SHARING OF LEARNING - It’s a generation get-together that has always
been vital to the Black community. This photograph by DavldTerrell of
Atlanta expresses the true meaning of the nation’s newest official holiday,
“Grandparents Day,’’ which this year falls on Sept. 13.
The National Council for Grandparents Day awarded this one first prize
in 1980. Mike goldgar, Exec. Secretary, said: “Mr. Terrell caught the very
essence of our new holiday in one single click.”
Black Clergy Plan To
Counter ‘The Assault
Black clergy of several
denominations will gather
in New Grleans la August
13 for ca important meeting
concerning the role the
bGck church must play in
countering the physical,
economic and political
assaults on black life.
The setting of the
"National Gathering of
Black Clergy ' is the 24th
Annual Convention of the
Southern Christian
Leadership Conference.
lhe meeting, which is
to be moderated by A.M.F..
Bishop Philip Cousin, will
include discussions led by
noted psychiatrist Dr. Alvin
Poussaint. professor of
psychiatry at Harvard
Llniversity; Rev. James
Lawson, pastor of Holman
United Methodist Church in
Los Angeles; Rev. Kelly
Miller Smith, president of
the National Conference of
Black Churchmen; and Rev.
Negail Riley, assistant
general secretary of the
Board <4 Global Ministries
for the United Methodist
Church.
Poussaint will discuss
Tony Brown...

Black television series. The
series is sponsored by
Pepsi-Cola Company.
The report, prepared
by Assistant Professor
'Robert Klitgaard, charged
that minorities at elite
universities often did not
perform as well
academically as their test
scores would indicate and
that Jewish students
academically performed
better than their scores
predicted.
Harvard’s Dr. Richard
Lewontin. a nation expert
on genetics, told Tony
Brown, “He's saying
(Klitgaard), point blank, I
think, that everybody knows
that Jews are great
scholars, and that if you
had completely free
admissions policy with no
attempt at affirmative
action, that there'd be more
Jews in favor of Blacks.
That seems to be clear in
what he’s saying, and I say
again that’s ,an attempt to
set one of those groups
against the other." Dr.
Lewontin is Jewish.
lhe comparison of the
academic performance of

“The Effects of Violence on
the Black Psyche,” followed
by Lawson who will lead
the discussion on “A
Theological Response to
Physical and Economic
Violence,” and Smith on
"The Role of the Black
Church in Countering the
Assault." Riley will round
out the meeting with the
topic, "lhe Black Church
in Urban Crisis: The Role
of Community Organizing
in Countering the
Assault.”
Initiated by SCLC,
"The Gathering” during
the convention represents
the second in a series. The
first such meeting was held
in Atlanta last April.
Black clergy assessed
then that the increasing
violence perpetrated against
black Americans has
“structural origins” that
have led to “the systematic
dehumanization of an entire
segment of society through
malignant neglect.”
The clergy concluded
that the black community
must be given a clear
understanding of these
Blacks and Jews in the
report added fuel to the
controversy because
Klitgaard's analysis was
allegedly not based on
Harvard data. David Evans,
senior admissions officer at
Harvard and Radcliffe,
contends that Harvard
doesn’t even racially
identify its Jewish students.
Evans compares the
overall grade performance
of Blacks with the general
student body. “The average
student at Harvard-
Radcliffe is in what we call
Group 3. That is a B-up to,
but not including a B +
average. The average Black
student at Harvard is in
Group 3. a B- up to, but
not including a B-t” says
Evans.
Tony Brown concludes
on this opening edition:
" After the Bakke decision,
it was assumed that if
affirmative action were safe
anywhere, it would be at
Harvard since the Supreme
Court commended
Harvard’s plan as an
exemplary example of
fairness.
structures in order to
develop effective self
defense.
Therefore, black clergy
must accept the
responsibility of being
leaders in helping the black
masses see that violence is
a systematic strategy used
in this society to control
their behavior, and the
behavior of all those who
are oppressed.
This kind of violence is
not just a national problem,
but is international in
scope; thus making it all
the more urgent for Black
Americans to recognize and
identify with the
international struggle to
combat violence.
The meeting on August
13th is designed to further
explore the implications of
systematic violence and
devise strategies for their
deposition.
The clergy will also
consider what can be dote
to ease the devastating
impact the Reagan budget
cuts will have on black and
poor people.
The release of the
Kiltgaard report has put
the university’s integrity in
question. But the smear on
Harvard cannot compare
with the smear it has left
on its Black students."
