Drawing a dozen or more dolls from a large bag, Marlene Cummins invited a group of children, aged two to 17, to gather around her.

She pointed out different features-racial and physical-in each doll. She then explained how individuals in their very differences enrich the lives of those they touch.

The occasion was LHRAA 's first retreat for transracial families, held in late May at St. Benedict Center in Madison, Wisconsin. The weekend gave the 33 participants-from Indiana. Illinois, and Wisconsin a chance to share their experiences, their problems, their wisdom.

Identification Of Prime Residential Land In Rural Nebraska, Edward W. Hauswald, Center For Public Affairs Research (Cpar)

Publications

The achievement of an optimal allocation of rural lands between agricultural and nonagricultural uses requires attention to the suitability of the land for both uses. A complete study of land use would include a cataloguing and classification of those factors or conditions that make rural land suitable for agricultural and nonagricultural uses, with special attention to differentiation between the two, and an identification and classification of the rural areas suitable for rural residential development.

The principal objective of this study is to develop an index or classification scheme of those factors and conditions that determine the suitability of rural land …

The Economic Impact Of Non-Profit Arts Organizations In Nebraska, 1976-1977, Murray Frost, Garneth O. Peterson

Publications

What are the arts worth to Nebraska? Until recently no information has been available to answer that question. The arts provide an important cultural contribution, but they also support the economy by employing people, renting buildings, and purchasing supplies and services. The intangible attributes of artistic endeavors are commonly recognized. Economic contributions, however, have received little attention.

For more than three decades, Namibia (formerly Southwest Africa) has waited for independence from South Africa. Again and again, the United Nations called for free elections and full independence.

In April of this year, South Africa finally seemed ready to end its racist, colonial domination of Namibia. In August, an international team of 50 persons traveled to South Namibia. Following their report to the U.N."s Security Council, free elections were to follow-including freedom fighters such as SWAPO (Southwest People's Organization).

The Effectiveness Of A Family Service Center As Evaluated By The Clients Served, Sue T. Burnett

Graduate Theses

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a small family counseling center as evaluated by the clients themselves. A questionnaire, designed and used by the National Family Service Association of America in 1970, was utilized as the measure for evaluation. A total of 46 clients comprised the sample group representing 25% of the population receiving questionnaires. Descriptive case data were collected and analyzed on the total population and compared to the sample. Results showed a marked deficiency in the number of minority and low-income groups both in requesting services and responding to the questionnaire. Agency services …

[Review Of] Orlando Romero, Nambe--Year One, Vernon E. Lattin

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

In the last few years the New Mexican Chicano narrative has taken a significant place within Chicano fiction. Writers like Anaya, Candelaria, and Ulibarri have revealed the uniqueness of being Chicano in New Mexico, often writing about the people who have maintained their century-old ties with past customs and ways of life. Orlando Romero’s novel, Nambe--Year One, adds a new and interesting voice to this growing body of literature.

Guest Editorial, Robert Yoshioka

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Let me begin this editorial by formally thanking Dr. Charles Irby, Past President of the NAIES, for his exemplary leadership over the past two years. The membership in general, and the Executive Council in particular, are indebted to Chuck for his commitment and hard work. The Association has grown strong as a result of Chuck's efforts. Our thanks to you, Chuck! We will continue to pursue the ideal of unity through diversity, in its many ramifications, during the next two years.

[Review Of] Barbara Bryant Solomon, Black Empowerment: Social Work In Oppressed Communities, Emma Turner Lucas

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

At long last an issue of great importance to the Black communit [community] in the social work arena has been addressed. The commencement of social service programs in the l960's brought about an even greate [greater] need for a deeper understanding of the effects of social ills on minorities, especially Blacks. While some individuals had good intentions of bringing about this understanding, they lacked the necessary familiarity with the Black community and its conditions. Black Empowerment addresses itself to this concern by describing the operational mobility of the Black community within a larger society.

[Review Of] Virginia Vans-Mclaughlin, Family And Community, Italian Immigrants In Buffalo, 1880-1930, Frank J. Cavaioli

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Virginia Yans-McLaughlin has made a major contribution to the study of ethnic immigration history, in general, and to the existing knowledge of the Italian Americans, in particular. In Family and Community, Italian Immigrants in Buffalo, 1880—1930, she explores the relationship between the social and economic roots of the contadini from the Italian mezzogiorno and their life in urban industrial America.
