Lawrence Sullivan, research associate with the John T. Fairbank Center for East Asian Research, said the chaos in China may reawaken the country's dormant xenophobia. "Just because we establish relations with China doesn't mean it disappears," he said, adding that in times of crisis China often tries to close off its society from contact with the outside world...
Pascali's Island is a film destined to remind people of this and more about the Ottomans. And although it may serve as a history lesson to some, it will also reawaken old stereotypes about Turks, about their greed, their savagery and their pettiness. Written and directed by James Dearden (who also wrote the screenplay for last year's sleeper, Fatal Attraction), Pascali's Island is a different kind of empire film.

At times she stumbles over her lines, not from nervousness but rather from rushing them a bit too much. All the same, we sympathize with her character's submersion in Brick's passionless, greedy family...
With Washington's victory, hopes were raised for a Mel King victory in Boston. Momentum at Harvard for King began last February at a Black Students' Association (BSA) conference during Malcolm X weekend. At the conference, a challenge was made to reawaken student social activism, especially in the Black community. Cynthia Silva, chairperson of the Seymour Society, explains that one theme that has been used at Harvard is the responsibility Black students have to the Black community. Students at Harvard have enormous class privileges. Black students at Harvard on the whole have these class privileges because the Black Community pulled...
