"Disturbing the Peace: Challenging U.S. Policy in Latin America"
Fr. Roy Bourgeois
Monday, September 8, 2008
7:30 p.m. Ford Life Sciences Building, Room 113

This event is co-sponsored with Michigan Coalition for Human Rights, National Peace with Justice Priorities Center, Gesu Parish Peace and Justice Team, and the Jesuit Province of Detroit.

Fr. Roy Bourgeois, a Maryknoll missionary who has led the campaign to close the US Army School of the Americas (now WHINSEC) will talk about his ongoing project to close the school. He and others concerned about human rights have wanted to close the school because of its role in training Latin American troops in counter-insurgency warfare, and the connections between its graduates and human rights abuses in the Americas. Particularly, those involved in the murder of the six Jesuits, their housekeeper and her daughter at the University of Central America in El Salvador had been trained at the SOA. Those who come to the talk can learn about the trip our university plans yearly, to attend the protest and prayer vigil that happens each November.

"Los estudiantes contra los gorilas: Militarization in 1968"
Elaine Carey, St. John's University Friday
September 19, 2008
10 a.m. Student Center, Fountain Lounge

"The Role of Women in Mexico - U.S. Drug Trafficking: The Case of Lola La Chata"
Elaine Carey, St. John's University
September 19, 2008
3 p.m., Lansing-Reilly Parlor

Description of talk: The recent militarization of Mexico emerged due to the debt crisis, drug trafficking, political instability, and escalating crime. Most policy studies focus on the post-1982 debt crisis and the onset of neo-liberal policies as triggers to increase in insecurity. However, the contemporary roots of militarization are tied to the social protests of the 1950s and 1960s and the onset of the Dirty War in the 1970s. In the wake of 1968 the militarization that began on the streets of Mexico City accelerated with the purchasing of weapons and the covert training of police and military by the United States for the purpose of fighting guerillas and emerging drug traffickers in the northern and southern states of Mexico. In this presentation, Carey will examine student rhetoric as it foreshadows the growing militarization that would grip the country in the wake of 1968, and how students attempted to use imagery, though caustic and condescending at times, to undermine that shift. Lastly, I discuss how the Comité 68 as a leading human rights organization has continued to challenge the militarization of Mexico for the last forty years.

Second talk: The Role of Women in Mexico - U.S. Drug Trafficking: The Case of Lola La Chata Elaine Carey, St. John's University Friday, September 19, 3 pm, Lansing-Reilly Parlor This talk by Dr. Carey is co-sponsored by the Women's and Gender Studies Program.

Using evidence from both the United States and Mexico, this presentation explores the thirty year career of Lola la Chata, a female Mexican heroin peddler and trafficker, and the efforts of police, government officials, and diplomats on both sides of the border to undermine her criminal empire. By placing women within the contemporary studies of drug trafficking, La Chata complicates the masculine constructions of the history of narcotics. An examination of the evidence reveals la Chata's transnational threat and her fluidity in responding to policy shifts in Mexico, the United States, and Canada.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Currently, Elaine Carey is an Associate Professor at St. John's University in Queens, New York. Carey is a specialist in Latin American contemporary history with a particular focus on Mexico and Central America. Her research and teaching interests include Latin American social movements, human rights, and gender studies. Her book, "Plaza of Sacrifices: Gender, Power, and Terror in 1968 Mexico" (University of New Mexico Press, 2005) examines the generational and cultural clashes between youth and the government during the Mexican student movement. While teaching at UDM (1998-2002), Carey co-founded the James Guadalupe Carney Latin American Solidarity Archive (CLASA), and currently serves on its Board of Directors. She is co-editor of the Journal of Latin American Urban Studies (JLAUS).

"Bringing Torturers to Justice in Argentina"
Patricia Isasa Thursday, October 9, 2008
7 p.m. Ford Life Sciences Building, Room 113
This event is co-sponsored with Michigan Coalition for Human Rights

At the time of her kidnapping in July of 1976, Patricia Isasa was a 16 year old High School Student in the province of Santa Fe in Argentina. She was taken by a commando group of the state police and was "disappeared" (held clandestinely) for three months. She was tortured for three days. She was then taken to a military barracks, where she was held prisoner without trial or due process for two years and two months. After her release in 1979, she was kidnapped again by the authorities when she was compiling complaints to be presented to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights of the Organization of American States, which was about to visit Argentina. She was released after a few days. After her ordeal, she graduated from the school of architecture and moved to London. In 1984, with the return of democracy to Argentina, Isasa was able to testify to the National Commission on the Disappearance of People, CONADEP. In 1997 she realized then that it had been 20 years and justice had not been done. She decided to do it herself, initiating an investigation into her kidnappers' identities. In 1997 more than two thousand documents demonstrating the culpability of the nation's repressors were discovered. Isasa researched her personal case and found the names, charges, internal confessions, extermination orders, kidnapping orders, etc. of nine of her repressors. She also gathered evidence which proved which three concentration camps she had been held and those responsible for her detention at each of them.

Thanks to her relentless research, today 8 people are in jail and awaiting trial. Among them there are an ex-federal judge, an ex-assistant secretary for security of Santa Fe, and several ex-policemen (one of them a graduate of the School of the Americas). Isasa and the judges involved in her case have received death threats, so Isasa is under a witness protection program. One other witness, Julio Lopez, has been disappeared since September 2006. Now she speaks out about the connections between her torturers and the training at the SOA. Come hear the story of this brave woman who has dared to expose her country's past crimes and seek justice for the victims.

Isasa will also speak at the UDM Law School on Tuesday, October 14, from 5-6 p.m. (Details to be announced).

You can go to the Democracy Now website and watch a video where she describes her experience.

Liberation and Sacred Texts: What 'The Great Debaters' Can Teach Us about the Ideals of the Civil Rights Movement
Greg Moses, St. Edward's University, Austin, TX
Thurs. Oct. 23, 2008
11:20 a.m., Student Center, Fountain Lounge
This event is co-sponsored by the African American Studies Program

Denzel Washington's film 'The Great Debaters' revives our imagination of what it is like to dream of justice while developing a discipline that will make it real. In a pivotal dramatic confrontation between the characters played by Denzel Washington and Forest Whitaker, we get a glimpse of the ideas that were being developed in the scholarship of J. Leonard Farmer. As the characters spar over the ideal of Jesus, we see how a generation's research into the liberation of ancient Palestine was shaping the motivations of a powerful Civil Rights movement in America.

Tuesday, April 8, 7:30 p.m.

Bart Jones
(Newsday reporter, Chavez biographer)
"Hugo Chavez: From Mud Hut to Perpetual Revolution"
Ford Life Sciences Building, Room 113

“The Chávez that emerges from [Bart] Jones’ account is neither a plaster saint nor a revolutionary tyrant. He is a master politician — democratically elected to the presidency three times — an inspired improviser, a Bolivarian nationalist and an unashamed socialist. His policies have brought him into conflict with the IMF and the World Bank, the major oil companies and the Bush White House… Bart Jones is currently a reporter for Newsday and worked for eight years in Venezuela, mainly a foreign correspondent for the Associated Press. A graduate of Fordham University, he holds a master’s degree in Social Studies from Columbia University. He has also reported for The Atlantic City Press in New Jersey, where he won awards from the Philadelphia Press Association.”

March 2008

Monday, March 24, 7 p.m.

Dr. David Kaulemu Woodstock Theological Center International Visiting Fellow. from Arrupe Jesuit College, Harare, Zimbabwe, speaks on: "The Role of Religion in Societal Transformation: The Case of Zimbabwe."
Ford Life Sciences Building, Room 113

In his talk, he will explain "how Churches and church organizations have found themselves called upon to use their traditions in Christian Social Teaching to initiate programs, activities and processes aimed at saving Zimbabwe from total collapse and to contribute to building a more humane society." While Churches in Zimbabwe were slow to address political issues, the crisis reached such proportions that churches formed an ecumenical group called the Christian Alliance who through its "Save Zimbabwe Campaign" tried to put church teachings into action. In April 2007 the Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops' Conference wrote a pastoral letter, "God Hears the Cry of the Oppressed." According to Kaulemu, churches can use ecumenical cooperation to creatively engage Zimbabwe's government to transform social structures and learn new ways of thinking, acting, and organizing.

Dr. David Kaulemu received his philosophy training at University of Zimbabwe and Oxford University, writing his Ph.D. dissertation at University of Zimbabwe on "Morality and the Construction of Social Orders in African Modernity." He was Lecturer in Philosophy (1987-2003) and then Chair of the Department of Religious Studies, Classics and Philosophy (2001-03). From 2001 to the present he has been Regional Coordinator for Eastern and Southern Africa of the African Forum for Catholic Social Teachings (AFCAST) at Arrupe Jesuit College in Harare, Zimbabwe. He is currently Woodstock Theological Center International Visiting Fellow in Washington, D.C.   He has given many presentations and published many articles on topics of Ethics, the Church's social teachings, Political Philosophy and Democracy, medical ethics, business ethics, and African philosophy. He is editor of the forthcoming volume, "The Struggles after the Struggle: Zimbabwean Philosophical Studies" (Washington D.C.: Council for Research in Values and Philosophy, 2008).

Wednesday, Jan. 30, 7 p.m.,
Catholic Studies Program event

Dean Brackley, S.J. Professor of Theology, University of Central America, speaks on: "The Challenge of the Jesuit and Catholic University Today"
Ford Life Sciences Building, Room 113

Fr. Brackley received his Ph.D in theology from the University of Chicago. He taught at Fordham University and worked in the South Bronx for a number of years. When the six Jesuits and two women were murdered at the University of Central America in El Salvador in 1989, he volunteered to take one of their places. He has been there ever since, teaching theology and working with people in the surrounding area. He has done a lot of thinking about the role of Jesuit and Catholic education in our current world. With a long-term interest in academia connecting with the real concerns of life, Fr. Brackley advocates, among other things, engaging with the life and death social issues of our time, getting beyond narrow conceptual frameworks, realizing our solidarity with all people, understanding Catholic faith in dialogue with other religions, and helping students discover their vocation to love and serve. He proposes seven “higher standards” for Jesuit and Catholic higher education.  -- Fr. Si Hendry, S.J.

Thomas Melville and George Mische
"Throgh a Glass Darkly: The U.S. Holocausts from Iran - Central America/South America -- Vietnam -- Iraq."
Ford Life Sciences Building, Room 115
Co-sponsored by University Ministry

MELVILLE AND MISCHE: Thomas Melville was a Catholic Maryknoll priest who served in Guatamala for ten years (1957-67). Like James Carney, Melville supported guerrillas who were fighting a military dictatorship in Guatemala. He then moved to Argentina where he remained until Pres. Salvador Allende was deposed by a U.S.-backed military coup. No longer with the Maryknolls, he recently published a book, "Through a Glass Darkly: The U.S. Holocaust in Central America," which chronicles U.S.-supported crimes in that region. Melville's book documents that U.S. supported terrorism resulted in the loss of over 300,000 lives since the Eisenhower administration. George Mische also worked in Latin America during the 1960s and witnessed U.S.-sponsored interference with governments. He and Melville participated in the Catonsville Nine civil disobedience action protesting the war in Vietnam in 1968. Mische now works on issues of prison reform. The two of them will characterize U.S. abuses of power over the last 60 years.

Past Events 2006-07

Last academic year (2006-07) was filled with excellent speakers addressing a wide variety of topics. In Fall 2006 we began with Hector Aristizabal performing his one act play "Nightwind" about his personal experience being tortured in Colombia.  We had excellent presentations by Mary Ann Perrone, who described her SOA Watch work in Uruguay and Argentina, and CLASA Board director Richard Stahler-Sholk on his research on the Zapatistas in Mexico. We had Gaye Moorehead RSM explain immigration law and proposed changes to the law so that our country can practice hospitality, benefit from foreign workers, and reunite families. We had Dr. Anna Brown talk about her participation in a walk across Cuba to visit the prisoners in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and speak out about their mistreatment.

In Winter 2007 we had Dr. Eric Smaw as a Martin Luther King Day speaker. He explored the topic of agape love in King's works. He also gave a talk at the UDM Law School on the U.S. opposition to the creation of an International Criminal Court. UDM's Ensemble of Praise choir opened for the King Day event. In February photojournalist Jim Harney presented his photos of the struggles of undocumented immigrants who try to get to the U.S. In March we had an art exhibit, (co-sponsored with Women's Studies) called "Women of Peru," coordinating art works from three missionary Sisters who work in Peru, Thoma Swanson OP of Chimbote, Barbara Cervenka OP of Pamplona Alta, and Terry Saetta, RSM of Chulucanas. The extensive exhibit in the Loranger Exhibition Hall succeeded in selling over $3,000 worth of art works. Those funds go back to the women of Peru through each of the Sisters organizing the exhibit. We also had excellent power point presentations from Sr. Thoma, Sr. Terry, and Sarah Shaffer and Meg Marshall. Musically, Bob Scullin S.J. serenaded us with his peace and justice songs.

Already in Fall of 2007 we have had two excellent presentations. Sr. Peggy O'Neill, who is a Sister of Charity, a theology professor at University of Central America in El Salvador, and missionary in Suchitoto, El Salvador, told us about her religious experiences in El Salvador. She also described her work setting up a center for the arts in Suchitoto. Next. Dr. Joseph Kunkel from University of Dayton spoke of his concern for peace and justice issues in El Salvador and Colombia, and related his remarks to the need to shut down the US Army School of the Americas (now called WHISC).


ONGOING PARTICIPATION IN THE YEARLY SOA/WHISC VIGIL IN FORT BENNING, GA.

Our university has gone to the SOA vigil in 2000, 2002, and 2003. University Ministry has organized the event, and CLASA has helped to publicize and to encourage students to attend the event. The former CLASA director, Dr. Elaine Carey, had many of her students attend the 2000 trip. The current CLASA director, Dr. Gail Presbey, went in 2000 and 2003, and several of her students have also gone on the trip.

The message conveyed by this yearly vigil fits in well with the dedication of Fr. Carney to solidarity with Latin Americans. Fr. James Guadalupe Carney, a Jesuit who attended our university, worked with the poor campesinos in Honduras to gain their land rights. Ultimately he lost his life in Honduras, and recent evidence points to U.S. involvement in the training of the Honduran forces who abducted and killed him. There is also recent evidence that some U.S. special forces troops were with the Honduran army when they found and captured Fr. Carney. Fr. Joe Mulligan is on the case and is trying to find out the whole story of Fr. Carney's death.

Because of the work of Fr. Roy Bourgeois and the SOA Watch, we now know more about the role of the U.S. armed forces in the training of troops around the world in counter insurgency tactics. The training at SOA/WHISC is not all of the training that goes on, but it is one active center. SOA Watch and other groups like Amnesty International have revealed the extent and breadth of not only general armed forces training, but also special forces and private company training of foreign troops, sometimes using tactics that do not uphold human rights. Our tax money pays for the increased militarization of the world and that militarization includes torture, and subjugation of civilian populations.

This work of pacification of people who want positive changes in their conditions goes directly against the work that Fr. Carney, as well as Fr. Ignatio Ellacuria and the other Jesuits at University of Central America were doing on behalf of the dispossessed. No wonder then that those Jesuits, as well as other religious and lay persons involved in the movements for change become the targets of the violence of the U.S. trained militaries. And so it fits with the mission of the Jesuits to speak out against this training, and to insist on a new kind of training one that emphasizes human rights and the dignity of each person. Even though the yearly vigil at SOA/WHISC has not yet closed down the facility, the pressure that SOA Watch has placed on the military to become accountable has resulted in some attempts at reform, as torture manuals are taken off the reading lists and some attention to human rights and democracy is paid in the curriculum. We need to increase this pressure and change the military education system even further.

Why is it important for UDM students to attend the yearly vigil? Many of them have never been to a political protest before. There are many protests, for noble causes, in Washington D.C., New York, and Chicago, where various groups vie for a platform for their message. Not all of these protestors believe in nonviolence or have a faith based conception of social change. Also, some of the larger protests are overwhelmed with pushy police forces, and the sheer scale of them is daunting. At Fort Benning you can be a bit more certain about what message is being conveyed by one's presence at the vigil. And for young people to see the thousands of people motivated to defend the human rights of others can be very inspiring. It can also help students realize that not all church goers are apathetic and apolitical. One can see the message of Jesus being applied in a concrete (although complex) situation. This means that the weekend trip to Fort Benning can be a great learning experience as well as a life changing experience.

Those UDM students interested in going on the next trip to Fort Benning for the November 19-21, 2004 protest, should contact University Ministry (313-993-1560) or CLASA Director Dr. Gail Presbey (313-993-1124). Also please consult the School of the Americas Watch website.
