of living that they don’t want
them to follow and con-
vincing them that they are
not up to much.

Then, after the children
are grown and out on their
own, my family (bless them!)
now has the time to organize
and take part in protests in
Opposition to the things they
have taught the kids to do
and be.

This weird family of mine,
just like yours, has branches
right in Victoria and Ottawa.
‘They live in the States and
Japan and Russia and
Ireland and San Salvador.
Some of them are black,
some yellow, some _ pink.
They are Communists and

Christians and Jews and
atheists. They are
millionaires and wrestlers

and priests and hookers and
bakers and_ candle-stick
makers. They are rotters and
they are loving and beautiful
and creative and com-
passionate and concerned
and self-giving. They are all
members of the universal
family of human beings.

One of the things my
weird family needs ts for
more and more millions of us

Indian crafts on show

THE INDIAN Arts & Crafts
Society of B.C. will hold
their Annual Trade Show on
July 22 and 23 at the Hyatt
Regency Hotel in Van
couver. The Trade Show
provides a unique opportun-
ty for the general public to
view and purchase a vanety
of arts and crafts directly
from the B.C. native Indian
artists and artisans who pro-
duced them. Items on
display and for sale will in-
clude: wood = carvings,
jewelery, pmanats, paintings,
leather/ beadwork, weav-
ings, knitting, etc. There will
also be demonstrations in
various mediums. The Trade
Show is the highlight of the
Society’s year and this year it
promises to be the best ever!
The Show will be open to the
public from 12 00 (noon) to

and from 10 00 am to 5:00
pm on Saturday, July 23

to trust.

Let's quit teaching the kids
they are inadequate; (“Boy,
are you stupid!) that they
are failures if they don't win
the three-legged race; (“Go

out there and WIN
Melissa!’’) that the best
things in life are things:

(“There’s rich and poor and
believe me boy, rich is
better. Make sure you get
yours!”) that our neighbors,
especially if they are ‘dif-
ferent, need to be guarded
against and kept in their
place; (“Don't get too
friendly. Give them an inch
and they'll take over!”)
These days there are
millions of protesters against
many of the actions that we
are STILL teaching our kids
to emulate. But the
protesting is powerful.
Perhaps it will help nourish
within us the desire and the
choice to live at the growing
edge. THE BIRTH OF A
