Oxendine, Dean of Temple University’s College of Health and Physical Education, called for Indians and other groups to work for cultural pluralism in a keynote address delivered at the School of Education's Expo '77 at Boston University earlier this month. The alternative approaches, he added, are assimilation or separatism. "Following many years of Indians Wars," Oxendine said, "the U.S. Government established a policy for assimilating American Indians. The white society agreed to be kind to American Indians, and even marry them”--except in his home state, where mixed marriages were prohibited, he added. began with the early missionary schools’ attempt to "Christianize” the Indians, continues today, he said. He told of a group of Chippewa Indians who were required, as part of a Bicentennial activity at their school, to write an essay on "Why We’re Glad the Pilgrims Landed at Plymouth Rock." "Of course, their parents wished it had been the other way around-that Plymouth Rock had landed on the Pilgrims," Oxendine commented wryly. in 1959, "I wonder if the white man can ever understand how great an inferiority complex the average minority member has, and how easy it is to crush his personality in the tender years,” Oxendine said. He said it was not until he was in college that he realized _ "how many dull souls frequent the white man’s ranks.” Oxendine, a respected authority on physical education, grew up in a poor, segregated section of Pembroke, North Carolina. As a boy he and his neighbors were prohibited from frequenting “white” stores and were relegated to thei balcony in the local movie theater, "Cultural pluralism," he said, “supports ethnic character. Simultaneously, it strengthens the larger community by fostering mutual appreciation and understanding, cooperation in economic and civic institutions, and the peaceful coexistence of life styles, folkways, languages, religious beliefs and family structures." Assimilation seemed to be working. Theonemillionindians estimated to have been living in America when Columbus arrived had fallen to 240.000 by 1900, “It was thoght the assimilation process would be completed within a few years, and only a few ‘real’ Indians would remain as a cultural curiosity," Oxendine continued. However, he added, “The Indians population grew, andnowit’s as large as it was four or five centuries ago. He noted that some American Indian leaders, as well as leaders of other cultural groups, have encouraged isolationism. “I believe, however," he said, “ that striving for ‘ethnic purity’ through isolationism is not only destructive to society at large, but is self-defeating." The subtle put-downs continue, he added, noting that "A book used in a California elementary school is dedicated to "All children who like Indians and animals” And a series of books published by the National Geographic Society is composed of "Spiders," "Cats.” "Creepy Crawly Things” and "Indians,” Page 3, The Carolina Indian Voice Awards Day Program Held at PSHS Left to light Mlcheol Bryant, Droyboy.

Union Chapel Day Core Center Birthdays Observed The Union Chapel Day Care Center has hosted four birthday parties this month. Oh, Boy! Looks like its going to be a partying month. The ones celebrating birthdays were: Jackie Lynette Cummings, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry M. Cummings; Amy Leance Oxendine, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Oxendine; Willie Von Lowry, son of Ms. Barbara Lowry; and Monica Locklear, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Locklear. Refreshments were enjoyed by all the children at the Day Care Center, Indians’ contribution to the white settlers included medicines, com, potatoes, and most of the other vegetables we eat today,” Oxendine commented. (Oxendine, a sports bluff who is currently preparing a ‘book on American Indians and sports, also added parenthetically: "To say nothing of everything needed for a ball game-peanuts, popcorn, cracker jacks, chewing gum, cigarettes, and even the ‘ mbber inside a baseball...”) Oxendine fled his home when he was 17 to work in Detroit.
