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... Continued From Page 2 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 Support Our Advertisers “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." ■ National REVIVAL Tour WAKE THE TOWN AND TELL THE PEOPLE COME OUT AND HEAR THE WORLD’S GREATEST FEMALE EVANGELIST DOROTHY SMITH THE WILDERNESS PREACHER (WENDELL, S.C.)

Walker said the church has a strong emphasis on economic matters The issue points to these addtional facts. Female church members out number males two to one. 'lhe aierage age of church members ts 48.3 yeais. Ninety-five percent of the ministers said their church participates in some type of economic development program serving between six to 200.000 persons, and providing jobs for two to 250 persons. Eighty percent reported church asset ranging from $84j)00 to $34 million. Over 90 percent approve of wowen as ministers. “Clearly,'' said Walker, "it appears that the black church recognizes its responsibilities and we laud their efforts to provide the type of economic supports necessary tn these distressing times."
