Peace studies week
begins second year
By Sarah Kitchen
Of (hr Emerald
Peace in a variety of forms is
the theme for the second annual
Peace Week. April 6-11.
“This year we decided to look
at peace. Peace is very widely
defined because it means a lot of
different things. The week will
highlight the different aspects
of peace," said He bra
Liebowitz, ASUO coordinator
of programs.
“1 hope people will see that
peace is not just the absence of
violence, but also the absence of
structural violence,” she
added.
During the days of Peace
Week, various videos, presenta
tions and discussions will be
held, with a different keynote
address each evening.
Adolfo Perez Esquivel of
Argentina, the 1980 Nobel
Peace Prize winner, will speak
tonight at 7:110 in the EMU
Ballroom about “Nonviolence:
A Tool for Social Change.”
In 1974 Perez gave up his
academic career to do human
rights work in Argentina. In
1977, the Argentina military
junta arrested Perez and tor
tured and imprisoned him for
14 months. Even though he was
placed under house arrest after
his release, Perez continued to
be active on behalf of human
rights in Argentina. He worked
with the Mothers of Plaza de
Mayo, who met weekly in
Buenos Aires to protest the
disappearance of their children.
“When he won the Nobel
Peace Prize, the old government
(of Argentina) was still in
power, and they were unhappy
that a person they considered a
dissident was getting interna
tional attention," Liebowitz
said.
Perez also will talk about
topics such as Liberation
Theology, the Latin debt crisis
and conflict in Central America.
A religious perspective on
peace will be introduced by
Thomas Banyacya. a represen
tative of the Hopi Indians. Ilis
address is titled “Peace and
Justice: The Hopi Perspective.”
Banyacya has been involved
with talks between the Dine
(Navajo) and Hopi elders con
cerning II.S. government
relocation efforts. Many Native
Americans are struggling to
keep the land the U.S. govern
