Page 12-The Chronicle, Thursday, November 12, 1981 Arthur Mitchell, founder and director of the Dance Theater of Harlem, smiles as he accepts his honorary doctorate degree in dance from the North Carolina School of the Arts. NAACP Says Klan No Aberration Dr. Beverly Cole, Direc tor of the NAACP Educa tion Programs, has taken issue with the Anti- Defamation League of B’nai B’rith’s (ADL) criticism of the National Education Association’s (NEA) declaration that the Ku Klux Klan grows out of American racism. The Klan is not an aber ration, as the ADL claims, but “the tip of the iceberg, the most visible and ob vious manifestation of the entrenched racism in our society,” reports the new curriculum being distributed by the NEA. Dr. Cole found the ADL’s criticism of this no tion “appalling.” “For the ADL to be ‘diametrically opposed’ to the notion that America is institutionally racist is to be either incredibly insensitive or incredibly naive,” says Ms. Cole. “The Kerner Commission...stated in 1968, that ‘White racism is essentially responsible for the explosive mixture which has been accumulating in our cities;..In addition, the numerous reports of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights are replete with evidence of America’s racism.” “Violence, the Ku Klux Klan and the Struggle for Equality: An Information and Instruction Kit,” the NEA publication, also states that “the violent nature of the Klan feeds on a climate of general social acceptance of racism” and it contains statistics that show the widening of social and economic gaps between blacks and whites during the past 20 years. Kenneth Bialkin, chair-, man of the ADL’s National Executive Committee said Ms. Cole responded, “It serves no useful purpose for Americans to adopt self- righteous and defensive views about its problems. The psychological games of self-deception will not solve anything.” The NEA curriculum was prepared by the Council on Interracial Books for Children in consultation with the NEA’s Department of Instruction and Profes sional Development and a special task force of the Connecticut Education Association.

Islamic Education Views, Part II By Judy Rashid Special To The Chronicle Man should be encouraged to seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave. Unlike most things, “the bigger the mind grows, the lighter it gets;” the smaller it is, the heavier the burden is.” Therefore, having the knowledge of something makes our minds big and serves as light in our lives; wherein being ignorant without facts makes us small in our thinking and places extreme pressure on our understanding. When the desire to learn stops, a slow death of the mind creeps in. The common expression for this state of the mind is “the living dead”. Scripture tells us, in relat ing to the quest of know ledge, that “Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.” This passage is very profound indeed. The best freedom is offer ed through the acquisition of knowledge. Ignorance no longer haunts you into superstition, suspicion and suspense.
