Merriweather, conductor About This Virtual Concert By Barbara Pickhardt The Fauré Requiem Reimagined for a Pandemic This virtual performance of the Fauré Requiem grew out of the need to prepare a concert while maintaining social distancing. We would surely have preferred to blend our voices as we always have, in a live performance. But the pandemic opened the door to a new and different opportunity. As we saw the coronavirus wreak havoc around the world, it seemed natural to reach out to our friends in other locales and include them in this program. In our reimagined version of the Fauré Requiem, Ars Choralis is joined, from Belgium, by the Brussels Choral Society, the Magna Graecia Flute Choir of Calabria, Italy, the Dessoff Choirs from New York City, and, from New York, instrumentalists from the Albany area, New York City and the Hudson Valley.

THE INTERNATIONAL IMPLICATIONS OF THE Los ANGELES RIOTS HENRY J. RICHARDSON, III* I. INTRODUCTION By now much has been written, preached, propagandized, analyzed and moralized about the Los Angeles riots. We need not rehearse here either the facts of the trial and acquittal of the police officers who beat Rodney King, the subsequent fire and destruction or the resulting fed- eral and state trials of the officers and riot participants. This Article will discuss the international reactions to the acquittals and the riot while exploring several crucial issues with implications for United States pol- icy, international law and Afro-America in the world community. The Article will also explore comparative claims regarding causation for the riots and the responses of the Vatican and the southern tier of the world community to these claims. Some initial consideration will be given to recent United States. policy trends in order to place the international community's response to Los Angeles in context.

With Chief Daryl F. Gates copiloting, the Special Weapons and Tactics Team (swat) used a fourteen-foot battering ram attached to an “ar- mored vehicle” to break into a house in Pacoima. After tearing a “gaping hole” in one of the outside walls of the house, police found two women and three children inside, eating ice cream. swat uncovered negligible quantities of illicit drugs, and the district attorney http://jah.oxfordjournals.org/ subsequently declined to prosecute. In the days following the raid, black clergy and the San Fernando Valley chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (naacp) organized a protest rally in a local church. “We don’t need new weapons to be tried out on us,” Rev. Jefrey Joseph exclaimed. “Of all the methods that there are to ar- rest a person, they used a brand new toy.” Not all members of the African American com- munity agreed, however. City councilman David Cunningham, who represented South Los Angeles, praised Gates’s actions. “Go right ahead, Chief.
