Uppermost on her agenda, >he says, is defeating Ronald Reagan. "Right now, I'm the Communist Party's vice presidential candidate and h^ve been very involved in the effort to see that Reagan is defeated," said Davis recently during a break at a conference on black women she participated in at Bennett College.

I do not believe this is true. a Many children can recite the words to the songs they hear better than they can say their multiplication tables and parents should face up to the fact that they are leiciving very explicit? sexual messages - far more explicit, 1 am sorry to say, than they are getting from their parents.

Reaganomics has made a qualitative difference: it has destroyed the lives of million for the profit of the few. But the most profound impact of Reagan's re-election will be ex ' /perienced across Africa and the Third World. Reagan's detente with apartheid quite literally is murdering thousands of Africans annually. Under Reagan, U.S. exports to South Africa have increased by $1 billion. Namibian independence talks have stalled; Mozambique and Angola have been fprced to negotiate at gunpoint. Repression of ANC and PAC dissidents has escalated with Reagan's blessings.

Now, it's extremely important in these last few days ... that everyone participate in getting the vote out so that, if there's a possibility of defeating Reagan, we can. And 1 think ? there is a real possibility." Although Davis said she is preaching against Reagan, she is not preaching for Mondale. "It ic covin O UAto frtr ><? / ?"iv iui iviuiiuaic and Fcrraro but not for the sake of voting for them," said Davis.

The songs they listen to are a starting point. "Why do you like that song?" "What do you think the lyrics mean?" "Do you agree?" "Would you speak to or treat someone you care about the way the singer sings about his or her Mover'?" Then we must share with our children how we feel. Children often don't think their parents have feelings about sex, aside from the opinion that their children shouldn't have any. We have to be able to discuss the^ feelings, confusions and frustrations involved in developing sexual values in a society that iiiiiiiiiiiii 'age A4 MNNMUNNINaiMMNNNUIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII will invade Nicaragua if Reagan's re-elected? We must continue to criticize Mondale. The difference between Mondale and Reagan may only be of degree. But frequently ~ in South Africa and in U.S. ghettoes - even a degree of difference can mean victory or defeat. Boycotting the 1984 presidential election may sound 44radical,M but it is exactly what the Reaganites want us to do. For southern Africa, Nicaragua, welfare mothers and blue-collar workers, Reagan's reelection may mean life or death.

"We have registered thousands and thousands of people all over this country. Some will vote for us ... but by and large they will vote for Mondale and Ferraro." The success of today's struggles, said Davis, depends on different groups coming together and gaining from each other's strength -- a movement, said Davis, that will be an extension of what Jackson called the Rainbow Coalition. < "i "The Rainbow Coalition was possible for black people and other minorities to get together and realize what can occur in the miiuiiiimmmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiMiiiiitmiiiiiiiiii IIIIIIIIIIIMIItllllllllMllllllllllltlllllllltlltlllllllllllllllli sometimes seems to say there are no rights and wrongs.

And an organization like the Rainbow Coalition can become a third political party, a party that will meet the needs of the people not being met by the present two parties, said Davis. "1 think we do need a third party," she said. "The Democratic Party is not going to oe a people's party. 1 think we are going to have to build & people's party." ' And with the enthusiasm of today's young people -- enthusiasm that was tapped by the Jackson campaign, Davis said -- she sees the emergence of a third party. "There is a real enthusiam among young people," she said. "Black and white working class t people realize the problems but there is a lack of organization. "The present level of organiza- tion does not coincide with what we desire to see. Buses and carpools from every church should be helping to get the vote out.
