...suppress a protest by thousands of lawyers in Pakistan's largest cities, opposition leader Benazir Bhutto spoke to TIME about the imposition of martial law by President Pervez Musharraf. She said that Musharraf was falling under the sway of the more radical parts of his Pakistan Muslim League (Q) (PML-Q) party. Still, she said she was not shutting the door on negotiations with Musharraf. Bhutto, who leads the huge People's Party, has not asked her millions of fervent followers to come out into the streets. During the interview, she evinced some sympathy for Musharraf over his feud with...

Observers point out that...
...Moynihan report, I think, did not get a fair hearing. For that reason, we organized this conference today,” said Douglass S. Massey, president of the AAPSS. Massey organized the event with Sociology Department Chair Robert J. Sampson. The evening began with speaker James Q. Wilson, a former Harvard professor and Moynihan’s close friend, who said the deceased politician never assigned blame to individuals for the often high rates of poverty, unemployment, and incarceration in the black community. Instead, Moynihan saw slavery and persisting discrimination as the main culprits, Wilson said. Geyser University Professor William...
