The group is the Health Education Planning Committee and was established in response to a felt need for interdependence of residents and agencies in planning health activities for Rougemont & Bahama and Bragtown. The committee began planning activities for the year Rougemont Bahama whose when it met Monday (January neighbors seek health care 26), at the Nello Teer House, information from them my Were joined for this meeting be the advisory boards of the health clinics in each area (satellite clinics of Lincoln Community Health Center) and CHEP staff.

Edited by Leo Hamalian and Frederick R. Karl, the selections of this anthology are by and about a segment of U. S. society that torn prises "isjo or 'more of our total' population - the oppressed, the afflicted, the dispossessed - those whose misfortune or life style has nothing to do with their sex, race or religion. Such noted contributors as Eldridge Cleaver, Jessica Mitford, George Jackson and Thomas Cottle show the Fourth World from within and without. Those within are the imprisoned, the elderly, the sick and the oppressed. Those without are fortunate enough to have been born outside of it. The reader sees that the ' Fourth World" exists outside national politics, that it is a sub-nation within a larger nation and an invisible people because we choose not to see them. For such people, America is not a civilization but a jungle. criminology, psychology and civics has been called "A potent idea embodied in a stirring book.
