Coordinator of AIDS
awareness program
is out to save lives
Patricia Oxendine-Hunter is out
to save lives.
As the coordinator of a new
AIDS awareness and prevention
program for OIC, Hunter has her
work cut out for her.
The program, which began sev-
eral weeks ago, targets Rocky
Mount Ts black community. OIC,
Opportunities Industrialization
Center, is in the heart of the city Ts
black community.
Another reason for focusing on
the black community is higher
cases of AIDS, Acquired Immune
Deficiency Syndrome, in the na-
tion among blacks, Hunter said.
The black population consti-
tutes 12 percent of the nation Ts
population, but 25 percent of the
AIDS population in the U.S., she
said. One in four who has AIDS is
black, she said, adding that AIDS
infection may have something to
do with a socio-economic factor.
AIDS is not exclusive to ho-
mosexuals and drug users, she
added. Statistics indicate that by
1991, if the rapid spread of the
disease is not curbed, ~ o ~we are
going to see 67,000 black people
with AIDS, ? T she said.
~ ~Now cases of AIDS are show-
ing up in heterosexual males,
school-age children and in U.S.
senior citizens. No one is exclu-
sive, T she said. ~ ~This is not just a
threat. It is a disease that kills ?
Hunter pointed out that the dis-
ease can remain dormant for as
many as 15 years before it is
detected.
People can carry. the disease
and not even know they are a
carrier. ~All of these facts make
it scary, T T she said.
Hunter said at a recent question
and answer program one of the
participants told about her
brother dying from AIDS. The girl
said she knew of 17 other people
her brother had shared a needle
with, Hunter recalled. All are
dead.
oThe number of contact can
become astronomical, ? T she said.
As people become aware of the
deadly impact of the disease,
Hunter said she anticipates see-
ing some behavior changes.
Keys are understanding and
openness, she said.
~We want people to feel open
about talking about sex, HIV and
AIDS, ? Hunter said. The program
at OIC will attempt to do that, she
added.
OIC is a place where the black
community feels comfortable,
Hunter said. ~ ~We try to break
down that barrier. We show confi-
dence and comfort in talking ab-
out AIDS, ? T she said. ~ ~Many times
it is not an easy topic to discuss. ? T
Hunter said she may not be able
to answer many of the questions

We've Come A Long Way
Friends: How Many Of Us Have Them??
By: Sandra Dupree Boyd
A lot of us have learned the
hard way that God is the only
truthful and trustworthy friend
that you can really count on.
There Ts a saying that you
should be slow in choosing a
friend, and even slower in chang-
ing. You may have learned so far
in life that friends will let you
down, and they will also stop
coming around. Friends are hard
to find, friend like yours and
mine.
About a year ago I thought that
I had some new friends. Friends
that would stand by me and be
supportive of me. Then one day
I realized that the door bell had
stopped ringing and the telephone
had stopped ringing.
These so-called friends were
people that I had not sent for, and
I didn Tt even know that they ex-
isted. They found me. And now I
know that they really only
wanted to get close to me because
there was something going on at
the time that they could probably
benefit from.
My experience got me thinking
back to Jesus and His disciples.
Jesus had a huge crowd behind
Him all the time as long as they
were benefiting and Jesus was
giving out blessings. But when
Jesus needed them, you could
hardly find one.
Well, in a way it kind of hap-
pended to me. I started out with
a small crowd of about 30. Now
there Ts only a few: God, me, my
family, and two others. But know
what? That Ts all it takes.
So I'm glad that the crowd has
dwindled since their intention
were not good to begin with.
Because had their intentions been
good, I would still hear from
them, and they would still be
coming around or calling from
time to time,
But I want these so-called
friends to remember that what
goes around comes around.
You've probably noticed that
when one white person or family
needs help, they all join together
to help this person or family. For
example, think about how all the
whites got together and had bake
sales and everything else you can
think of to help the Ron Chance
Family. Would we as a black
race had taken time out to do this
if the Chance Family had been
black?
Jesus chose no special person
or family to help while He walk-
ed around here on earth. You
don Tt have to be a star to be in
God Ts show. Because God uses
ordinary people. He used or-
dinary people in biblical days and
uses them today. But we as a
black race, we have our picks as
to whom we help. How would you
feel if you asked God for help and
He told you that He wasn Tt going
to help you. That He had chosen
someone else instead? I doubt
very seriously if it would make
you feel good.
We as a black race had better
start thinking about pulling
together while we Tre sitting
across that table eating lunch
with our white fellow co-workers
everyday. Because when you get
up from that table you are still
just as black as you were when
you first sat down. You didn Tt
change one iota to that white man
or white woman. They don Tt love
us; they just put up with us,
hecause one man dared to make
a change when some of us were
still in diapers.
Your so-called friends will tell
you so faithfully what they are
going to do or what they are go-
ing to say until it really comes
down to the main event. Then you
start to get answers such as
~ ~maybe T T, ~ o ~I don Tt know T T,
~check with me later T T, ~ ~we Tll
see T, and finally, ~ ~I don Tt want to
make it hard for myself T.
Then you start to wonder why
did they lead you on. Our so-
called black friends are so en-
vious. They Tre so afraid that
you Tre going to get ahead of
them. But they need to
remember that ENVY shoots at
others and wounds herself in the
process.
I was told a story not too long
ago about a group of girls who
were attending a class together.
Everyone was car pooling

Over the past ten years the
number of middle and upper
turning to
delinquents "even criminal
behavior has risen dramatically.
Children who seem to have every
advantage are ending up in court,
and their parents are often at a
loss to explain how this come
about.
Too often parents neglect is the
root of the trouble. The same
parents who coach the Little
League teams, preside at the
PTA may be neglecting some of
their children Ts needs, without
even being aware of it. Neglect
can take the many form, from
overindulgence to lack of
communication.
Good parenting is not a natural
process but a learned process.
Good parents know how to instill
the value of delayed gratification,
provide structure, get to know

child is the home of the bi cal
parent. Good people can be bad
parents. Being a good parent re-
quires as much time, talent,
" , and thought as a full-time
job.
When we have problems at
work, we call everyone together,
sit down around a table, and
discuss the issue. We do not do
this with our families. The pro-
blem simply fester. Being a
parent requires as much active
management, thought, and con-
sideration as his job. We give our
job more time and thought than
our families. What were you like
when you were seventeen? If a
mother is tired and stressed
(after a career job), the entire
family is affected. Many of us are
muddling along wondering why
our house doesn Tt feel like a
home. As parents, we tell our
children how we want them to
behave by what we say and don Tt
say. Bill and Pam had a two-
career marriage with no energy
left over for parenting. April
described her mother coming
home from school tired and
angry. Her father would come in,
pick up the paper, and wait for
April to call him to dinner. No one
talked and when the kids tried to
tell their concerns the parents
said they were tired. When April
became pregnant at 13 years old,
Pam and Bill were totally un-
prepared to deal with it. Set aside
time for families to talk, family
talk. Parents must interact with
school. Know that your family is
important enough before they Tve
flexible and imaginative whe
solving family problems as y
are when solving problems on
job.
Our problems of behavior are
established while we Tre young.
The child and the problem came "
from us. We rob our children of |
\a neéded relationship and send
them off into a competitive, com-
plicated world believing that love |
is wrapped in packages or car- |
ried in a billfold. Assume your |
role as parents, not nannies, baby "
sitters. By giving you child
everything she wants, when she
wants it, you deskill your
daughter and son.
Our care of the child from birth
to six provides the emotional
foundation that will affect his
behavior throughout his life. If we
turn up our noses and call his
body waste dirty while we are
potty training, the chances are
pretty good the chilld will feel he
is dirty.
It is during this period that
children can learn to appreciate
books and perceive learning as
an adventure. They do not need
to be pushed into reading, or
counting, but if we read to them
with enthusiasm, and talk to
them with a healthy respect for
their intellect, they will live up to
their intellectual capacity.
Teach affection by being affec-
tionate with our spouses, the
child Ts siblings, and the child. Af-

taught by exemplary examples,
but it is an essential part of the
learning process, Anger and hate
can be taught just as effectively
if we are not careful. °
The day they walk into
kindergarten class they will know
how to hold grudges, hate and
fear, if that was what they were
exposed to at home. Children
learn about sex and their bodies
from us. If we turn our noses up
and look disgusted at the question
about the penis or vagina, they
understand immediately how we
feel. By then whatever words we
choose are virtually meaningless.
They will ask questions and be
curious. For the better part of
two years we cover their bodies
with diapers, and when finally
they have a chance to explore and
discover these strange organs,
they will be fascinated and
excited.
Ask yourself "What do I want
my children.to know before they
leave home? Educational needs
and physical/medical/dental
needs, surely. Children must be
taught through social interaction
that they are a part of a larger
community is their responsibili-
ty. They learn how to be sociable
by watching their parents
socialize. Our children are im-
itators. The chances are good
that they will associate with the
same type of people we associate
with. Become an active part of
the community in which you live.
Children learn from what they
see, not what they hear. If they
see a parent who can only relax
with a drink in his or her hand,
what does it say? Parents need to
analyze their own consumption
habits. As a society, we need to
think about the example we set,
and the images we create.
Parents need to assume the
responsibility of being their

that can be explained, bring it to

Parents who provide a nurtur-
ing, structured environment and
communicate with their T child
have the best chance of dealing
with substance abuse. Husbands
and wives who do not love each
other produce disturbed kids.
When affection, respect and love
are present in a marriage, the
children are secure and happy
with each other. Children whe
feel secure seldom commit
crimes or need to abuse others to
meet their needs. We all need a
time and place to vent our wrath,
but the best place is not in front
of the kids. There Ts a big dif-
ference between an argument
and a fight. Your compatibility is
their security.

these girls got lucky and was of-
fered a very good job. She ac-
cepted the job and was even able
to buy herself a new car. But .
after this happened, she forgot all
about the other girls and stopped

because she couldn Tt get to work

A salute to the
Brotherhood Club
(Continued from page 1
Christmas and Thanksgiving, the
brotherhood is mostly known for
providing a place for people to en-
joy each other. Although it is not
just a night club, people do come
out to mingle, talk and even
dance..The club has ABC permits
which is a clear sign of its growth
as a legal and responsible com-
munity organization. Members
and guests may now enjoy their
favorite beverage without fear of
problems with law enforcement
authorities.
Now is a perfect time for Afro-
Americans to support the
brotherhood social club and com-
munity building. For years com-
plaints have been heard about
there not being any place to go.
This club is filling that need. Peo-
ple who don Tt feel at home in the
RIO T or other establishments that
are predominately white oriented
can look to the brotherhood club
as a place of their own. It

was the beginning of a movement
that won't stop acco to
§.C.L.C. leaders. Small in
number but large on committ-
ment they marched from
Albemarle Avenue, down Flem-
ing, to 14th and 5th street to the
Greenville Town Common.
There the speakers were large
in number with basically the
same message.
One ex-junkie/alcoholic ap.
proached the podium and: his
speech stirred the crowd
dramatically. In summing up his
speech, he told the crowd you
can Tt talk about a junkie unless
you Tve been a junkie, and the
answer is not jail because you
can buy as much dope in jail,
(even from the guards) a8 out of
jail. This man Ts last words were,
the best help for a junkie is to
show that junkie love. ;
In my assertion this was all for
naught unless it is followed up.
One big march won Tt make it.
And we must stop looking to jails
as the answer.
As Jim Rouse said in. his
speech, you have to give a young
person a job (a chance to make
legal money) or they will try to
make the illegal money.

By now, you've heard just how dangerous Greenville's annual Halloween
celebration can be. You've heard about the large numbers of students injured
and assaulted last year, about the tremendous property damage -- and you've
thought about the potential threats posed by the outsiders who flock to the

By now, you probably know that a committee composed of students,
business and government leaders reached unanimous agreement and reported
the following:
QO) Reacting to the riots of 1974 and 1975, the City Council halted the Halloween
celebrations from 1976 to 1979. During that period, the downtown bars closed
their doors.
OQ In 1979, the City Council reversed its position and allowed the celebrants to
party in the streets once again.
Q In 1987, the number of Halloween partygoers swelled to more than 20,000
and more streets were closed off for the celebration. Five persons were injured,
seven were arrested and the City spent 800 manhours in employee overtime,
costing taxpayers between $10,000 and $15,000.

OQ) In 1988, although the crowd was much smaller than the year before, with
between 8,000 and 10,000 persons present, the number of arrests jumped to 56
and an unknown number of persons were injured.
QO Small gangs of youths from outside the city assaulted numerous
the 1988 celebration, intentionally striking men and women alike and running
away into the large crowd before police officers could catch them.
ple at
East Carolina students have responded by asking friends to stay at home
this Halloween. Residence halls won't allow nonresidents to spend the night on
campus. Sororities and fraternities are closing their doors to out-of-towners, too.
And everywhere, students are making plans for a safe Halloween without the
use of alcohol. We thank you. The Greenville community is grateful for your support.

COMMUNICATING WITH
YOUR PARENTS |
by Cynthia L. Doctof
This week Ts column is a
message to children in the many
families in our community.
Although this column has: been
primarily an aid and an appeal to
parents, it Ts the children Ts turn
this week.
Have you ever had a pfoblem
that you were afraid to discuss
with your parents? Perhaps this
feeling was based on fear of
punishment, loss of affection, or
loss of respect from your parents.
Some of the roles of childhood
and of being in a family are to
learn to accept disciple, to obey,
and to make the necessary
changes in your behavior.
Therefore the fear of punishment
from your parents is a legitimate
one. It is a parent Ts responsibili-
ty to punish for improper
behavior. Punishment is general-
ly much more severe if parents
learn from outsiders (teacher,
neighbor, police, etc.) things that
you should have trusted them
enough to tell them.
Consider for the moment the
types of punishments that exist
today. Compare these
punishements to those of your
parents. Police or legal punish-
ment may be harsh. School-
teachers and _principals-
punishments, may be imper-
sonal. Such impersonal! discipline
can lower self esteem. Outside
authorities usually are much
more severe and restrictive in
their punishment and discipline
than are parents. Parents disci-
ple and counsel with love and
understanding. Regardless of
your feelings today, as an adult,
you'll look back at some of your
life experiences and give your
parents the praise!

tivity. You also afraid
discuss the issue with your

discuss it, your parents can give
you very effective ways to handle
the situation. More than likely
they have experienced the same
pressures. Their experiences put
them in a far better position to
view situations objectively and

LETTER TO THE EDITOR:
Dear Editor:
I greet you with love, truth,
peace, freedom and justice. This
appeal plea is written from a man
in suffering, angush, and full of
sorrow due to the burdensome
agaony of aloneness, which being
imprisoned creates when ones
family and friends have turned
their backs on them. As, I sit here
in my hot dreary dorm, I think
and pray about life. As I go
through the harsh regulations,
the degradation, anger and
frustration; I constantly try to
find ways and solutions to make
my plight lighter.
For it is to the national interest
of this society, and ourselves to
try and bridge the gap that has
separated the male and female
principle. So, I appeal to your
reasoning. I would like for you to
put my. plight on your bulletin
board. I Tm a man on the path of
raising my consciousness to
stand perpendicular on the
Square of Life; and I need your
help. I seek unconditional friends
and their spiritual natures. My
want and need of them has evolv-
ed from my struggle to free
myself from the frips of exploita-
tion; and negative criticism
about men knowing how to build
strong relationships or friend-
ships with people in general.
Some people get a sense of
themselves in prison, and some

As Salaam Alaikum, Greetings
of Peace from Masjid Al Nur.
oak bear witness that there is no
apes Got and Muhammad is
His
The: part of oShahada ? T
says that Muhammad is a pro-
phet of God. When you accept
Muhammad as God Ts prophet
you also accept all the prophets
that came before him and you ac-
cept that all the prophets taught
the Unity of God. In addition you
also accept the living guidance
Muhammad left for us to follow.
In the life of prophet Muham-
mad you have clear examples on
how to conduct yourselves and
your affairs. Islam encompasses
all aspects of life including
government, private and per-
sonal affairs such as education,
marriage, finance and. dress.
Muhammad shows you that
God Ts words is compatible with
everyday life. As each verse was
revealed, it was immediately ex-
panded in his lifestyle. The state
he established and the laws that
were enforced came from Quran.
By following Quran he proved
that there Ts no poverty, hunger?
prejudice, or ignorance, in a God
fearing state.
Society should strive to live in
accordance to God Ts laws and not
outside of them. As a human be-
ing you prefer your way of doing
things. You may not, like being
told how to live your life. The
Quran teaches that God did not
create anything in vain, nor did
He create for sport and play.
Everything you do on earth will
either bring you closer to God or
take you further away.
Muhammad instructs you to
think about structuring your life
in a way that is pleasing to God.
This doesn Tt mean living in
poverty or denying yourself the
benefits of the world. On the con-
trary, it means building a socie-
ty that considers not just your
physical needs, but also your
spiritual ones. In our society we
have a democracy based on
separation of church and state,
We are free to worship as we
please, but when it comes to cor-
ruption we have no spiritual leg
to stand on. Our laws are not God
conscious, It is difficult to change
unjust laws, or enforce laws that
protect the environment and the
innocent from the greedy.
Sometimes our laws take away
from us something basic and
Godlike, for example, congrega-
tional prayers in our public
schools. So far removed are we
from doing'what is Godlike in our
laws that a question like abortion
becomes a painful ordeal. A god-
fearing government is nothing to
fear, if you have a clear guidance
and a clear: example to follow.
Islam gives you both. The Quran,
which gives you God Ts eternal
guidance, prophet Muham-
mad, who shows you how to
structure your life with it.
You didn Tt have a clear
guidance to follow before Islam.
No prophet before Muhammad

During our journey through this
experience we must become
masters and slaves, murders and
victims, etc...etc,., Only when
one does not learn from ones ex-
perience, have they sinned. To
come away from any experience
igonorant of the lessons to be
learnt is evil, or negative, is life
hindering. Black Studies, then, is
both a particular and general
social science and shares with the
other social sciences similar
focus of inquiry and analysis. It
shares with political science the
concern with the problems of
gaining, maintaining and using
power, especially as it relates to
Blacks, and with economics, the
concern of the relationship of
race and class to economic oppor-
tunities and distributive ine-
qualities. The studying of Black
Studies and other Afrocentric
studies we as a people won Tt be

thought in mind, Black Studies,
then, becomes important because
it is a study of a particular peo-
ple which aids in the study of
humanity as a whole.
Black Studies is an important
contribution to humanity Ts self-
understanding, because Blacks,
African people, are the fathers
and mothers of both humanity
and human civilization. Thus, to
omit a study of the parent people
of humanity is to deprive oneself
and humanity of a holistic and ef-
fective understanding of itself.
