...this far, the Justices across the board seemed plainly supportive of some race-based solutions. Powell wrote that "in order to remedy the effects of prior discrimination, it may be necessary to take race into account." That could mean, he added, that "innocent persons may be called upon to bear some of the burden of the remedy...
When Joseph Papp, the nation's leading impresario of serious drama, decided to produce Cuba and His Teddy Bear at New York City's Public Theater, stage veterans gaped at the good fortune of Playwright Reinaldo Povod, 26. A product of Manhattan's turbulent Lower East Side, Povod had never before even written a full-length play. Envy turned to astonishment when Papp announced the show would star Oscar Winner Robert De Niro in his first stage effort since 1970's One Night Stands of a Noisy Passenger.

Donahue's cartoon, for the benefit of those who missed it, portrays a chagrined bear (emblazoned with a hammer and sickle) losing his fur while a nuclear power plant explodes in the backround. Viewing the Chernobyl disaster simply as a political embarassment to the Soviet government, rather than as a human tragedy, is repugnant. Whatever one's opinion of the Soviet government, it is incumbent upon us to sympathize with the Russian and Ukrainian peoples...
