The accident occurred
when one bus had to slam
on its brakes quickly when
approaching an eighteen-

“Thank goodness for
the guardrail that was

Children
turned into
soldiers

Guns, drugs and death: Youth
recruited in unstable regions

by Emily Rigdon

commsutmc wniitn

An estimated aooooo children around the
world are being used to fight in conflicts. most of
them against their will. l'K human rights ac
tivists say.

"These children are often orphans. and they
are basically handed an AK-«l? and forced to kill.”
said Dr. Peter Little. I‘K anthropology professor.

UK‘s Amnesty International chapter is rais-
ing its voice about this issue. This evening at
7:30. they are showing an award-winning docu-
mentary. (‘hi'ld Soldier in the Whitehall (‘lass-
room Building The film chronicles the use of
child soldiers in Uganda.

The film viewing is part of an international
campaign to end the use of
child soldiers. “We want to
raise awareness about this
tragic situation on cam-
pus." Erik Hungerbuehler.
electrical engineering
freshman and Amnesty
member said.

Conflict in their native
lands produces displaced
children and orphans
when parents are lost and

...they
are
basically
handed

killed. Little said. These an AK-47
children are then kid

napped. shown violent and
films and addicted to

drugs. Then. they are only forced to
given drugs ifthey ﬁght. - 9’

“It's appalling what klll

they do to these children."

said Amy Shelton. presi- _ -
dent of UK's Amnesty In Ugréntﬁggﬂt'
ternational chapter. “Chil- professor

dren are forced to kill oth-
er children; almost 100 per-
cent of the captured fe-
males havc sexually trans»
mitted diseases from the adult commanders."

Those who try to escape are tortured or
killed. Those that do escape are not always ac-
cepted back into their homes, The officers take
revenge on the families of the escaped. Shelton
said.

Like anyone who experiences trauma. child
soldiers are sure to suffer adverse psychological
affects later on. said Dr. Tom Widiger, a UK psy-
chology professor.

“In order to deal with trauma. some children
develop the ability to detach themselves from the
traumatizing situation. as a defense mechanism
or coping strategy." he said. “A reliance upon
this coping strategy can obviously lead to many
later problems in life. such as depression. altered
emotions. nightmares."

Amnesty members are putting together a
brochure about the campaign. passing around
petitions and writing letters to governments.

“As students and young adults in America.
it's important for us to get involved with the
Child Soldier action because the fundamental
rights of children all over the world to peace. ed- f
ucation. and childhood innocence are being VlOr
lated." said Ryan IaFoilette. Kentucky‘s student
area coordinator for Amnesty lntemational.

TEZIUTLAN Mexico - More than 300 people are
known to have died in Mexico‘ s mudslid1 s and

are still missing By yesterdaV morning. 1'escu1

N. Korea denounces US missile test

SEOUL. South Korea 1 North Korea denounced
the United States yesterday for testing a defense
missile system over the Pacific. and vowed to
build up its own defense capabilities. “This (the
test) shows that the US. policy to stiﬂe North K11-
rea has not in the least changed." said 11 commen-
tary in a newspaper for the ruling Workers‘ Par-
ty. The US. Air Force earlier this month
launched an unarmed missile and destroyed it
with an interceptor rocket over the Paciﬁc in its
first test of a proposed missile defense system.
North Korea rattled nerves in Asia last year
when it test-fired a longrange missile over
Japan.

Chechnya peace plan proposed

GROZNY. Russia (‘hechnya's leader outlined a
peace plan yesterday to end the fighting in his
breakaway republic. and promised to crack down
on renegade warlords if Russia withdraws its
troops from Chechen territory. Chechen Presi
(lent Asian Maskhadov called on Russia to imme
diately end “111] combat actions." and said the
two sides should observe the basic principles of a
1997 peace accord that ended the 1994-96 Chechen
war. Maskhadov‘s plan appears unlikely to make
much headway with the Russians.

Play is unsettling

The content of Desegrega-
[ion requires examination from
two perspectives. The ﬁrst. and
probably most important. is
that of a political and historical
expression of racism. in that
light. the play is insightful.
provocative and right on.

Farrell’s script plays out
key issues of America's race de<

bate in the friendly confines of

the Briggs Theater to examine
several themes of racism on col-
lege campuses. These are the
unspoken words. the conversa-
tions never begun. and the
wounds never bandaged.
Asking far more questions
than it attempts to answer. De-
segregation is both an indict-
ment of our history and an in-
sight into our present. In this
sense the work is exemplary
a frustrating. unsettling. even
frightening picture of Ameri-
ca‘s historical racial division.
As a piece of theater it does
not fare as well. The production
is too long. It is not the running
time of three hours. but rather
the lengthy scenes in the first
act which involve little or no
action. The unique opening mo-
ments quickly give way to
pages of historical facts and te-
dious character exposition.
Farrell‘s script falls well

of the characters onstage. al-
though this is clearly the intent.

Despite some strong choices
made by the actors. Farrell‘s
characters are little more than
stereotypes. Chuck is the loud-
mouthed racist in denial. Jan is

JAMES cntsei crime. Sim

Despite some gripping moments, UK’s Desegregation ends up being its own exercise in stereotypes.

Felicity is the airhead
Christian zealot who eventually
ﬁnds compassion and tolerance.
Obatala is the defiant young
black woman who eventually
ﬁnds compassion and tolerance.
Did i mention that Chuck and
Jan eventually ﬁnd compassion
and tolerance?

If the character develop
ment suffers from predictabili-
ty and stereotyping. the plot
suffers from just the opposite.

and quartered.

Farrell uses many of the
age-worn gimmicks of a “play
within a play." Breaking the
proscenium barrier. toying
with lighting and sound cues.
and even offstage hollering by

one. The gimmicks here are
nothing more. Generally. they
lack subtlety and serve to disas-
sociate the audience members
from the production rather
than draw them in.
