According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, about 300,000 people have abandoned El Salvador in the past year because of civil strife. Displaced persons within the country number perhaps 200,000 . These include peasants who have fled their homes to stay with relatives or in indepen­ dent refugee shelters or who may be roaming the mountains , refugees who have come to the city from rural areas, and governmen t -protected refugees. According to Church World Service, some humanitarian agencies have provided assistance only to this last group, whereas others have chosen "at great risk" to target their aid to the majority of internal refugees who cannot be reached through channels sympathetic to the government. Since June, 1980 CWS has raised $440,461 on behalf of Salvadorean refugees (with UMCOR being a major contributor). Of this amount $123,032 has been transferred to the World Council of Churches to support the work of ASESAH in El Salvador, and another $43,511 has been provided to the WCC for Salvadorean refugees outside their country. CWS is now appealing for $1 million for El Salvadorean refugees both inside the country and in other Central America n nations. South African Invasion. The executive ·committee of the National Counc i l of Churches unanimously adopted a resolution September 11 which condemned South Africa ' s II "military invasion of the People's Republ ic of Angola" and its "continued illegal occupation of Namibia." The committee also said it "condemns " the U.S. government ' s I veto of a United Nations Security Council Resolution on the invasion. "We believe this action implies support of Apartheid and represents a tilt toward South Africa ," it said. The corrmittee again called on the U.S. to recognize the Government of the Peoples Republic of Angola and that "the people of Namibia should be gi ven necessary assistance in preparation for t r ue independence." ... In another action the executive committee sent a letter of greeting and concern to Pope Shenouda III of the Coptic Orthodox Church in Egypt (see editorials), whose official recogni- tion by the Egyptian government was revoked by President Sada t . A five-member committee of bishops was appointed to act as intermediaries between the govern- ment and Pope Shenouda, who has moved to a desert monastery. Korea. Rev. Moon Ik-whan, 63-year-old Korean poet and Korea's senior Old Testament scholar and biblical translator, began a hunger fast in mid August in protest against the continued incarceration of political prisoners in his country, es­ pecially Kim Dae Jung. The Presbyterian scholar, who is also known as Rev . Timothy Moon, was jailed on the night of Chun Doo-hwan's coup on May 17, 1980 and has bee n in solitary confinement since; his sentence was originally 15 years but has been reduced to 10 by presidential decree. Peggy Bi l lings, head of Christian Social Relati ons for the UM Women's Di vision, said she was "deeply distressed" at Per~ Mr. Mo on' s dec ision, "His wi llingness t o risk his health and possibly his life ieS1 is an indication of the hardening of the government's attitude toward political Di vi pri soners. It seems to ref l ect the Chun government's assessment that there will Chur be no pressure from the Reagan administration on human rights. 11 the a u~ is n Deaths . Canon Robert f. ~.

The U.S. Catholic Conference, with headquarters in Washington, loya D.C., has organized a massive letter-writing campaign urging legislators to support suf f, tax credit for tuition paid for private and parochial schools, especially the so­ di vi called Packwood-Moynihan bill. (NWO has editorially opposed the idea, Jan. 1 81 11 in editorials). The U.S. Catholic Conference will enter a "highly visible phase" thre in its campaign to urge parents, teachers and others to write their legislators. the President Reagan has pledged his support for tuition tax credit legislation but we did not include it in his first tax bill. time on t neg a Church Women United?

  • David Mura's Turning Japanese and Japanese-American Narrative Since World War 11
    ,..... Connotations Va!. 6.3 (1996/97) "The country I had thought was my home": David Mura's Turning Japanese and Japanese-American Narrative since World War 11 GORDON o. TAYLOR Unless the stone bursts with telling, unless the seed flowers with speech ... Joy Kogawa, Obasan (1981) The poet David Mura, in Turning Japanese: Memoirs of a Sansei (1991), projects in prose a range of issues bearing on contemporary Japanese- American identity, and on the view from within such a sensibility of contemporary American culture. The book is based on Mura's year-long visit to Japan in the mid 1980s on a V.S./Japan Creative Artist Exchange Fellowship, a sojourn which became, beneath the surface of his grant- related activities, a quest for what he calls a "lost center" of personal history. His childhood in a Jewish neighborhood of Chicago, and his Eurocentrically oriented college years, had hardly been focused on his Japanese-American background, still less on roots traceable all the way to Japan. On one level the book relates the experiences of that year through the retrospective lens of time passed since his return. On another level it looks back at America from Japan, and yet again at Japan from Minnesota (where he now lives) as he writes, sustaining the chronolOgical narrative of the year abroad but tracing cross-currents of self-inquiry flowing across the Pacific in both directions. These swirls, sometimes storms, of bicultural consciousness deepen and complicate, more than they resolve, the many conflicts involved, as they move toward an open ending in which he feels himself neither "Japanese" nor"American," nor even necessarily a "Japanese American" in any simple sense of the term.

Poetry and other creative efforts should be levers, weapons to be used in the people's struggle for understanding, human rights, and decency. "Art for Art's Sake" is a misnomer. The poet can never be neutral. In a hungry world the struggle between oppressor and oppressed is unending. There is the inevitable question: "Which side are you on?" To be content with as they are, to be "neutral," is to take sides with the oppressor who also wants to keep the status quo.
