ALF MOON BAY. Calif. -Homework is unjust. takes too long and
puts an unbearable strain on family
life - that's not the grumbling of an tighth
grader. but the battle cry of a school board
official.
"It's inherently unfair. and I think \\Ie
c;hould abolish it." Cabrillo Unified School
District trustee Garren Redmond said Thursday.
He's made a proposal to do just that. It
comes up Oct. 27 before the five-member
sr.hool board, which serves 3,500 students in
a district s~tching along 15 miles of coastline south of San Fr.mcisco.
The issue has caused a stir in the Bay
Area, with a surprising number of educators
saying Redmond has a point.
TIle inequity, Redmond said. begins as
!ioon as a student leaves the school.
"We have students who can tap into the
Internet and CD-ROMs in their own bedroom. and have a vast array of infonnation
at their fingertips," he said. "But the unfortunate people who live in hovels with the
entire family sharing one or two rooms how is that kid supposed to do his homeworlc?"
Yet they're graded the same. he notes.
Children also don't have the same time to
do the work, he notes. While one may live
five minutes from the shool, another may
spend an hour and a quarter on a bumpy
school bus.
Even when they arrive, some students,
especially those from lower income fainilies. have chores they must do to keep the
household functioning.
Then there is the buzz word of the 199Os.
family values.
"Homework litemlly does interfere with
family afTairs,"said Redmond. "When the
kids get home, off they go to their rooms to
do homework. and it can amount to five or
six hours. Goodbye to any time to spend with
their parents."
.
School Board President Ken Jones said he
expects to vote against abolition next week.
But the issue is troublesome, he said. and he
might favor it at a later date.
District Superintendent Jane Martin cautioned Thursday that homework has an
essential role in educating children.

NIVERSALCITV, Calif.
(AP) - I'roduct:rs of
"Mighty Morphin Power
Rangers" prJised a Scandinavian
broadcaster on 'nmrsday for reinstating the hit children's TV show
after finding no link between it
and the death of,n youngster.
The Scandinavian network that
broadcasts the show, TV-3, took
"Power Rangers" and several
other children's shows off the air
untillhe circumstances sUIT0l!nding the death could be det~r
mined, said Ricky Ghal. program
director of TV -3, in a news
release issued jointly by the
bro..;Icaster and Saban Entertainment, the Burbank company that
distributes "Power Rangers."
'''Mighty Morphin Power
Rangers' will return to the
screens later this year, as no
direct linkage exists between the
program and this tragic incident,"
Ghal said.
TIle "Mighty Morphin Power
Rangers" TV show, the No. 1rated children's TV show in the
United States. was taken off the
air in Norway. Sweden and Denmark after a young Norway girl's
brutal killing.
The show wasn't directl)
linked to the death of 5-year-old
Silje Marie Redergard, who froze
10 death Saturday on a play-
6.
Dang said that demand has
been tremendous in the 65 cities
that two tour companies will visit
before taking the show abroad.
He said the show producers sct
it up to incorporate rock
pyrotechnics nf the kind thai
modern parents arc used to atliw
concerts.
"Most of the producers wc talk

exican protesters a
t was quite a scene :ltthe border lasl lllUrsdny as 300
demonstrators, most of them university students, urged
motorists not to cross into the United States and patronize U.S. businesses. The protesters were denouncing
Proposition 187 - the hallot initiative which would deny
non-emergency heallh care and education to illegal immigrants - and protesting other recent measures affecting illegal immigrants. The protesters passed out leallets and held
up banners. most of which called Gov. Pete Wilson 1\ racist.
According to Tire San Diego Unioll-Tribune (Oct. 12).
Felipe de Jesus Equihua Santana. a former Tijuana city
tren~urcr and lender of "Opemtion Dignity." said that the
boycott is ...... the only way that civil society hns of showing its rejection and concern toward attitudes hannful to
Mex:icans." He went on to say thnl the demonstrators were
llsking people not to cross the border last Wednesday for
the sake of their own dignity.
"We're going to show that Latino labor in California and
the money we spend in California arc important. We are
not against the (U.S.) government or the American businefS community nor against Americans in general. We arc
against the racism amI the attitudes of the governor of California toward Mex:icans and undocuQlented (immigrants)."
ta
ng group
For example, the boycott of table grapes. headed by Cesar
Chavez. addressed the problem of underpaid migrant
workerli by boycotting one of the key p:-<Jducts in the situation. Likewise, the Montgomery, Alabama Bus Boycott
worked to undo segregation laws because it targeted the
organization accountable.
Unfortunately. Operation Dignity does not boycott a
prime constituent in the debate over Proposition 187. The
small businesses that the demonstrators have chosen to
boycott are most likely against the proposition.
We agree with Mario Herrera. a political science professor at the Autonomous University of Baja California.
who said in TIll' San Diego Ullioll-Tribune (Oct. 12): "The
boycott doesn' t resol ve any problems; on the contrary, it
just makes it WOrlie. It creates tensions by involving sectors that have nothing to do with this conflict."
The participants of "Operation Dignity" should rethink
their plan of opposition. There arc otha forms of protest.
rather than a boycott of innocent local businesses. that
Ylould be far more effective in combatting Proposition 187.
For example. a sit-in at the state capitol in Sacramento or
at strategic government offices would send a compelling
visllal message to lawmakers. Demonstrators who locate
and oppose the root of a problem bring about the swiftest
change.

I
Unfortunately. I used to have the mentality that so many of us still have today about
interracial couples. Being a black woman. [
used to think that the black men and women
involved in these relationships were "sellouts," and that black men did not see my skin
as beautiful. [also thought that white women
were taking our black men away. and that
white mllies were only interested in sexual
relationships with black women.
These perceptions may be true in some
cases. hut they certainly do not apply to all
interracial couples. We must stop generalizing. I no longer have these perceptions
because I finally realized that although it is
wonderful !O be proud of one's racial heritage. it is even llIore important to sec myself
and others as individuals. The next time you
feel the urge to call someone a "sellout" or
usc ,IllY derogatory racial slurs. please
remember that you are contributing to these

Hope is about all Andy Dufresne (Tim

He was sent to prison after being convicted
