The Vanguard (Vol. 36, No. 6), Nov-Dec 1989, Lutheran Human Relations Association Of America

The Vanguard

When an ecumenical gathering of 30 clergy arid lay persons circled Jorge, a Guatemalan refugee, on Sept 15, 1983, in front of the altar at Cross Church, Milwaukee, and an ecumenical congregation of 250 stood in solidarity with them to prayerfully inaugurate sanctuary at Cross Church, we at Cross Church knew we had done the right thing. We were convinced that the Spirit had been leading. We felt confident that our action was part of the coming of Christ's Kingdom of justice and peace.

AMERICA'S LARGEST RELIGION IS more often blamed for creating our environmental problems than credited with helping to solve them. Indeed, ever since historian Lynn White, Jr., published "The Historical Roots of Our Ecological Crisis" (Science magazine in 1967), the anti-earth nature of Christianity has become standard doctrine in environmental circles. (Mother Earth News, Nov/Dec issue, repeated this truism in their "Open Road" column.)

The quote above from the first chapter of Genesis forms the backbone of White's-and others'-arguments that Christianity is an anti-ecological religion. And certainly, the notion of subduing the earth and taking dominion over its creatures does sound …


Harald P. Nielsen Saga, Ivan E. Nielsen Jan 1989

Harald P. Nielsen Saga, Ivan E. Nielsen

The Bridge

When I was asked to do a history on Harald P. Nielsen in observance of the 100th anniversary of his birth, I envisioned a relatively short sketch. It developed into much more than that. In this paper I have documented, quoted and plagiarized. I hope I have conveyed facts as accurately as possible. I am especially grateful to the following for their contributions: Vagn Duus, Inga Kroman-Kelly, Ove Nielsen, Viggo Nielsen, and Emerald Swenson.

[Review Of] Marina E. Espina. Filipinos In Louisiana, William Oandasan Jan 1989

[Review Of] Marina E. Espina. Filipinos In Louisiana, William Oandasan

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

Marina E. Espina's Filipinos in Louisiana is her long awaited, first collection; it is also an announcement of her book on eighteenth-century Filipino settlement in Louisiana and the United States, Manilamen in the New World. The chapters of Filipinos in Louisiana are Espina's articles in chronological order covering two decades of research, all of which were published between 1976 and 1981 in Philippine News, New Orleans Ethnic Cultures and Perspectives on Ethnicity in New Orleans. Filipinos in Louisiana opens a little-known compartment in the history of the Filipino-American community. Espina, as a professional librarian, has had access to archival resources …


[Review Of] James S. Frideres, Ed. Multiculturalism And Intergroup Relations, Hartwig Isernhagen Jan 1989

[Review Of] James S. Frideres, Ed. Multiculturalism And Intergroup Relations, Hartwig Isernhagen

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

A volume of the policy and concept of multiculturalism is particularly welcome at a moment when the issue of minority vs. majority rights is once again flaring up in academics and politics. Canada is at the center of this discussion; but comparisons with the US (and Israel) are frequently made, and the US-American situation is explored at length in two essays by Rose. Also, the editor's introduction, though dealing explicitly only with Canada, raises basic issues of the ambivalent view of ethnic difference in liberal thought that transcend national boundaries.

[Review Of] Eduardo Galeano. Memory Of Fire: Genesis, Kathleen Danker Jan 1989

[Review Of] Eduardo Galeano. Memory Of Fire: Genesis, Kathleen Danker

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

The first volume of a trilogy by the Uruguayan writer Eduardo Galeano, Memory of Fire: Genesis has been called remarkable, fascinating, vivid, passionate, angry, celebratory, and triumphant. It could also be called a history of Latin America to 1700, though that gives little sense of its style or scope. In his introduction, the author describes himself as "not a historian," but as "a writer who would like to contribute to the kidnapped memory of all America, but above all of Latin America, that despised and beloved land." To do this he has created a great mosaic of stories, most of …


[Review Of] Gary Soto. Lesser Evils: Ten Quartets, Carl R. Shirley Jan 1989

[Review Of] Gary Soto. Lesser Evils: Ten Quartets, Carl R. Shirley

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

This volume continues in the same vein as Small Faces, but here the poetic voice is more mature, more reflective. There are forty autobiographical essays treating many of the subjects of Faces: Soto’s wife and daughter, his pets (both present and past), friendships, recollections of his childhood and teen years, sex, and the details of his everyday life. There are also two movie reviews and an account of the writing of a review of a bad novel. The essays are grouped in fours, but they are not presented chronologically, and thus can be read in any order. Each of the …


[Review Of] Vi Hilbert, Tr. And Ed. Haboo: Native American Stories From Puget Sound, James Ruppert Jan 1989

[Review Of] Vi Hilbert, Tr. And Ed. Haboo: Native American Stories From Puget Sound, James Ruppert

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

Vi Hilbert, a Skagit Indian of the Northern Lushootseed of Western Washington, has collected and edited thirty-three fine examples of Salish oral literature. As an instructor in Lushootseed Salish language and literature at the University of Washington, she has had excellent opportunities to collect material and work out a presentational form in English. This volume collects stories from the Myth Age with special emphasis on Raven, Mink and Coyote stories. These stories, largely "light and humorous," explore the actions of beings with human and animal characteristics who existed before the world was transformed into the world we see today. Hilbert …


Miscegenation And Acculturation In The Narragansett Country Of Rhode Island, 1710-1790, Rhett S. Jones Jan 1989

Miscegenation And Acculturation In The Narragansett Country Of Rhode Island, 1710-1790, Rhett S. Jones

Trotter Review

The histories of most New England states view blacks as a strange, foreign people enslaved in southern states, whom New Englanders rescued first by forming colonization and abolitionist societies and later by fighting a Civil War to free them. The existence of a black population in New England as early as the seventeenth century has been pretty much ignored. Indeed Anderson and Marten, of the Parting Ways Museum of Afro-American Ethnohistory, touched off a furor with their discovery that Abraham Pearse, one of the early residents of Plymouth Colony, was black.

The long neglect of New England’s black history has …


The Development And Failure Of Historic Agricultural Communities Of Utah: A Case Study Of Johns Valley, Utah, Wayne R. Shelley Jan 1989

The Development And Failure Of Historic Agricultural Communities Of Utah: A Case Study Of Johns Valley, Utah, Wayne R. Shelley

Theses and Dissertations

Many agricultural communities have developed in Utah since the first settlement, but many no longer exist today. Some of these early communities experienced a "boom and bust," while others struggled for several years and were eventually abandoned. Johns Valley is a good example of these historic communities, as it experienced rapid growth and times of success and prosperity, yet it struggled and was eventually abandoned.
The situation in Johns Valley, from its early settlement to its demise, demonstrates the hope of the people who settled there and their efforts to make Johns Valley a productive and successful area. History also …


[Review Of] Rene Maran. Batouala, Angelo Costanzo Jan 1989

[Review Of] Rene Maran. Batouala, Angelo Costanzo

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

This book is a long-neglected product of the 1920s negritude movement, in which a new kind of primi ti vis tic in terest concerning the lives of black men and women in the African Diaspora took hold in the literary words of Europe and America. Batouala was written in French by Rene Maran, an Afro-Caribbean writer living in Paris in the 1920s, who had worked for several years in what was then known as French Equatorial Africa. This edition is a reprint of a 1972 English translation that adheres to the lyrical, sensuous style of Maran's prose and that follows …

The Vanguard

Armies of both liberation and occupation have incited fear throughout history in the lands through which they marched or in which they were posted. Since World War II, an increasingly militarized world has continued to suffer under the power of this military presence.

Strong cries of protest are now not only being raised, but are also finally being heard. Not surprisingly, they are women's voices. Women worldwide, struggling for their own human rights, are also expressing the rage and horror of their people who witness the ravishment of their culture, their land, and their lives.


American Medical And Intellectual Reaction To African Health Issues, 1850-1960: From Racialism To Cross-Cultural Medicine, David Mcbride Jan 1989

American Medical And Intellectual Reaction To African Health Issues, 1850-1960: From Racialism To Cross-Cultural Medicine, David Mcbride

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

During recent decades, social scientists, particularly anthropologists, sociologists and medical historians, have looked increasingly at how social and cultural factors inform a society's medical community and vice-versa. As Roger Cooter recently stated, "... medicine is a social phenomenon capable of being properly studied only when treated as a part of its social, political, economic and cultural totality."[1] In America, a steady flow of medical sociologists -- most notably Henry E. Sigerist in the 1940s, Talcott Parsons in the 1950s, David Mechanic in the 1960s and 1970s, and Vern and Bonnie Bullough in the 1980s -- contributed numerous empirical studies that …

Functional Priorities Within Marriage: Moral Values, Spouse, Children, And Occupation, John Paul Splinter Jan 1989

Functional Priorities Within Marriage: Moral Values, Spouse, Children, And Occupation, John Paul Splinter

Theses

There are many components involved in creating healthy marriages. This search examined one of these components: Establishing functional priorities within marriage. Therefore, this research was a study of the priorities in marriage, priorities which will provide moral direction, a certain amount of structure, and a balanced approach to handling activities and relationships.

These priorities were, in order of importance: (a) Moral or spiritual values; (b) the dyadic (husband-wife) relationship; (c) the triadic (husband-wife/child) relationship; and (d) occupation. It was the thesis of this study that these priorities offered most to a marriage unit when maintained in the order prescribed here. …

Saints In The Secular City: A History Of The Los Angeles Stake, Chad M. Orton Jan 1989

Saints In The Secular City: A History Of The Los Angeles Stake, Chad M. Orton

Theses and Dissertations

Beginning in 1847 and continuing to the turn of the century, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) were encouraged to gather to Utah, where they formed communities seperated from the evils of the world around them. While Mormonism continues to be closely associated with Utah, in 1989 it is a world-wide church with nearly seven million members, most residing outside of Utah, and many of these in major urban areas. Nevertheless, few studies have been made of how the Church has developed outside of Utah.

When the Los Angeles Stake was organized in 1923, it …
