This is a mighty challenge for someone who has spent most of her life in the wings of politics rather than at center stage.

The sounds are fed into a bank of computer-synthesizers, which alter and transform them according to a predetermined program and project them out again through loudspeakers hung over and around...

...DATE, DIVESTMENT activists on various campuses have shown little if any solidarity. Why has Harvard's Southern Africa Solidarity Committee not organized a demonstration in support of the 20 students recently arrested in Hanover for trying to prevent the demolition of a shanty? At the very least, the Harvard divestment movement should have publicly expressed its outrage at the midnight raid on the Dartmouth shanties last month.
