...Counter in Stockholm in 1978 at a Press Conference for Alex Haley and on a few other occasions. I sent him an invitation because the films have ethnomedical and health aspects.

I did not have any "companion" and I did not know of any "German" in the audience...
Amnesty International is having some success in liberating victims of torture by releasing visual material of atrocities. The pathological activities of Ku Klux Klan against black people has been documented in films and "explicit photographic materials." (Alex Haley's TV Series "Roots" also shows violence against women.)

Untrained, with only a high school education, she was stunned when the $1,100 city property tax bill arrived...
...Mary Haley managed to get a part-time job (20 hours a week) answering the telephone for the crisis-intervention support unit at $4.80 an hour. Her total annual income: $5,400 plus $3,000 in child support from her ex-husband. How to erase that tax bill? "The in-kind program was my only hope." She was hired at $4.30 an hour to do clerical and case work for Hartford's juvenile crime prevention center. In her cramped, cluttered office -a stainless steel desk, two telephones, unvacuumed carpet, small white teapot, a naked light fixture overhead, with...
