"For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body-Jews or Greeks, slaves or free-and all were made to drink of one Spirit. For the body does not consist of one member but of many. If the foot should say, 'Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body, ' that would not make it any less a part of the body. .. .If the whole body were any eye, where would be the hearing?" (1 Corinthians 12.13-15,17).

....ds of Change 46 minutes, color VIdeocassette or 16mm film EcumeDlcaIIy produced In 1984 for NorIII Americall Cllrlstlans

Why do black South African church leaders call apartheid a heresy, and what do they think of U.S. policies toward their white government? "Winds of Change" combines edited interviews and a printed guide in a three-session study program on apartheid and the churches. This is the most theo­ logically oriented of any media title available on south­ ern Africa and can be used by viewers who have no prior knowledge about the situation. Two of South Africa's best known black church leaders-Desmond Tutu, newly elected bishop of Jo­ hannesburg and winner of the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize, and Allan Boesak, campus minister at the University of the Western Cape and president of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches since 1982-describe the apartheid system in the light of Scripture and tackle many of the questions that North Americans find most difficult. The accompanying 50-page reflection/action guide outlines three discussion models to assist viewers in studying and responding to apartheid from a Christian perspective. The guide also includes a transcript, glos­ sary, bibliography and list of action resources as well account is striking for its lack of any bitterness toward as suggestions for discussion leaders who need not the police.

The situation in Namibia. After an orientation from the nar- rator, various interviewees describe the poverty and ter­ ror which black Namibians face under white rule. A journalist, a doctor, social workers and a politician-all paint a dismal picture. Most disturbing are the accounts of torture which some pastors report that their parish­ ioners have experienced. ''The Devil's Circle" is depressing for its por­ trayal of blacks as victims ofa hopeless situation. Those who use this program should plan also to view "Nami­ bians in Exile." It illustrates a positive dimension of con­ structive hope which is so critical to Namibia's future.

Namib....In ExIle: BuDding fOl'the Future 37 minutes. color Videocassette or 16mm film Produced In 1983 for the Holland Committee on Southern Africa

What happens to thousands of Namibians who have fled the violent situation in their country? "Namibians in Exile" was filmed almost entirely inside refugee centers in neighboring Angola, including the Natalia Mavulu center for children. Many North Americans associate refugee camps with depressing and desperate circumstances. However, this film doc­ uments the constructive training offered by the South­ West Africa People's Organization (SWAPO) in prepar­ ing Namibians for the day when they can return home to a free country. "Namibians in Exile" surveys how SWAPO responds in difficult circumstances to the hous­ ing, health, education, food and spiritual needs of its people. Viewers unfamiliar with the internal situation in Namibia, also called South-West Africa, will want to study some basic information before viewing "Namibi­ ans in Exile." "The Devil's Circle" is one of several pro­ grams which can provide an introductory orientation.
