Desmangles, a native of Haiti, has done more than 15 years of field re­ search on vodun. He says "The Serpent and the Rainbow" presents an incorrect portrait of the vodun religion and helps perpetuate the stereotype ofblacks and Haitians as wild and animalistic. "In the late 19th century, there were a number ofbooks published that de­ scribed voodoo as pretty close to sav­ agery, with human sacrifices and cruelty to animals," says Desmangles. During the U.S. Marine occupation of Haiti from 1915 to 1930, another flurry of books appeared, he says; and they, too, painted a portrait of a savage, primitive, and exotic people. "The amount of material decreased until this movie came out," says Des­ mangles. "It has taken us back to the 19th century." S~ENT GOVERNMENT OFFICERS.

Once she completed the requirements and her American studies thesis, on the town of North Grosvenordale, Conn., she returned to the project. It was then a matter of putting it all together, refin­ ing what she had and working on the printing, the documentation and background information. She also had to decide how the project was to be organized. Her adviser, Visiting Assistant Professor of Fine Arts John Boyer, suggested that she make the quality of the pho­ tographs the determining factor. Culling through her many photographs for the best ones, she thought about categories into which they fell. "The first one was water power/' she says, "because that is the whole reason for the building of the mills. And, I had a lot of photos of the looms along the water, because it's a picturesque and romantic scene. "Then, the tower. The towers were important be­ cause they had the bells, and the bells would call people to work in the days before clocks. The towers were symbols of authority, and in some ways the early mill structures were linked to meeting houses or churches. There were social pressures that led them to be built that way.

"But, the mills were where most people in this country began, as immigrants. There weren't any jobs, other than being servants, and most people didn't want to give up their freedom to do that. And the wages were much better, working in the mills. A lot of people worked all their lives and didn't really get anywhere. They struggled and made themselves a life, and it wasn't easy. "But, I don't think it was all negative. There was a sense of community. In a lot of these towns, especially where the mills were family:..owned, the housing that was provided by the company was above average, even model housing. Most of the people who began this way did go on, their children did become educated 15 and they were able to buy a house. It was a starting - point in American society." Befitting the period, all of Albert's photography in the project was executed in black and white. "I really respect black and white photography," she says. "I've done a lot of study of photographers, particularly the documentary photographers of the 1930s, like Walker Evans, whom I really respect and am inspired by.

BY RALPH w. ALLEN '64

hen I left the civil rights movement in the sum­ W mer of 1964, I felt as if I were betraying half my life, perhaps the better half. The noble poor of Southwest Georgia, cohorts in SNCC, the woman I'd wanted to marry, my hopes for racial equality, much of my belief in the freedom and goodness ofhuman na­ ture - all these drained away. One night in the desert of guilt that remained, I dreamt I saw a black man lynched and stood by watching. A year later I was learning to bury that sort of pain in irony. I married a white wife and took a teaching job in a predominantly white school. Hence, it was with considerable apprehension that I waded into Trinity's retrospective conference on SNCC. Would my old friends recognize their betrayer? All those heady ideals we'd lived by, what would they look like now? Could this whiteness that I have become still croak a freedom song?

I contracted to drive a family car to Camden, South Carolina (I was provided with AAA maps and a generous allowance, rather like Lenin being delivered to Petrograd by the Germans in 1917). I deposited the car and caught a bus to Atlanta, where I awoke a SNCC staffer with a 2:00 a.m. phone call.

Lamb brochettes and stuffed grape leaves were on the menu at a Middle Eastern­ style banquet ... Instances like these made up Ta'ziyeh) a conference and arts festival designed for both scholars and the gen­ eral public that was held at Trinity this spring. For five days, in-depth attention was focused on the ancient and 30 often misunderstood Middle Eastern culture of Iran - the disciplines ofliterature, drama,.religion, political science and art history. ''It satisfied my dream model for education," said C. Riggio, a Trinity professor ofEnglish who was the project's director. "I realized, as I watched it happen throughout the weekend, that I was looking at all different kinds of people sharing in an educational effort. There was a tremendous good will on the part of the participants to make it succeed. It really was a community wide event." Scholarly and general conferences (which ran con­ currently) focused on an exploration of differences between two opposing sects oflslam, Shi'ism and Sunnism. "Americans are relatively untutored in the distinctions within Islam, especially the schism between Shi'ism and Sunnism," Riggio said. "Understanding Shi'ism in the broader framework oflslam can help explain the war between Iraq and Iran, the riots in Mecca and many of the developments in the Lebanese conflict." Conference topics included political and religious is­ sues in Shi'ism and Sunnism, women in contemporary Iran, drama and culture in Iran, and Western percep­ tions of Iran. Arts events included dramatic and musical ARTWORK from a Ta'ziyeh festival booklet: An Iranian paint­ ing circa 1840 depicts the standard bearers in a Moharram performances, an exhibition of cultural artifacts, films procession. (James L. Merrick Album, courtesy of Jon and a slide show. Thompson, London, England) The conference portion attracted 300 people: stu- dents, scholars, teachers and private citizens. One par­ ticipant called it a "grand triumph" and another said "somehow it should be reproduced throughout the United States- all sectors of American society would greatly benefit from such exposure." "Without any doubt this was one of the very best, if not the best conference, that I have attended in the past 16 years of teaching and research," wrote Farhad Ka­ zemi, chairman ofNew York University's department of politics, in a letter to Riggio after the event. "The scholarly level and range of presentations, the cultural events, and the organizational aspects were all extraor­ dinary. It is truly remarkable that you were able to organize this potentially controversial conference and keep it wholly and completely within scholarly and academic bounds." Nine hundred people attended six performances of Moses and the Wandering Dervish, the first production of KOREAN-DANCE baritone Du-Yee Chang plays the dervish traditional Persian passion drama in the United States in a production of Moses and the Wandering Dervish, performed and the first English production anywhere. Moses April 28-May 1 at Austin Arts Center. Spencer Sloan photo is based on the Persian tradition known as ta'ziyeh, spectacular musical dramas which form part of the annual Shi'ite ritual of mourning during the festival of Muharramn. Moses was directed by Mohammad B. Ghaffari, an Iranian director/actor living in exile in this country who was a visiting lecturer at Trinity in 1987- 88. In the past, Ghaffari had directed ta'ziyeh plays at the Shiraz Festival of Arts and in Tehran, Iran, where he was affiliated with the Center for Traditional Perfor­ mances. "Although the roots of the play (at Trinity) are nourished by its own culture, it is different from the original, a new experience, a work worth doing, but not the dead imitation of the once lively shabih, (Sufi play)," Ghaffari explained. Originally planned for late night performances by torchlight in Funston Courtyard, bad weather forced the production indoors to Austin Arts Center's Good­ win Theatre where audiences sat crosslegged on the bare stage, watching the meeting between Moses and a shepherd. Moses was played by Bruce Butler, an American, and the dervish (a Moslem dedicated to poverty and chastity whose whirling is a religious act) was portrayed by Korean-dance baritone Du-Y ee Chang. Silent tableaux depicting visions ofheaven and hell were played by Hartford elementary school chil­ dren and Trinity undergraduates. A trio of musicians used wind, string and percussion instruments in a score composed by Steve Gorn. Two evening concerts in Hamlin Hall that featured the oldest forms of instruments in the traditional Per­ sian ensemble were met with packed houses and stand­ ing ovations. Dariush Dolat-shahi performed on the setar, a four-stringed, pear-shaped instrument made of mulberry wood. The second concert, Traditional Music cif Iran: The Art cif Improvisation, featured Mohammed ter for Near Eastern Studies at New York University.

Numerous ta'ziyeh objects and artifacts, shown col­ lectively for the first time, were displayed in Widener Gallery ..The exhibition was divided into three types of Persian cultural performances; processions, narratives and plays. Among the artifacts, many from private col­ lections, were tapestries, shawls, a banner, tile paint­ ings, a helmet and shield, bronze pigeons used on standards in processions, chains, decorated padlocks and numerous photographs. Samuel R. Peterson of Seymour, CT was the curator. So effective was a slide show accompanying the ex­ hibition that several schools have requested copies of it for eductional use. The only American copy of Le Lion de Dieu, a film obtained from France specifically for Ta'ziyeh and originally scheduled for only two show­ ings, wound up being shown repeatedly throughout the festival.

When Lillian Armstrong Dodd gave a pew end for the Trinity College Chapel, the central theme of the carving was a mother's love for her children. Carved on the armpiece is a pelican poised over her hungry brood. The image is one of devotion and sacri­ fice; it was once thought that pelicans poured out their own blood to nourish their young. Trinity, too, sustains its 'young' - its students and alumni ­ with its life blood, the vital gift of knowledge. Each of us, in our way, passes this cherished gift aliong, to our friends and to our families. This commitment to nurturing orginates deep within us. Some­ times it may appear to be at odds with our better interests. Com­ miring ourselves to the support of our alma mater can involve the same pure sacrifice. The impulse to be generous and sustain the College is natural, as it is to provide for ourselves and our fami­ lies. The two need not be in conflict. The planned giving program provides alternatives for those with many mouths to feed. You needn't sacrifice the security of annual income in order to support the College with a most important gift. Planned gifts offer the opportunity to be generous with the College and with yourself and your family. With a planned gift, the benefit of continuing lifetime income from contributed assets is enhanced by the tax advantages associ­ ated with a charitable gift. These include an immediate tax saving charitable deduction and shelter from capital gains tax on appreci­ ated assets contributed for reinvestment through one of our seven life income plans. If you don't want your alma mater to starve, but are concerned with the number of mouths you must feed and the fish available from your private sea to feed them, please take the time to fill out the return card opposite and send it to: Tom Miller Director ofPlanned Giving Trinity College 300 Summit Street Hartford, Connecticut 06106 Telephone: (203) 527-3151, ext. 235 Your request will be observed with strict confidence, and you are never under any obligation.
