. Jefferies' training was
widely covered, and most predicted
Johnson would fall quickly to defeat.
The fight was held in Reno in 1910
and from the first it was clear that
something was dreadfully wrong. The allwhite crowd watched as Johnson toyed
with Jefferies for 14 rounds. Johnson
taunted the crowd by calling out where
he was going to hit Jefferies. Jefferies
couldn't stop him.
In the 15th round Jefferies landed
punches which annoyed Johnson. Within
a couple seconds Johnson beat Jefferies
so badly Jefferies rolled across the mat
and out of the ring to escape. ' Jefferies
later said that at his best he couldn't
have landed a punch on Johnson_
Out of this one fight the course of
American history changed.
The fust, and most immediate
impact was the numbers of lynchings that
night Whites marched , into black
neighborhoods and killed almost everY
black man they saw. Eight black men
died in racial incidents in the aftermath
of the fight.

Commentary
The interstate transportation of fight
fdms was banned for fear films of the
fight would inflame the black population.
The black stereotype was confirmed
in full to many white people, a stereotype
that would haunt blacks for close to a
century and justified keeping blacks out
of sports
and
other
forms
of
entertainment.
President Woodrow Wilson began
some of the most segregationist policies
in American history, and white hatred
was so inflamed that few complained.
The most far-reaching impact of this
fight, however, was the creation of the
Mann act by Congress, forbidding the
transport of women across state lines for
"immoral purposes." This Federal law
was passed specifically to get Jack.
To help in the enforcement of this
law a new agency was created, one
which became the F.B.I. Is it any wonder
later civil rights wolkers didn't trust the
F.B.I., an agency founded in racism? A
Federal law and agency created to "get"
one man. Amazing.
Finally his white wife committeu
suicide. Soon after the mother of
Johnson's girlfriend was pressured into
bringing charges against Johnson for
violating the Mann act
The only problem was Johnson's
current white girlfriend was a prostitute
who had not traveled across state lines to
meet Johrtson but to earn a living, and
only after crossing slate lines had she
met Johnson.
The ·F.B.I. continued searching and
finally a previous girlfriend I proStitute
was persuaded to give testimony that
Johnson had paid for her trip from
Pittsburgh to Chicago.
Johnson, aware he was involved in a
fighl he couldn't win, skipped the
country. He was not to return for seven
years, and by the time he returned he had
lost his title.
When 30 years later another black
man had the possibility of becoming
heavy-weight champion his trainers were
adamant he not be like Jack Johnson.
Joe Louis was to be quiet and
restrained in public, not to gloat over his
opponents deficiencies, not to carry on
public affairs, and not be seen in public
ever with white women. The only release
he could gain was in the ring, where he
was allowed to pulverize his opponents.
Because of his public demeanor,
Louis became popular among both blacks
and whites. Louis became a symbol for
all Americans against the Nazi menace
when he beat the German Max
Schrnelling in his most famous fight on
June 23, 1938.
Blacks felt the triumph strongly, and
after the fight in cities throughout the
U.S. blacks marched into white
neighborhoods. It was a quiet march, and
there
was
almost
no
violence,
nevertheless it was clearly a victory
march.
When Louis joined the American
Armed Services, he gave generously to
the Army and Navy Relief Funds. The
United States government, however,
charged Louis income taxes amounting to
$150,000 on his donations.
Louis spent the rest of his life trying
to pay the back taxes on his gifts, always
aware that everything he possessed could
be taken away by the U.S. government to
pay his taxes. He began using drugs to
numb the pain from fighting long after he
should have retired because he needed
the money. He died a great man who had
been humbled by the might of the I.R.S.
Thirty years later came the fmal
member of this trio, Cassius Clay, later
known as Muhammad Ali. Like Jack
Johnson he was loud, brash, cocky, and
rich. The major difference between Ali
and Johnson was, because . of Ali's
religious doctrine, he did not drink or
have public affairs with white women,
but the spector of Johnson lay heavily on

him during his career.
The United I States government had
rid themselves of Johnson by passing a
law banning his activities. Louis they had
taxed out of existence. Ali in the midst
of the civil rights movement waS too
public to do either. Instead, in the late
1960's the U.S. Government drafted him.
When Ali declined to murder for his
country on the basis of his religious
beliefs, he was stripped of his title. Few
would defend him, in spite of the
assistance he had given to others over the
years. He was not to regain his title for
many years, and then only after fighting
all other challengers.
However, in his role as a black
leader he was a powerful influence on
American culture.
February is black history month.
Once I thought holding a month devoted
to black history was a cop-out for not
including blacks in history textbooks.
Now I realize that blacks are excluded
from textbooks in part because their
contributions aren't in the fields that
historians talk about. Yet often the fields
left out have more impact than the events
of history that are discussed.
Blacks excelled in the only areas
open to them.
Black drivers dominated car racing,
until
they
were
excluded
from
competition.
Black Jockeys won horse races,
including the Kentucky Derby, until they
were excluded from competition.
Black writers had a strong impact on
the early social life of the American
colonies, until they were banned from
writing. Later writers during the Harlem
Renaissance had a powerful influence on
American culture, which has been
carefully negated in history until people
no longer understand why the 20's and
30's were seen as "creative" times.
Black tradesmen built most of the

American South, until they were banned
from working.
Black politicians dominated politics,
until they were killed.
A black woman became the first
Woman millionaire in the United States
by selling hair products.
One could write history books which
completely ignored the impact of white
people in this country. This book would
discuss the railroad workers, the practical
inventors, the musicians and dancers, the
fanners who cultivated the foods which
dominated European agriculture for 300
years. Few white people there.
That's not history. It's only fragments
of perspective, less fragmentary than the
current history books perhaps, but still
fragments.
Black history is the history of
America. Blacks, along with the Native
Americans, are a people with no home to
go back to. When my Indian aunt says
"Load the boats, and go back home," she
excludes blacks for we have no home to
go back to. America is our home, our
only home. American history is our
history, our only history. Our connection
to Africa is by mainly skin, less by a
culture forbidden our ancestors.
One day, Americans will wake up
and realize the strange attempts to
segregate history into races causes a
nation without a cultural heritage to build
upon. We live in a vacuum of history
and culture, one in which the attempts to
deny Native American and black culture
deny white culture as well, because they
are all one in the same. But until our
history is whole we must continue to
have a Black History Month to talk about
the contributions of black people to
history, and to remind us of the
contributions of all people to American
history.

Opinion

J:[1Nf

by Jon "Eppo" Epstein

The food service issue has raised its
greasy head once again.
People have
discovered that Marriott's contract is up for
renewal soan. Many years ago, when we
referred to the food service as SAGA,
Greeners attempted to place a "branch" of
the Olympia Food Co-op in the location of
the Deli on the second floor of the CAB.
Our good intentions were thwarted by the
Board of Trustees. As is the case in most
issues on campus, the Board has the fmal

word. Convincing the Board of Trustees to
consider a change should be the fIrSt item
on the agenda of people pursuing this issue.
The Board turned us down last time partly
because the Co-op had no history of
providing food service.
The Co-op is primarily a grocery store.
However, the Co-op has provided a small
successful deli service for a few years, and
could

grown 10 Size, with armual sales
of ovm' 1..5 million dollars. The Olympia
Food C<H>p is a substantial organization
and could potentially operate a cost
effective deli service on campus. Would
customers see a substantial reduction in the
price? I doubt iL The cost of rent for the
deli space is enormous. I don't think. the
C<H>p could realistically operate the deli
with volunteers. The deli would largely be
staffed with wage earners. Starting wages
at the Co-op are $5.00 an hour. This is
more than Marriot presently pays employees
and therefore labor would cost the Co-op
more than it costs Marriott. I think the Coop could operate competitively with
Marriott Prices to the customer would not
go up. They may even be reduced by 10%.
Anyone seriously investigating this
issue must consider if the Co-op has any
interest in this proposal. It would certainly
take a general vote of the membership
which could be time consuming. Since the
membership
is mostly Greener Grads and
Greeners It· would most likely pass on a
bailoL I think. the Co-op could provide
much better quality food at the deli. If you
like tofu sandwiches, fresh squeezed carrot
juice and exotic pasta salads, then the Coop is for you. However, if you enjoy the
present offerings of greasy pizza, chocolate
donuts (my favorite) and roast beef
sandwiches, then the Co-op may disappoint
you- I believe the Co-op would have to
provide a mix of junk food and healthy
cuisine in order to satisfy the campus need.
Marriott has attempted to ride this fence.
I do not think: they have done a great job
riding thins fence but they are clearly on it
The Food Co-op has not been willing to
ride the fence. The Co-op has continued to
support its policy of not selling white sugar
or products containing sugar. This policy
has been upheld by the membership in two
ballots. Meat products at the Co-op are
limited to unprocessed varieties and are
very costly. The average customer may not
want to pay $5.00 for a roast beef
sandwich. The Board of Trustees could
argue that the healthy type food is already
available at the Slow Food Cafe. I think
the Slow Food Cafe provides the best food
at the best price in town. Olympia's best
kept secret. However, there are those on
campus who do not like the food at the
Cafe. These people were seen campaigning
for Dan Evans instead of dining at The
Slow Food Cafe (formerly "Corner Cafe")
and voting for Mike Lowry.
I think the Food Co-op should take
over the deli space. I also think they should
continue to sell chocolate donuts (my
favorite). The Co-op deli should ride the
wave of hypocrisy and sit on the fence.
They don't have to compromise at the
grocery outlet but I think they should
compromise with the Board of Truslees. As
I alluded earlier, I am not sure the Co-op
has any interest in pursuing these issues.
Good luck to those of you that take this

the Bush administraPon's version of
the drug war amounts to a very
selective war against people who
are involved with drugs. Putting the
administration's moralistic rhetoric
aside, it is clear that the "enemies"

the U.S. as well as political
leaders in the Third World who do

pointed out, the living conditions in
inner-city ghettos are similar to
those faced by many people living
in the Third World. For instance,
unemployment rates often exceed
fifty percent, educational systems
are under-funded and overloaded,
and infant mortality rates are disproportionately high.
These are the conditions which
have given birth to a drug
economy within the inner city.
Drug use is a means to temporarily escape these intolerable condi-

rections" and a 142% increase in
funding for law enforcement, N(Jtional Drug Control Strategy, September 1989, issued by the White
House).
While The inner-city poor who
are involved with drugs are systematically persecuted, more "respectable" elements of our society
involved with drugs face no difficulties. In regard to money
laundering, apparently there have
been no investigations in regards to
allegations made by cartel leaders
concerning their connections
to U.S. banks. Moreover,
William Bennett raised no
concern over the $8 billion
surplus which mysteriously
showed up in Miami and
Los Angeles banks. Yet
Bennet had no problem
evicting low-income res idents, mostly black, from a
public housing project in
Washington D.C. due to
their drug use.
On the domestic level, it
is evident that the Bush

tions while drug sales are a source
of much needed income. As the
rap group NWA recently stated in
an interview, many drug dealers in
the inner city are supporting their
families with their income.
Acknowledging the fundamental
causes behind drug use would lead
to pressures to solve the problem
through increasing social programs.
As was mentioned earlier, such
spending poses a threat to the existing social structure and is therefore not a policy option. Thus,
root causes behind drug use are
conveniently ignored so that the
inner city poor can become the
new "enemy." Accordingly, the
Bush administration proposes to cut
social programs in order to beef
up law enforcement and provide
new prison space for our new-

war on the under-class.
While the
"communist threat" justified an
enormous military budget and a
dearth of social programs in the
past, the "war on drugs" serves as
a J'ustification for cutting existing
social programs as well as the systematic repression of the inner-city
poor.

Mandela brings hope
by Carol Hall
For 27 years we've heard the cry,
"Free Nelson Mandelal" And finaUy
Mandela is free. After years of following
the anti-apartheid movement in the U.S.
and abroad, my heart was full of joy as
I watched the televised scenes of
Mandela and his wife, Winnie, walking
hand-in-hand out of the prison gates. And
when Mandela returned to Soweto, his
home town, tears of emotion welled in
my eyes as this noble hero joined with
the thousands gathered to welcome him
home, Singing the beautiful anthem of
black South Africa.
The release of Mandela comes on the
heels of so many other dramatic changes
in the world in the past year, changes
that promise freedom from the tyranny of
oppressive political regimes.
In East
Germany, Romania, Poland, the Soviet
Union, and many other nations, people
are demanding reforms and are gaining
more personal and political freedom. The
winds of cha.lge are sweeping the world
and building to hurricane sttength. It
seemed to be only a matter of time
before South Africa's white minority
government, one of the most oppressive
regimes in the world, began to feel
increasing pressure to change.
Mandela is fee, but is South Africa
changing? Not on the surface, for

Page 8 Cooper Point Journal February 22, 1990

Mandela the "free man" still cannot vote
in his own country, and he left prison to
return to segregated black township of
Soweto, to the small modest home he
shared with Winnie and their children 27
years ago. The economic, political and
social lives of South African blacks have
not changed significantly since Mandela's
arrest in August 1962. Most blacks still
live in poverty in segregated townships or
"homelands," are not allowed to vote, and
aren't allowed to enter certain areas of
their own country. Nelson Mandela is an
international hero and celebrity, but a
second-class citizen in South Africa.
But Mandela's release means more to
South Africa than merely a kind gesture
to the Mandela family. While in prison,
Mandela became the heart and soul of
the African National Congress and the
entire
anti-apartheid
movement
worldwide. His release symbolizes a new
hope for social and political change in
South Africa. Indeed, since he took over
the white regime's reigns of power last
year, President DeKlerlt has been talking
to Mandela, Walter Sisulu, and other
black leaders in an apparent effort to
begin negotiating a gradual dismantling of
apartheid. The possibility of universal
adult suffrage in South Africa, also
known as "one man one vote," is even
beiDll discussed bv DeKlerk..

The release of Mandela, the
legalization of the ANC, and DeKlerk's
conciliatory attitude toward black South
Africa are all positive changes. For
Mandela and other anti-apartheid leaders,
there is little doubt that these dramatic
changes were brought about in large part
by the pressure of economic sanctions
against SouJh Africa by the U.S. and
many other nations. Since his release,
Mandela has stated that it would be a
very unwise move for the U.S. or Europe
to remove those sanctions at this point in
time, just when the white govemment is
beginning to cave in.
President Bush has suggested that he
would personally like to see the sanctions
removed, but doesn't think such and
effort would get past Congress. The
sanctions are essential for maintaining
sufficient economic pressure on the white
minority government to give them
continued incentive to dismantle their
apartheid system. I hope Bush and other
leaders listen to Mandela and other black
South
Africans
who praise
the
effectiveness of the sanctions and plead
with the world not to left them yet.
Perbaps with continued economic and
political pressure, we will see an end to
apartheid in our lifetimes.

Students presentation bad
by Suzette Williams
A well-meaning group of Evergreen
students once again has reinforced state
legislators' stereotypes of Evergreen
students, and probably asswed passage of
some very detrimental legislation. The
House Highet' Education Committee held
a public hearing Monday on a bill which
would require an armed security force at
all four-year state colleges, including
Evergreen.
Although I strongly agree that
campus security guards should not be
armed, I was embarrassed to identify with
a group that presented itself as badly as
most Evergreeners did at Monday's
hearing.

Drunk drivers take lives
You have plans for your life - goals
to reach - a brilliant future ...
So did Linda Lancaster, a doctoral
candidate at the University of Maine,
Orono, Maine. On February 18, 1989,
the drunken driver of a pickup truck
struCk her down as she and a classmate
walked along a sidewalk in the campus
community. Linda died three hours later.
All her goals and plans for the future
were wiped out in one senseless moment
of drunken violence -- a violence our

legislatures have yet to recognize as
murder -- and our courts of law waiver
ovet' justice for the victim.
you have plans for your life -- but,
take a moment as you walk across
campus to ponder on your chances of
becoming the random victim of a
drunken driver. We all carry the same

we can -- and must -- keep our streets
and sidewalks safe.

Editor' s note:
There is a letter in the CPJ office
regarding the U.S. invasion of Panama.
Unj'ortunalely, the signer left only a
psuedonym ("Scaramouche"), aM we are
unable to print it. The letter defends the
intervention into Panama, and given the
Evergreen
political
climate,
the
psuedonym is understandable. But WI!
would love HScaramouche" to sign his
real 1UJIIte so he could share his views
wilh rhe Evergreen community through the
medium of the CPl. In the meantime, if
you want to read the letter, stop ITy the

The timeless question, "How do you get a good job without experience,
and how do you get that experience without a good job?"
The answer could be Microsoft's Co-op Program. At Microsoft, anything
can happen. As a Technical Associate Co-op, you'll provide technical phone
suppon to a variety of users of Microsoft software all across the U.S. On an
average day, you may talk to a Midwestern housewife or an East Coast executive
one minute, and Julia Child or an owner of a small software development
com:pany the next. If you are comfonable with word processors, spreadsheets,
windows, BASIC, C, Pascal or MAsM, this is a great opponunity for you to get
real-world experience before graduation.
We're looking for students who want to prove something to themselvesthat they've got the enthusiasm and motivation needed to make it with the
world's leader in microcomputer software. Excellent command of the English
language and great problem-solving skills are a must. Experience as a computer
tutor or programmer is a definite plus.
Our paid co-op positions are full-time and last for a duration of nine
months. Relocation assistance is available for non-local panicipants. Additional
benefits include a competitive salary, membership in our local health club and
software discounts. In fact, after you complete the nine month program, you'll
get the ultimate discount on an IBM compatible or Macintosh computer
(depending on group assignment) - it will be yours to keep!

Act now-

We're hiring for Summer and Fall
We have a limited number of co-op positions, so contact your Cooperative
Education Office by March 2nd for more information about the program,

New! Kids show on KAOS
"

by Tim Gibson
Every Kid in Olympia can now ride
the pony express, hear Eskimo folk tales,
visit the world's greatest alchemist, and
travel East of the Sun and West of the
Moon.
All they have to do is tum their dial
to KAOS every Satwday from 11:30 to

noon.
Designed for kids eight to twelve
years old but suitable for listent7S of all
ages. KAOS' new kids show, entitled

through slOries. songs. interviews. and
special features.
Actor John Lithgow. an Oscar
nominee for his role in "Terms of
Endearment" and "The World According
to Garp", guides the program through its
five segments which cover topics as
diverse as the environment, the origins of
stories, and the exploits of Medieval
Knights and Kings.
Tom Freeman. who airs the show for
KAOS. admires the inventiveness of the
producers of the show.
"It is well crafted. professionally
done, and affords children an imaginative
alternative to the usual Saturday morning
garbage on T.Y .... Freeman said.

"I understand that's the case."

see it for yourself.
This album start off strong with a
hardcore style reminiscent of Millions of
Dead Cops. "Huddled Masses" points out
the inequality in the land of the free,
while "Dirty Harry for President" is about
government corruption.
The trend continues with "Three
Blind Mice," warping nursery rhymes to
the rune of exploitation.
"Tofu

of "Snuffed Out"

be one of the best cover runes I have
heard in a long time.
The hardcore drops out for "Acid
Reindeer," an eerie, quiet tune that really
makes you think. The switch from
distorted electric guitar and 60 m.p.h.
drums to acoustic guitar is a bit of a
shock.
Flip the disc over for "I was dupe for

the RCP," about some gig they got
tricked into playing. The title track
"Metal Devil Cokes" exposes an evil soft
drink conspiracy. GoUy!
This is where the hardcore stuff ends
and the "other stuff" begins. "Hole in My
Soul," "I'm a Knucklehead" and "Ain't it
Funny" are all a little too dopey for me.
Dopey lyrics and dopey music made
dopey songs. A little disappointing when
compared to the rest of the album.
"Mongoloid" returns to a hardcore
style. preaching that drugs and pregnancy
don't mix. Next, if you liked "Love
Potion No.9" you'll love the hardcore
MDC version.
The last song is another watped tune,
"Something for Everyone." This is a good
song. but not a very strong ending for
the record.
All in all, this album is like the
Sphinx: it looks real good at the
beginning. but starts to crumble at the
end.
Don't get me wrong; I like this
album. Just buy this record for the
hardcore half and tape it without the
dopey songs. You won't be missing
much.

"I actively pursue quality pre-recorded
programs," Hinds said, and when NPR
sent KAOS information on the program,
he immediately foUowed up on it.
.
According to Hinds, KAOS receives
the show free of costs due to the funding
provided to the program from the
National Endowment for the Humanities.
But how many kids really listen to
KAOS anyway?
"It's hard to tell." Hinds said, "the
ratings don't take that into account."
However, both Freeman and Hinds
say that KAOS has already received
some positive response from listeners in
the area.
"We're going to try to keep [F.8st of
the Sun-West of the Moon's] slot as a
children's slot," Hinds said.
Thanks to Hinds, Freeman, and the

C<H:hefs and owners, Eogenio Aliotta
and Patti Brandt efficiently prepared the
evening specialties.
Following the
entrees, crisp garden fresh salads were
served in Italian tradition by waiter and
prep-cook Kenny Pugh. To complete the
meal. we enjoyed Profiterolles (small puff
pastries filled with vanilla ice cream
which were smothered in a luscious hot
dark chocolate sauce) and Salame Turko
(slices of chocolate almond cookie roll
topped with vanilla ice cream and
maraschino cherry halves).
AU entrees and
pastries at Trinacria's are made to order,

the premises, and available for talce-out.

you to arrive at Trinacria's when Patti
and Eogenio are not constantly "on the
move," conversing with them will be a

pleasure in itself. Patti is an Olympia
resident of thirty-two years, and her
husband, Eogenio, has resided here for
one full year. He is a native of Catania,
Italy and dislikes the concept of fast food
which is abundant in America. Patti
previously apprenticed at local restaurants
where she acquired necessary skills.
"We never serve pre-packaged
foods." she stated with pride. During
busy hours, she has learned to improvise
with ingredients effectively. "This is not
my life dream," she said when asked. "I
have always wanted to write a children's
book. I am working on one now."
Obviously. she is able to schedule
time effectively. Eogenio compliments
the partnership with knowledge of food
preparation gained when his father taught
him that it would be difficult to
distinguish well prepared food from
poorly
prepared
food
without
experiencing culinary arts first hand.
Trinacria's hours are from 11 am
through 2 pm, rcopening at 6:00 PM until
the last customers leave Monday through
Saturday.
The
ristorante
can
comfortably seat twenty-six patrons and
will accept reservations by phone at 3528892, though they are not required. A

which. upon approval, will allow the
