This is an interview with Ambassador Kenton W. Keith. This is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I’m Charles Stuart Kennedy. I wonder if you could tell me when and where you were born. KEITH: I was born November 12, 1939 in Kansas City, Missouri. 4 Q: Tell me a bit about your family. KEITH: My parents were both musicians at a certain point. My father was a jazz in 1969 musician and my parents met when he was playing saxophone in a jazz orchestra and my mother was a singer. He remained a musician all his life. My mother changed professions along the way and became interested in housing issues, ended up working first for the state of Missouri and then for the city of Kansas City in various capacities and housing authorities. She is now retired in Phoenix, Arizona. My father passed away in 1969, Q: Could you tell me a little bit about where you were educated and grew up? KEITH: I grew up in Kansas City and was educated in local schools, including Lincoln High School, which at the time was the college preparatory high school for black students in Kansas City. There were a couple of other institutions which were more or less vocational schools. That was before schools were integrated in Kansas City. Q: Kansas City was pretty much a city of the old south? KEITH: It was a city of the border south. Certain aspects of Kansas City historically were quite close to aspects of southern culture, including racial segregation. But I think it would be inaccurate to call Kansas City a pure southern city in the same sense as Jackson, Mississippi would be, for example. Q: What about in elementary and high school – what subjects interested you the most? KEITH: Without question the subjects that interested me most were things that had to do with literature, reading, civics, government. I did pretty well in math and science courses, too. But that was a lot more work and drudgery. English and literature have had a deep influence in my life. We had a teacher at Lincoln High School named Neil Herriford, a Harvard graduate. He was a man of great learning and sensitivity and he inspired a lot of us. He opened the door to literature. In eleventh grade, we did Macbeth and that, for us inner-city kids, was a revelation. Q: How were the libraries in Kansas City? KEITH: Not bad at all. There wasn’t anything that I ever needed that I couldn’t find. Even after I had gone off to university, when I was back on vacation and working on papers of one kind or another, I found that either Kansas City’s public library or one of its local branches had what I needed. Q: What type of reading were you particularly interested in? KEITH: I was interested in fiction and I was interested in foreign lands. Those were the 1950s and by the time I went off to high school, we had just emerged from the Korean war. This was the McCarthy era,. I remember being glued to the television for the Army 5 McCarthy hearings. So, I did a lot of reading about that. I read a lot of fiction that had some reference to exotic lands or places far away from Kansas City, “Tales of the South Pacific,” for example. Q: This was a generation earlier, but did you read Richard Halliburton? KEITH: Anything that had those themes was of interest to me. And of course we did a lot of movie going in those days. Certain films that left a deep impression (The Snows of Kilimanjaro, King Solomon’s mines, etc.) but the sum total of the films and the books and the articles and the television programs and so on, I seemed to extract from all of that a desire to travel, to work abroad, to be abroad, to have a very wide canvas. I didn’t know much about what I would find once I left home, but I knew that it was going to be a lot more interesting than Kansas City, Missouri. Q: Did this in any way influence where you were looking to get further education? KEITH: Not really. I was certainly interested in going to school as far away from Kansas City as I could. For a combination of reasons, I ended up going quite close to Kansas City. But the University of Kansas, where I did eventually go to school, 30 miles from Kansas City, was a very interesting place in those days. It was a kind of an island of liberalism in a conservative sea composed of wheat and Kansas farmers. I went for the first time to school with white students and had white teachers. But also there were a lot of foreigners. I had friends who were from South Asia, from Europe, from Africa. I got interested right away in international affairs. Those years and the people I met both in the faculty and among my student peers sealed the issue. I really wanted to know more about foreign cultures and governments. I had a very influential professor and counselor named Clifford Ketzel. He encouraged me not just toward the Foreign Service but specifically toward USIA. Q: You were at the University of Kansas from when to when? KEITH: From 1957 to 1961. Q: This was the beginning of the civil rights movement. There was Brown vs. the Board of Education in ’54. Was this having an impact? KEITH: Indeed yes. Q: Were you caught up in this at all? KEITH: I was at one point vice president of an organization called the Group for the Improvement of Human Relations, which was a multiracial civil rights organization on campus. It could hardly be called a radical group, but it was active. Yes, we were out there on the prairie, but what was happening in the rest of the country was very much on our minds. We were mostly the children of the Eisenhower years in which very little activism took place. We were the quiet generation. It was a group of people who were 6 two or three years younger than I who came along and pushed the rest of us in a certain direction. But there were racial issues at the University of Kansas and we got very much involved in them. So, yes, that was a period that was increasingly marked by the civil rights movement. Q: ’60 was the Kennedy campaign, which seemed to touch a core that hadn’t been touched before or since. Did that touch your particular group at the university? KEITH: I had left the university by then.

  • The Spirit Born People Puran Singh
    INTORDUCTION Our life is much influenced by the material attractions and we are least inclined to spiritual progress—the real motive of our life. If one is absorbed in spiritual trance, the worldly attachments vanish away and spiritual pleasures provide solace to the mind and soul. Though the spiritual experiences cannot be described in day-to-day human language, there are some clues showered by the exalted souls for the benefit of humanity. The Guru came to this planet, to bless us with those clues and gave new life to the corpses with His spiritual touch. The present book is an unparalleled account of this resurrection. It provides a spiritual swing to the reader. The author Prof. Puran Singh (1881- 1931 A.D) was not a professional writer or an ordinary scholar. He himself was a mystic par- excellence. The spiritual experiences of course, cannot be shared by any ordinary writer, who has never treaded this path. The present writing is really an expression by an enlightened soul. The reader gets a severe stimulus on his heart and aspires to fly on spiritual heights. The present book was first published in 1928 and it helped many a times to awaken the dead souls. This work has not lost its relevance even today and need to reprint this marvellous work was felt by all quarters. We see the fulfilment of our long-cherished desire in reprinting this book for the benediction of strife-tom humanity. —Publishers PREFACE These are the lecture notes for addresses I proposed to deliver to the Sikh youth of the Punjab.

  • Spirit of the Sikh Part2 V2
    SPIRIT OF THE SIKH PART II VOLUME TWO PURAN SINGH INTRODUCTION Attention has briefly been drawn to the history of the composition of Spirit of the Sikh in the introductory notes to Part I and to Volume One of Part II of this book. Professor Puran Singh both in his English and Punjabi writings maintains a uniform style of expression, whose prominent features are a vehement lyricism and formation of sentences which because of the almost breathless passion which is at their basis, tend often to go out of hand. The reader has to learn to live with this trait in this writer, which with an overwhelming play of imagination and emotion, helps constantly to throw out passage that are sublimely lyrical. This quality of his style, which has long ceased to be the ruling style in English writings, and has mainly characterized the idealists and visionaries like Carlyle, Emerson and Ruskin, is as a matter of fact as much the result of the author’s own characteristic quality of mind as of the strong influence on him of Carlyle, his favourite author. In many places his writing indicates half-conscious echoes of Carlyle. The other great writer favoured by Puran Singh is Walt Whitman, whom he has quoted more than once. The author’s contact with his contemporary writing is again remarkable. He has more than once referred to Adelphi, a literary magazine of the time and to John Middleton Murry. He has also quoted in full Markham’s Man With the Hoe, a contemporary poem of the time, later deservedly famous, and echoing the passionate plea for socialism, then a recent phenomenon.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.
