"When a native person talks about social change he talks 17, 1972 op< TELEVISION "15 social change one and the same as political change?" ask- ed the moderator. “In the broadest sense i find it, hard to differentiate." said Quiggan “The work I do is an attempt to get wider distrib- ution of power in areas where I work. The church must act as the conscience of human- ity. It must speak out and act now. To have the rights of all individuals recognized the church has an important role to play." "This is a common dilemma for people in political offices,” said Mrs. Nelson, “You have a proxy from your constituents and they eXpect you to have some function of leadership Achieving a balance is the problem." “The politician has been elected to represent the peo- ple." added McCue‘ “and he has been given the right to gov- ern and thereby to lead. Gov- ernments have to be prepared to give direction and to take in- itiative." Mrs. Nelson advised the more than 200 people in the audience that if they were in- terested in effecting social change they should get active in politics. Referring back to Mrs. Nelson's belief that the greatest hope for social change lies with the educa- tion of children, Spraggett asked. “Where does brain washing come in? To what extent dbes the teacher ex- press her own values?" “Everything you do sells your own values." Mrs. Nelson said. "A teacher's major role should be as an exemplar. We push our values without ever think- ing about it. However. a tea- cher has to be honest. She has “What. we need is some means by which a person who has the power of office can be kept honest.“ said Quiggan. A member of the audience questioned the advisability of an "open" Sunday. "I know a number of people who have managed to conserve their reâ€" ligious life and they do this in the midst of a society which violates their Sabbath." said Mrs. Nelson. 7 7"71f7your own beliefs are well Munded. you will be able to do if office can be He shocked his audience by3 id Quiggan. ‘revealing that approximately} * * ‘97% of Indian children are fail-l f the audienceiing to get past grade 11. “Andi advisability ofrthat is an improvement!

"My instincts are for a closed Sunday as Saturday is closed for an orthodox Jew. However. I'm afraid it is a 1ux~ ury we may not be able to afford for too long." I “Do we have a functioning democracy at the municipal, provincial and federal level?" was another question from the floor. “Democracy is a very loose, imperfect and inefficient insti- tution at present," Danson re- plied. “We are trying to find better ways. The elected rep- resentative is responsible not only to the people but to him- self." “Try it." was Danson's advice. “It works. Poli- ticians are. very sensitive. especially in election years. Another member of lhe aud- ience wanted to know, “Is there} no room left for the individual to take action toward social change?" “If you are a candidale in an election. you will find that it is the individuals who cast the votes." Mrs. Nelson replied. She also referred to the sucâ€" cessful fight by individuals to have the Spadina Expressway abandoned. 5 "The realization that the re-[ sponsibility of parents doesn't end with production of the‘l ichild," replied Mrs. Nelsoni l“The educational system wiliil have to involve the parents? their ideas, talents and time. lti must teach children how to re- trieve information to read. write and type and teach themi the skills of social interaction‘ ‘in conversation and smallt group activity. Above all it‘ must start being honest," shei 1said. 'i “Social change has got to the point where it, is occurring without anyone spurring it. on. How can we retain our identity? How do I livewith change. how do I adapt, to it?” a member of the audience wanted to know. “Change has accelerated and man hasn‘t been able to keep up. You have to have a comâ€" munity of interest, a group with which you can identify," advised Mrs. Nelson. “The danger is that because of mobility people will be afraid of making a commitment to any relationship." warned Quiggan. McCue said, “Once the indi- Vidual and the community try to come to grips realistically with this problem of unregulat- ed social change. it may be solved. We believe that the North American people have to return to a tribal society by trying to create an impression on factors and variables which act on us from outside." “What particular education, philosophical and progressive changes would you like to see?" asked another person from the floor. Again speaking for the native people. McCue agreed th at proper education will be the greatest agent of social change. “People telling us how to he- come educated. and for what. has failed dreadfully" The meeting adjohrned to the church parlors for coffee and each panelist was surrounded by a group of people discussing further the questions raised during the formal session. “Is a letter or a phone call going to do much?" asked Spraggett. emLmu-tunm RAMER FUELS 189 CENTRE ST.
