^VOICE APRIL 1. 1977 PRICE 25c VOL. XIX No. 4 ABCD overtop but continued efforts urged The Archbishops Charities Drive has gone over its goal of $2.5 million, "however," Archbishop Coleman F. Carroll said, "because of the inflationary period the nation is going through, it is hoped that efforts will continue to bring the ABCD total higher." Gifts and pledges to the drive to date have brought the total to $2,733,146, Msgr. John O'Dowd, V.F., announced this week, and was confirmed by Archbishop Carroll. "Many parishes have not reported their final results," Miami's Archbishop said. "It is hoped that by the end of next week their work will be completed and at that time final returns will be given. Very likely at that time the total will be $2.9 million and prayerfully, so that we may adequately minister to those in need, the final amount will reach $3 million. We urge all those who have not made a pledge to the ABCD, to do so as soon as possible. "Hopefully, with this figure, we will be able to develop a home for the aged. An increasing number of elderly is moving to South Florida and among them are a high per- centage of Catholics. With this increasing number, it becomes necessary for the Archdiocese to meet their needs. Plans for such a facility for the aged and its location will be developed in ensuing weeks and it is our hope that work can begin soon." "Archbishop McCarthy, the priests and Religious of the diocese join with me at this time to express our sincere gratitude to all those who, through the ABCD, have come to the aid of those less fortunate than themselves." Plans are progressing for a new Archdiocesan Family Life Center, another ABCD project. Terry and Mimi Reilly, who have five children, have been named to head the center.

L ll Colorado’s Largest Weekly N O . 6 15 CENTS PER COPY 24 P A G E S Tensions Must Be Cooled in White Africa WASHINGTON (NC ) — The U.S. Bishops have warned that the country’s future position in Africa hinges on resolving mounting tensions and grievances surrounding “ the white-dominated societies of Rhodesia and South Africa.” } In a statement prompted by charges being brought against Bishop h Donal R. Lamont of Umtali, Rhodesia, the executive committee of the 1 ^ National Conference of Catholic Bishops (NCCB) and the U.S. Catholic Conference (USCC) called for an examination of “ our relationship to the drama being played out in Rhodesia.” Bishop Lamont is charged by the Rhodesian government with four counts involving alleged contacts between Catholic mission personnel and anti-government guerrillas. Originally scheduled for Sept. 20, the bishop’s trial has been postponed until “ late October or early November,” according to information received by the USCC Inter­ national Justice and Peace Office. Text of the NCCB/USCC statement follows: We wish to call the attention of the American press and public as well as the U.S. government and the American business community to the re­ cent statement of Bishop Donal Lamont of Umtali, Rhodesia. Bishop Lamont, an Irish missionary for 30 years in Rhodesia and president of the Bishops’ Justice and Peace Commission, has been a strong and con­ sistent voice for racial, political and economic justice in Rhodesia for. many years. Bishop Lamont has patiently tried, against great odds, to encourage change within the system, using his persuasive powers of reason to call upon the white minority in Rhodesia to recognize the political and moral bankruptcy of existing laws and institutions.

    Race, Identity, and Belonging in Early Zimbabwean Nationalism(S), 1957-1965

    Race, Identity, and Belonging in Early Zimbabwean Nationalism(s), 1957-1965 Joshua Pritchard This thesis interrogates traditional understandings of race within Zimbabwean nationalism. It explores the interactions between socio-cultural identities and belonging in black African nationalist thinking and politics, and focuses on the formative decade between the emergence of mass African nationalist political parties in 1957 and the widespread adoption of an anti- white violent struggle in 1966. It reassesses the place of non-black individuals within African anti-settler movements. Using the chronological narrative provided by the experiences of marginal non-black supporters (including white, Asian, coloured, and Indian individuals), it argues that anti-colonial nationalist organisations during the pre-Liberation War period were heavily influenced by the competing racial theories and politics espoused by their elite leadership. It further argues that the imagined future Zimbabwean nations had a fluid and reflexive positioning of citizens based on racial identities that changed continuously. Finally, this thesis examines the construction of racial identities through the discourse used by black Zimbabweans and non-black migrants and citizens, and the relationships between these groups, to contend that race was an inexorable factor in determining belonging. Drawing upon archival sources created by non-black 'radical' participants and Zimbabwean nationalists, and oral interviews conducted during fieldwork in South Africa and Zimbabwe in 2015, the research is a revisionist approach to existing academic literature on Zimbabwean nationalism: in the words of Terence Ranger, it is not a nationalist history but a history of nationalism. It situates itself within multiple bodies of study, including conceptual nationalist and racial theory, the histories of marginal groups within African nationalist movements, and studies of citizenship and belonging.
  • A Souvenir of the Golden Jubilee of the Irish Carmelites in Zimbabwe

    A Souvenir of the Golden Jubilee of the Irish Carmelites in Zimbabwe

    A SOUVENIR OF THE GOLDEN JUBILEE OF THE IRISH CARMELITES IN ZIMBABWE 1946-1996 1 (COMPILED BY FR MICHAEL HENDER, O.CARM.) INTRODUCTION This Golden Jubilee booklet commemorates the work of Irish Carmelites during the past fifty years in Zimbabwe. The combined years of their missionary labour in Zimbabwe stretches well beyond one thousand years. To describe the work of over 1,000 years in a booklet of less than 30 pages presents many difficulties. The description has to be very sketchy, with many interesting details omitted. Each missionary contributed much and each was in many ways unique. The decision to provide personnel for missionary work in Africa was made by Provincial Carmel O’Shea. Fr. Conleth Fitzgerald became Provincial in 1946, so it was his task to implement it. Both of them were pleasantly surprised by the generous response of the brethren to their request for missionaries. It was over-subscribed. As Fr. Anselm Corbett recalls, when the time came for the Carmelites to assume responsibility for their first Mission, Triashill, their Jesuit predecessors were very gracious in facilitating them. Carmelites in Zimbabwe in the late 1950's: G. Meagher, S. Egan, M. McMahon, C. O'Shea, P. Martin, Monsignor D. Lamont, M. Hill, A. Corbett, J. O'Dwyer, C. Kennedy, S. Dunne (Above). In 1981 (right). The early missionaries, despite many problems, succeeded in creating a team spirit among themselves. That spirit persisted and is still strong today. No doubt the new generation of Zimbabwe-born Carmelites will have that same good brotherly characteristic which results from knowing that they are doing God’s work where ‘the harvest is great’ and that their strength comes from his Holy Spirit.
