Arab teach-in advocates non-involvement
Asked what the people of the
U.S. could do to help the situation
in the Middle East, Araasha, a
group spokesperson at an Arab
teach-in held Wednesday,
suggested they start thinking
about their own problems rather
than trying to solve those of other
people.
“You should take that million
dollars the U.S. sent Israel to
promote racism and chauvinism,
and use it to start free clinics
here instead.” Amasha said.
But temper flare-ups were
relatively minor at the teach-in
held by Arab students and sup
porters from noon to 3 p.m.
Wednesday.
Teach-in organizers said the
main goal of the teach-in was to
give a clear, unbiased picture of
the Arab people's struggle
against imperialism and the
Zionist movement in the Middle
East, which they feel the
American news media purposely
does not give.
Representatives from Iran,
Africa, and Latin America
started the meeting by pledging
their support and complete
solidarity with the Arab
Liberation Movement.
The format consisted of three
speakers giving a history of
Zionism and imperialism in the
Middle East from 1918 up to the
present time, followed by a
question-and-answer session.
The speakers felt the fighting
taking place in their country
should not be considered dif
ferent from the recent struggles
in Chile or South Africa. They
said all are Third World countries
struggling against systems of
exploitation, racism, oppression
and chauvinism forced on them
by western imperialism.
They spoke of Arabs and Jews
living in harmony together,
working shoulder to shoulder in
one state. Previously in the
discussion, however, they stated
the only way to solve the struggle
was to destroy the war
machinery and ruling class of
Israel. When the subject of the
Promised Land came up,
Amasha stated, “God made
Arabs and Palestinians second
class citizens when he promised
Israel to the Jews. If God wants
to give you a land, let Him bring
you a land!”
Women’s study center established
A Center for the Sociological
Study of Women has been
established at the University.
“The need for such a center is
one consequence of the very
rapid growth of interest in
questions relating to sex roles
and socialization patterns in
contemporary society,” said
Richard Hill, head of the
sociology department, which will
host the new Center.
Joan Acker, associate
professor of sociology, has been
named director.
“Acker has been concerned
and active for a number of years
in developing a center for
research on women," Hill pointed
out. The center is unique in the
State of Higher Education in its
research focus. Both Portland
State and Oregon State univer
sities have women’s studies
programs, but they are basically
curriculum -or iented.
Funds to establish the center
come from University President
Robert Clark’s reserve fund,
which is used to encourage in
struction-related research and
for other instructional needs.
Acker sees the center as a
resource for the entire Univer
sity. Although the focus of in
terest is within sociology, the
center will welcome the par
ticipation of scholars from other
areas, she notes.
Working with Acker will be
Miriam Johnson and Marion
Goldman, new members of the
sociology faculty.
“We will be continuing some
research projects already begun
in this area, as well as beginning
new research,” explains the
director.
The center is a continuation
and expansion of activities in
stituted under a $3,000 grant to
Acker in 1970 which allowed her
to embark upon a study of
reactions of university faculty to
affirmative action. The survey
questionnaire for that study now
is being tested, and different
kinds of approaches are being
designed.
Other research already under
way includes a study, now only in
its preliminary stages, on the
differential participation of
mother and father in sex roles
socialization. In addition, a
proposal has been made to a
private foundation to fund a
research project on the effects of
the women’s movement on
women political party activists.
Six graduate students are
pursuing dissertation research in
this area.
As a result of research carried
out by Acker and others during
the past three years, a small

research library has been
established primarily from
private collections, and now will

The center for the Sociological
Study of Women has been
allocated $5,244 a year for three
years. The funds will be used to

and a student secretary, and pay
for library and data acquisitions,
supplies, and a telephone.

Agency opens for gay growth
Homosexuals are people. They
are people who are attracted to
people of their same sex socially,
emotionally, and erotically. They
are concerned with warmth, love,
and security in their relation
ships, just like any of us. That is
the message of One Step Beyond.
One Step Beyond is a com
munity agency which might be
able to help you, maybe a friend
of yours or a member of your
family. More than an agency,
it is a group of people deeply
concerned with creating a
receptive environment, in
creasing personal growth, and
more livable, less isolated gay
life here in Eugene.
One Step Beyond offers an
alternative aid situation for those
persons questioning sexual
identities, sex roles, lifestyles,
and preferences. They have on
going groups at the center—a
women’s rap group, a men’s
encounter and growth group, and
a young people’s group. They do
on-going, walk-in, and telephone
counseling and have experience
in couple and family counseling
and sex therapy. They are
available for speaking
engagements at area agencies or
classes or for any interested
group. Their advocacy and
referral resources put them in
contact with other community
agencies needing help with gay
clientele, issues and concerns.
The agency has a small library of
books, articles, and newspapers
dealing with gay life-styles and
culture.
If you are interested, call 342
8256 and speak with or leave a
message for Becky, Co-ordinator
of Women’s Activities, or Greg or
Brett, co-directors of One Step
Beyond. Or stop by any Friday
evening at 323 E. 12th Ave. where
they are open from 7-10 p.m.
They are open for suggestions
and willing to help in any way
they can.
